I absolutely love this! I have something similar for my traveling organization, but these are so fancy in design and I love the labels that are on the bag to let you know what goes in which bag. I can't wait to use this on my next trip!


Too Faced Cosmetics Brow Kit
Too Faced - Brow Envy Brow Shaping & Defining Kit
Value $39

This is a great little kit for brows! I like my brows to be on point, so I have a ton of tools and products for them. This kit combines all of them in one, how useful!

Closer look at the kit


It has two brow powder colors, lighter for the blondes and darker for us brunettes. Then there's a highlighter to pop them eyebrows up, and of course the setting wax to help stray hairs stay nice and tidy. I can't believe it includes tools too! The angled brush makes applying the powders precise and flawless, while the brow comb grooms and softens up the colors.

It also comes with easy-to-follow how-to guide, so helpful!

I was quite surprised to find some stencils included as well. I've used these type of stencils from another brand, and you won't (or you do) know it, it really helps you in creating the perfect brows for your face. I use them to train myself on creating the perfect shape of brow, and after awhile, I'm on auto-pilot. Great tool for brow beginners.


Kris Nations XO Earrings
Kris Nations - "XO" Stud Earrings
Value $35

The packaging is so cute and unique, it's a message in a bottle! I'm already in love with this.

They're made of recycled brass and plated with 14k gold. As you can see from the picture above, it is quite dainty and small, but I love delicate jewelry like these and it's also my style so this was perfect for me!


Briogeo Leave-in Conditioner
Briogeo - Rosarco Milk Reparative Leave-In Conditioning Creme
Full Size 150ml, Value $20

My hair can't live without leave-in conditioners. I've been getting quite a few from subscription boxes lately and have no complaints. The more the better, especially since I use them everytime I wash my hair. The scent is lovely and works great on my frizzy hair. It smoothed it out and gave it a good shine without making it oily. It's also vegan-friendly and formulated WITHOUT parabens, phthalates, silicone, gluten, synthetic fragrances and dyes. Great product!


NCLA Cuticle Oil
NCLA - So Rich Vitamin-E Enriched Cuticle Oil
Full Size 15ml, Value $18

This is a vitamin E oil treatment that promotes strong and healthy nails. You only need a drop on each nail, then massage the oil all over your cuticles, nails and fingers to get them soft and moisturized. The scent is sweet and pleasant too. I've used this twice already, at night before I go to bed, and it's fast and easy to apply so I'll surely be using this frequently.

Nourish Snacks Almond to Cherries
Nourish Snacks - Almond to Cherries
Value $2

These snacks look healthy and delish. The almonds are salty and the cherries are both sweet and sour. It's a good mix of flavor and of course a healthy snack to have when you're having the munchies or need a burst of energy.


Bonus item:

Popsugar Must Have Gift Cards
Popsugar $10 Gift Cards
Value $20

As a bonus, Popsugar sent out two $10 promo cards to give to your friends, family or co-worker to use toward their first Must Have box. Each code behind these cards are unique.

My Thoughts: I really liked the items this month, it was a good mix of products and I especially loved the earrings in those cute message bottles! Plus I got introduced to some awesome new brands which is the main reason why I subscribe to boxes in the first place. The total value came up to $156 (I didn't include the Popsugar promo cards) and that's a pretty high value. Next month's theme is "Breast Cancer Awareness, Cozy, Autumn, Restful Nights" and I can't wait to see what that brings! Checkout my review next month lovelies!
