In the interest of full disclosure, I received complimentary product from Influenster for testing purposes. I was not compensated for my post and all opinions are my own.
My latest voxbox showed up on the doorstep last week, the J'Adore! Included in my box was (links will take you to product detail pages): Kiss Looks So Natural Lashes, milk chocolate Hershey's Kisses, Vaseline Mens Spray Lotion, Boots Botanics Shine Away Ionic Clay Mask, John Frieda Frizz Ease 3-Day Straight Flat Iron Spray, and Red Rose Simply Indulgent Teas. I took some time to try each one out, and here are my thoughts on them!
If you haven't heard about it, Influenster (the company who sent me the voxbox) is, according to their website: "a free-to-join community of trendsetters, social media masterminds, and educated consumers who live to give opinions of products and experiences. Influenster invites its most active members to participate in exclusive VoxBox programs where members receive complimentary products to test and review. In exchange, we ask our members to do what they already love to do: share their opinions with their friends & followers on social media!"
Anyway, here are the reviews of the products I got this time!
Red Rose Simply Indulgent tea: I am going to be honest and say that I am not a huge tea drinker. When I do drink it, it's at work and needs to have honey in it. I had a cup after my lunch break on Monday and it was just the perfect blend of warm and sweet. The smell was just incredible, even my coworker commented how good it smelled. I would give this one four stars out of five and would probably buy this to drink at work.
Kiss lashes: I am a first time user, so this was a HARD one for me. I have naturally long, dark lashes (don't hate!) but once I was able to apply the lashes they did make them look more full and a little longer. The adhesive was really hard for me to use and then get the lashes applied in the correct spot along my lash line. Once they were on they looked great. I wasn't able to get a good picture though. I give this three out of five stars only because they probably aren't the best option for a falsie newbie.
Hershey's Kisses: You know that our family just loved them. I shared a couple pictures Wednesday of my girls "blowing kisses" It was pretty fun to enjoy them together. No question the kisses got five stars from
Vaseline men's spray lotion: I had Jimmy try this one out. Says it works great. Pretty easy to use, but when you spray it on, it doesn't feel like it's enough, takes a couple sprays to get enough. When you first put it on you don't really notice it, but after a few minutes you can definitely. He also thought it smelled kinda funny, kinda like bug spray. He would rate this a four and a half and would buy it again if it had a different scent.
Clay mask: I used this mask as a mask virgin. I had never used one before, so I had nothing to compare it to. As directed, I used it on my clean face (right out of the shower). First thing I noticed was that it was a lot runnier then I was expecting.
Flat iron spray: I tried this the same morning I tried the lashes. My hair is normally pretty curly and I usually use some mousse and play up the curls. I sprayed the suggested seven sprays to my wet hair and then combed it through. I am not a huge fan of the flat iron (I'm always scared I will burn my hair off) but I did blow dry it. The spray didn't straighten my hair, but it did loosen the curls a lot. Again, I don't have a picture, but my coworkers all agreed. One suggested that I style it a bit differently and I think I will do that next time. I am sure if I were someone with just a little curl, it would have worked, but my hair just isn't ideal for this product. I am planning to try it again though. This one gets four out of five stars because I was able to see some results and really think it would work well on the right hair type. It also did really good at calming my frizzies.
I have pretty sensitive skin and as soon as I wiped my face clean the skin felt pretty tender. It didn't make my face break out but it did feel almost painful.
This is a fun box! I need to get on it and write some reviews so I can qualify for one soon!
ReplyDeleteI have been pretty lucky with this program. This is my third voxbox =)
DeleteMy mask was real thin at first. Try shaking it, it thickens up. :-)
ReplyDeleteI did shake it. We will see how it goes this weekend. =)
