Influenster Holiday Voxbox!

So, I signed up for a really cool program called Influenster a few months ago. Basically, it's a website where you post about things you like, things you buy, and things you'd like to try. Clarissa got me to sign up, and to be honest I had forgotten all about it. I got an email a week or so ago saying I had qualified for a Holiday Voxbox, which is probably the coolest part of the program. They send out themed boxes of various items for you to try and review. I signed into my account for the first time in months to say yes, I was interested. Well, I got my little box of awesome today, and it made a great Christmas Eve even better. Here's a rundown of what was inside. The Goody Quikstyle™: Basically, this brush is half brush and half shammy. It has the normal brush bristles, but with little soft nubblies that suck the water out of wet hair. I got the half circle variety. I saw these at the store a few weeks ago, and really wanted to try one, but didn't know if it would work. So this is perfect! Quaker Real Medleys™ Apple Walnut Oatmeal+: Oatmeal to go. Quaker is already the only brand of oatmeal I'll eat, so that was awesome. Sounds like a good flavor, so we'll see how that tastes. Kiss® Nail Dress™ in Teddy: I'm a big fan of the nail art strips, but I've never bought this brand before. They're really cute, so I'll have to post pics of my sparkly nails. NYC Liquid Lipshine in Nude New York: Really great color for every day wear, doesn't feel sticky. Actually tastes pretty good. I'm not a huge makeup wearer, but I like this one. Eboost® Natural Energy in Pink Lemonade: this is a little pink packet that has lots of vitamins. Most energy products make me jittery and weird feeling, so I'm gonna try this with caution. Might save it for a day when I just can't get going, but really need to. I also got a coupon code for $25 off a pair of Sole Society shoes. That's a dang good deal! I've never looked at the site, so I don't know if their shoes are Stacey style, but I'm gonna look and I'll get back to you. My voxbox contained a bonus item of Montagne Jeunesse Crushed Raspberry Fruit Smoothie Deep Pore Cleansing Mask in Raspberry and Mango. Wow, that's a mouthful. I've seen these little packets hanging on the endcaps at walmart, but I've never tried them. We'll see if this helps get rid of the nasty dry skin patch on my chin. :-/ I'm really excited to try all this stuff. I'll post more about each item as I try them. And just so ya know, I'm not getting paid by any of the companies or by Influenster to try these items or write about them. I just thought it would be fun. :) If you have any questions about any of the products, leave me a comment. I'll try to help you out as best I can. I'll update again when I get pictures of the products on my laptop.
