Influenster "Frosty" VoxBox Review


It's been a while since I did a box review. I forgot to take the "everything in the box laid out pretty" picture. It's mainly because I was so darned excited to actually see what was in the box! (Also I was supposed to be having Wonderwall movie night that night and it just wouldn't play).


So anyway, this is the Influenster Frosty VoxBox, and it was really heavy! I had no idea what was in it, but the box was considerably bigger than the last VoxBox of mixed items that I'd gotten.


The first thing I pulled out was this bag of Fruit Vines bites. I noted, sadly, that although I can eat their licorice, these guys had glycerin in them. They've become a Christmas gift for a coworker.


I love cooking with thyme! I only have powdered thyme aside from this McCormick one, but I always use it for my mushroom leek soup, which I'm doing everything in my power to make my signature dish. So this is very cool.


This brush by Ecotools looks really nice, although I don't really use this kind of brush. I have yet to decide exactly what to do with it. My hair is really fine, so I'm not sure it will do much for me.


I do love Rimmel! This is a waterproof mascara remover. Generally, I just let mine wear off, but this is probably something I should start using.


Oh and joy! The box also included a Rimmel Scandal Eyes eyeliner pencil! I will definitely use this guy.


Long-time readers or people who can read the blog title will know I like tea. I also really like mint tea, and this candy cane stuff by Celestial Seasonings was no exception. It's a little creamier than normal peppermint I think? I don't know, but I loved it, and I'll definitely use the coupon.


Ah, my old joke, the anti-aging cream. Not sure when I'll use this, but hopefully I don't need it yet!


The last thing in the box was this NYC Expert Last Lipstick in a pretty cool "sugar plum" shade that I totally think will suit me.

So much holiday fun and cool new products!

I got this box free from Influenster.

Quick Review: Vaseline Intensive Care

I got the Influenster "Vaseline" Voxbox, which was essentially just a bottle of this intensive care Vaseline lotion. It's got faint to no smell, so it's great for people who don't like smells, or for a moisturizer that won't clash with your perfume, etc. As far as moisturizing, it was pretty nice. It doesn't seem very thick, but it does the job.

Influenster "Surf's Up" Vox Box Review


I'm back! And I bring with me, my very first free Vox Box from Influenster. I've been using Influenster since January, but this is the first time I've qualified for a free box!


You qualify for the Vox Box based on your influence level. You connect with social media sites and review products. 


The first thing in my box was this "pain relief shot." I'm sure it will come in handy, and I wonder if it would have worked on the terrible cramps I had the other day (didn't have this stuff with me though). 


The next thing in my box was this Hawaiian Tropic "After Sun" lotion. I haven't seen a lot of sun yet this summer, but when/if I do, I will check this out. Also I will probably end up letting my mom try it, since the sun seems to be picking her out as its victim lately. The scent is really nice, a kind of flowery coconut. It makes me hope I do get some sun this summer!


I haven't tried this yet, but I'm super excited to get to! I've been having fun experimenting with hair products lately, and this seems like plenty to try. When I do, I'll be sure to post about it on my Twitter. 


The final physical thing in my box was this bottle of "Sage Rose" nail polish by Sinful Colors Professional. I've mentioned before that I can't keep my nails polished for work, but this color really makes me wish I could. It's like a pale, sparkling raspberry color.


Also the box came with a coupon for a free Jamba Juice smoothie kit. I hope the grocery stores around here carry them!

This box is so neat! I always love free stuff, and I don't mind telling people my opinion on products, so this is a super neat opportunity. Hopefully I qualify again some time! I received these products complimentary from Influenster for testing purposes.
