GeoDeo Deodorant from Naturals VoxBox 2012

Well I got my Naturals VoxBox from Influenster yesterday.
The first thing I've tried so far is this GeoDeo deodorant in island scent. My first impression was it smelled good and then when I tried it on it was sort of sticky feeling, which is something that I really don't like in a deodorant but I wore it all day at work. It actually worked better than my Secret deodorant, I wasn't gross from sweating at work. Now I'm on day 2 and so far so good. I'll keep updating as a few more days go by.
I almost forgot you can purchase this from drugstore for around $5.99
I received this product from Influenster to test and review.

Unreal Candy report for Bzzagent


Well I tried all of them except the peanut butter cups so far.
The first one in Red is like a Milky Way bar.
The second in Purple is like a Snickers bar.
The third in Blue are like regular M & M's
The fourth in Green are like peanut M & M's.
The fifth in Yellow are like Reese's Peanut Butter cups.

1) This one was actually really good, the caramel tasted more natural. The chocolate isn't a milk chocolate tasting, it taste more like dark chocolate. All and all I would buy this candy bar again.
2) This one is my favorite so far and has the same points for me as the first one except it has peanuts and is a like snickers.
3 & 4) These ones are really good but after a whole bunch of them I can kind of taste the beets in the candy coating and all the other natural ingredients used for the colored shells. Other than that they were really good, I enjoyed the different colors.
5) Well I just tried the peanut butter cups, I like them but I think I'll stick with Reese's on this one.. sorry unreal!

My overall thought of this candy is that I really enjoyed them a lot, I would buy them again. This was a really fun and cool thing to try for my first BzzCampaign from Bzzagent.

Milky Way french vanilla and caramel

Honestly I don't really taste a difference from the regular Milky Way. I didn't taste the French vanilla at all. The cool part is that the nougat is white instead. I still enjoy the candy bar but no French vanilla flavor.
I purchased this at Walgreens.

Websites I love! Part 1

OK I'm doing this in alphabetical order because I don't want to put any site before another because I do love them all. I will put all the links at the bottom of the page if you would like to join =)

 Bzzagent (FREE!)


This company is a word of mouth company. You try products and review them basically. The reviews have to be a little more in depth than just a few sentences. Plus you have to do surveys to qualify for a product to test. This site is really cool so far I am testing the
Unreal Candy =)


GreenMomsMeet (FREE!)
This is a site for Moms and you have to have a little mom group to try out products with but that's easy just get your family and friends that are mom's that have kids and get them together for a fun sample time.
Right not I am testing with my group
Tree Top Reduced Sugar Juices



Influenster (FREE!)
This is a really cool site. You make a profile and earn badges through little surveys. Then when it's time for a voxbox (their box of all kinds of different goodies 4-6 products) or a product to test you get a pre-qualification email. If you qualify then you're notified and you get the VoxBox or the product. =) Right now I hope to qualify for a natural/green/organic box that I got an email about.



Julep (First box is a penny!! Every month after it is $19.95 for $40 of products!)
 
This site is really great and awesome if you love nail polish! They do have some other beauty products but this is mainly a nail polish site. They don't sell this in any store. This monthly subscription service is a penny the first box and depending which maven you are (you take a quiz to determine it) all the mavens get 2 polishes and a product (it changes from time to time, mine was pedi creme) but if you are the "it girl" maven you get 3 polishes and no product. You can also change if you don't like the polish colors for that maven box. Every month you can get a box or not or give it to a friend. Also every month to your box you can add up to 2 polishes for $4.99 each and thats great because each polish is regular $14 each. 



Well this is it for now but I do have more sites I'll be talking about so look for Part 2 to come soon and here are the links for you guys.

Favorite tools and make up for eyes!

Well a lot of my friends ask me what make up I use and honestly I don't spend lots of money on make up unless its something I really want to have or try.

For Eyes:

I own this exact eye shadow palette. It's great because it has so many colors to play with.
e.l.f.
I use this eyeline because I hate sharpeners and I am not a liquid eyeliner fan too much.
Cover Girl Perfect Point Plus Eyeliner in black
Lately for mascara I've really been loving this one
Revlon Grow Luscious Mascara in black
I know I said I am not a big liquid eyeliner fan and I am not but for my eyebrows and it fills them in really nice.
e.l.f. liquid eyeliner in coffee or brown
Last for the eyes the only tool I use
e.l.f. eye shadow brush I think it's only a $1

 Those are my favorite things I use all the time to do my eye make up, maybe soon if I get the chance I'll do some cool make up on my eyes and post pictures so you can see.
Thank you for reading!

Aveeno daily detoxifying scrub

Today is day two of using this Aveeno scrub, I got it in the target summer beauty bag. The scrub smells like flowers but not overwhelming. I use a dime size amount and I scrub my face with warm water. It makes my face feel so fresh and soft. I also I've been noticing that my pores seem to be getting smaller. I give this scrub a 5 out of 5.
Xoxo

Bzzagent


Well I joined Bzzagent last month and I notice it on one of my favorite bloggers youtube videos and its a site where you do campaigns for products and review them. It sounded really cool and I love to review products so it sounded perfect for me. Finally last week I was invited to join a new campaign for Unreal Candy
They look really good and I can't wait to try them!

Julep Maven Box (1st)

Julep Maven Intro Box
Well most people knew I was so excited to get this box because I only paid a penny for it. They do that special so hopefully you subscribe to their box every month for I think $19.98 plus tax. Well I came home from work and opened my box and it stunk like nail polish. I opened the pink bag that all of the items are in and took everything out. When I took the nail polishes out that were wrapped in bubble wrap tightly, the one was cracked and leaked all over but the other one was fine. I was really disappointed because I did want to subscribe every month that I liked the box because they send you a preview email and then you can say yes or no or pick a different style or even send it to a friend. Right now I'm not sure what I'm going to do but hopefully the email I sent them will at least get me a replacement bottle of the nail polish. We will see... I'll keep you updated.
Moving on now...
My box was the "Classic with a twist"
So I received :
-toe separators
-Julep nail polish Rose (its a watermelon color) Really pretty! Love it!
-Julep nail polish Kate (its a white color) Would of been nice to try.... =(
-Pedi Creme ( This smells good and kind of smells like a hint of mint and feels really smooth on my feet and you're suppose to expect noticeable results in 1 to 2 uses)

Well that's the Julep box and I know if you read my previous post on the beauty boxes I still think they are a waste of money if you don't get stuff you don't use or like plus come on this only cost me a penny!
XOXO
If you would like to join then here is the link: Julep the first box is a penny!!!

Clean Start



I was lucky enough to get this kit for free from someone I know. I have never had good looking skin and my face is prone to break outs well I've tried all the drugstore brands, proactiv also and then this. Certain brands worked for a while and some didn't. Proactiv dried out my skin too much. This Clean start really seems to work for me, my favorite thing out of the whole box is the bedtime for breakouts. You put it on when you go to bed, it is a little sticky but when you skin wake up in the morning your feels soft and your breakout is almost gone or completely gone depending on how bad it was.
Well this kit is $35 on http://cleanstart.dermalogica.com or they have individual bottles or mini kits

BBW (Bath & Body Works) Of Course!!

I just went here yesterday...I LOVE this store.So many things to smell yummy! Well anyways before I get carried away they are celebrating in August the Paris scents and right now if you buy something at participating store on August 11 from 1 to 5 pm if you buy 1 full size product from the signature collection you get this coupon for a free item up to $15 which is better than most of their coupons up to $12 only. Also I got another coupon which is the free signature collection item up to $12 when you spend $10 but who cares about the actual coupon, it's previewing a body spray in the shape of the Eiffel Tower! I can't wait to get one of these body sprays!!! (Let me take a picture of the coupons really quick....)

There you go... See isn't that bottle cute? I want one!! Coming August 6th!
 Yay!!
I love this collection it smells so good!

XOXO

Venus & Olay Razor
            Well I have to say usually I don't buy the razor with the extra moisturizing strips or bars on them but I must say I really like this razor my skin feels so smooth and silky and you don't even need shaving cream.
The only down side is that the moisturizing bar above and below feels all gooey after you get it wet.
So I'm not in love with the razor but it does make my skin feel nice and smooth.I would give it a 3.5 out of 5 because of the gooey part.

Olay Moisturizing Body Wash & Lotion
            I really like the body wash, it goes great with the razor and making your skin feel smooth. I have dry skin so I really was looking forward to see if this made my skin feel any better, which it did make it feel less dry but didn't have outstanding benefits. I'd give it a 4 out of 5. If you pair it with the lotion however after you use the body wash in the shower it seems to keep my skin moisturized for a lot longer. Plus the lotion is really thick so you know its not some cheap crappy lotion that is like water. I give it 5 out of 5.

Well of course the bath loofah is nice but I have like 3 already so that doesn't matter.
The coupons are good.
The magazine subscription I just signed up for so I can't too much about that but it will be nice to get something to read in the mail every month.
XOXO

Febreze set and refresh

Well I received this really good smelling sample in the mail today.
The scent is apple spice and delight.
So far I totally recommended this but I well tell you how long it last.
The really cool part is you just put the cartridge in and let it click in place then put it in the room you like.

Beauty Boxes.....worth it or not?


Well I've been noticing in my searching that there are a lot of different beauty box subscriptions you can take part in. Most of them seem to cost $30 and under, but are they really worth it? Do you get something that you actually use? I've notice on most blogs about the beauty boxes people have paid for they only get maybe one item they like...Sounds like a total rip off to me, why do you just go to the store and make your own beauty box every month with full size products? That's my plan! Please stay tuned for my own personal "beauty box of the month" creation.
However this doesn't apply to things like the Vox Box or something like that because those are product testing boxes you get from a site or company for free.
