Neiman Marcus POPSUGAR Must Have Box 2015 Review

My clock arrived chipped/broken with several pieces of the stone missing. The pieces were not in the box, so it was mailed broken; it was not broken in transit. I promptly reported the problem, and was told PS would gladly replace the clock. Well, 2 weeks later I still haven’t received the replacement, and haven’t heard another word from PS. I am disgusted with the poor customer service, especially after what I paid for this box.

I’ve also read many reviews of the Special Edition Holiday for Her box, where the bracelet was missing from the box, the candles arrived broken, the candleholders were scratched, etc. What is wrong with their quality control? Liz, because you review the boxes, I think it’s no coincidence that you receive boxes with no flawed items. The rest of us aren’t as fortunate.

Just did mani-pedi with the Deborah Lipman collection – GORGEOUS! wouldn’t imagine how great the darker color was. Perfect! And the pink w/ sparkle – adorable.

I am selling my NM Popsugar Must Have Kevyn Aucoin Look book on ebay and I also added a black and white eyeshadow and two lip pencils to sweeten up the deal! I hope one of you is looking for this palette, it will be sold in just a few days!

absolutely nothing in a popsugar box is a must have spend your money contributing to a charity you will do more good in the world with that. now waiting for this comment to be erased and or deleted

This is a great box! I did not get it simply because I couldn’t afford the $250. And I too couldn’t afford to buy such luxe items at the individual prices and sub boxes give me the opportunity to try luxury items I wouldn’t buy for myself. Am really looking forward to the must have for her!

I absolutely LOVE the NM Popsugar box, This was the only reason I got into sub boxes!!!!!

Well, if anyone is in love with this box…it’s still available at $250.

Few thoughts:
I love getting the NM box every year. I can’t afford $600-700 for luxe items but I can afford $250 for that amount of retail. Like you said ~$35/item. I love getting items I could not afford otherwise.
1. The necklace is lovely. I love gold but this silver one will look so nice with just about anything. I have many long necklaces so I liked the shorter length on this one. It’s also a style that will last vs something too trendy.
2. I love how you put a pic in the clock! I’m taking mine to work. It will really brighten and class up my desk (I got blue as well).
3. The tray. Gorgeous and will make a great center piece for my dining room table. I’ll put candles, etc. in it. Love it.
4. Yes, Kevyn Aucoin is a legend in the makeup world. The palette is amazing and the shadow goes on like butter – very creamy and not dry or chalky with tons of fallout. The purple makes the best smoky eye. The shades are sophisticated and universal.
5. Candy. Shared 1 piece. Ate the rest.
6. Nail polish. Love DL but something I can afford anyway so I wasn’t as impressed but the colors are classic.
7. Sunnies. These are a classic style with a great fit (and I have a small face). They can’t be compared to Quay – the quality is much better and more comfortable.

This is such a LUX box. i have to say the items look so much better in person than in the pictures. the value is definitely there and for the things that i am not keeping for personal use, such as the nail polish, clock and pallet, they will make amazing gifts for my colleagues and friends at work.

How do the sunglasses compare to the Quay Australia ones we got from Pop Sugar last summer? I normally wear glasses and only occasionally swamp them out for contacts so I don’t really need more sunglasses, plus the Quay Australia and the one in the MizzFit box were both a bit large for me. Other than the sunglasses (which seem very odd for a winter box) the box is really stunning.

I thought this box was really nice and my favorite items were the tray, necklace, and clock! Oh and the bon bond were sooooo good!

I think the polish value listed is off though since the $25 Deborah Lippmann trio are the mini polishes and the polishes in this trio are all full sized.

I looked and couldn’t find anymore full sized trio sets or even the Pop Life set at all, so it would have been nice if the values were listed in the info book and we didn’t have to guess!

I really like the beauty and fashion items but the home items are such a miss for me. They look like things that would be in a model home and not in a good way. I was much happier with last year’s fancy designer goods – even the items I didn’t use were much better for gifting.

I’m very happy that the retail values are posted here. I’ve seen $199 in the swap thread for the sunglasses and $50+ for the nail polish trio.

I absolutely love this box and it’s just right for me. The only think I would change is the color of the clock! I am more into brighter colors and received a neutral brown gray color! If anyone would like to exchange just let me know!!!☺️☺️☺️ Otherwise this is an awesome box and I think it was curated quite well!

I love this box. Can anyone explain how to work the safety clasp on the necklace? I’m afraid to force it open and break it 🙁

This was such a frustrating box for me. It’s got really great items, much of which didn’t work out for me, personally.

I already own the palette in the colors I received.

The necklace is beautiful, but too dainty for my non “dainty body.

The sunglasses are great quality but looked awful on me.

I don’t wear nail polish. (Although I have tried that brand and its GREAT.)

HOWEVER, I adore the tray and really like the clock. 🙂

Each item should be valued higher than $35 since the chocolates are only $24 at full retail price.

I love the clock, the tray and I’d be happy to try the chocolates. Nothing else is really for my taste. I’ve never gotten one of these and I’m not sorry to miss this one. However, most of the time I order the seasonal $100 boxes. And I’ve been happy with all the ones that I’ve purchased.
