#JingleVoxBox

I received my Jingle Voxbox today and am looking forward to trying out the products that I received to try. I received a coupon for Ore-Ida Tots, a container of Cetaphil, KISS lashes and glue, NYC City Proof eye liner, a Frozen Ittybitty of Olaf and many other products. I look forward to trying them and reviewing them for all to know what I experienced in hopes of helping others with making decisions on the products.

Ore-Ida Tots

They are crispy and delicious! They are great by themselves and even better when added to a casserole, or even as a base for a type of nachos only using tots instead of chips. I have had them all different kinds of ways and they are great for snacking, for a side dish or part of a main dish. Thanks to Influenster and Ore-Ida, I was able to get a free bag of tots to try out some different recipes with. It was great to try even more types of recipes than what I had previously tried. I highly recommend everyone try them!

Ore-Ida Totchos

I received this product complimentary from Influenster and used the product to create delicious Loaded Totchos! Here is the recipe I used:
Ingredients

1	package (32 ounce) Ore-Ida Tater Tots
1	(16 ounce) sour cream Cilantro
3	tablespoons chopped green onions, divided
1	cup shredded cheddar cheese
¼	cup cooked bacon, crumbled 1 can chopped black olives **I also added jalapenos Directions: 1. Prepare tater tots according to package. 2. Once tots are done cooking, removed from oven (but keep oven on) and top with cheese. Pop back in the oven until cheese is melted. Removed from oven and top with sour cream, pico de gallo, olives and cilantro. ***Can also turn into more of a nacho style by adding beef

Cetaphil - a #JingleVoxbox review

This stuff is great and the one of the best things about it, besides how great it works is that it doesn't cost an arm 

and a leg; which is key when trying to save money!  Seriously though, it is great that there are no perfumes or 

anything that can irritate your skin....It is just a simple, no-nonsense moisturizer--for use on your face and body.

Perfect for these dry winters.

I started using it from a recommendation on Influenster with the JingleVoxBox. It was great to try and well worth 

me looking into buying it in the future.

Crest Pro-Health Advanced

I recently was able to receive a sample of Crest Pro-Health Advanced to test out for review. It was great and I know there are many questions people generally have on these products I get to try out such as:
Has it changed how your mouth feels every day? - The answer is yes, my mouth feels amazing after using this and keeps it fresh and clean feeling, where other mouthwashes may seem like they quit working after a time.

Is there really no alcohol burn? - No burn that I experienced, it was a great feeling with no burn and it was very smooth and fresh!

Do you kind of like going to the dentist now? - Eh, do we ever like going to the dentist, really? It is nice because it helps my mouth stay clean and healthy but truthfully I prefer not going to the dentist.

Overall, I recommend trying this for yourselves even if it means buying a travel sized bottle to try out before buying a large bottle. It is great and something I will keep using!

Eternity Now

I was able to try the fragrance Eternity Now by Calvin Klein thanks to Influenster. I was happy with how the light floral scent was not very strong. It lasted all day long for me and was not overwhelming which is just what I like when it comes to fragrances. I normally do not wear fragrances but may consider it now as the the Eternity Now fragrance is light and airy. The men's cologne Eternity Now was also a treat to my nose. I had my husband try it and he seemed to approve of it for special occasions. I enjoyed the scent on him which is more so important, just like he seemed to like the perfume when I wore it. Influenster is one place that makes me happy as it enables me to try different things that I may not have tried had I not received the free samples thanks to the brands that teamed up with Influenster.

Sally Hansen Airbrush Perfect Legs

I was able to try the new Airbrush perfect legs from Sally Hansen complimentary to review it thanks to the BellaVoxBox from Influenster.

 I received the medium coloring which seemed to be a little dark for me I thought. However when I went to use it, using just the small amount that was recommended it actually worked well to look like a natural tan. It definitely seemed to make my legs appear smoother and more evenly toned. I figured it would be blotchy or look really fake or orange but it actually appeared as natural as tanning outside in the sun. I highly recommend it, just make sure to let it dry before putting clothes on or chancing rubbing your legs against anything as I have heard it can stain things when still wet on your skin. This is perfect for a night out with the girls or even special events!
If interested you can find them in the nail care aisle with other Sally Hansen products!!!

#FreshisFierce

I was able to try Carefree liners thanks to @Influenster and it was a great way to test out another brand of products that we, women need during our time of the month. Overall, they were comfortable to wear before getting my period, as a just in case precaution and also during my period as a backup to my tampons. When you first think of pads or liners, you think of feeling like wearing a diaper and truthfully that is how I always have thought of pads and liners, but trying these out really you do not even know you are wearing a liner when choosing Carefree, and they definitely keep you feeling fresh and #FreshisFierce!  I recommend these to everyone looking for a comfortable liner during those times when you need them!
I received these products complimentary from Influenster for testing purposes.

Not Your Mother's De Ja Vu Do Style extender

I received this product as promotion from Influenster to try. I have normaly difficult hair that does not like to hold any style. Seeing this in my Bellvox box made me laugh thinking my hair is not going to work with this product. So I went into trying it with that thought in my head, only I was greatly surprised after trying it.
        I had never heard of this brand before and I am greatly surprised at how well it works with my difficult hair. I followed the directions to start with, using it on my towel dried damp hair. This worked well for me, but I found having just slightly damp hair that has been blow dried a bit worked even better with difficult to style hair. Make sure to use the hair dryer after applying and combing through your hair as it helps lock the product into your hair.
   From now on I know what brand of hair product works well for troublesome hair  and that is Not Your Mother's, I highly recommend using it to lock in your style until you next wash your hair. Plus it smells great!

#Spring4Wine with Club W

I like trying new wines and thats why I am going to #Spring4wine with Club W thanks to Influenster and their bellavoxbox. Along with great products to try they also sent this great opportunity with Club W to receive a first bottle free thanks to Influenster. This is going to improve my wine drinking options and hopefully will help with good recommendations.

#bellavoxbox

I started checking out the website called Influenster based on reviews I had seen about samples on a pinterest board. I got my first voxbox and the amazing samples I was able to try has been great. In fact I think I will be continuing to use these products in the future. The Ecotools mattifying finish brush was great and keeps my skin looking great when applying my makeup. The Rimmel Lasting Finish Lipstick was a great color and lasted all of my times out on the town. The only downside to the box was that I did not receive my Dove chocolates with my box...which was very disappointing but I still wanted to try them so I ended up buying a bag for myself. I look forward to receiving and reviewing many more of these #voxboxes in the future!

Girls Nights

Girls nights and days are important to friendships and are where we girls can let loose and sometimes be our strangest. As I know it, these are days and nights that can make or break friendships. For me they just strengthen the ties of friendship that connect me with my besties. We are the type who like the simple joy of relaxing with a glass of wine and just talking about life.
In the past though, we did have our crazy days of downing Amp energy drinks and taking random road trips to check out some very interesting parks. Of course these drives consisted of listening to crazy 90's music, particularly that of Aqua with the Barbie Girl song.
I still remember one of the parks we stopped at had a beautiful set up with flowers and a bridge over a river. We spent a lot of time there chilling on the swings and walking by the river. Of course the crazy thing that happened is that we were followed by swarms of geese who wanted the Cheez-its that we were eating. After walking to get away from them only to find more that had surrounded us, we ended up tossing as much of the crackers in all directions to allow us to get to our car, since the geese were not afraid of us.
This is just one of many stories I have from times with my BFF, as we have known each other since elementary school and are still best friends to this day, and she will be standing by my side as my MOH when I marry the love of the my life.
