Revive Voxbox

I was lucky enough to receive the Revive Voxbox this past week! So exciting!!

Included in this complimentary box were:

- Snackwell's cookie - I loved being able to dunk this in my morning coffee. It was perfectly thin enough and tasted very good. The vanilla left a slight flavor in my coffee as well so that was an awesome plus. I haven't seen these thin cookies anywhere, gotta check it out next time I go to the supermarket.

- Shea Moisture shampoo and conditioner: absolutely loved this!! My hair felt so smooth and manageable afterwards and the humidity wasn't much of an issue. I also loved the smell, felt like I was on a nice tropical vacation.

- 100% compostable coffee pods: I got 3 samples. One was a kauai coffee pod that I loved. It was very smooth, tasted amazing and has definitely become a new favorite. The next one was Chock Full O Nuts, it was okay, I was already aware of this brand because my husband occasionally purchases it but it's not my favorite. It's a little too bitter for me and leaves a weird aftertaste once I'm done. Last but not least was the Hills Bros, I didn't really see anything special about these, I mean, it's good but nothing to make me run out and say it's my absolute favorite. It's smooth and tastes great, but there's nothing grand about it.

I also received a shaker bottled and 3 protein shakes from the vitamin shoppe. I'm not typically a protein shake person so I wasn't a huge fan of the flavors. I'm planning on mixing my last sample with some fresh fruit to see if my opinions change, but as of right now, not a fan.

All of these products where sent to me complimentary from Influenster in exchange of my honest review.  You too can be part of influenster! Ask me and I'll send you a referral link. :)

Easy @ home basal thermometer

 This is my first time using a basal thermometer so I'm not entirely sure how the whole charting thing works. I did find that it took a little longer than I expected to get my temperature read. I have a 3 yr old and his patience is not the best first thing in the morning. Again, since this is my first time using this, I don't know if it's comparable to other thermometers out there. It did give me an accurate temperature though and it beeped once it was done. 

I like that it had a big display and that the light is bright enough to be read in the dark but not super bright that it would wake up my husband if I decided to take it while he slept. The beeping noise isn't super loud either, so I would feel comfortable using it while everyone slept. 

The thermometer came in a little case with the chart and instructions. I think it's a bit bulky for travelling, but it's a good place to keep it in the house so it's all in together. I also like that the thermometer saves the temperatures for me so that I can go back and double check in case I make a mistake while charting. So far it's been working great! No issues on my end. 

I did receive this item complimentary for testing in exchange of my honest, unbiased review.

NYB Anti-cellulite Massage Oil

<a href="http://www.tomoson.com/?code=TOP4ef690d62bf37fd90ee31a730e287e62" rel="nofollow"><img style="display: none" src="http://www.tomoson.com/images/front/pixel.png" /></a>

                                               New York Biology Anti-Cellulite Massage Oil
                                                           NYB Anti-Cellulite Massage Oil

I don't typically use oil since I have oily skin and hate feeling any residue on my skin, but this wasn't that bad. It smelled pretty nice and since it's made from natural ingredients I feel a whole lot better about giving this a try. I ended up getting some all over the floor because it's a little more liquidy than I expected, so when you press down on the pump be careful so it doesn't get everywhere. 

After I rubbed it on my skin for the first time it did feel oily, but after reading into a bit more and realizing that I was supposed to use it on damp skin I decided to try again. It was a lot better and it absorbed a little more. I did feel a little tingle after a few minutes of applying the oil but it made me more confident that it was working. 

I love that it's paraben, cruelty and sulfate free and that it only includes natural oils.

Jergen's Wet Skin Moisturizer

                 

                          Jergens Wet Skin Moisturizer

                * I received this product complimentary from crowdtap in exchange of an honest review. 

     I loved how simple and easy this has made my daily routine. I keep the lotion in the shower so as soon as I'm done I can easily apply it. I thought it was a little weird applying lotion to wet skin at first. I mean, years after years of putting it on after drying off and then all of the sudden putting it on wet skin is a little odd. I applied it for the first time, dried off and was pretty surprised at the results. My skin felt silky smooth and had a very nice glow to it. 

The only negative thing that I have to say is that the coconut scent can be a little overpowering if you plan on putting perfume or something else afterwards. I've been using it at night and using regular lotion in the morning, so the scent hasn't been a huge issue for me.

Super Markers Finelener 100 Colors

                       Super Markers Fineliner 100 Colors

                                                                      Buy Here

 

                Since the new year, I've started using adult coloring books as a way to relax and keep         myself busy without being in front of the TV or computer. I've only been using colored pencils up until recently, but found it hard to reach those small little circles or to make it look vibrant enough without tiring myself by pressing down on the colored pencils. 

  

           These markers have really helped me out in that department. I am able to get brighter, neater coloring done by mixing these with colored pencils. I'm also able to reach those small drawings without coloring over and without messing up the drawing. These markers are double sided. One side is thicker,which makes it easier to fill in larger areas and the other side is a finer tip. I am able to use both sides and get gorgeous colors without much effort. There are 100 colors in this pack so I can truly use my imagination and make my relaxing moments a bit more fun.

                         Icosa Living - Eco-Smart Glass Straw Set

                                                                    Buy Here

                 I had no idea these straws even existed! I think they look so fancy and it makes my drink           taste so smooth, I'm in love. 

                                        

                               

       The set comes in a little black box with 6 100% glass straws and a cleaning brush. I think these would be great house warming gifts or part of a holiday gift. My husband didn't know I had these, so when he saw me drinking the lemonade he immediately wanted to try it out himself. He loved it, of course, my husband always loves these new ideas and then showing it off to our friends. 

I think it's a great addition to parties or any event that you host in your own home. Icosa Living states that these are non-toxic and BPA free and since they're eco-friendly, I feel I whole lot better about buying these straws instead of the plastic, disposable ones. 

                          

 Cheers!!

BUS Organizer Box

 

                                  BUS ORGANIZER BOX

                                                                   Buy it Here!

 

Super cute and sturdy organizer for a work desk or even a child's desk. This was stronger than I thought and very simple to put together. 

Even though the instructions came in a different language, the pieces are labeled appropriately and the pictures are self explanatory. It took me maybe 5 mins to put it together. I was a little skeptical about how it would stay together but it does include rubber bands that you attach to the connecting pieces so it stays together very nicely.  

My son loves anything to with cars, so when he saw this bus on his table he was ecstatic!! My husband, a teacher, has already said he would love on for his work table. Very cute gift!! Maybe even a stocking stuffer.
