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!

My Petal Club

A new box!  And a PERIOD subscription box at that!  I love finding new boxes to try out, especially when they are this affordable!  This box is normally $6.99 per month, but if you use the discount code "SUMMER" on mypetalclub.com , this box will be only $3.50!  And let's be honest, one box of pads/tampons is usually more expensive than that, so why not give it a try?? So this box primarily consists of just the period products with very few extras.  This isn't one of the present, feel-good kind of boxes, it just provides you with the necessary products to get through the month, at an affordable price. Step One The first thing you do on their website is choose the combination of products you will need.  Be warned, you aren't given as much of a selection if you order through Cratejoy like I did.  It worked totally fine and I still got the products I needed, but I like choice!  So I suggest going straight through their website....

Homemade Beauty... Self Tanner

In need of a tan and don't have the time to get one? And then it gets worse... You check your beauty cabinet and are out of Self-tanner as well... So what now?? Mix your favorite powdered bronzer with you moisturizer for a temporary self-tan. It won't stain your skin like a self-tanner, and will wash off in water, but it works for a quick fix! Bonus? Mix a drop of body oil or olive oil with moisturizer for an all-over shimmer. Or maybe even add some loose glitter for shimmer and sparkle :)

Homemade Beauty... Banana Mask

Bananas, which contain vitamins A and E, are great for treating the flakiness and redness that caused by the cold winter air. The heavy cream in this mask also contains elastin, which will leave your skin feeling soft and supple. You Will Need: 1 Banana mashed well 2 Tablespoons heavy cream 1.5 Tablespoon honey 1.5 Tablespoon flour 1 Tablespoon of water Mix this into a nice mousse. Add the water last—a little at a time to get a nice consistency. Apply to the face; leave on for 10 minutes, then rinse. Credit to:  http://www.seventeen.com/beauty/tips/diy-beauty-treatments#slide-5
