So I'm extremely late in posting this, but overall I've been a little MIA. I was a little surprised to see that I was getting this voxbox because I got the "You're In" email on Feb. 10th, and I guess I thought they had already picked everyone for this box. But either way, it was a happy surprise and it arrived at my house around Feb. 20th. (Just a few days after I started my new job, which is why I've been MIA :P). And I have a few other posts about what Influenster is and what voxboxes are and all that jazz so if you're not familiar, explore some of my old posts. And if you'd like to join, I have a couple more invites left, so just send me an email (in my Contact Me section) and I'll send you an invite. (P.S I don't get paid for inviting people, just in case you were wondering :)) So on with the goodies!

| Boots Botanics Clay Mask 3.5oz |
I've gone through one jar of the regular GlamGlow mask, and I kinda liked it, I picked up the GlamGlow cleansing mask, and didn't notice anything different, so I wasn't expecting much. Everyone seems to love GlamGlow and I'm always hearing glowing reviews (get it? ;)) but it didn't really do anything for me. But, that's neither here nor there, because this is about my voxbox! :) So, the Boots Botanics clay mask...bottom line, I really like it, and I can't wait to use it again. I found that it worked a ton better than the GlamGlow masks, and it's a lot cheaper. It left my skin soft and smooth and just looked like it actually pulled out junk from my skin. It didn't feel harsh either. The GlamGlow masks would sometimes make my eyes water, but I had no issues with this little guy...except for one... It kind of separated in the bottle, so a thick consistency came out, and then a runny mess followed it. But I just put the cap back on, shook the bottle and applied. I didn't see a difference between the side that was applied with the "regular" thick consistency and my shaken version. :)

| Frizz Ease 3-Day Straight 1oz |
The Frizz Ease 3-Day Straight Flat Iron Spray is the one item I still haven't tried yet for a few reasons. 1. I like my hair wavy/curly/ anything but straight because my hair is never one consistent texture. One side will be straight and the other side will be wavy, so I to avoid that, I'll just curl all of it or use sea salt spray or something. 2. the idea of using something that will keep my hair straight for 3 days makes me a little uneasy and 3. you have to apply it when your hair is wet, then blow dry, then flat iron. and I usually don't blowdry my hair...like ever, so I always forget. Ideally, this would be really convenient if I were to straighten my hair everyday this would be awesome. Maybe after I get a hair cut, I'll give it shot, but for now I just suspiciously look at it. lol

| Red Rose Simply Indulgent Teas - I got 4 packs |
And last but not least, Red Rose Simply Indulgent Teas. I like tea, but I don't drink it often unless it's iced tea. If it's iced tea, I don't add sugar/sweetener, but if its hot tea, I prefer that it's sweet or has some kind of sweet/strong flavor, like the Celestial seasonal Sugar Cookie tea. The Creme Caramel has a yummy flavor. I tried it with adding milk but I think I like it better without. I also got the Lemon Chiffon flavor, which I think I'll use next. But from the Creme Caramel, they taste really good and rich.

| KISS Looks So Natural Lashes |
I was pretty excited about the KISS Looks So Natural Lashes. Again, another item I don't usually use on a daily basis but from the pairs that I do have (from different brands), they have the blunt, flat, tips. And these lashes specifically market that they look like natural lashes and are tapered at the tips.
 |
| HERSHEY'S KISSES 18.5 oz bag |
I was a little surprised to see a "Family Size" bag of chocolate in the mail, but hey, you'll hear no complaints from me! :) So needless to say, HERSHEY'S KISSES are yummy, and they're not a stranger to me or my household. Everything else, however, was. At first glance, I wasn't too thrilled about the clay mask or the tea, or the flat iron spray.
Overall I enjoyed my voxbox and trying out all the goodies. I can't wait to see what other voxboxes come out! :)
I received these products complimentary from Influenster for testing purposes.
