Popsugar: December

I am honestly way too excited about this box!  For Christmas my parents ordered me a three month subscription of Popsugar when it was on sale around Black Friday and I am thrilled!  We got a three month subscription for $20 per box, plus a free gift!  

 For the amount of stuff in one of these boxes, I think it is definitely worth it!  

Everything in this box was so well packaged, I was very impressed!  It was lined with bubble wrap and paper, and then everything inside was in its own box/packaging or wrapped in bubble wrap!
And Happiness Delivered... too cute!

The first thing I pulled out was this Baublebar pendent.  It is a long silver necklace with a circle pendent that is half white and half silver.  It is called the Snowfall Pendent and is apparently a Popsugar exclusive!  I have been looking for a new long necklace, so this was fun to receive!  The suggested retail is $28.

This is the Sisters' Gourmet Baker's Dozen Classic Chocolate Chip Cookie Mix. This is an all in one mix including everything but the wet ingredients, but not so finely milled as the powdery mix that comes in boxes.  All you need to add is butter and an egg!  This sales for $6.99 on the Sisters' Gourmet website.

This is the Odeme Ring Dish...

And matching Catchall set!  These are things I would never really think to buy for myself, but they look gorgeous on my vanity!  Both were packaged in their boxes with bubble wrap so they wouldn't break in transit.  Together, this set retails for $67

These are the Mane Message Date Night Bobby Pins.  I have heard a lot of good things about the creaseless Mane Message hair ties, so these will be fun to try!  In pictures it shows them arranged in a pretty triangle like a single hairpiece, so maybe I will give that a shot.  These retail for $10, which I feel is expensive for three bobby pins... but maybe they are great!

This is the Winky Lux Lip Pill in the color Bunny.  It is a gorgeous color and came in the cutest packaging!  I haven't ever heard of this brand before, but I would be more than willing to try some of their other colors and products.  This retails for $14 on their website.

This is the Dessanage Professional Color Restore and Protecting Top Coat Serum.  I have used Dessanage products before, if you remember my Influenster post about them FOREVER ago, and I have really liked them, so I am super excited to try this!  I am going to have caramel highlights put in my hair next week, so I am holding off on using this until then.  But, from what I can tell this sounds like a hair oil or shine spay.  This retails for $11.99, and can probably be found at Target!

This was my free gift they were offering with the deal when I ordered!  This is the Juara Turmeric Antioxidant Radiance Mask.  According to the packaging it can be used for a short amount of time as a mask, or an an overnight treatment.  Most face masks are fun because they are crazy colors, but not so with this one.  It had a lotion color and consistency, which makes me think it would actually be pretty nice as an overnight treatment because it wouldn't stain your sheets.  According to the voids of the internet (because this one wasn't listed on the card) this retails for around $40!

And these were all of the coupons included... a 20% off for Sisters' Gourmet, Mane Message, and Baublebar.

Overall I think it was a pretty amazing box!  It retailed for about $180 including the face mask, and I got it for $20... So there are definitely no complaints in that field!  I honestly already can not wait for my next box!

My Petal Club

A new box!  And a PERIOD subscription box at that!  I love finding new boxes to try out, especially when they are this affordable!  This box is normally $6.99 per month, but if you use the discount code "SUMMER" on mypetalclub.com , this box will be only $3.50!  And let's be honest, one box of pads/tampons is usually more expensive than that, so why not give it a try?? So this box primarily consists of just the period products with very few extras.  This isn't one of the present, feel-good kind of boxes, it just provides you with the necessary products to get through the month, at an affordable price. Step One The first thing you do on their website is choose the combination of products you will need.  Be warned, you aren't given as much of a selection if you order through Cratejoy like I did.  It worked totally fine and I still got the products I needed, but I like choice!  So I suggest going straight through their website....

Be Mine... Kissable Lip Routine

I thought this was a kind of unique post, but also a great way to kick off Beach Babe's Be Maine Valentine's Day Series! I mean, you can't have a Valentines Day without soft kissable lips! Even if you don't have a Valentine this year, you don't want to be caught by surprise! ;) First thing i do (and the very first thing you all should do!) is start out by exfoliating your lips! Before I use a Lip Scrub, I run warm water over a washcloth, wring it out, and rub my lips with this. Next I take a lip scrub (if you would like to know what I use check out this link here, but any kind you prefer will work). I use the washcloth on my lips first so that they will be more open to absorb the benefits of the Scrub. Lastly, I apply some of the lip scrub to a clean toothbrush and use this on my lips. Grab the washcloth once again and wipe the scrub and crystals away! :) The next thing you should do in your kissable lips routine, is apply a lip balm. My favorites are the eos...

Apartment Tour + Fall Decor!

It's coming a bit late, because by this point I have Christmas decor up, but why not?  It isn't December yet, and I loved my fall decor and wanted to show it off! Entrance and "Dining Room" We did our best to section off the living room/dining room/kitchen area so it had a house feel that trashy college apartment.  We also tried to add all the things we could to make it feel more bright and homey since only one piece of furniture in here is actually ours!  The rest was provided for us. So for the dining are my roommate who replaced her desk chair with a comfy version brought out her chair so we could have 5 seats.  We then added cute placemats which stay out year round For fall decor I added the glittery leaf centerpiece and a few candles, as well as the wine bottles! I painted these, and though they aren't my best I still liked them!  I used twine on the top, stickers from Target around the sides, and painters tape to make the letters, and th...
