JingleVoxBox from Influenster. A Small Reveiw.

Late posting this but not too much.

I didn't get the box in time for Christmas but it's okay. I still got to enjoy the products and will continue to enjoy them. A lot of what I got I am still using. I will jump in and show and tell what I received. Remember, I received these products free from Influenster for testing review purposes and all opinions are my own. Thank you.

Lets get to it!

First, when I opened the box I saw a cute stuffed toy.

 It was Rapunzel from Tangled and from Hallmark. They are called Itty Bittys and are so cute!! My daughter loves the one I got and would have been really excited to find it in her stocking, had I gotten it in time. She was still stoked though, so win win!

Not a lot to review on this one for me. Great quality item for sure. Adorable! She wants more. I wish there was a closer Hallmark to me, but there isn't. We used to live in walking distance to one in Bend, if they had them there, I would have bought them all. You should go check them out for yourself. 

I will leave their info below, as well as all the products mentioned in this post.

Next, COOKIES lol

I got three packs of the most Delicious little snack cookies from Briscoff.

They tasted so good. Everyone loves them, I had to fight to keep one for testing and a picture or two.

Needless to say, we bought more... They are small and great for on the go snacks as well as a little treat after a long day. I love enjoying mine with a warm cup of tea and just relax. 

Definitely go check these out. They are not too sweet but they do have a taste. Not like most, where its like crackers or dry cookies. These are really good. We think so at least ♥

Cetaphil Moisturizing Cream

I already have a review on this one. That went up when I got the box. I was very impressed with it and wrote a review early but still love the product and still use it. I will link that as well as where to find it.

KISS Lash Adhesive and Lashes 

The glue I got, I really like. It lasts awhile for me, but I'm at home or running errands. I have not worn them out to a party or for a long night, if you buy them and do, I would love to know how well they last. The glue is Latex free, Formaldehyde free and with Aloe. It dries clear. I really do love this lash glue. It works for me!

The lashes I got are a bit extreme for me though. I still love them but I reserve them for special occasions or a party. I wear glasses and big lashes bother me sometimes because they can touch my lens and it feels weird to me. The ones I got are Posh. They are a bit thicker than my normal ones and longer. Glamorous is the word I'm looking for lol

They aren't 'heavy' feeling to me but like I said I haven't really worn them that much for a very long time. I have been looking at other to purchase, namely Chic or Ritz! 

They look a little more natural for me.

Ice nail polish in French Kiss

This is such a beautiful blue polish! Its opaque in two thin coats. A very smooth creme. I thinks its going to be perfect for my 4th of July nails. It's just the right shade. Love the formula. Cannot say enough good things about this polish. It's that good. And the price is amazing. The only downfall, I have not been able to find it in a store near me and everywhere I look online doesn't have it... :/ 

I don't know if I got the wrong name printed on it or what?! I will keep looking though.

NYC City Proof 24hr Waterproof eyeliner pencil

 In the shade 931 Black.

SUPER creamy and easy to apply. I use it in my water line and love it. I can never get a good tight line because my eyes water too much and it smears and eventually fades from top and bottom lash lines. But this really did stay put and last for hours! Not 24, I wiped it off but it was difficult to remove as well. I will be buying more of this! The price is amazing and the only drugstore liner that has worked for me. SO HAPPY I got this. It is now a staple of mine ♥

And last but not least...

Ore-Ida Tator Tots

I got a coupon for a bag of them. I already liked and ate these before, so nothing new. They are still really good and now they have a ton of recipes to try with them! Not too expensive, we don't eat a lot of tots around here. There is some cheaper and just as good tots to buy. I don't get over excited about these but food is food for us. Yes, I love to cook 'gormat' and try new things but I also love tot casserole and make it all the time. Not being snobbish here... We don't always have the money or room for a big bag of tots in the freezer... Thank you. We all do enjoy these and buy them from time to time. The recipes sound amazing and we will be trying a few!

4th of July 2015 / 4 Year Anniversary

This year was one of the best 4th of July we have had in a very long time!

We went out to our friends house and had a great day in the river and sun.

A mush needed break and weekend! We all had so much fun. Even though I burned so bad.

It's been 4 days and I can just now move with minimal pain in my shoulders and legs.

I am very fair and thought I had enough sunscreen on, apparently I didn't and now I'm paying for that. Please always wear sunscreen!! ♥

Our daughter had a terrific time and she got to float the river in a inflatable cooler :)

Still makes me laugh thinking about it. She luckily did not burn but has a slight tan in her arms now.

I did end up doing my nails for the occasion. Several times until I ended up with very simple nails and I loved them. 

I will show them down below. 

I will also make a post on some summer nails I have done so far and I need to remember to blog more. Still... :/ What can I do?!?

I didn't end up taking a lot of pictures, we were just having fun for the weekend. I did take some and our friend took some. I don't know if I'll post any of those yet. We didn't watch the local fireworks show. It wasn't very good and didn't last long. I will be taking some pictures of the fair and the fireworks show this weekend! And the county fair and rodeo is also coming up, which we plan to go see. There isn't mush going on otherwise.

We're just staying cool in the heat. Going to the park and water for some fun and rest.

General summer activities ♫ ♪ ♥

For now, I think we are just enjoying our time together and the weather. It's been a strange feeling for me. Not doing anything but loving our own company and not bothering with people we don't want to be around. We're keeping drama out of our lives and the people who bring it.

We are staying positive and moving forward. I like it.

I'll now be able to go back to working out more than my legs. I never really realized how important my shoulders were to my range of motion... 

I know, I'm weird. Anywho, that is all for now and I'll be back soon with some more nail art and possibly lots of pictures. I stopped posting those for a while, mainly due to lack of confidence and drive. But I don't give a hoot what people say about me or my photos. ♥

Goodbye for now

My first set. Loved them! The blue paint stained so bad..

And I did my Daughters too!!

Second set. I really liked them but the red would bleed so bad.

So I redid them and kept them white with glitter.

And my Cinderella nails (right hand) were left simple too.

Products on nails used are:

First Mani- Red, White and Blue Acrylic Paint

Stars are stamped with BM-H25 stamping plate from Bundle Monster

Last Mani- Same red and blue from above and same glitter topper. 

I stamped the star burst with Sally Hansen White On and

Bundle Monster BM-H14 from the collection above.

My daghters nails were all done in acrylic paints and a top coat.

And yes, I know I need a fill. I'll do it soon!!

Valentines Day Nail Struggle

So for Valentines Day, I wanted to do something very cute and girly with my nails.

Even though we won't be going out, I wanted to do it for myself.

But then I had to come up with a cute but simple design...

It's a lot harder than I thought it was going to be.

I did a couple simple ones and had my daughter help me on others. She loves picking out the colors. We also did her nails and eventually I did end up doing one I really liked.

I will list the the colors I used below all the pictures.

Here are some of my attempts at my own Valentines Day Nails:

Summer nails

I like summer. Nor as much as fall and winter, or spring for that matter, but I love the colors that go with summer.
Bright and sometimes neon nails!!
I like bright colors. I don't wear them as much cause I don't tan. I'm not against tanning, I just can't. I burn... But when I tan, I just look really red - ish brown and kinda dirty lol
I have a creamy white with pink tint skin. It's not the best for tanning but I still like the summer sun. Recently though I have had some good luck with tanning my arms, but then it looks weird compared to the rest of my body lol
So on the nails...
Here is three nail designs I did for summer so far, with the help of my daughter!!
I hope you enjoy and on Monday I'm thinking of making a small tutorial on one of them!!
Thanks for reading!

Jelly Sandwich Nails

I love Jellies out there and I don't have many. I think I have 3.
But then I found a way to make the look of jelly nail polish without the polish. Not as good but still looks cute! This was my first try! I liked but got better at it. Just thought I would show you how I did it and a few different ways I have since!

Here it goes:
First you need a sheer polish of any color.
Contrasting glitter polish and/or creme polishes.
For this one, I used both. I also used a white base color because my nails didn't look their best lol

Apply your normal base coat, and let dry.
Apply 2 coats of any white polish. I used Sally Hansen Xtreme Wear White On.
Let each coat dry before applying another coat.
It looked like this:

 

 

When that is dry. Add a layer of your chose of glitter. I used this one:

Let that dry. It looked like this.

 After all that was dry. I added a thin layer of the sheer pink. It looked like this.

 

Not much difference. But a bit faded. When it dried, I took my pin from my sewing kit and added some dotted flowers. When those were dry, I added another layer of the sheer pink.

Finish with a top coat and your done!

Super easy to do and a lot of different way to do this. I also have done just glitter. I used a sheer blue, a chunky multi colored glitter and layered them like above. It turned out great!! I have also skipped the glitter and just done flowers. One or two flowers, sheer layer, then another flower and then another sheer layer. Loved that effect of floating flowers!!

Thanks for reading!
