Influenster Spring VoxBox 2014

Influenster Spring VoxBox 2014

It has been forever and a day since I have received my last VoxBox and luckily enough I was able to get my hands on the Spring VoxBox! All in which came with goodies from KISS Nails, Rimmel London, Playtex, Nivea, and more! Of course I'll have my review of each on this page :)

My Opinion: I was so excited when I got the KISS Everlasting French Manicure set in my VoxBox. I've always found that when I get my nails done in acrylics they fall off very easily, but when I use press-ons/glue-ons they last so much longer. I shaped the nails to each of mine to find the right size then covered my nail in a light layer of glue provided then pressed the false nail onto my real nails. I let them dry and done! They look like they were professionally done and I was even asked a few times if they actually were :) Of course I told them I got them from Influenster.

My Opinion: I've really been enjoying using the Nivea Skin Firming lotion. I've been using it for about 2 weeks and although I've not noticed any real difference as far as my skin firming up I have noticed that my skin is really soft. The formula is really light weight and non greasy which is a plus! The lotion also has a really nice scent. I usually always put my lotions on after a hot shower so that they can sink into my skin better. I love Nivea's products. I do hope to see some slight firming after use for a while. I used to use their old formula which I'm not sure if they still carry, but that lotion had left a cooling effect and it really did make my legs look more toned. I hope that this lotion will do the same over time. Of course it's not like botox in a bottle .. it's just a little difference, but hey every little bit counts!

3. Playtex Sport Fresh Balance

Play without Limits. Introducing NEW Playtex® Sport® Fresh Balance™ with Odor Shield™ technology. It’s designed to neutralize odors for ultimate freshness on and off the field. Combined with a 360o® design for Sport Level Protection®, you can go the distance. Play On®.

My Opinion: I have PCOS so I rarely have regular periods so these haven't come in handy for me, but my friend did however use these and she said she loves them that they were way more comfortable than others she had tried. She said that they didn't leak either. In her words she said she could do all her outdoor strenuous activities and had no issues. 

4. Rimmel London Scandaleyes Retro Glam Mascara 

The 60s are back in full swing with a thicker, fuller, wide-eyed look!

• A wide-eyed false lash look
• Fanned out volume
• No clumps
• Lashes up, out and over the top

Check out Rimmel London US on twitter: @RimmelLondonUS

My Opinion: I'm loving the NEW Rimmel London Scandaleyes Retro Glam mascara. The pigment in the mascara is a deeper black which I love.. I'm always out for that darkest black. It almost has a semi matte finish which gives your eyes that 60's mod look which I think Rimmel was going for in their campaign. The brush coats the lashes very easily and I found that with this mascara I could do a second coat without problems. My lashes didn't look clumpy. This mascara made my lashes look as though they were fuller and thicker! Rimmel London has been getting it right with their mascara's lately. I've been a fan of them all. This one is my 2nd favorite and my favorite mascara of all time is of course the Rimmel London Accelerator Endless Mascara! 

5. Labor Day Movie Car Freshener - With Information about the movie 'Labor Day'! 

From Academy Award-nominated director Jason Reitman (Up in the Air, Juno), Labor Day is “a romance to root for”* starring Kate Winslet and Josh Brolin as two strangers drawn together under incredible circumstances. What starts as an unforeseen encounter over a long holiday weekend soon becomes a second chance love story in the unforgettable film that critics are calling “satisfying and deeply touching”

ZonePerfect Bars Review

ZonePerfect Bars Review

About ZonePerfect Bars:

Available in three flavors, including Vanilla Berry, Chocolate and Raspberry, the newest addition to the ZonePerfect brand combines the smooth, creamy richness of Greek yogurt with protein to keep you going. ZonePerfect Greek flavors can be found in the nutrition aisle at select grocery stores, drug stores and mass merchandisers.

ZonePerfect Vanilla Berry Bar

Greek Yogurt Vanilla Berry

Rich Greek yogurt wrapped around a delightful burst of berries makes this nutrition bar taste like a vanilla smoothie with fresh berries on top.

My Impression: I received the ZonePerfect Greek Yogurt Bar in Vanilla Berry from 'The Good Life' Influenster VoxBox. I was super excited to try it out. I have to say I'm a big fan of fitness bars. I always look for ones that are high in protein. This bar has 12g of protein which is really good. I'm low in protein so that's why I prefer to get those with higher grams of protein. This bar was very good. It's crunchy and the yogurt on the outside was very smooth and soft so it was crunchy and yet soft. I can't wait to try more of the different flavors and bars that ZonePerfect offers. I would totally recommend to those who are looking for a new protein bar!

Olay Fresh Effects BB Cream Review

Olay Fresh Effects BB Cream Review

Olay Fresh Effects {BB Cream!} Skin Perfecting Tinted Moisturizer with SPF 15: Retails for $12.99

24-hour hydration and a splash of sheer color. This all-in-one skin perfecter, sunscreen, and tinted moisturizer evens tone and refreshes dullness, for flawless looking skin (available in two shades:fair/light and light/medium). 

The Olay Fresh Effects BB cream claims to be a skin perfecting tinted moisturizer with SPF 15. It claims to have 6 Skin Perfecting Benefits: Refreshes, brightens, evens tone, hydrates, smooths, protects. All-in-one solution for instantly brighter-looking, smoother-feeling, more even skin tone.

My Before and After

The Verdict: I got the chance through Influenster to try the new Olay Fresh Effects BB Cream and I was super excited. I've been using it now for a little over 2 weeks and I can say I don't like it as a BB cream, but I do love it as a moisturizer. I think they made a mistake in calling it a BB cream vs. a tinted moisturizer because it really doesn't have that much of a color pigment at all even though in the swatch above it looks as though it would. I got mine in fair/light since I am ghostly pale, but as you can see in my before and after there really isn't a difference at all appearance wise. However, as a moisturizer it's BOMB. I have combination/oily skin and I found that after cleansing my face and using this it would just skin right into my face - of course I had enough time to apply it to my face, but it seemed to sink into the skin which I like. I didn't feel I got overly oily through-out the day. It does have a highly floral scent so if you are one of those who are sensitive to scents - keep that in mind, but it doesn't bother me as I didn't smell the scent through-out the day. I'm a big fan of Olay. I have used it for years. I would like to try more of the line - I had tried a sample of the shine, shine go away cleanser and I am quite fond of it as well. So final thoughts - would I repurchase? Yes, if I could find a sale as it is a steep price for a tinted moisturizer. So, maybe I'll find a coupon in the near future, but until then I'm still using this everyday.

Goody Ouchless Bands Review

Goody #Ouchless Bands Review

Goody’s NEW Ouchless Ribbon Elastics offer you a unique hair tie to personalize your ponytail. As beautiful as ribbons but soft and stretchy too, these hair ties are “knot” your average elastic. New Ribbon Elastics are both comfortable and fashionable, plus look great in your hair or on your wrist.

Product Feature:

• Unique knot style hair tie

• Soft, stretchy ribbion material

• Looks beautiful on the wrist or in the hair!

• Assorted colors

• From America's #1 elastics brand, Goody Ouchless!

My Opinion: These bands are so cute and the name speaks for itself 'OUCHLESS' - that's what we all want right? Nobody wants their hair pulled or snagged by an unruly hair tie. Thankfully Influenster and Goody saved the day when they sent me the Sunkissed Summer's Voxbox because I had lost my hair ties and it is super hot here so I needed a hair tie stat. They don't pull my hair and they are a fun accessory to have on your wrist - they don't look like just a regular old scrunchy or nasty hair-tie. I have had many hair ties in my life time - and all have seemed to have that one gross feature and if you have a shedding problem or not - either/or this will have probably happened to you - my hair ties would get hair wrapped all around the round band and id try and put it on my wrist and it would look just so NASTY. I'm glad I don't have to deal with that with these also they don't cut the circulation out on my wrist either another PLUS! I accidentally bleached the one in the picture above with my white clothing so it came out washed out which is okay with me because I think it looks like a rose!

My Night-Time Routine Through Instagram!

My Impression: I was thrilled to receive the Aveeno Positively Radiant Cream to try and as soon as I got it I began trying it out. Id wash my face and apply it at night. This did not work for my skin as it is sensitive, but it did however work for my Mother. For me when I applied it my skin burned, my face broke-out and I would stop it for a little while then Id start back and it was indeed the Aveeno that broke me out. Also, if you are sensitive to scents - this is really a highly floral scented cream. On the flip-side my Mother absolutely loves it and her opinion is that it really feels like it's sinking into her skin - she experienced no burning or anything, but her skin I've noticed looks a lot brighter and I see less of hyperpigmentation. I asked her what she was doing and she said she had been using the Aveeno cream I gave her - so I've seen that it does work it just was not for me and more for her. I just have highly sensitive skin which is a bummer, but I do love Aveeno's products and hopefully they will come out with more facial products to try with maybe less floral or no scent - because I truly believe that anything I've ever tried that is highly scented has broken me out. Otherwise, I can't knock the product because of my Mother's success.

Montange Juenesse

I've used these masks since I was in middle school. I still pick them up from time to time to unwind from a long rough day. Sometimes it's good to pamper yourself in a busy world. I hadn't had time lately to get one I'd been so busy, but thanks to Influenster I was able to get one in 'Strawberry Souffle' and it smelled so good. It was nice to be able to sit down and relax with the mask on.
