Chapstick 100% Natural Lip Butters

I received some chapsticks not too long ago and figured they would be the same as they usually are. I love using them and I usually carry one with me at all times.

This time, I got three. And all different.

 

Sweet Papaya 

Green Tea Mint

and Pink Grapefruit.

While I immediately opened the Green Tea Mint, my daughter wanted the Pink Grapefruit. She is 4 after all and it said Pink... I loved them!! The grapefruit was very citrus-y and would be perfect for summer. The Sweet Papaya was next and had a nice, warm scent to it. I love it for fall. I use the Green Tea Mint all the time and it smells amazing. I was expecting it to smell too strongly of int, as they per usual. But this on didn't. And the Green Tea scent was there as ell. It is one of my favorite. I gave the Papaya to my mother in law and my daughter kept the Grapefruit.

All in all, we were all happy with them? Yes.

Would I buy them? Yes.

Are they Moisturizing? Yes.

Do they last all day? No.

Do they come off with wear? Yes.

How often did I reapply in one day? About 4 times.

 I say they are worth a try.

Thank you!

Kiss Lashes and Glue from JingleVoxBox

My mini review and application.

The lashes I received were larger than what I usually buy. That being said, I liked them and they were actually very comfortable. I had to pay attention a lot when I wore them, only because they kept hitting my glasses when I looked down or blinked. I pulled my glasses a little aways from my face and didn't have that problem as much.

The lash band was flexible, clear and easy to fit to my eye. I did clip them a little on the ends so they fit better. I do that to all lashes anyways. I think the end result was really nice and great for a night out or a party. I definitely wouldn't wear them for everyday use.

On to the lash glue. I got the Brush On Strip Lash Adhesive in Clear and with Aloe.

When applying the glue to the lash, its a milky white color and dries to a clear, almost translucent blue color that is not really noticeable unless under a bright light. It does get tacky fairly quickly and easy to adjust on the eye until its set and 'dries'.

The glue was very easy to apply and it stayed put for hours. It didn't hurt to peel them off. After I did, any excess glue was easily peeled off the lashes and anything left on my eye came off with my eye makeup remover.

To apply, I take the lashes off their plastic case and measured them to my eye. They come with a tad bit of glue on them already to keep them on the case. I use that glue to place the lashes on my eyes, one at a time. I start at the inner corner where I would put them every time I wear them. Then I look at the ends and see how much I need to cut off. I do a little bit, place back on my eye. If they need more cut off, I cut a little more and keep repeating until I get the length I want. It's always best to cut a little at a time and keep cutting, than to cut a bunch and not like how they look.

I then take the lashes, all cut and ready, and one at a time I pick them up with tweezers and apply a thin layer of glue on the band. I wait about 20-30 seconds or until I can see the glue turning slightly clear. I go from the top, pointing down towards my eye and place the lash straight down onto my own lash line, in the middle. I take the out most part of the lash and drag it to the place I want it and press down with a little pressure. Then press down, also using the tweezers, on the inner corner. I see if I like it and the lash band is all toughing my eyes and then using my fingers, press my real lashes and the fake lashes together.

I don't pre curl my lashes but I do apply a thin layer of mascara but not to the fake lashes.

That's it. Hope it helped. Also, there are plenty of YouTube videos that better explain it.

All in all, I loved both products and will continue to use both. I hope to go get more lashes more to my length and liking. I might also replace my beloved Ardell lash glue with this Kiss one!

Thanks Influenster and KISS!

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

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!

I Do VoxBox from Influenster (Long post...)

I was pretty excited to get the I Do VoxBox.

I was going to attend a wedding at the end of June. I didn't get the box in time but it would have been really helpful. Instead of using the items for the wedding, I used them in my everyday life.

I will list the items I got and my short review of each. I will also have some pictures and links listed below as well as my referral link for Influenster.

Skinnygirl Tasty Nutrition Bars

Est. $4.99 for 4

I got the Dark Chocolate Almond with Coconut.

I hate coconut lol

I don't like it at all or with anything. I don't like coconut water, milk, ect...

I just don't like it :(

But I love dark chocolate and sometimes almonds. I gave it my husband and daughter to try and my hubby said I had to at least try it. He said you could barely taste the coconut.

So, I tried it. And... It was Delicious!!!!

I could still taste the coconut but it was bad and it didn't have the coconut texture.

It was so good, you guys!! I actually want more and I cannot wait to try the other flavors.

The chocolate chip cookie dough... MINE!! ♥

All in all... GO get you some!

URGENTRx Ache & Pain Relief 

Est. $1.39

I did give this to my husband.

He works 9 hrs a day and during this time, in the sun...

So I told him to try it out. He also likes Lemon-Lime flavor :)

Although it does lessen the pain in his feet from standing all day and walking, it doesn't help his injury pain he's had for years. I would say its for just that, achy back or feet kind of pain from a strenuous day at work or out and about.

I cannot say how it would work for me, I am thinking we'll go buy some more and see what I think in a different flavor. He said it was tart and tasted like this old bottle pop candies?!

All in all... Not sure. Just go try it for yourself :)

Sahale Snacks Grab & Go

Est. $27.46 for 18

I got the Classic Fruit + Nut Blend trail mix.

Soooo gooood!!

I loved the whole mix! I sound like broken record but I liked this more than other other snack.

It had cranberries, apples, cashews (my fave ♥), and so much more!!

My husband and daughter liked them too! We're buying more lol

These are perfect for our walks we go on. We can go for a walk and be back in an hour or three...

It all depends and having a small snack like this for them while we're gone is perfect and we all love them. That is not an easy find! And a great price!

All in all... We will purchase over and over again!!

Indeed Labs nanoblur

Est. $19.99

I had never heard of this company before this box.

I used the Smashbox primer for awhile now and while I like just fine, I don't use primers a lot unless I'm going with a full coverage makeup look.

Smashbox has a silicone/silky feel to it and it makes me think of grease even though it isn't greasy. You know?!? Well nanoblur, doesn't feel like that at all. It super smooth and soft. Goes on nice. It's white out of the tube but clear on my skin. It has an almost sticky feel to my skin after I apply it. Not gross sticky or glue sticky. I don't know how to explain it :/

It just helps adhere my foundation better to my face!

And it creates a very smooth surface.

All in all... I'll have to wear it more for a better take on it but I like it so far!

Neutrogena Hand Cream

Est. $3.99

 OH MY GOODNESS!!

As you can tell from my blog and Instagram, I love doing my nails.

And while doing my nails, I use a lot of removers, acetone and things that dry out my nails, cuticles and hands. It's a pain and I'm basically a moisture junkie now!

I hold to my Burt's bees like no other and I use it everyday...

This just took its place!! It's so smooth and it leaves my hands so nice and soft.

My cuticles look good. My hands feel good!! All around amazing! 

You don't need very much. It goes a long way. 

All in all... I will be repurchasing!

 CoverGirl Outlast Stay Luminous Foundation

Est. $11.30

I got the Shade 810 Classic Ivory.

Don't know how they got that right?! Anywho, it matches my skin tone pretty close! If I buy a foundation, that's about the shade I get. Most times I have to get a lighter shade, if they make it. 

Most don't :(

But this shade is good. And a very nice coverage! I'd say it's full coverage, I don't have much to cover up. Not bragging!! I just have very dry skin and most foundations make me look flaky and gross.

I have to keep using this one to see how my skin reacts with it. So far so good.

All in all... Really love it so far.

CoverGirl Outlast Longwear Lipstick

I got the shade Pink Pow! and it's soft pink.

Goes on very smooth with a nice look. Build able for me.

I like the shade and feel. I lean towards more matte lips but I do like this one and I've been reaching for it more often than not lately.

I want to look into getting more colors!

All in all... Love!!!!

Carefree VoxBox from Influenster

 I was sent Carefree to review...

Carefree makes feminine hygiene products.

Some of the products they offer are; Pads, Liners and Tampons.

The liners I am reviewing are the acti-fresh body shape pantiliners, Regular To Go.

A tiny pack that has 20 liners. 

 Here is a snip from their website....

 Carefree Acti-Fresh Thin liners are designed to deliver freshness, 

thanks to an 8-hour odor control system.

Carefree Act-Fresh Thin liners feel as soft and thin as a panty, so all you feel is confident.

http://www.carefreeliners.com/product-details/acti-fresh-thin-pantyliners

This is what I did and did not like so far..

 ~Small size, perfect for your make up bag or purse.

~Really cute and girly packaging.

~Thin and able to fit into small spaces in my wallet.

~No weird smell that comes with some pads and liners.

~Great/Soft texture that doesn't irritate my sensitive skin!!

~They also have a really good hold, and the liners never moves 

or shifts on my panties throughout the day.

The only thing I was mildly concerned about was the liquid test I put it threw. I put a soaked tea bag on the liner on a tissue paper. It didn't leak through and it held together well. But when I took the bag off the liner and noticed it was rather full (like a pad but these are not meant to be used like a pad, so it's an almost unlikely situation), it felt like a diaper. That squishy feeling...

Although I doubt anyone lets a liner, or pad, get that full of anything... I just wanted to make sure it held. And it did. Just hope I don't ever feel the 'diaper/squishy' feeling when I wear one :)

All in all, I love them. I still do not get my period but I will soon and I like knowing that I'll have these!

So thank you Carefree and Influenster!
