Frosty VoxBox Review!!!

So I recently joined Influenster. It's this really cool site where you can write reviews about products you've used and read different reviews on things you might be thinking about trying. Well they have this thing called a VoxBox that they send out every month or so to people if you're selected. If you're really "influential" hence Influenster. Meaning if you write lots of reviews and post to social media about such etc.

I was so excited when they emailed me to tell me that I was going to be selected to receive a VoxBox. Low and behold within a few days I got mine in the mail. Check out what was in the box below!

                                       I was so happy when I came home to see this on my porch!


Look at it in all it's Influenster glory! Magical. Just Magical.


First things first. The food. Of course this was the first thing I was drawn to. As soon as I opened the box it was like "yes I was hoping they were going to put food in here!" As you can see I couldn't wait to take a picture before eating it. Like I said. I was very excited. These were pretty good I have to say. Though I don't particularly like cherry flavored things in general. I didn't think I would like them that much but they weren't too bad. I've never tried Red Vine brand before. I'v only had Twizzlers, Though I have heard of them. They had a tangy kind of taste to them which I really liked. Over all I would definitely buy them. I would just buy them in strawberry instead.


I was beyond excited when I saw this there! I just ran out of my beloved Mary Kay eye makeup remover. I've never tried Rimmel's version  but I have a pretty good feeling about their's. I'm gonna need this a bunch in the coming weeks I'm sure.  Especially with the holidays and festivities and such going on. There is no worse feeling to me than going to bed with a crap load of gunk on your face. It just feels icky. I'm sure I won't have to worry about that with this baby though.



Thyme. Oh thyme. To be honest, thyme is one those seasoning I never really know what to do with. However I do love to cook and experiment with different things so I'm definitely going to be hardcore pinterest-ing some thyme recipes that I can whip up with this stuff. Perhaps I'll write about my thyme endeavers on here? Until then it shall sit pretty in my very extensive seasoning cupboard.


Round brushes scare me. Is that weird? Ok well not the brushes themselves but the thought of trying yet another hair adventure that will probably go horribly, horribly wrong. Don't get me wrong. I love trying to do new hairstyles and the like. It just seems I can never get it right. I have tried to do blowouts before and it totally didn't work out for me. I'm sure I would get better with more practice but still. Getting this brush though kind of makes want to try again. Back to the pinterest board we go!

Can I just say I am so excited to try this?! I love skincare products. I think their my favorite beauty "genre". I also think you're never to young to use anti aging products. I'm kind of sad it's only a sample but it is the most expensive product in the whole box so that's probably why. Although it's a pretty decent sized sample so I'm sure i'm going to be able to get a handful of uses out it. Plus it came with a coupon so I can go get some when I'm done! I love me some coup-ins! ;)



All my black eyeliners seem to just keep disappearing. I'm not sure how. It's kind of like my favorite purple Essie nail polish that I lose every few months and then when I find it it's like when Ben Gates finds the national treasure for first time. And the second. Anyway. Ya. It's like that. So I was very happy to see some in this box. It looks like it's very smooth and glides on. I can't wait to use super soon! I wonder if I can make a new record for myself before losing it?

I love, love, love tea! I also love, love, love Celestial Seasonings. I am a bit skeptical about the candy cane flavor but I'm willing to try just about any tea flavor from this brand! It's always fun to try their new limited time seasonal teas. This with a little bit of wildflower honey in it. Divine. This one also came with a coupon which I certainly be using!

I loved this color the second I saw it! The picture really doesn't do it justice. It's called Sugar Plum and it's a great holiday color. It's a great color for anytime really. As soon as I saw it I started mentally going through outfit ideas in my head of what would look great with it. This is the kind of color that I feel like it could be more bold but also more neutral if you do it right. Plus NYC lipsticks are usually pretty good and they're really decently priced. They always seem to go on pretty smooth. Will be loving this one I'm sure.

I was so happy that I got chosen for a VoxBox! I definitely didn't expect it. There were some really cool things in here that I can't wait to use! After getting this box I undoubtedly want to keep writing reviews and such to see what else might be in store for the future. :)

I received these products complimentary from Influenster for testing purposes.

Blogging,blogging,and more blogging

Ok, so this is my first official blog post. I should admit that I kind of have no idea what I'm doing. Like at all. I think I might actually have blog fright. It's like stage fright but you know...a blog. Anywayyy thanks for stopping by! Unless no one  reads this, then I guess not thank you? See. This is what I mean. Oh ya by the way, you should know I get distracted a lot. It just happens. It can't be stopped. I'm not really sure what kind stuff one is supposed to write about in their first blog post. Is there a WikiHow for that sorta thing? Probably. I'm kind of temped to look now. I'm afraid you'll judge me though. Ya I'm too lazy to actually. Well in summary this is going to be a blog about life. Mine. Not yours. Just so we're clear. Not everything in my life though because that could get fairly boring. Things in my life that I like, like beauty and fashion related things and food. Oh and food! There's also a good chance that I might change my blog name a few more times until I decide on the one. Until then I'm just gonna take it one letter at time. Because you can only type one letter at a time. I'm gonna stop now.
