Sunkissed VoxBox from Influenster

I feel like I am really lucking out with my membership to Influenster. This is the first VoxBox I've received, but I've also recieved two stand-alone products to test! What an excellent program!

This month I received the Sunkissed VoxBox.

Included:  Dr. Scholl's For Her Insoles, Olay BB Cream, Sinful Colors nail polish (shade - "All the Rage"), and Goody Ouchless Ribbon Elastics.

First I tried the BB cream. Honestly? I couldn't tell a difference. In Olay's defense, I have pretty great skin complexion on my own. However, the presence of the cream on my face was practically unnoticeable. This is coming from someone who never wears foundation. It didn't feel like I had five pounds of makeup on. This is a good thing!

Next I put in the Goody Ouchless hair ties. I took a before and after photo.

Before: 

 

 And after:

I have long bangs, so it's kind of hard to tell. But, I have to say the ponytail holders didn't hurt coming out, and since that's their main claim, they are considered a success in my book.

Next I used the Sinful Colors polish. I mixed things up a little and had some fun with the bright pink color they sent me, and paired it with some silver polish.

And a close-up:

I tried using tape to make the stripes, and it only sort of worked, but you get the picture. Anyway, the Sinful Colors polish worked great. It had a good consistency, spread evenly and dried pretty quickly. I didn't even have to put on a second coat, so that's pretty cool, too.

Lastly, my Dr. Scholl's insoles. I haven't ever had much of a problem wearing heels, but these insoles definitely make it more comfortable.

So that's the end of my review. Overall, I loved every product. Thanks to Influenster for teaming up with each of these companies to bring me and others such great products to test for free!

Ivory 2-in-1 Hair and Body Wash

I have received yet another awesome FREE product from Influenster. This time it is Ivory 2-in-1 Hair and Body Wash.

I hadn't ever tried any Ivory products before, so this was a new experience. So far I've enjoyed the product. It has a good smell that lasts a long time. The cleanness doesn't seem to last as long as other shampoos and conditioners though.

Go watch their digital short here, and make sure to visit their Facebook page.

Once I get a picture, I'll add it to this post. For now, though, this is it. Thanks, Influenster and Ivory, for working together to bring me a great product!

VoxBox - Crest 3D Whitestrips

So this is my first post on my new blog! Exciting stuff. This blog will be dedicated to all the awesome stuff I get from Influenster. (Honestly, is there anything cooler than being a member of an online community and getting free stuff, all for maintaining an online presence?)

Many people are members of Influenster for a long time before they get their first VoxBox. I got lucky and received one only a month or two after creating an account.

The contents of my first-ever VoxBox?

Crest 3D Whitestrips! I've been eyeballing these for FOREVER, but at $45.99 in stores there was no way my measly budget could allow it. When I opened my box I couldn't help but smile.

As you can see, my box arrived on Halloween, and I began using it the very next day. I actually have 21 strips instead of just the 20 that came in the box, because not too long ago I received a sample one in the mail.

I'm not going to post pictures of my progress just yet - I'll save that for another blog post - but I'm already seeing results! I'm VERY happy with this product. I can't wait until the regimen is complete so I can sport my all-new smile.
