SORRY FOR THE CRAPPY PHOTOS.

I have not worked out in SO LONG and I took this VoxBox as a sign. *embarrassed laugh*

Influenster Uni VoxBox

I swear, I took my time with these products. Apparently, going to school really does affect your free time. LOL So here's what I got...


Pilot Acroball
You know when they say don't drop your pen so it doesn't blot? I guess in the shipping process, the box got shaken and dropped that the ball of the pen I got was not turning evenly. Boo. I loved that the tip wasn't thick, and that even if it was blotting it still wrote smoothly.


Rimmel Stay Matte Foundation in Sand
I love this foundation even if the first time I tried it, it was one shade too light. It was smooth, light, and did not oxidize on my skin. So when I took the survey, and saw the shades, I knew it was for this foundation and could not wait to get the shade I want need! I don't normally put on foundation but I'm sure this one is going to be my to-go one if I ever feel the need to have a smoother face--which has been a problem for me lately because of the ever-changing weather here in LA!

NYC Expert Last Lip Color in Forever Fuchsia
I've never tried their lipstick before. So the shade I got is pretty intimidating. It's bright...like BRIGHT.  I'm very tan so I always look at things of this shade as early warning devices. I tried it and was not a fan at first. I kept it on to see if I'll like it and will not be surprised by how my bright my lips are. Turns out, I liked it on me...just not sure about wearing it out just yet!


Impress Manicure in Control Freak
I've used this brand before and LOVED it. Its been a while though so I'm excited to have a new set! They're super easy to put on and lasts as long as normal nail polish. I could have asked for a "quieter" shade but it's okay, I'll still wear them because I love pink!

Red Rose Tea Water Enhancer (Instavideo here)
I thought this product was interesting. I am not a fan, and don't really buy products similar to this one but I'm glad I got this and finally got to try it. The darkness of the concentrated liquid got me a bit concerned, and got me thinking what in the world are the chemicals in this thing (scroll down for a picture). It tasted normal and I'd use my sample again but like I said, I don't but products like this because I'd rather drink water.



I received these products complimentary from Influenster for testing purposes.

Dove VoxBox

I got the Dove Vox a couple of weeks ago and finally decided to unbox it tonight. I was sent the Dove Advance Care deodorant in I think the regular scent -- and if I used the scent as basis on how I think the others would smell like, then damn, everything will smell super good. The product I received smelled so good that I wanted to use it right away. However, I did not because I'd like to shower first. LOL! I also noticed that the packaging is the typical deodorant packaging (of course) except that it's matte...not that it would have any bearing on how good the quality of the product actually is but it's a good fresh change.

Did You Know?
36% of what you remove while shaving is skin.

I'll make sure to update you guys about how this product worked for me. I am hopeful that it wouldn't irritate my skin like every other Dove product I use. :)

Violet VoxBox

This box took a long time coming. I was qualified for a Rose Voxbox but got bumped into this one so I had to wait a little longer. It's not a big deal though, what matters is that I got free goodies to try out! Did anyone else get the Violet Voxbox? What did you think about it?

So here are what were in the box along with my review. I will be updating these reviews as I go through all the products.

Goody Athletique Headband
I am a little nervous about wearing this headband because it does not have the non slip rubber thing under it. My head has a weird shape and no matter how thick or thin a headband is, it slides, moves back, and ends up hanging from my pony tail. Unfortunately, this headband is also a victim of my small head. What I liked about it though is that it is not too tight, it is reversible so it's like you have two headbands in one. ;)


Montagne Jeunesse Clay Spa - Dead Sea Mud Spa
This one was interesting. I've never used facial mask that came with an actual cloth-like thing so you wouldn't have to spread the mud yourself. It smelled really good and made my skin feel soft but one thing I noticed was that there was  stinging sensation. It's probably because the face cleanser I used dried my skin out. As someone who likes looking at ads and criticizing marketing campaigns, I think their brochure has a lot of room for improvement. There was sooo much going on. Not exactly product related but still, something to think about. :)

Sally Hansen New Triple Shine - Dive In
The color is pretty but it's kind of out of season. I am definitely wearing it though since I live in California where it's almost always summer.

SOYJOY - Dark Chocolate Cherry
Alright, honestly, I was disappointed  with this. I don't like cherry flavored stuff but I do love dark chocolate but I was not pleased by this bar. I also do not like the packaging. The bar I got tasted fake to me like it was processed so much before it got packaged.It also gave a weird texture in my mouth. As you may have already guessed, I did not finish the whole bar.

Not Your Mother's Clean Freak Refreshing Dry Shampoo [My favorite thing in the Voxbox!]
I have a(n irrational) fear of dry shampoos. But this one changed my mind and I'm going to make my mom try it because she's all about taking really good care of her hair. I think she's going to love this because I did. It had a strong smell at first but it faded after I brushed my hair. My hair was also refreshed after the brushing and the oily hair feeling went away. PS, please know that I am one who would wash my hair everyday because I grew up doing that. Not washing my hair makes me feel very weird like how people feel weird when they forget to wear their wrist watch. But this dry shampoo might change that. Here's a picture of when I used it...you cannot really see how it helped volumize my hair but check it out anyway. :p

Influenster Sunkissed VoxBox [#SunVoxBox]

Last Saturday, after a long afternoon of shopping, we got home and Ron found a box by our door. When he asked what I ordered online, I just said, I didn't order it, that came for free from Influenster, the same company that sent me the Palmolive dish liquid he really liked. Of course, knowing my husband, he was excited for me.

In the box, I found these good stuff. I have only had the chance to try the Olay BB Cream but I'll talk about that in another post. Did you get the Sunkissed Voxbox? If not, have you tried any of these products?
And if you're curious how much all these products cost, here's the little card that came with it:
