Influenster TLC VoxBox



I was one of the lucky ones chosen to review the TLC VoxBox complimentary of Influenster. 
upon opening my pretty little purple box I found an assortment of goodies which included the following...



  • Neo To Go  by Neosporin 
  • Anew Reversalist by Avon 
  • Ivory bar of soap 
  • Puffs travel size pack of tissues 
  • Shell- fuel rewards card
  • Breyers Gelato free coupon


  • REVIEWS

    Neo To Go
    First aid antiseptic/pain relieving spray. Infection protection, anytime, anywhere.

    Directions: 

    1. Press down on trigger until white mist hole is revealed.
    2.Continue to press trigger firmly until mist is released. 

    Review: I found this antiseptic spay to be a real charm. My husband busted his knuckles up pretty badly and this stuff worked like a charm, helping to alleviate his pain and keep the bacteria out. We've already noticed quite a bit of healing just since our last spray. 

     

    ANew Reversalist 
    A wrinkle Smoother with a finishing cream-to-power skincare perfector in a portable compact, for application over moisturizer or makeup. Instantly reduces the look of any type of wrinkle on the forehead, crows feet and eye area.

    Directions:

    To use: Gently pat into skin. DO NOT RUB. Use your fingertips to apply directly on wrinkle, over your moisturizer or makeup. 

    Review: I found this product to work very nicely. Although I don't have wrinkles yet, I found the product to have a nice "blur affect" when applied. Giving a sort of air brushed look to it. It feels very silky and not heavy on the face. It also has a nice little handy mirror on the front of it if you plan to carry it around in your purse. 



    Ivory
    99.44 pure, free of dyes & heavy perfumes 

    Directions: There were none...

    Review: I love the smell, even though they claim to be free of  "heavy perfumes" there is still a very distinctive smell. I'm not really a fan of bar soap and don't see me going out and repurchasing this product for that reason. I 'm a body wash kind of girl, but it did do a good job cleaning my skin and leaving it feel fresh and clean. If you're into bar soap I would highly recommend this one to you. I also thought it was really neat that it floats!! Who would of guessed? No more losing your soap in the bathtub. 


    Puffs
    Lotion white facial tissues 10 2-ply Tissues 

    Directions: There were none...

    Review: I received a travel sized pack of facial tissues with lotion and I must admit i'm not a fan of lotion tissues. So I have not tried this out on my face because I'm very acne prone and have sensitive skin. I have however been keeping this in my diaper bag for my little allergy suffering children and they work great for them. It's been a real life savor having these this time of year especially for my oldest who suffers the worst. The lotion actually helps keep her nose from becoming red and she really enjoys using them. They are quite handy to carry on you when you're a mom.

    Review: The Shell fuel rewards card seems like a great and convenient way to pay for gas and other qualifying items. 


     Breyers Gelato Ice Cream 
    A trio of textures in four indulgent varieties: Vanilla Caramel,  Raspberry Cheesecake, Tiramisu, and Triple chocolate. 

    Directions: Open and Enjoy! 

    Review: I received a coupon in my Influenster VoxBox for a free Breyers Gelato ice cream.This Ice cream is to die for! Absolutely amazing and heavenly. Rich and creamy and very yummy. Like mentioned there are many textures giving your mouth an explosion of goodness in every bite. The only down side is my store only carries two flavors Tiramisu and Triple Chocolate so we picked Triple Chocolate. We really enjoyed this ice cream and will be purchasing this again in the future! 



      I received these products complimentary from Influenster for testing purposes.

    Dr. Scholl's® Active Series®


    I was lucky enough to be one of the people selected to test Dr. Sholl's Active Series shoe insoles Via Influenster VoxBox. 


     I was very pleased with how will these insoles worked, they provided me with support and comfort even with the swelling I've been experiencing this pregnancy. I actually noticed less swelling since I started using them. They are actually very comfortable. They are also very easy to insert and take out. They helped alleviate pressure while walking.


    I would totally recommend using these if you experience pain from shin splints, runner's knee, and plantar fascitis.  


    *I was given this product complimentary of Influenster for testing proposes.*

    My free gifts from Influenster


    I was picked from Influenster to receive a free gift for participating in the Palmolive brand challenge. In all honestly it kind of just seemed like random leftover's from previous challenges thrown together. Either way I love FREE STUFF so I'm not complaining. 

    My Box came on August 6th, 2013 

    When I opened it I found these goodies inside!!

    The first product I tested was the nail polish. I took it up stairs where I painted my toes. 



    I tested Sinful Colors nail polish in color "feeling great" and so far no complaints. As of today (8.13.13) I've still notice no chipping and the color is holding up great. I used two coats of color and NO top coat.

    Next I tried the Hand soap



    I tested Softsoap Rich Shea Butter. This product immediately went onto my kitchen sink. This product I do love and recommend for anyone looking to keep their hands soft. It reminds me of body wash and leaves my hands feeling soft and feeling good. Ps. the rich shea butter fragrance was a great compliment to my Palmolive dish soap I received complementary of Influenster which was coconut scent. Both are really great summer fragrances. 

    Lastly the ImPRESS nails. Which I cannot say I was impressed! These look pretty and might be great if you just need your nails done for a formal event and do not intend on keeping on more than a few hours and not washing your hands. Other wise, these would be a complete waste of money. I had them on less than an hour and washed my hands and noticed lifting around the cuticle. The 2nd time I washed my hands they were falling off. How embarrassing would that be, to be out in public and your nail just fall off!?!? I do not recommend these unless it's for a quick event. 



     Again all products were sent as a free gift sent by Influenster and I chose to write a review of my experiences.

    Lifeway Kefir


    I had the privilege of testing an pretty amazing product. I was given the opportunity to test taste 1 free kefir product by Lifeway. Kefir is like a yogurt but upgraded and optimized for maximum health benefits. This product is packed with probiotics and contains good for the gut bacteria.  It's a healthy alternative when hungry and need a snack or great for cooking and used in recipes. 


    I opted to test taste the low fat strawberry kefir drink. It has a nice thick rich consistency but not so thick you cannot drink it. It really reminded me of drinking yogurt. Plus it comes in two sizes. I chose the bigger of the two. I really enjoyed the taste and so did my children (all three of them). 

    Kefir Mustaches 



      The only down side to this product is finding it. I had a terrible time finding a store that carry's it. I went to our local grocery store (shoprite) and no luck. I did however manage to talk to the dairy manager and she said she could order some if I was going to be a regular customer. I ended up having to drive to the next closest grocery store (another shoprite but bigger) which was about 30 mins away and they only carry a select few of the Lifeway products. The other concern is that the products are a bit pricey but not so bad that I would not considering buying them. Just like all things that are good for you... they cost more.

    I'm very curious to try other products now that I know how good these products are for you. I really strive to live a healthy lifestyle for myself and children and can see us making this part of our routine. 

    If you're interested in learning more about theses great products or where you can find a store that carry's them check out their website.





     I received this product complimentary to test through Influenster’s VoxBox program.

    Easy Lunch box prize

    I received my Easy lunch box prize Saturday July 27th. It was a very fast process and very professional. I would totally recommend Kelly. Kelly had contacted me July 23rd (late evening) after Amanda and I had spoken about the required details. I  had my products shipped to me from start to end in 4 days!!! That's pretty impressive if you ask me! The products are very durable and nice sized. The cooler is also a very convenient size . Now that I've had a chance to test them out. I would totally recommend these products.

    I won a GIVEAWAY!!



    I'm so excited to say I won my 1st giveaway on Amanda Kee's blog. She had a giveaway/ review on Easy Lunch Boxes and I won, which is CRAZY because I never win anything. I ended up picking the same color combo as Amanda and didn't even realize until after I sent in my choices. I was heavily debating between the orange cooler and the blue (which I picked). Maybe I'll buy the orange later down the road depending how I like the blue one. Kelly the owner of the shop is very friendly and quick. Less than an hour after Amanda and I talked and I gave her my info, Kelly had contacted me. Later that night I picked out my choices and the very next day I had my shipping conformation sent to me. So i'll be on the look out for my new products. 

    Thank you Amanda and Kelly for this opportunity.
