Influenster Glam VoxBox

So I've only been a member of Influenster (www.influenster.com) since December 2015. I have received my first VoxBox already! It's full of complimentary products for me to test out and review. I'm so excited! I received Gillettes Venus Swirl razor, Gillettes Venus shaving cream, Cutex nail polish wipes, Not Your Mother's dry shampoo, Qtips cotton swabs, and Shea Moisture facial scrub, mask, and moisturizer. Over the next couple of weeks i will be trying the products and posting my reviews and opinions on them.
This blog is actually my first blog so I hope all goes well and I can stay in the loop for more VoxBoxes in the future!
If you have questions or comments please leave them below. And since I'm a first time blogger, suggestions on what I can do better is greatly appreciated!

 
Ok so ive had a chance to use the SheaMoisture facial care samples. I am totally in love. The facial scrub was light with little scrubbies that didnt irritate my skin. It felt really good. When I rinsed it off my skin felt so silky and smooth. I could almost feel weight lifted off my skin with the dirt gone out of my pores! The mask was very easy to use. Simply rub it on and let it sit 5 or 10 minutes. It didnt dry down and get stiff. Again when i rinsed this off i felt hydrated and fresh. The moisturizer was my favorite i think simply because i may have another much needed use for it. First of all it was very creamy and soaked into my skin quickly. My skin felt very hydrated with absolutely no greasy feeling. I have oily skin by the way. My skin felt soft. The best part...my fine lines and pores seemed to disappear!! My skin had a natural matte finish. Its been a couple hours now and the oils in my skin still have not peeked through! I think this moisturizer would be a perfect primer for makeup! Like a 2 in 1..moisturize and prime all in one. So my overall review is this skincare line rocks! I cant wait to purchase the full size. And i highly recommend this to everyone! 

I have also used the Qtips. Everyone knows the awesome uses of Qtips so I wont go into great detail on a review. I received the travel pack. It contained 30 tips and was in a plastic carrier that snapped shut. It fit in the palm of my hand. Its perfect for putting in your purse or glovebox in the car. You never know when you might need 1 or 2 so I recommend picking up the travel pack or several and stash them in different places!

So next up I tried the Cutex Advanced Revival Nail Polish Remover Pads. These little things are wonderful. The claims say removes polish from 10 nails. I removed polish from 10 fingers and 7 toes before the pad dried up. Then I simply added a dash more remover to the pad and finished the other 3 toes. It didnt leave any messy residue on my fingers but I was wearing a nude color. As quickly and easily as it removed the polish I would bet that it would not leave behind much if any residual polish. I would definetly purchase these for quick fixes or travel. Also if you would like to see them in action check out my Instagram @nicolesmall75
So i have finally got to try out my Gillette Venus Swirl razor and Venus shave gel. i absolutely love this razor!! It has a little ball below the razor head the allows it flex around your curves and bumpy knees ;) I got such a close shave it left my skin extremely smooth. The shave gel is equally as wonderful! It smells great and is so silky smooth going on. It allows the razor to glide effortlessly. I am so glad I finally got to try this razor out and I highly recommend this and the shave gel to anyone who wants to #ChooseToSmooth 

Last but not least is the Not Your Mother's Clean Freak Dry Shampoo. I had never really used dry shampoos until around last Christmas. I received a little travel pack of goodies from santa and one of the items was dry shampoo. It was not the Not Your Mother's brand but I dont remember what the name was. Whatever it was I didnt like it at all so I never tried dry shampoo again. I received this sample from Influenster and thought I would give it try. I love the other products by this brand so maybe this is just as good. I was pleasantly surprised! I love this stuff! Im glad I got unscented so it doesn't clash with my perfumes. Personally I use this product to acheive volume on the crown of my head more than cleaning up my do for another day. So easy to use and doesnt turn into a sticky mess if i sweat later in the day. I highly recommend you try this product and brand over all the others!
