Influenster Frosty VoxBox

Hey everyone! I'm so excited that I got my third VoxBox from Influenster. Influenster is an online community of consumers who give reviews on products and experiences. If you are active on the site, Influenster may invite you to participate in their VoxBox programs, where members receive complimentary products to review! Here is what came in the box:



And here it is deconstructed:



Descriptions for each product come straight from the VoxBox card that came inside.

1) EcoTools Hair Brush ($10.99)
EcoTools hair brushes are designed with unique features that leave your head and hair happy and healthy. Long or short, straight or curly, EcoTools has the brush to tame any hair style with a variety of five brush head shapes and bristle designs specially crafted to suit every need.

received the Sleek & Shine Finisher. You use this with your hair dryer and it supposedly gets your hair dry 20% faster. I haven't tried this brush out yet but I may bring it to Florida on vacation next week to see if it tames my frizz.

2) McCormick Gourmet Thyme ($4.79)
The freshest flavors deserve a fresh new look! McCormick Gourmet's Thyme imparts a light minty flavor that is distinctively warm and aromatic. McCormick Gourmet Thyme can be used throughout the day in dishes such as breakfast casseroles, hearty soups, stews, stuffing, and oven-roasted chicken.

Okay, let's all just address the elephant in the room. What the heck is thyme doing in my VoxBox?! So random, but I'm certainly excited to add it to my spice rack.

3) Fruit Vines Bites ($1.28-$1.79)Fruit Vines Bites are a new, soft, chewy fruit candy, from the Red Vines family, available in two fruit flavors - strawberry and cherry. Low fat and made with no preservatives, Fruit Vines Bites are available in three sizes: a 2oz single serve, a 5oz hanging bag and a 10oz resealable stand-up bag and can be found at Walmart in the West, Kroger, Walgreens, Target, Safeway, and Rite Aid.

Gave these to my mom, she said they were pretty good!

4) Rimmel Gentle Eye Makeup Remover ($7.49)Gently removes all eye makeup, including long lasting and waterproof makeup, with no oily residue. 

Have not tested this out yet, but I'm looking forward to trying it! My current makeup remover that I've been using forever is from Clinique. Rimmel's remover would be way cheaper if I like it enough to purchase!

5) No7 Protect and Perfect Advanced Sachet sample (full sized $22.99)

This clinically proven serum is even more effective at reducing the appearance of fine lines for younger looking skin in just two weeks.

Not sure I'll use this, but I suppose it wouldn't hurt to try it.

6) Celestial Seasonings Candy Cane Lane Decaf Green TeaLive life well this holiday season with Celestial Seasonings and take a stroll down Candy Cane Lane! It's made with the very finest green tea leaves, peppermint and other botanicals, because at Celestial Seasonings, we know you are what you steep.

Ha ha "you are what you steep." That's actually pretty cute! Gave this to my mom as well because she is a big tea drinker. Man let me tell you she was excited to be scoring all these goodies.

7) Rimmel Scandaleyes Waterproof Kohl Kajal Eyeliner ($4.49)
Gives instant color impact with its high intensity pigments. The ultra-smooth and creamy formula glides on easily.

So for some reason there were two of these in my box. It was just my lucky day! And guess who got the extra? (If you guessed my mom, you were correct). I did a swatch of this eyeliner and it went on verrrrry smooth and pigmented.

8) NYC Expert Last Lip Color in Sugar Plum ($1.99)
Ready to take your lips to the next level? Try our NEW Expert Last Lip Color in twenty tantalizing shades. Get intense, amplified color and shine that lasts up to six hours! Our moisturizing formula glides on easily for a silky, smooth, velvety finish for all day wear.

Swatched this on my wrist and the formula definitely felt silky. Tried it on my lips and it was like WOAH frosty. I may try layering it over another color and see how that goes.

Based on my first impressions of these products I am pretty pleased with my Frosty VoxBox. Kind of a random assortment, but still a fun box to receive! Definitely check out www.influenster.com if you're interested in receiving free products (who isn't?!)



Just so you all know, I'll be in Florida next week on vacation with the BF. I may get a Mani Monday post up but otherwise I'll only be posting to social media, mostly on Instagram @manicurediaryblog if you want to follow me there. I hope everyone has a wonderful and happy holiday week no matter what you celebrate!

xoxo,
