YSL VoxBox Unboxing and Review!

A few weeks ago, I had the pleasure of receiving a very special and quite frankly, AWESOME VoxBox from Influenster. As many of you know, I LOVE VoxBoxes and I LOVE makeup, so this was a total win for me. This is the first VoxBox I've gotten that was dedicated to just makeup too, so it was double awesome. Yes everyone, meet my Yves Saint Laurent Mascara VoxBox!

The product I received is Yves Saint Laurent's Volume Effet Faux Cils Mascara in high density black. I'd never tried this brand before, but had heard great things since it's such an iconic, high end brand and was thrilled to have the opportunity to try it. I'm usually hesitant to buy really expensive high end makeup without having tried something from the brand first, so this was a win win for me.

Apparently, this is their original formula mascara that they have brought back. My opinion is that it is basically the best mascara I've ever used. I received it like right after I had just bought some Kat Von D mascara that I was loving, and it immediately took the place of it. This mascara has a beautiful black, black color and you can layer the hell out of it without any clumping whatsoever. I generally use like at least three layers of mascara every time I apply it, so this is perfect for me! It also lasts ALL DAY long and doesn't like flake off onto your face. Even though it lasts all day, it is quite easy to remove with a little eye makeup remover which is awesome too. 

Here's a photo of my results!

I probably should have tweezed my eyebrows before I took this huh? LOL Anyway, you can see here that there is no visible clumping and no fall out! My lashes are wonderfully voluminous without looking too heavy in my opinion!

I'm definitely interested in trying more products from Yves Saint Laurent now that I've tried this. Especially the eyeshadow and blush they are advertising with this VoxBox! I wish I'd received some for sure to go with this fabulous mascara!

Influenster Frosty VoxBox PLUS Bonus Reviews!

It's that time again!!! Voxbox time!! My favorite time!! What's a VoxBox you ask!? A fabulous, wonderful, AMAZING box full of goodies courtesy of Influenster to try and review!!! This time around I received the Frosty VoxBox!! Here is what I received and some thoughts:

My box!!!

So it's been probably like a month since I got my Voxbox and I think I'm finally done sampling everything in it. I unfortunately have since broken my phone that I had when I originally took all the photos, but I have a few of them left to go along with this review! I received:

A card with everything and prices!

• No. 7 Protect and Perfect Advanced Sample - I really really like this stuff. I'd definitely never heard of it before and tried it right away. I received a pretty good sized sample packet that gave me a few uses. It makes my face SUPER soft and works well under makeup or for use at night. I'll definitely consider using this in the future. Full Size Price: $27.99
• NYC Expert Last Lip Color in Sugar Plum - I'm pretty sure I got one of these lipsticks in the last VoxBox I received, but in a different color. I liked it then, and I like it better now. This time around I received the color "Sugar Plum", and it's really really pretty and perfect for winter!!! These are so cheap too at only $1.99 for a fullsize lippie! I'm sold! 
  
• Celestial Seasonings Candy Cane Lane Decaf Green Tea - I love all peppermint tea, as well as Celestial Seasonings brand, so this was a win! A great tea!! Full-Size Price: $3-4
• Eco Tools Hair Brush - I've been using this brush, and only this brush since I received it. I saw mixed reviews online, but overall I really love mine!!! It doesn't pull my hair really bad, and is just the right size for me. I love mine! Price: $10.99
• Rimmel Gentle Eye Makeup Remover - Influenster pretty much got me hooked on Rimmel products awhile back. I LOVE them. This works pretty well, but honestly, I kind of wear an excessive amount of eye makeup, so it took a bit of product to take off all my makeup. I'll probably be sticking to just their makeup line, but if you don't wear an insane amount of eye makeup, this would work well for you! Price: $7.49
• Rimmel Scandaleyes Waterproof Kohl Kajal Eyeliner - This little baby has become my new emergency eyeliner for touchups that stays in my purse at all times. It's super black, and I really like it alot. I don't typically use pencil liners for everyday use, just for touch-ups and my purse, but this is PERFECT!! Definitely get one of these!! Price - $4.49
  
• McCormick Gourmet Thyme - Hmm... I don't typically use Thyme all that much... but I will say that this SMELLS really nice and would work great on a holiday ham! I love McCormick spices though, and basically swear by them. Price: $4.79
• Fruit Vines Bites - I think I received the strawberry ones of these and OH MAN they are awesome. I say I think because even though I got a pretty large bag, they were gone basically immediately. :) So good. Price: $1.28-$1.79

SO that is my Frosty VoxBox!!! Anyone out there get one of these and love it!?! I love Influenster, I wish I got more Voxboxes, but I guess I need to be a little bit quicker with my posts and review more stuff!! If you're interested in a referral I think I have a bunch left so comment with your email if you want one and actual intend on being active. No offense, but I don't want to waste my referrals if you're not since they count towards your score!!! :D If you have any questions, feel free to ask! 

Later!

Influenster UniVoxBox Unboxing & Review!

After being signed up for like almost a year now, I FINALLY received m first VoxBox from Influenster!!! I think for my first one, this one is pretty good, even though the UniVoxBox is targeted more towards college students, and even though I am one, I'm definitely not a traditional one.

For those of you who don't know what Influenster is, it's an online community where you can rate and review products you love and hate. You can also check out other people's reviews to see if a product is worth buying or not. I don't think you can simply sign up to Influenster, you have to be invited! When you review products, you earn a score, and of course, the higher the score the better! My score is pretty high, so I think it's crazy that this is my first box. Once they find a program that matches what you like, they will send you a VoxBox, which is a free box of random stuff! YAY!

On to the goodies. Don't keep reading if you don't want a spoiler!
