Another Influenster Box! The Vitality Box

*I received this box from Influenster for free for testing purposes.*

I received my Influenster Vitality Box about two weeks ago and I can say that I always enjoy what Influenster has to offer. Unexpected items that I have seen, thought about trying or have never heard of before.  This box included various items such as:

  • First Degree Advanced Burn Cream (Retails $5.97-$8.99)
  • Playtex Sport Fresh Balance tampons (Retail $3.99)
  • Elizabeth Arden FLAWLESS FUTURE Powered by Ceramide Caplet Serum (Retail $60 for 1.0 fl oz)
  • Pure Leaf Iced Tea
  • Softlips Cube (Retail $3.49)
  • Bikini Ready Energy Gummies (Retail $14.99; select Influenster members received this item).
Overall, I can say that I am completely satisfied with the box.  I have to start using the Elizabeth Arden more, but from the time that I did use it, it was smooth, soft, and gentle on the skin.  I just turned 28 almost two weeks ago so it is time that I started being more thorough with my skin care regimen.  The Bikini Ready Energy gummies were really good.  I only had a sample of two but I could see that going into my dietary regimen (once I begin a good one again lol).  One item that I really love is the Softlips Cube.  I currently have been using the EOS lip balm and I can say that the Softcube is giving EOS a run for their money!  It has shea butter in it and it glides on much smoother than the EOS lip balm.  I tweeted that it felt like butter on my lips and it really does!  I would definitely go to the store to make that purchase once I have used all of it up.  (Shameless plug follow me on Twitter and Instagram @ebanx15) :)

The Pure Leaf tea was very good.  I think I have tried it before but what drew me more to it this time was that I actually read the label and it is fresh brewed tea with no preservatives so its natural.  That let me know that this would be the tea I reached for if I was in the grocery or convenience store.  I haven't had the chance to try the First Degree Burn cream but I did swatch it and its a typical cream that glides on well and absorbs into the skin.  Also I haven't tried the Playtex Sport tampons and I am looking forward to that as I have always been a Tampax girl.  I'm not as active as I was before but I'm looking for the coverage to see if it would be good to use when I am active.  I do work retail so I spend much time walking around and on my feet so that would test the protection as well.  

As always Influenster has YET to let me down!  I enjoy the program very much and I hope I get to continue to receive boxes.  Testing these items becomes the highlight of my day! ^_^

Until next time...
Peace & Happiness :)
