Unboxing! Influenster Jolly VoxBox 2013

Hello again everyone! I have a fun post for you all today. I know my blog is normally about all things nails, but sometimes it's fun to do something different. Today I'm going to be reviewing my Jolly VoxBox that I received from Influenster a few days ago. What's Influenster, you ask? Influenster is a company that sends out boxes of goodies(VoxBox is what they call these boxes). All they ask is that your review the products. They are helping companies hear our voice on what we would like out of a product. They want our real opinion. You don't get paid for reviewing the products, but you do receive products to try out. The best part of all of it is that Influenster is FREE! You can sign up here, or someone can invite you. Once you sign up, you can write reviews on their site, and do other tasks to increase your score. The higher your score the more likely you are to receive something to review. So, go get signed up and start working on your score so you can receive some great products!!! Ok, now that I've explained a little about Influenster let's get into the fun part. What I go in my Jolly VoxBox!

I did an unboxing video you can watch it here





Here is what my Jolly VoxBox looked like before I opened it. It was a nice festive shade of red. Perfect for Christmas!


Here is what I Saw when I first opened the box. As you can see this box is packed full of goodies. It's so exciting to see what comes in each box.



The front of the card reads,
Can you hear the children's laughter? Do you see the candy-colored lights lining the street? Can you taste the thrill in the air?

It's the most wonderful time of the year: Filled with treasure to keep you smiling from ear to ear, the Jolly VoxBox is finally here!



The back of the cared has all the information about the products that are in the box. I'll tell you what it says about each product and my opinion of each product with each picture.


The card says,
Skinny Cow Candy: $3.99 a box, or $1.09 a bar or pouch. TA DA! Presenting almost too good to be true Skinny Cow Candy! Unbelievably chocolaty. Melt-in-your-mouth madness. Perfectly yummy portions. Skinny Cow's line of candy weighs in at 110 - 130 calories. So if you've been avoiding the candy isle, welcome back. You're going to feel like a kid in a candy store.

What do I think?
I love it! I get to try a full size box, which includes 6 packs of Peanut butter creme chocolates. Each pack has 3 pieces, and is only 130 calories per pack.To be honest peanut butter candies aren't normally my favorite, but these really are great. They were very creamy, and the peanut butter flavor wasn't overpowering. They tasted almost like a caramel filled chocolate with just a hint of peanut butter. Which is just how I like it. I will definitely be getting more of Skinny Cow candy.


Hmmmm wonder which product we will look at next?


The card says,
Puffs Ultra Soft & Strong To Go Tissue Pack: $0.49/ single pack
Puffs Ultra Soft & Strong To Go is still our best non-lotion facial tissue to use in the car, for-on-the-go, wherever you go!

What do I think? 
Well I'm a little confused by the non-lotion portion of the card. Seeing as the very first thing I see on my package of tissues says "plus lotion". Aside from that, I love these tissues. They are very soft and gentle, but strong enough to do their job as well. I love having a pack of these in my purse at all times.



What the card says,
Ducklings Mini Rolls: $2-$3 
Excellent for repair, crafting, and imaginative projects. High performance strength and adhesion characteristics. Tears easily by hand without curling, and conforms to uneven surfaces. Ducklings are perfect for small repairs, trimming out projects or for when you just need a little tape.

What do I think?
I think I would have been a little bit more excited had I gotten a different print. This one isn't really my taste, but that's ok. I will find something to use this on. I'm crafty, and I'm sure it will work perfect for one of my crafts. I love Duck brand tape, it's a little pricey, but worth it. The mini size is very cute, and will work better for many of your smaller projects. 




What the card says,
NYC New York Color HD Color Trio Eye Shadow: $2.99
HD Color Trio Eye Shadow delivers high intensity color with a silky soft texture. This lightweight formula blends effortlessly for the ultimate smoky eye look. 
The color I got was: Long Beach Sands

What I think?
This is the product I was most excited to try out. I love natural eye looks and this trio is perfect for that. I wore this trio to our family Christmas. I got many compliments, and it lasted all night. It did blend very easily, and the colors were perfectly pigmented. Not too heavily pigmented that they were hard to work with, but enough color pay off to look great. If you love natural eye looks, I would say run out and get this. I think I will do a whole post on this with pictures of the eye look I achieved using it. So, look forward to that!




What the card says,
Rimmel London Show Off Lip Lacquer: $5.49-$5.99
It's the end of colors as you know it! The intense rich color of a lipstick combined with an invincibly smooth lacquer shine. Available in 14 shades.

What do I think?
I was so excited to try this product out. I mean after all it is named after my Maltese Luna. I've heard so many good things about these lip lacquers. I wish I had gotten a more pink based color, but I did love the formula. I loved the applicator. It was very different from any I had tried before. It picked up the perfect amount of product without having to dip the wand over and over. It lasted well, and didn't dry my lips out. It was very pigmented, and felt very nice on my lips. I can't wait to try out the other colors!
