Influenster Vox Box

I am lucky enough to be a recipient of a SuperMom VoxBox from Influenster.  Here is a little bit more about all the FREE products I got in my box!

 Here are the contents!  I took a picture of the WHOLE box with all the stuff in it, but I have no idea where that picture went.  This one is better,  anyways, since it has the actual sour cream (rather than just the coupon) which I got at Strack and VanTil this morning after church!

 Suave Kids Purely Fun 2-in-1 Shampoo and Conditioner:
 I love using this product on my boys.  It has "clean" ingredients...not a bunch of crazy colors and chemically-engineered scents that many of the other brands are.  This has a nice lather, and it makes my boys' hair soft and manageable (even Sammy's!) the next day.  It works well, too, because my boys have had sweaty and dirty hair all weekend due to soccer, yard work, and beautiful, warm weekend!

 Palmolive Fusion Clean:
I love this dish soap!  It says that it cleans food that has been stuck on for 24 hours.  Well, I can one-up that.  This had no problem cutting through 5-day-old crusty cookie dough (I decided not to use up half of the bottom rack of my dishwasher with the cookie batter bowl).  I also love that this soap smells exactly like a margarita!  LOL!!!!!

 Daisy Squeezable Sour Cream:
Just bought this this morning and used it on quesadillas at lunch.  I totally appreciate the squeeze top!  much better than dirtying a spoon every time you want just a dollop!  This is going to get a LOT of use in my house.  Rarely do I ever need  more than just a dollop or two.  I think I will actually use it even more than I would if it came in a tub, since it is so convenient to just squeeze it out!  I did not see any fat free or reduced fat kind of squeezable Daisy sour cream at my store, so if you prefer that, you may have to go with the tub.

 Pilot Acroball pens:
I ADORE the pink one!  First of all, it has a nice, medium point, and the ink is bright pink!  Perfect for this teacher to use grading papers!  The ball in it makes it write nice and smoothly!  If you like "ball" pens, you will find Acroball to be one of the smoothest!  Plus the grip is perfect for writing (or grading) tons of papers!
The white/green one is a fine point, black ink pen.  If you know anything about me, you know I love THICK points and I don't like black ink.  However, I can't help but love using this pen because it just writes so smoothly!  I an going to keep this pen in my recipe/meal planning binder.

Packers Flossers:
This sample pack came with 3 flossers....one for each of my twins and one for me!  The flavor was fun, and my boys LOVE flossers.  I am not sure if they use them correctly, but it can't hurt, right!!??! flossing incorrectly is better than not flossing at all.  I will continue to buy these because the boys have been asking for them ever since I gave them the sample to try!  James chose the yellow one and sammy chose the blue.  I got the orange!

philosophy

I received a free product for the purpose of my review. Opinions are 100% my own. This was from Smiley360.

Here is a picture of the quick review I put on the philosophy website:

Sir Bananas BananaMilk

I got to try a free carton of Sir Bananas BananaMilk from #MomsMeet in exchange for my honest review with my moms group.  Here is my review:

I found the Sir Bananas milk at Meijer.  I asked Sammy what kind he wanted, and, not surprisingly, he chose the chocolate kind.  James, who hates everything that has to do with milk or fruit, did not want to have anything to do with this!

Sammy really likes it.  He is a big fan of chocolate milk, which I only give to him as a treat, so he thinks that it is really exciting when he gets it.

I am a little biased because I HATE anything banana, so I am truly not a fan of this.  It does taste like bananas, but I wanted to try it myself to let you know what it's like.  There is no covering up of the banana flavor.

As far as texture goes, it is nice and creamy.  Just as thick as 1% milk, I would say.  I feel good giving it to Sammy since it has so many vitamins and minerals!

The carton is really cute, with the adorable monkey on it.

I have some $1.25 off coupons if you would like to try some for yourself at a cheaper price!  Hit me up!  I will add a picture of the carton later, when I can get my camera to work!

Bite Beauty Amuse Bouche Lipstick

I got a VoxBox from Influenster with 3 of these lipsticks in it for free in exchange for my honest review.  Here it is:

From bottom to top, the shades pictured above are Gazpacho, Beetroot, and Pepper.

My favorite thing about these is that they are creamy, and they last a long time.  ANNNNNNND, they are made with natural oils that make them smell and taste good (such as avocado oil, i think).

You can find them at Sephora Beauty for about $26 apiece, I believe.  Try some for yourself!

Swiffer Dusters 360

I got to try a Swiffer Dusters 360 free from BzzAgent in exchange for my honest review.  Here it is:

This thing is really neat!  I think it works great!

When you take it out of the package it looks like a fat caterpillar on a stick!  The stick is about a foot and a half long, but one of the best features about this product is that the wand extends to about 3 feet or so.  Pair that with your extended arm, and you have quite a reach with this!  I have no problem reaching into the corners of my ceilings, even some of the REALLY tall ones!

To get this ready to use, all you have to do is take it out of the packaging,  fluff up one of the duster pads with your hand a bit and slip it onto the handle.  What you get if you buy the product that I was sent (pictured above) is a handle and 3 unscented duster heads.  I am assuming that, since this says "unscented" that they possibly have scented duster head refills.  However, I did not see them when I was at Wal Mart last time.

Another great feature of this is the bendable head.  There is a small white button next to the head that, when pushed, makes the head bend (both forward and backward).  What this helps with is when you want to dust your ceiling fan blades or the top of your fridge, cabinets, or range hood.

This thing is truly like a magnet for dust.  Just like I have seen on some commercials for products such as this, you can shake the head after you dust, you can shake the head and the dust amazingly stays on there!

On the bottom of the wand there is a circle which allows you to hang the duster up on a hook to keep it from getting smashed up in your closet or pantry.

Marc Jacobs Velvet Noir Mascara

I got to try a tube of this mascara for FREE from Influenster.  Here is my review.

This mascara is the BOMB!  Its color is nice and dark on my lashes.   The brush provides a nice curl, and my lashes do not feel crunchy when I wear the mascara!

It's cool to know that I am using a prestigious brand!  I recommend this mascara to anyone who loves a nice-looking lash without the crunch!

Welch's Simply Refreshing Juice

I got to try a bottle of WELCH'S SIMPLY REFRESHING JUICE for free from BzzAgent in exchange for my honest review.  Here it is:

I chose the strawberry raspberry flavor for Sammy (James does NOT like juice).  I could tell right away that Sammy didn't love it.  It kinda just tastes like watered down juice.
I get where Welch's is going, and I appreciate the fact that they made a juice with "honest" ingredients, but it just really doesn't taste that good.  Maybe one of the other flavors is better.

I prefer to give Sammy  100% juice, and this kind is only 15% real juice.
