Burt's Bees Intense Hydration

I only have dry skin on my lower chin/cheeks. It comes and goes It's weird. It's flaky and very noticeable. It's actually really embarrassing when I don't moisturize or forget to.

Along came Burt's Bee's Intense Hydration! I LOVE THE LOTION. I wish I would have got  full size of THAT because that stuff??? WOWZA! It got rid of my dry patches instantly.

The Night Cream? Love it tooooo! My mom didn't like the smell, but I didn't mind it!!! It soaks right into your skin. Doesn't leave it sticky or oily at all.

The Face wash is nice and creamy. Also, not oily. It leaves your skin feeling soft and CLEAN. The face mask is also really awesome. it's nice that you don't have to wash it all off because sometimes face care can be tedious.

 I love the fact that these products are 99.0% Natural. I will be buying a full size face lotion for sure!!! Thank You SO much for allowing me to be part of this campaign. It was truly awesome! If you have dry/sensitive skin this if definitely the way to go.

October Goop Birchbox

So..... Not that great.... My favorite boxes were the Teen Vogue Box and the Gossip Girl box. My boxes haven't been all that great and I think I am going to unsubscribe. If November's box is bad then I will. I just don't think it's worth it.

The only thing I like is the nail polish and the chap stick. I'm not even going to review them because it was so bad, lol.

The Essie color kind of reminds me of the color a hooker in the 90's would wear. Sorry! I am so just blah, that's all I have to say!

Influenster Beauty Blogger VoxBox!

I received the Influenster Beauty Blogger VoxBox!!!!! I tried the products and LOVED them!!! I will list them in the order on the card I got :)

                     Kiss Ever Pro Lashes Starter Kit: $5.99

Bring the salon home with this eyelash starter kit, complete with eyelashes, adhesive, and applicator. This latex-free glue has a 24-hour hold, for lashes you can bat all day and all night.

These lashes are good for someone who has sparse/short lashes. I have pretty long lashes so they looked a bit silly on me, haha. They'd be good for a costume or a long night out! I wouldn't wear them during the day. Still very nice though!!!! :)



                        Bath & Body Works Mini Candles: $3.50

Mini but mighty! Bath & Body Works Mini Candles provide an amazing fragrance experience exclusively developed and tested by a team of Home Fragrance experts, including the world's best master perfumers.

I must say. I LOVE this smell!! It reminds me of a certain someone... ;). When I first got my box I could smell it and it smelled so good!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I love it! It's so fragrant oh and did I mention it smells like a certain someone?!?!?! Lol. I also received a coupon for a 3 wick candle, for 10.00. (usually 19.95) Limit 5 candles per person. :)

                             EBOOST: $28 for box of 20

EBOOST will boost your mood, focus, and immunity with natural ingredients and no crash. As a shot or an easy-to-mix powder and in four flavors, you'll feel great whether you choose Orange, Pink Lemonade, Acai Pomegranate, or Super Berry.


This was a nice little extra. It was a bit tart. I don't think I liked the taste. For some reason, it tasted like metal??? I don't know. Maybe I'm weird! Lol.




                       Goody Simple Styles Spin Pin: $7.29

Never have the time for a great updo? Not anymore! The Goody Simple Styles Spin Pin allows you to easily achieve three chic updo styles. Simply twirl your hair up and spin the two Spin Pins in for a perfect undone bun, side bun or double bun!

So, I'm going to sort of review another product I received along with this. First I used the "Not Your Mothers Kinky Moves Curl Defining Hair Cream". I blow dried my hair about halfway dry and let the rest air dry. Then I put it up in a bun (Half up half down). I took it down 4 hours later and I had these awesome big no heat curls! Nice soft curls! That was a surprise! A nice one! 

I also like that these can actually hold my hair into place, because I have really thick hair. I am going to buy another set so I can do the double bun so I can have curls on the bottom as well!!! This was one ofmy favorites!!!

 Not Your Mother's Kinky Moves Curl Defining Hair Cream: $6.00 for 
                                   full sized 4oz bottle

Kinky Moves is infused with natural grape seed and jasmine to encourage natural curls and eliminate frizz and fly-aways.


I also love this. I blow dried my hair halfway and let the rest air dry. I had some nice waves. Instead of one big wave a had a few waves which is nice! Very good! Also read the above review for how to get no heat soft big curls!!!




                              Vitabath Fragrance Mist:

I got the Pomegranate and Blood Orange. I like the smell, however it gave me a headache! :(  I am really sensitive to smells though. I liked it though! Nice and summery!



In all, I LOVED this VoxBox! I can't wait to do another!!!!!!!!!!!!! Thank You Influenster!!!!!!

Influenster, influenster, influenster...

WOW! So I signed up with Influenster not too long ago. I didn't know quite what to do. They recently changed the layout of their site, which I LOVE because it's much easier to navigate!!

I received my Beauty Blogger VoxBox today!!! I was SOOOOO surprised  Pleasantly surprised! The first thing I noticed was the smell. SOMETHING smelled incredibly good inside. I got inside, opened it and squealed! Hahahaha. I cannot WAIT to try every single product!!!! OH, the thing that smelled so good was a white barn Bath& Body Works candle. I will post a picture and descriptions in a different blog post!

Thank You  SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO much Influenster!!! You guys rock my socks off! I hope I get more exiting unexpected things in the future! I know I will have a blast reviewing them and recommending the ones I love! (I am always telling people about stuff at work haha) Thanks again!!!!

Vocal Point

Let's see if I get anything to review!!!

Glade Expressions

So. I just recently got involved with something called Bzzagent. This Glade campaign is my first one and I am thoroughly satisfied. I tried out the Fuji Apple & Cardamom Spice. It smells DELIGHTFUL! I really do love it.

I am really picky when it comes to scents/smells because lots of them give me headaches. The Glade however, did NOT give me a headache. I have told everyone that it is comparable to Bath&Bodyworks, and it IS! A wallflower is 8.50 and a refill is 6.50. Glade is a much better price. I will be stocking up on this Fuji Apple one! :)

Nail Polish....

SO....


My sister came and visited from New York, and she is a BAD BAD influence!!!
I always liked doing my nails but I never really took the time and I always did a plain old solid color. Now that she came here, I have changed my nails 3 times in 2 weeks... lol.

I bought some pretttyyyy pretty colors. I have also always loved sparkley things. I LOVE GLITTER!!!! I ended up spending 22.00 on polish at Sally's lol.




           This is my current. My camera sucks....

   I suck at this... lol hahaha Pictures don't do 'em justice though

                          That took 5 coats of glitter!!!!!

And there you have it!!! I am also super impatient, so that doesn't help any. They all looked very awesome in person.  :)

January Birchbox

January's Birchbox is AWESOME!!!!

"For starters, overhaul your complexion with a smart moisturizer that uses glycolic acid to revitalize dull skin. Keep your limbs equally healthy with a silky soap loaded with antioxidants. Now that you have the basics down, revamp your eye makeup with a pop of color: stila’s velvety liner does the trick. You’ll also find a lovely scent to update your fragrance wardrobe and a tasty snack to help you ward off vending machine cravings.

We’ve also included a list of our favorite mind, body, and soul detoxes, plus a Birchbox magnet so that you can fasten reminders to your fridge. Online, you’ll find in-depth info about your products, as well as a video tutorial of a rosy winter makeup look, tips to avoiding skin freakouts, and much more."

This month's box included the following:

ORIGINS Checks And Balances™ Frothy Face Wash
When they say use a small amount, they really do mean USE A SMALL AMOUNT, lol. A little goes a LONNNNNNNNNNNNG way. It is so awesome!! It has a minty smell to it, yet not overbearing. Leaves skin feeling soft :)

Juicy Couture
I'm sorry, but this smells like ass!!! Lol, I hate it!!!!!!

stila Smudge Stick Waterproof Eye Liner
I received the color "Lionfish" It is a copper shiny brown color. Once it's on, IT'S ON! which is nice if your eyes water a lot like mine!!

Archipelago Pomegranate Body Soap
This is my FAVORITE!!! It smells so so so so good!!! I need to buy one! I'm not usually a fan of bar soap, but this? WOWZA.

LÄRABAR Mini Bars
Eh..........


Everything is sold out on Birchbox besides the Juicy Couture and the bar thingie, which is annoying!!! I got my box late, since they are based in NY and I am in California!!! They got to order all the good stuff before I even had a chance to! lol.


So, that is this month's box!! You should really sign up if you haven't already!!
