I was lucky enough to enter the 12 Days of Christmas Giveaway at Ramblings of a Suburban Mom and actually won. This is the first giveaway I have won from another blog, and was so excited. I got this right before Christmas and did not have a chance to post a review on the box. I am now just getting around to it, but have already used so many of the items I received.
PopSugar Must Have December Box
PopSugar Must Have December Box theme was “the wish list you never knew you needed.” PopSugar tries to give you the Must Haves in many categories. This box received must haves for the following categories: Fashion, Home, Beauty, Food and Special Extra. The only category not included in this box was Fitness. I was pretty happy with everything in the box, especially because I won it and did not have to pay for any of it.
Information Card
Must Have Fashion:
Lulu Frost for PopSugar Bracelet ($110)-When I saw this bracelet and looked it up on lulufrost.com I thought no way is this bracelet really worth $110, but it is. The jewelry is fairly expensive on the website so I thought I would hang on to it and see if it grows on me. I just recently bought a pair of silver and gold earrings so they would match this bracelet. It has been about 6 weeks since I got this bracelet and have yet to wear it. I am still on the fence about it. If I don’t wear it before Easter I think I will trade it or pass it on.

Must Have Home:
Mixt Studio Holiday Gifting Set ($9)-Since I got this right before Christmas I was more than happy to use some of the paper to wrap presents. I really liked this paper and held off using the paper that was not very Christmas like so I could use it for other holidays (birthdays, showers, anniversaries, etc.). I loved the twine and tags that came with the paper to complete each gift.

Must Have Beauty:
Modelco Fibre Lashxtend Black Mascara ($22)-I am pretty committed to my Estee Lauder mascara, but have decided to venture out and try other mascaras. I liked this and was happy with the results. I did not get any smudges or black football eyes after wearing the mascara for a few hours. When it came time to wash it off, it was not a problem. I was happy with the mascara and have continued to use it.

Must Have Home:
Govino Go Anywhere Flutes ($12.95)-I am not much of a drinker, so these worked out great for the gift exchange we did on Christmas Eve. I liked the idea of them and that they were shatterproof (plastic). The little notch in the glasses for your thumb or finger made them easy to hold and handle.

Must Have Food:
CC Made Caramel Corn ($4)-The minute I opened this box, B dug right into the caramel corn and had it gone before the end of the night. I never heard any complaints from him so I am assuming it was good.

Must Have Beauty:
NCLA Peppermint Lane Nail Wraps ($16)-I have not tried nail wraps but have received them in other boxes and want to. Right before I got these I had trimmed my nails short and thought these would have been a waste. My nails are at a good length to try these and think I will if I can get S to go to bed early tomorrow night.

Special Extra:
Ghirardelli Squares Chocolate ($8.46)-When B saw these in the box he snatched both bags and I had to tell him to put them back. The bags of chocolate work out great as last minute unexpected gifts. I told B if we did not give these to anyone for Christmas he could have them. The Christmas Holiday Assortment ($4.98) did end up going to my aunt for Christmas. I just needed something else to add to her gift. The caramel squares ($3.48) were happily eaten by B after Christmas. I can say that this time I was able to get one of the squares before they were all gone.
