Disclaimer: I received these products complimentary for testing purposes from Influenster.
I'm really excited to finally be reviewing my first (and hopefully not last) box from Influenster. I signed up for Influenster a little over a month ago and I was overjoyed when I received an email that I had been picked to review their next box. This review is a little different than what I'm used to because its not a box full of beauty products. What I love most about it, is that it came with a box full of extremely practical and useful things every girl needs :)
 |
| Here is an overview of what I received in my box. |
 |
| This is easily my favorite product in the box. I received the Vanilla Bean flavor and I love it. It definitely hydrates your lips and since using it, my lips feel softer and smoother. I received two coupons in my box for this product so I can't wait to use them and try out the other flavors :) |
 |
| This is one of those "I'll use this product if I receive it as a sample, but I can't ever afford to buy it" kind of beauty products. The product retails at $60 for just 1.0 fl oz so its definitely out of my budget. I haven't yet tried it out because I don't want to accidentally fall in love with something I shouldn't buy, but according to Elizabeth Arden, this serum reinforces skin's essential moisture barrier, even skin tone and texture, and reduces the appearance of early signs of wrinkles. Is it bad that I secretly hope it does none of this so I'm never tempted to spend a ridiculous amount of money...? |

| I LOVE gummies. I noticed that some people received a full bottle of these and I'm sort of glad I didn't because I have to always remind myself that these are just candy gummies that I can eat hundreds of (not that I would ever think of eating hundreds of candies in one sitting ;)). This product is a B-12 vitamin supplement that naturally boosts energy. I'm not too much of a fan of these dieting things that supposedly boost your metabolism. I'm more of a eat healthy and work out kind of girl and try to stray away from weight loss marketing. However, I do like that this product makes a special point to state that it should be used with with regular exercise and a healthy diet. |

| At first I saw this and thought, "oh great another random over-the-counter medication to take up room in my bathroom." Then, I had flashbacks to all of the random times I've burned myself with a hair straightener or curling iron and realized how useful this is! I never really know what to do when I get a burn so I'm excited to try this out next time I do get a burn. (Not that I'm wanting myself to get burned...) This would have really been useful the time I burned myself on a crockpot and received a HUGE blistered burn on my wrist. |
 |
| One of my only complaints about being a girl is how expensive tampons are so I'm ecstatic to have received an entire box for free. I've never tried out this brand, but I'm so glad I have them on hand now and won't have to make an emergency run to the store! Plus I love that they're made specifically with the idea of sports in mind, which makes me think they're the Superman of tampons. |

I love sweet tea. Honestly, I would kill for a McDonald's $1 large sweet tea right now, but (1) I have no money and (2) I'm old enough to restrain myself from purchasing something so bad for me. Thus, I'm excited to see a sweet tea that was made with no preservatives by Pure Leaf. I'm not too much of a fan of bottled iced tea because I prefer the fresh brewed type, but this one surprisingly didn't seem as if it had come straight out of a bottle. In fact, I'm currently wishing I hadn't drank it yesterday...

Overall, I really enjoyed this Influenster box and I hope to receive more in the future. I loved that I hadn't tried a single product in the box before so it was all a new experience. Thanks Influenster for giving me such practical items!
Hope everyone is having a great short work week and wonderful beginning to my favorite month of the year: September!
XOXO,
Jen
