Homecoming VoxBox

I was so happy to have received another awesome box of free stuff in the mail!!
I love getting mail... Especially packages!

This is called the "Homecoming VoxBox"
I'm assuming this means it contains things such as school essentials, and things to make yourself look super cute for Homecoming court and Homecoming dances!  
Oh, and food, what High Schooler doesn't love food.

I'll start out with the given product description, and then give my personal opinion...
"Luden’s throat drops offer deliciously soothing relief of irritated throats. Enjoy 4 new flavors: WATERMELON, Strawberry-Banana, Blue Raspberry, and Green Apple."

I am not the type of person who reachers for cough drops every time they get sick, because I think they are disgusting, but apparently these taste like candy! 
So Watermelon for the win!

"Red Vines candy is the deliciously rewarding treat that has been making special moments even sweeter for generations. Whether you pick-up the classic tray at the movie theater concession stand or bring them on a family road trip, Red Vines candy has been an essential part of celebrating life’s sweet moments for decades."

I'm not a huge fan of these, but I also don't really like Twizzlers...  From what I have read though, these are much different than Twizzlers, and taste much more like licorice.  All of this aside, my boyfriend loves them so he will enjoy receiving these! 

"Discover a rush of moisture with new Olay Active Botanicals Refreshing Gel Cleanser. This gel cleanser washes away impurities, leaving skin soft, fresh, and ready or the next step in your daily skincare regimen. Restore hydration with the Olay Active Botanicals moisturizing hydra complex formulated with Snow Mushroom—a naturally-derived botanical that can hold up to 500x its weight in water. Used for centuries by women in China, this ancient secret has been updated for modern skincare. "

So... I have actually yet to try this because I have a very big event coming up and don't want to alter my skincare regimen before it, you understand right?
Despite this, I am very excited to try, and am expecting magic things to happen because of those mushrooms!

"Our Jalapeño chips have a zesty, south of the border flavor. Striking a perfect balance between fresh, well-rounded flavor and the clean, spicy bite of jalapeño peppers, these all natural chips are easy to eat with a satisfying burn that sneaks up on you."

Guys... my bag was open when I received them!  This made me very sad, but I decided to take my chances and try them anyway, for you all!  Consensus, they are super spicy, but really good, and surprisingly not stale considering the bag was open!


"Get over the top shine! Introducing SinfulColors SinfulShine 2 step manicure with with GelTech. 
Step 1: Apply 2 coats of our 27 vibrant colors!
Step 2: Seal with our top coat for added shine and wear!"

I was probably most excited about these.  I love red nail polish, and have actually been needing to buy a new top coat!  I can not answer for the wear right now, but overall I am super excited to see how it turns out!

These were the less fun paper things I received in this package.  The top card is talking about a scholarship that I am ineligible to apply for, the bottom left is the product description card, the bottom right is an advertisement for Sinful colors, and the middle is a laptop sticker!

Remember, all of these products were sent to me for free to review, but the opinions were completely my own!

College Countdown: Basic College Packing List

In this list I'm not going to go over every single thing.  Throughout this week I will do separate posts on Clothing and Makeup etc.  On Saturday of this week I will post a concise version of this including everything mentioned.  For now I would just like to go over basics such as kitchen items, "school supplies" and other items you may not have thought of! Kitchen These are basics that you might need if you are in a dorm and do not necessarily have a kitchen.  I will have a sink, so it will be doable for me to wash dishes as needed.  If you do not have a sink you might consider buying disposable silverware and dishes so you won't have to wash them in the bathroom. Plastic Bowls Plastic Cups Tumblers or Reusable Water Bottles - I recommend this regardless of if you have a sink. Brita Pitcher - The water will probably be different from what you are used to, and this will make the transition easier Ice Cube Trays Plastic Ice Cubes - If the water is jus...

College Countdown: Packing Clothing and Cleaning Out

Let's tackle the packing part first... Instead of folding or rolling all of the clothes which needed to be hung up and carting them to college in a suitcase, I left them on hangers and wrapped a trash bag around them.  Once arriving in my dorm I hung them up, cut off the bags, and everything was great!  Also, if you can guarantee that you won't need your warm winter kind of clothing until after Fall Break, then don't bring it!  Take home summer clothes over Spring Break and bring back any fall clothes (which I'll mark on this list with a * for convenience). Many people on the Internet strictly recommend the thin felt hangers, I have used cheap Walmart hangers and haven't had a problem, so I guess it's personal preference! Dresses Little Black Dress Versatile Skirt "Party" Dress Sunday Dress Shirts Button Downs - Can be worn as light jackets in the spring and fall, or more formally if needed.  I suggest bringing: Denim/Chambr...

Bulu Box: February

So I saw a coupon on this Subscription box which would make every box you ever ordered $5 instead of $10, which sounds great right?  Not so my friends... I figured this would be a nice health subscription box with healthy food and workout tips, maybe with a few supplements... It is almost entirely supplements, and I am not a big enough health nut to buy into it all... So needless to say, I canceled, but thought I'd let you know what I received and a couple of the small highlights! The first thing I pulled out was the Vital 4U Fiber Drink which is: "Packed with soluble prebiotic fiber...to promote better gut health and digestion."  These are $12.00 for a 12 pack, and I received two, so basically a $2 value.  I gave these to my mom to add into our smoothies she makes for an added boost, because I didn't want to drink them straight. There were the only things I was SUPER excited about! I love gummy vitamins!  These were the best I had ever tried, with a g...
