Hello! Wow I've really been slacking on this tumblr thing. I've been really busy with work and trying to balance my personal life, so it's been really exhausting. So I have here my review of everything I recieved in my FrostyVoxBox from Influenster that I recieved back in December (yup I'm late). Below is everything I received:
Celestial Seasonings Candy Cane Decaf Green Tea - To be honest, I am not a tea drinker unless it's iced. However, I did decide to give this tea a try. I was surprised to see two tea bags in the pouch, so I gave the other tea bag to my dad, how absolutely loves to drink tea (I'm saying tea a lot!). Even though I was not a fan of the taste; which had a very strong peppermint flavor, my dad seemed to really enjoy it. I would go with my dad's opinion since he is the expert in tea.
No7 Protect & Perfect ADVANCED Serum - As an estetician, I am always looking for great skincare products. This product claims to "reduce the appearance of fine lines for younger skin in just two weeks". And with any skincare product, it's hard to see a difference in your skin if you only use a product once; it needs to be used consistently for you to see results. While I've only used the serum once, I did notice that my skin felt so much smoother and more alive.
McCormick Gourmet Thyme - I was laughing when i saw this in the VoxBox, as I really don't cook! Sad I know. So I gave this to my mom and she made pasta fagioli with it. As with all my mom's cooking, this soup came out tasting delicious. I'm not sure if it was all because of the thyme.
EcoTools Hair Brush - I love when round brushes have a mixture of boar brissles and plastic brissles; I feel like it helps with my curly hair for when I'm tryingto blow dry it straight. Using this brush was so simple, and it wasn't super heavy in my hand. I really didn't see a difference from my other round brush as far as how fast my hair dries and how it looked, but it is a cheaper alternative that does give good results.
Fruit Vines Bites - WOW JUST WOW!!! These things were so addicting. I love any candy that is cherry flavored, so I knew these would be up my alley. I know I'll be rephrasing these, but not too often as these are very sugary.
Rimmel Scandaleyes Waterproof Kohl Kajal Eyeliner - I was very surprised with the stay power and pigmentation of this eyeliner. They weren't lying when they said it's waterproof! It glides on the eyes so easily, and the color is so dark.
Rimmel Gentle Eye Makeup Remover - I was in need of a new makeup remover as I ran out of my other one, so I was happy to see this in my box. It was able to take off my regular makeup pretty easily, but I did need to use extra cotton squares. It was a challenge to get the waterproof eyeliner off, though!
NYC Expert Last Lip Color in Sugar Plum - With prior experience to NYC lipstick, I didnot have high hopes for this one. However, I was pleasantly surprised with the pigentation and how beautiful the color looked on my lips. Sugar Plum comes off as a natural pink color with some shimmer. It also lasted for a pretty long time without fading.
