From Food to Makeup — it’s all in Influenster’s Refresh VoxBox (Unboxing & Review)

It has been a long time since I received my last VoxBox from Influenster — see what I got in my J’Adore box — so I did a little happy dance when I received an email saying I was selected to get the newest #RefreshVoxBox.

If you don’t know what all the fuss is about VoxBox’s from Influenster….read my previous post to get all the details. It’s basically a fun program where you get sent products for free to try out and talk about — and you don’t have to have a blog or Youtube channel! If you have some form of social media (Twitter, Facebook, Instagram), then you can join this program and get sent free stuff!

If you want to join this (FUN!) program….leave your email address below and I’ll send you a personal invite ASAP! 😉

So do you want to see what I got in my box?? This post will be an unboxing/mini review on all the products I have tried so far. (Because who doesn’t love an unboxing post, right?!)

What’s in My Refresh VoxBox (plus reviews!)

First off, let me just say that I was SO sad not to receive the beautiful, decorative box that VoxBox’s are typically shipped in. For some reason my things were just in a normal brown box. This made me sad, and I hope they bring back the fun packaging back in future VoxBoxes!

I received two different bags — one was White Bean with Sea Salt and the other was Nacho Cheese. We ate these up in short order. 🙂 Very yummy — especially considering that they’re made with beans. my husband doesn’t like beans, but was a big fan of these. I liked that they were ‘softer’, almost melt-in-your-mouth kind of a chip. Much easier to chew than the typical tortilla chips. Safer for a baby/toddler to chew and not run the risk of getting a sharp piece stuck in their throat. Very yummy, and something we will repurchase!

 

I was really, really sad about this….but the foundation was too dark for me! I didn’t even have to try it on my skin to see that I wasn’t near tan enough to use (Oh, the woos of foundation shopping!) I will say, for me, personally I would rather just remove the hairs (I use this facial hair removal spring) and not have to try to find a foundation that will ‘lay’ the hairs down for me. But that’s just my two cents on it. 😉

Who doesn’t love creams?! Especially with this colder season still sticking around, many people need help adding extra moisture to their skin. My hands – cuticles, specifically – have been really try and rough lately, so I was happy to have this handy little jar sitting on my vanity to use before bed. It works really well, in my opinion. Get’s the job done, and very moisturizing. The only thing is that it smells like baby lotion. Not that that’s a bad thing….just an interesting detail I noticed. And something I don’t particularly want to smell like when I get in bed to snuggle with my husband. 😛

I actually didn’t receive the shake in my box, just a $1 off coupon for it (Maybe an oversight?). I’m not too big on shakes, personally (I like to chew my food, lol) but I was intrigued to see they had a line for kids. I think I’ll send my coupon to my sister to get her 2 year old daughter one of the Healthy Kids Organic Nuritional Shake.

This is the second mask I’ve tried from this brand (read my thoughts on the previous one) and I was thrilled to see that this was a peel off mask. I’ve always wanted to try one of these. I received a full-size product and was surprised, and pleased, to see that even after I applied the mask all over my face, there was still enough for 2 or 3 more masks. Definitely get your money’s worth with this mask! It’s always hard to tell if a mask works, but it felt very refreshing going on. The smell was a bit strong. Okay, very strong, but it wasn’t as bad as the first mask I tried. If your sensitive to smells…I would be careful around this line of masks!

Who doesn’t love bars?? (Well, besides my husband…but he can remain the odd one out! :-P) SkinnyGirl is known for creating yummy treats that seem like indulgences….to be healthy and beneficial for you. I got the Chocolate Peanut Butter with Sea Salt and it was SO YUMMY!!! I love peanut butter, and I love chocolate….mix them together and I’ve got the best of both worlds. I highly recommend you give these bars a try. I know they’re at Target that you can buy in bundles of 4 or 5, which typically comes to a little over $1 each. Decent price for healthy!

 

I’ve bought these on my own before, so I instantly threw one of these paks into my purse, knowing I would use them up in no time. These are great if you don’t want to be chewing gum, but would like just a little ‘burst’ of a breath refresher without spritzing perfume in your mouth (LOL, just a joke, don’t try it! ;-P). These would be very handy if you had a long day job and after lunch just wanted to refresh yourself before going back to work. Very handy — and so small, they fit anywhere!

These little flossers are so cute and something I definitely intend to send to my sister so she can use them for her little 2 year old. It’s a scrubbing floss that is intended for young children. It removes foot and plaque and is designed to fit for kids teeth and also just the right size so they can hold it and start learning dental hygiene at an early age. So adorable!

 

I like these to put in my purse (yes, I have a rather large purse, lol!) to use when I am out and about and maybe notice something stuck between my teeth after eating lunch. That is always so annoying when it’s right there between your teeth and nothing you can easily remove on your own. These come in really handy! And for only $4 you get over 100 flossers, so well worth the money, in my opinion.

And that was everything I received in my Refresh VoxBox. I love getting to try things out, because it’s been the means of me finding products I continue to love and repurchase to this day. Like the Bath & Body Works Forever Red body spray.

I LOVE that scent and can NEVER get enough of it! And I originally received it one of my first Influesnter VoxBoxes. 🙂
