Updated Influnster VowVoxBox!

I have had the #VowVoxBox now for over three weeks and I can say that I am quite satisfied!  All of the items have been put to use with the exception of the discount code to Riley & Grey (I don't plan on having a wedding ceremony or traditional wedding anymore).  My number one item from the box would have to be the Olay Regenerist Luminious Tone Perfecting Cream Moisturizer.  This stuff is the BIZ-NESS!  I actually did a review on Facebook and tagged Olay.  I discussed how I did not like the white cast and/or how it was showing on my face and Olay tagged me to let me know that I was using too much product.  Kudos to Olay!  My next favorite product was the Sally Hansen Salon Manicure polish in Barracuda.  The color is blue and it is so cool and cute!  Click here to see a picture on my Instagram page!  I have gotten plenty of compliments from others.  I haven't had to use my Tide to Go pen but as I stated it is MUCH better than the Tide to Go wipes that I happened to pick up from Target on clearance.  Lastly, the EcoTools Pure Complexion Sponge has changed the way that I wash my face.  I still use it in between using my Clairsonic and I think that it has also aided in helping my complexion when tag teaming with the Olay Regenerist cream.

Overall I would rate all of these items a MUST have to keep at home or with you on the go.  Again I want to thank +Influenster for allowing me to try these products as well as +olay +EcoTools Tide +SallyHansenTV and Riley and Grey.  

Until next time...

Peace & Happiness :)

Influnseter VowVoxBox!

I received these products complimentary for testing purposes from Influenster.   

I received my Vow Vox Box in the mail last week and I can say that I am quite pleased so far.  What I was most excited about was receiving the Olay Regnerist Luminious Tone Perfecting cream.  I had seen this in the store a few times and wanted to try it out, I just wasn't willing to pay the price.  Since I pick with my face a lot (bad habit I am learning to break) I wanted to see if what they claimed would work (dark spots will fade within eight weeks).  It's good so far I just have to make sure that I am consistent with it.

My next favorite item is the EcoTools Pure Complexion sponge.  I have NEVER seen it before it stores so it really caught my eye when I unboxed it.  I have tried it about three times and I like it so far.  The pro is that I feel it gets a deeper clean than using my hands and works well on by off day when I am not using my Clairsonic.  The con is that I feel that it sucks up much of the product that I use to clean my face.  I found that if I use the product on my face first then work it with the sponge I get a much better clean.  I am still playing around with that.

I haven't did a full review on Riley & Gray, but I am ready to use the 50% off discount code that I have.  Hopefully tomorrow I will be giving the Sally Hansen Salon Manicure nail polish in Barracuda (pictures to come soon :))  Also, I am going to be using the Pure Silk Moisturizing shaving cream tomorrow as well.  A Vine post will be dedicated to that :)

My last item is the Tide to Go pen.  I can say that I am pretty satisfied with that since I was eating BBQ sauce and dropped some on my nice white tank!  I grabbed it and tested it out and it worked.  You can tell something happened but its barely there.  I would give the Tide to Go pen two thumbs up over the Tide to Go wipes that I tried.  They SUCKED!  Two thumbs down for that.

As always I will give a more detailed final review when I have used the products over four weeks or longer.  I would recommend trying the EcoTools Pure Complexion sponge, Olay,  and the Tide to Go pen.  Until next time...

Organized Hoarder

For a long time now, I have been keeping up with things that others may see as junk, but it's my treasure!  I went home for Labor Day weekend and brought back with me books I had as a child.  I have had some books for 20 years!  And they are in such good condition you thought some where purchased right from the store.  So now that leads me to being an organized hoarder.  I know for some that may not make ANY sense, but for others they are telling themselves, " I knew there was a word for it!"  My cousin started calling me an organized hoarder last year when he was asking me for things that as he said, "normal" people don't have.  "Why do you have a whole bag of paper clips and thumb tacks?"  Just in case reasons?  Any who, I have been trying to organize my thoughts and my life and started going through stuff in my guest room that needed to have a place.  I already showed my jewelry display so here are some other items I purchased to add to my organizing addiction.


Here are a few of my lippies!  I LOVE Revlon lipsticks!  Some people don't really care of the consistency of them but I think they are the bomb.com!


I didn't realize how many nail polishes I had until I spread them out on the floor.  The bad thing about this I really ONLY get my toes done and have yet to paint my nails until this past Sunday.  I told myself that I was going to get better at that.


This idea I got from Pinterest.  Why keep a nail polish bottle open, knock it over, and risk messing everything up?  Of course when you look at the picture its like a light bulb goes off!  Brilliant!

So I went to Amazon and purchased two lipstick holders and a spice rack.  Wait, what?  A spice rack?  How does that play into the role of beauty and organization you say?  Well just take a look!



My spice rack now turned nail polish rack!  I can actually SEE what I have and its easily accessible!  #Winning


These are acrylic lipstick holders from Amazon from US Acrylic.

Hope you enjoyed.  Always check out Amazon for great deals!
