VowVox Box from Influenster

So, I got introduced to Influenster through a fellow blog mom, Emily.  Totally rad.
Free stuff to test out and review complimentary of Influenster?  Sweet. I'm in.
Literally, all products provided complimentary by Influenster for testing purposes. 

So, here's the low down for you on my VowVoxBox !
I received this VoxBox in June!  Some of the products were awesome
for me, some I had trouble with!
The Contents:

  • Pure Silk Raspberry Mist Shaving cream
  • Tide to Go pen
  • Sally Hansen Complete Salon Manicure in Barracuda
  • Riley and Grey invite
  • Olay Regenerist Tone Perfecting Cream
  • Eco Tools Pure Complexion Facial sponge


Here's my low down on the products:

Pure Silk Raspberry Mist Shaving Cream
I will be switching to this shaving cream!  It is so rich and creamy!  I have not had a knick free shave in a long time!  It smells REALLY good too!

Tide To Go Pen
It was okay.  Didn't work the very best on some messy shirts we have, but it definitely helped! The stains were very minimal after a cycle through the washing machine.

Sally Hansen Barracuda
Amazing color!  It was a little thing compared to other Sally Hansen products I've tried and compared to my love of Jamberry lacquer.  It took 4+ coats to achieve a nice nail.  The dry time was not fun, but it did hold up pretty well for about a week compared to other polish I have tried (minus Jamberry).

Riley and Grey
Seems like a great resource for anyone getting married!

Olay Regenerist Tone Perfecting Cream
Not for me.  It was light, silky, and had a nice floral scent.  My skin is very oily though, so acne mania broke out and my face was REALLY oily due to using this cream.  I think it would be great for anyone who has normal to dry skin.

 Eco Tools Complexion Facial Sponge
This is a neat little sponge!  It is hard until you get it wet and it fits really well into your hand.  I didn't really notice much different when using this sponge.  I think that the exfoliating sponge they have would see more results on my oily face.

Mary Kay Influenster VoxBox

So, here's the low down for you on my Mary Kay Glam VoxBox (hip right? a VoxBox).
I received this VoxBox in May but wanted to really give it a good test run before reviewing.  I have pretty sensitive skin that doesn't like a change up in routine so I was waiting for WW3 to happen on my face.  Guess what?  It didn't! As a matter of fact, my complexion is nicer than it was!  The products they sent were so awesome! Full size everything which allowed for a great test drive! 

                                     The contents
  • Gel Eyeliner With Expandable Brush Applicator--Black
  • Translucent Loose Powder--Sheer


Here's my low down on the products:

Mascara
LOVE this.  It lasts all day and keeps my lashes looking full and long!  My only complaint was that it was pretty wet for awhile after application so when I blinked it would get onto my lower lash/skin.  But would totally recommend this!

        Lip Gloss
Went on really smooth and wasn't super sticky like some are.  Tasted good too.  The color was rich and bright but not for me.  I'm just not a red lip girl (or it was way too different for me).  I would  recommend this product and would probably purchase in a different color!

Mineral Cheek Color
Lasted most of the day and wasn't shiny! I felt like it compared to most other blushes that I have used in the past.  Went on nicely and had decent coverage! Recommended! 

Bronzing Powder
I really liked this bronzing powder.  It went on more evenly and smoothly than the other bronzers that I have used in the past.  It lasted all day and gave good coverage! Recommended!

Gel Eyeliner
Not for me.  It was easy to apply once I got the hang of it, but it is more for the makeup enthusiast, not the minimalist.  The Expandable Brush Applicator was nice and easy to use.  Recommended for the makeup enthusiast!

 Translucent Loose Powder 
I absolutely loved this!  It was easy to apply, kept my face from getting really oily during the day, and kept the rest of my makeup in tip top shape the whole day! It did not look caked on either like other powders I have used.  It didn't make my pores look large either.  Recommended!  

Cream Eye Color
Love, Love, Love!  It was so easy to apply and lasted all day!  Some of the other eye colors I've used in the past have lasted maybe the morning or looked caked on.  The color was nice and neutral.  It didn't crease up and complimented the other colors I was sent. Recommended! 

Brushes  
Both of these brushes are AMAZING!  Very comparable to some of the nicer brands on the market right now for sure! Highly recommend!
