Influenster: #BloomVoxBox!

I received the Influenster #BloomVoxBox in the mail not too long ago & it's another introduction to more amazing products again! Cutex nail polish remover pads are ah-mazing! I love love love them and will be definitely buy them in the future. Secret outlast invisible deodorant is long-lasting & free of white marks! NUXE dry oil is perfect for hair, skin, or nails. Sunbelt bakery bar was delicious and chocolatey! The Not Your Mother's Plump 4 Joy spray works wonders on those gloomy rainy days. And a beautiful SinfulShine nail polish in a hot pink color called VIP! This box was wonderful!

Influenster: #GLAMvoxbox!

In my latest Influenster VoxBox I received the #GLAMvoxbox with a good variety of beauty products for free to test out. This box included:

-Gillette Venus  embrace razors
-Gillette Venus Olay Violet shave cream
-Q-Tips Precision tips
-Not Your Mothers Clean Freak dry shampoo
-Shea Moisture facial scrubs & mask
-CuteX nail polish remover pads

Starting off with the Gillette Venus embrace razors these razors are great when shaving your legs, it has five blades on it and it glides smoothy across the skin. No nicks or cuts occurred when using this product, and I will definitely be buying these!

Next is the Gillette Venus Olay violet shave cream, this has always been my go to shave cream but this was my first time trying the violet scented version. It works just as well as the other scents, but I think I will be sticking with the Gillette Venus Olay vanilla scent instead. It was nice to try out a new scent though!

 Q-Tips precision tips are great for touching up nail polish or using them for nail art! I love how it has pointy ends to get into hard to reach spots on your nails. These are also great for using with your makeup.

Not Your Mothers Clean Freak refreshing dry shampoo is an amazing product to use on second or even third day hair. This dry shampoo leaves a nice refreshing scent in your hair and takes away grease and oil from not washing.

SheaMoisture was a totally new product to me but I'm always ready to try out a new face mask/ scrub! These scrubs/mask help your face feel clean and refreshed!

And now for my favorite product in this voxbox! The CuteX nail polish remover pads smell lemony instead of that nasty nail polish remover scent that brands usually have. You can take off all ten fingers of nail polish with just one pad! It's easy to use and sealed nicely so that you can pop one in your purse or bring with on vacation. I will definitely be buying more of these!

Covergirl VoxBox! #Plumpify #OhSugar

Recently I received the Covergirl VoxBox and a prize from Sally Hansen in the mail from Influenster! In the Covergirl VoxBox was the Plumpify mascara which has a nice shaped brush and helps make it appear as if I have even longer lashes! The next item was the Oh Sugar! lip balm in the shade Sprinkle. This is a nice lip balm that the more you apply it, the more vibrant the color will look. It's the perfect color for this Winter season and is just the right amount of red, not too bright. Lastly, is the prize from Sally Hansen which was a nail polish in a pretty violet color which will be perfect for the Spring and Summer! I'm very satisfied with these to boxes and love getting to review these products.

*I received this product complimentary for testing purposes.

August 2014: PinchMe Box

Last month I received my 2nd PinchMe box in the mail! PinchMe.com is a website where  you can request different samples  about once every month . Once you receive the samples you  have to try  them out and they give you a time limit for when you should have the short survey completed by.

The first sample in this box was the TOM'S long lasting lavender scented deodorant. I wasn't sure if I would like this product because I usually would buy Secret brand and also I'm not very fond of lavender scented things. It really surprised me how well this deodorant works and the smell actually is better than I expected.

I also received a bottle of Sinful Colors nail polish in the color "Bordeaux" it's a mix between burgundy and burnt orange which is perfect for the Fall. I really like this brand of nail polish, not only is their price cheaper than most brands, but also the quality of the nail polish is good and long-lasting.

 

 Another sample in this box was the Gevalia Traditional Roast Ground Coffee. This was pretty good tasting, coming from someone who only buys Caribou or Starbucks, it looks like I have a new brand to purchase.

In the box was also some samples from Garnier and a coupon for a free frozen meal from buenSABOR.

Influenster: Surf's Up Vox Box!

Recently I received a package in the mail from a site called Influenster, where you can sign up and possibly be chosen to review a variety of products for free based on surveys you fill out & reviews you leave on other products. This is my 1st Vox Box from Influenster & so far I am loving this website! Now, let me show you what came in the Surf's Up Vox Box: (I received these product complimentary for testing and review purposes from Influenster.)

First off I received a Sinful Colors Professional nail polish in the color "Firefly" it regularly retails for $1.99 in most convenice stores. The formula is formaldehyde, toluene, & DBP free & is never animal tested. The color of this nail polish is a vibrant yellow with a little bit of shimmer mixed in. I'm not very into yellow nail polish but I do like using it for nail art for flowers, polka dots, etc.

Second, I received the First Aid Shot Therapy "FAST" which retails for $2.99. I have not used this product yet, but it is an FDA compliant liquid pain relief drinkable shot that is used to quickly relieve headaches, sore muscles, back pain, & more.

 Another product in the Surf's Up Vox Box was the Hawaiian Tropic Silk Hydration After Sun lotion. This product goes for $2.99 for a 2oz bottle. It has ribbons of gel & lotion to leave skin feeling luxurious & refreshed for 24 hours. This lotion smells really good, it's scent is Coconut Papaya! I can't wait to use this lotion after a day out in the sun!

 The last actual product in the box was the COVERGIRL Bombshell Curvaceous by Lashblast Mascara which is sold for around $9.49-11.99 at most stores. This mascara features the Bombshell Boost System that has two brushes & formulas for volume, curl, & dramatic lashes. The first brush loads on volume, thickens, & curls lashes. The second brush is a dark, intensifying topcoat that seals the look. This mascara works like a waterproof formula & lasts along time! I'm really excited about using this mascara, it's been on my things to buy list for a long time now & I can't wait to open it!

The last two items in the Surf's Up Vox Box were two coupons for Jamba Juice Smoothie Kits which usually are $2.99-3.49, the coupons I got were for one free kit & $1.00 off another kit. These smoothie kits just need you to add juice & blend! The Jamba Juice smoothies are loaded with delicious fruits & yogurts. They even had fat-free or gluten-free smoothie kits which contain a healthy antioxidant boost, a full serving of fruit, & Vitamin C. Can't wait to try these out & will update this post later to let you guys know what I think!
