POPSUGAR Must Have Mini October 2016 Subscription Box Review

POPSUGAR Must Have Mini is a smaller version of the full-size POPSUGAR Must Have Box! Every month you’ll get full-size products up to $30 in value for $18.95 per month. Just like the full-size box the POPSUGAR Editors promise to send the best in beauty, fashion, and home to your door every month. FYI – Products do not repeat from the main box to the Mini!

Note: This box is now sold out! The website shows the November box at a decreased price – $15.95 per month, shipping included.

Three products in the October POPSUGAR Must Have Mini Box!

The Must have MINI comes with a card detailing the items inside.

Olivia Palermo X Ciate London The Cheekbone Cheat Blush Bronzer Duo ($32) This pretty blush/bronzer duo was in the TODAY Show special edition box last year.

Update: This duo is on sale at Sephora for $22.40.

It has a really chic compact that’s nice for your purse during the holiday season with a great embossed faux leather print and impressed gold lettering.

The blush and bronzer are so finely milled and go on quite sheer, allowing you to really build the color to perfection. It’s just so silky. I didn’t have any issues with this one – but the one I received in my box last year had a glue issue with the pan – just reglue and it will be fine.

Here are the swatches – it’s not overly deep, but you can add more color.

Kitsch Patch Stick ($8) If this seems familiar, it’s inspired by the fun designs on Lisa Sugar’s Power Your Happy. It’s a raised vegan leather design.

You can stick it anywhere (note, not on clothing).

There’s 3M tape on the back and it’s relatively re-stickable!

I decided to put it on my IKEA Raskog cart! I thought this was a cute tie-in with the main box.

Friendship Socks The Rockstar ($15) The last item was a nicely boxed pair of socks – ready to keep or to gift (hence, Friendship Socks!).

This sockscription allows you and your pal to both get socks – read our Friendship Socks reviews to find out more! They have multiple options allowing you to send a pair of socks to a friend or subscribe together to get socks monthly. A little card was included in the box to let you send a pair to a friend for ten bucks, although that’s also the same offer they have on the site.

I don’t wear tall socks, so I’ll gift them to my bestie, but they made an excellent sock puppet! The socks are 80% cotton, 16% nylon, 4% lycra and made in the USA. They seemed really cozy and I liked the pattern.

I really love the value of this month’s Mini box – about $55 ($44 with the Sephora sale price) – but I wasn’t crazy about the repeat. However, I think this box is absolutely perfect to subscribe to, keep what you want (in my case I already had that compact!), and regift the rest – everything in this box is perfect for that purpose. With the new lower price point it’s hard to say no to this subscription.
