PREVIEW: Influenster Sunkissed 2013 Voxbox

What a perfect way to celebrate the first day of Summer. I had almost forgot about it, so today, I was pleasantly surprised to find my Influenster Sunkissed VoxBox waiting for me.  This is my 5th or 6th VoxBox I've received and they always have at least 1 or 2 products that I am really excited to try. This box did not disappoint. If you are not familiar with Influenster, I will have a link to a previous blog post listed at the close that will better explain and also explain how you too can join.

Now on to the contents of this Sunkissed VoxBox. As with every VoxBox, it came with a note card explaining each product enclosed along with the full-size retail price.

The first product is the Dr. Scholl's For Her High Heel Insoles. They retail $10.99 and are available where ever Dr. Scholl's products are sold. Every Sunday while in church, I've noticed that heels are reaching for the sky, so if these insoles deliver what they promise, there should be a lot of less sore feet. I will definitely have to give them a try.

Next is Olay Fresh Effect {BB Cream!} Skin Perfecting Tinted Moisturizer with SPF 15.  It retails for $12.99.  Just this morning I reminded myself that I needed to use a moisturizer with SPF. While the shade of the product I received is not close to my skin tone  I can still use it as a primer.  It currently only comes in two shades: fair/light and light/medium; I hope they will eventually release a greater range of colors.

Of course I would be excited about this next product. Also included was this SinfulShine with Gel Tech. It retails $2.99 a bottle and is exclusive to Walgreens.  I've seen the SinfulShine display, but hadn't purchased any yet. So here is my chance to give them a try.  I received a Yours Truly, a soft pink. This line come in 32 shades. Until receiving this SunKissed VoxBox and the included knowledge, I didn't realize that the line was a limited edition.

Lastly, is a product I was just looking at last week. Also included was a pack of the Goody Ouchless Ribbon Elastics. They retail $3.99-$4.99.  I was in Walgreens recently and was looking at these. I'm glad I held off. Now I can try them free. Especially during warmer months I tend to bun my hair more often. And I love the color, they are very business friendly. These will definitely be put to good use.

I am really happy with the contents of the Influenster Sunkissed 2013 Voxbox and can't wait to give these products a try.  Now if you are not familiar with Influenster, click HERE for more details.

Each member is initially given 5 invites to give out to friends and family.  I have 3 more invites available. And the first three requests I receive, I will freely give an invite.  Just send me a request and provide your email address. #SunVoxBox #Ouchless #SinfulShine #DrSchollsStrut @GoodyHair @FreshEffects @SinfulColors_NP

TIME SENSITIVE: Bath & Body Works 3-Wick Candles for $10 each

As I posted in a recent You Tube video, I am a member of Influenster. And in this latest Influenster Beauty Blogger VoxBox was a Bath & Body Works Mini Candle (1.3 oz, reg $3.50) in Cider Lane, along with a coupon that would allow me to purchase up to 5 of their 3-wick candles for $10 each.  So today I ran out and purchased the total 5 3-wick candles. What I didn't say in my original video was that there is also an online code that I may share with my followers so that you too can participate in this excellent savings. The only catch...the coupon expires Sunday, October 28, 2012.  So let's get crackin'!

If you are not familiar with Bath & Body Works Candles, you are really missing out.  There is another mall brand of candle that I used to exclusively purchase, but the Bath & Body Works candles surpasses that other brand. So allow me to quickly share with you the 5 candles I purchased today along with one I had remaining from the most recent 2 for $20 sale.

I believe that Fall and Wnter are my favorite seasons when it comes to the candle selections. The scents are just delicious! Literally, some of the scents will have you thinking your grandmother is in the kitchen. LOL!

Anyway, the first two are:

• Winter Night - "Sweeten up your home! Inspired by bright moonlight and a distant fire on a crisp, winter night, this lively fragrance unites fir tree, warm cypress and clove bud as they blend perfectly with cedar and a touch of incense."
• Marshmellow Fireside - "Celebrate the changing season with a warm blend of marshmallows, smoldering woods and creamy vanilla reminiscent of a cozy evening 'round the bonfire."

The next two are:

• Peach Bellini - "A classic Italian cocktail with a twist mixes bubbly white peach, tart blackcurrant, jasmine and a splash of juicy orange. A festive fragrance for your holiday fete!"
• Black Pepper Bergamot - "Capture fall's fleeting beauty with this fragrance featuring layers of spicy black pepper combined with uplifting bergamot and lavender."

And the last two are:

• Sandalwood Vanilla - "This romantic fusion of exotic sandalwood and luscious caramel with notes of fresh juniper and vanilla is a sweet way to heat things up during a winter chill."
• Snowed In - "Escape the frigid winter wind, wrap up in your coziest blanket and warm up this inspiring blend of fresh juniper, sugared sap and sage for the perfect day in!"

So those are the Bath & Body Works candles I will be burning during the Fall and into the Winter months.

A little about these candles, they are:

• Regular priced at $20 each, but with the promo code, "F126566", you too can purchased up to 5 candles for $10 each. Remember this offer expires on 10/28/12.  If you should miss out on this opportunity, no worries, Bath & Body Works frequently has sales on their candles.
• Highly fragranced candle exclusively developed and tested by the Bath & Body Works team of Home Fragrance experts, including the world's best master perfumers
• Made using the highest concentration of fragrance oils, an exclusive blend of vegetable wax and lead-free wicks for optimal performance
• 3-wick candle burns approximately 30 to 45 hours
• 4" wide x 3 1/2" tall

Should you take advantange of this great opportunity, please be certain to share with me the candle scents you selected. Happy and Safe burning.

Grace, Peace, & Blessings,

PREVIEW: Influenster Summer VoxBox 2012 First Glance...

Earlier this Spring, I signed up to join Influenster. What is Influenster you ask? For a more detailed explanation, click here, Influenster.

So after answering the surveys associated with the different badges, I was selected to receive my first VoxBox, the Summer Beauty VoxBox 2012.  I quickly opened the box and here is what I found:

First, I was greeted by a introduction post card, that educated me on contents of the box and prices of full size products. The Summer Beauty VoxBox 2012 included the following:

• Hawaiian Tropic Silk Hydration™ Lotion Sunscreen SPF 30. Living in Florida, this will definitely come in handy.

• Tampax® and Alway Radiant® Collection. Thanks to Eve, a necessary evil...LOL!

• Quaker Soft Baked Bar in Banana Nut Bread.  Tomorrow's breakfast...

• Sally Hansen Magnetic Nail Color. As a nail polish/beauty blogger, these next two product are definite must tries for me...
• Sally Hansen Nails and Cuticles Hand Creme

• Clear Scalp & Hair Beauty Therapy™. I had been spying this line at my local Walgreens, so I am happy to have the chance to try it.

Have you tried any of these products, and if so what was your opinion? As I try them, I will be sure to share my findings with you.

Grace, Peace, & Blessings.
