Hey guys! Time for another Influenster VoxBox! I was SO excited when I found out I was getting this one because I've tried MaryKay in the past, loved it, AND this box gives me everything I need for a complete makeup look. Let's jump down to see what was included and swatches of the products!

Each piece came individually wrapped in sturdy boxes so nothing was broken or out of place. That was a relief!

You can't apply your makeup without a few brushes right? Included in this VoxBox was a powder brush and an eye brush for the cream eye shadow. Already making my life easier!

So, I always set my under eyes first, then apply my other makeup, then run a brush over my entire face when it's done. Having this loose translucent powder is fantastic for all of the setting I usually do. It blends right into my skin and leaves just a tiny hint of shimmer. You could probably use this as a light highlighter too.

Here is the bronzing powder in the light-medium shade. I am always in the market for new bronzers and blushes so this was GREAT to have in the VoxBox. My face can go from very light to very dark during the summer and I think this shade will work well on me even during my tan summer days. It's got a bit of shimmer to it which helps it to appear on the skin a little bit if I'm ever to the point where I match this shade.

A cute pink blush is always appreciated. Again, you can never have enough blushes in your makeup collection, right?

Here are some quick swatches of both the bronzer and the blush. I simply love these two and will be reaching for them often.

Next up is the cream eye shadow. I don't have many cream shadows but they do come in handy when I'm trying to quickly put on a face. This is such a great neutral color and looks good on its own if you're in a hurry. A few swipes of your finger or shadow brush and your eye look is basically complete!

I haven't mastered gel eye liner yet but I do love the formula of this one. For me, gel liner takes a lot of patience and a good brush. I was pretty happy with the performance of this liner brush. It isn't too thick and bulky and I can get an even line.

When it comes to mascaras, I am very picky because I have the most annoying lashes in the world. I do like having brushes that look like this one because it grabs onto my lashes and glides right through them with no problems. If this was a waterproof formula, then I'd probably wear it all the time.

Finally, finish off the look with this super shiny lip gloss! It's just sheer enough that I can wear it anywhere. I love the sparkle in it. Would you wear this color?

Hey all! I've got a really awesome Influenster box to show you today! The box was specifically for these Sally Hansen Complete Salon Manicure polishes! I was so excited to have a box dedicated to one brand and one product. Check out the swatches below for my thoughts!

First up is Jaded. This was a 3-coater but I'm still so in love with it. It;'s a cross between a minty green and a sea foam green. The formula is flawless and the color is amazing!

 Red My Lips is a 2-coat red polish with a jelly-like formula. The color payoff is super and vibrant! If you have to have red in your collection, I highly recommend this one.

Pat on the Black is a super dark red wine/burgundy color that looks fab during the cold months of the year. It applies in 2 coats and in certain light, looks almost black because of how deep the pigment is. I think a color like this is absolutely necessary in everyone's nail polish collection.

Who else is an Influenster??? Did you get the Rose VoxBox? I was so excited to get mine. Today's post is going to focus on the Kiss Gradation Polish Kit in Film Noir. I had seen these before but I had never bought one for myself. I'm glad it was in here because honestly, I SUCK at nail gradients.

So, these kits retail for about $6.99 and can be found at your local Walgreens. This was pretty easy to do. Although I could have done a better job, with practice, I'll be a gradation expert in no time!

Below are all three steps needed to create a beautiful gradient on your nails. Step 1 is a sheer metallic formula that requires 2 coats to begin your gradation process. Step 2 is a darker sheer metallic that you should apply to the bottom third of your nail. If you nails are short like mine, then go a bit higher. Step 3 is supposed to go over the bottom HALF of your nail and is supposed to blend the colors together to create a nice gradient.

How do you think I did? Let me know how yours turned out! If you'd like to be an Influenster too, message me your email and I'll send you an invite!

So the first thing you have to do is insert the wax refill into the warmer, re-cap it, and plug it in for 30 minutes. This gives it time to heat up the entire cartridge and give you an interruption-free waxing experience.

After it has warmed, test out the roller on some paper. If it glides on smooth, you're ready to go. Below is my 2nd swipe on my leg. *HAIRY LEG ALERT*

At first glance, it doesn't look like there is enough wax to pull up anything. Well, it's enough. There were some swipes that I went over once more giving me 2 layers of wax, but I'd say that it wasn't completely necessary.

On average, I use 3 strips [of any brand] on each leg. This was the same with the Veet Kit. I was also able to re-use the wax after the initial application. This helped with any stray hairs left behind.

So, compared to other waxing products I have used in the past, it's great. It is better than Veet's wax strips but equal to the Nads wax strips and Nads gel. It's also better than Nair's wax strips....is there one more brand I'm missing? Probably, but this EasyWax Kit is better than that, too!

I would give this a 4 out of 5 on my scale just because it still left a few strays, which is what most at-home wax kits will do. It also depends on your hair and how long/thick it is.

I'm not sure of the places you can buy this--I assume your local drugstore, Target, or Walmart. The price may vary but Veet has a $2 on their Facebook Page if you want to try this. More info on this kit HERE.

Thanks for checking out my wax post! I hope you learned something about a new product. See you next time!

So, I was very interested in this product that Influenster sent as part of the Holiday Vox Box. The Goody QuikStyle Paddle Brush has microfibers within the bristles to help dry your hair quicker.

As just a brush, I found that it did not dry my hair that well. In combination with my hair dryer, It shaved off a good 3 minutes from my normal dry time.

I'd really like to try the round brush because that's what I usually use in my hair routine.

It's also very easy to clean. Removing hair from the brush is simple and if the microfibers get flat, just simply hit the back of the brush and they'll stand right up again. =)

This post will be about the new Kiss Nail Dress polish strips I received from my Influenster Holiday Vox Box. They are polish strips with little accents on them are are sort of 3D. They are bumpy and have texture to them.

I have used regular polish strips before and they are super convenient for on the go. I didn't know how these were going to go, but pictured below is my very first try at them. 

So, I'm always very weary about lip gloss because the moment it hits food, a cup, or my hubby, it comes right off!

Well, this one is no different, BUT, I really love the color (Nude York City) and the smell of it. It is the perfect nude color to wear to work or if you just need something glossy on your lips. The brush is super soft and flexible which makes it easy to apply.

I received this product complimentary to test through Influenster’s VoxBox program.

I was so very impressed with this energy drink. Mostly because it had no artificial sweeteners which I hate! I was a little apprehensive about trying this for the first time, but when I made it, it was delicious! Tasted just like pink lemonade. Since I was also a little sick when I drank this, it did help me get a little energized.

I had never heard of this product before I received it in my Influenster Holiday Vox Box. I might have to invest in some more for me and my husband who drinks many different kinds of energy supplements.

Good morning! Why not start your day off with a convenient oatmeal selection? Influenster sent me this as part of their Holiday Vox Box. I was excited to try it because a while back, my friend used to bring in oatmeal with frozen berries for her breakfast. This seemed like a similar thing.

As with any instant oatmeal, you have be careful of the amount of water or milk you add. It can get thick very easily. Mine got really thick after about 5 minutes into eating it. You can add water to loosen it up.

Over all, I think this is a great product for on the go. I would like to try some of their other flavors including the apple one. That just sounds divine.
