I Ordered From Meghan, The Duchess of Sussex’s Brand As Ever — My Real, Honest Review

Let me start by saying this: I’ve always admired Meghan Markle. Her style? Effortlessly chic. Her poise? In another league. The way she speaks—elegant, eloquent, thoughtful. Agree or not, she carries herself with a calm confidence that I genuinely look up to.

I also enjoy her show, and while I do understand why some people feel a little put off by her “too perfect” presentation, it doesn’t change the fact that I still like her. I enjoy watching her, and I love seeing a woman show up with intention and grace.

So when she launched As Ever, I knew I wanted to support her and try a couple of things myself. I ordered the Honey Set and the Hibiscus Tea simple, cozy items that I will use.

The Ordering & Delivery

I placed my order on November 2 and didn’t receive it until November 20. That was definitely longer than I expected. By the time it arrived, I was genuinely excited to open it and see whether the products felt worth the price.

The Unboxing… and the Reality

I opened the package… and I kind of froze.

The honey jar—my main item—was tiny. Literally as big as my hand. Nothing fancy, nothing luxe-looking, just… honey. My brain could not comprehend how I had just paid $62 for such a small amount of product.

And listen…
As a girl? Ounces and measurements? Not my strong suit. If you tell me “8 ounces,” I’m picturing… I don’t know, a candle? A lotion? A juice bottle? I truly thought I was getting something a little more substantial.

The tea wasn’t anything out of this world—it’s just tea. I’ve tried it with both the Wildflower and Orange Blossom honey, and it’s good.

Here is a video of me unboxing and looking at my fiancé like I “what did I just spend my money on?!” Never again.

Would I Order Again?

Probably not.

It’s not that the products were bad—they weren’t. They just didn’t match the cost in terms of size, packaging, or overall experience. As someone who works, budgets, and shops at places like Aldi, Publix, and European markets, I know I can get the same quality (and more of it) for much less.

Final Thoughts

I don’t regret trying the brand, and I was genuinely interested in seeing what As Ever had to offer. But this was a one-time purchase for me. If you’re buying it for the aesthetic or the Meghan connection, you might enjoy the novelty.

If you’re buying it for everyday value… your local grocery store will go a lot further for your money.
