Sweetheart VoxBox

Monday, March 11, 2013

I was so excited when I got the mail and discovered my very first VoxBox from Influenster! I had a blast testing out the products inside. Here's what I got. 

- Olay Fresh Effects {Va-va-vivid} Powered Contour Cleansing System
- Olay Fresh Effects {Shine shine go away} Shine Minimizing Cleanser
- Secret Clinical Strength Stress Response Deodorant
- SkinnyGirl Daily on-the-go bars
- Not Your Mother's Beach Babe Texturizing Sea Salt Spray


Olay Fresh Effects 
Pros 
Triangular shape makes it easy to get to hard to reach places like corner of your nose.
Rubber bristles make it really easy to clean afterwards.
Very small so it would be easy to take with you while traveling. 

Cons 
Doesn't spin like a Clarisonic does. It just vibrates. 
Requires AAA battery which I never seem to have.

Overall I really liked this product. Definitely doesn't compare to my Clarisonic but my face felt much cleaner that when I just wash my face with my hands. 

Not Your Mother's Sea Salt Spray
Pros
It smells pretty good. It has a salty ocean smell with a mix of tropical coconut.
Adds a TON of texture and volume to my hair. I had super thin hair that lays flat on my head most of the time. This was great for a little pick me up throughout the day to add some volume to my hair. 

Cons
It makes my hair a bit tangled. I would gladly sacrifice that for the extra texture and volume though. 

Overall I thought it was a great product. I would definitely use this again.

Secret Clinical Strength Stress Response Deodorant 
Pros
Glides on smoothly.
Nice smell. 
Lasts a long time.

Cons
This product really didn't have any cons. I was pretty happy with it.

Honestly I hardly ever use deodorant. I hardly ever sweat unless I'm doing a super intense workout but when I work out I like to sweat! It releases tons of toxins which is super healthy for you. 

Skinny Girl Daily On The Go Bars {Coco-nut}
Pros
Couldn't taste the protein or fiber.
Small and easy to take with you as a snack.
Great taste!

Cons
Expensive. A box of 5 is about $10!
I probably would have picked a different flavor. It was pretty good but wouldn't be my first choice. 

Overall I thought it was pretty good. I would probably try this product again.

I didn't get a picture of the products because I'm a dummy and didn't think about it until I wrote this post. I guess I know better for next time!

*I received these products complimentary from Influenster for testing purposes.*

  2. Thanks for the Olay fresh effects review...I think I am going to go with the Clarisonic. You are right about the Skinny Girl bars, overpriced!

    1. Influenster randomly picks people that join their site to send boxes to. If you want a definite monthly thing, try Birchbox or Glambag.
