Influenster VioletVoxBox


I have recently received my long awaited VioletVoxBox compliments of Influenster. Here is a description that came with it:

"Inspired by this season's dark, moody florals, the Violet VoxBox is for the beauty queen of Influenster Nation. And, as surely as winter comes, we know that under layers of snow, spring violets still grow."

I just love how beautifully that is phrased! Here are the contents of the box:

Goody Athletique Headbands: $6.00 
Goody Athletique provides hold and comfort so you can be physically active and strong in body and mind. 

This came right in time for New Years resolutions. I am very excited to wear this while I jump around on my Wii Fit.

Sally Hansen New Triple Shine Nail Color: $4.99
New Triple Shine Nail Color! Daily defense from water and wear. Get ready for the shiniest nails ever! Water to workout, day in and day out, nothing will dull these nails. Available in 30 shades.  

I have the perfect outfit for this polish!!!

SOYJOY: $0.99
SOYJOY is an all-natural, gluten free snack bar made with non-GMO soybeans and real fruit pieces. Between 130-140 calories, SOYJOY is a great on-the-go snack or it can be enjoyed warm (unwrap and microwave for 8-10 seconds for a "fresh-baked" experience!) with coffee or a tea.

As a mom of a toddle I love a good healthy snack on the go! Plus, I love that this has non-GMO soy. For the last couple of years my husband and I have been really reading the ingredients of all the food we buy. However, I am probably going to try this one warm because it sounds really delicious! 

Montagne Jeunesse Clay Spas: $2.49
Join the Revolution and start a new weekly skincare regime with Clay Spas from Montagne Jeunesse. These natural bamboo fabric masks are infused with clay for cleansing experience that is better, quicker and easier than ever before. 

Just like with food, I am very conscious about the ingredients in my cosmetics.  The first thing I did when I received this package is read the ingredients. I was not disappointed. Everything on the list is something I recognized. Love that!

Not Your Mother's Clean Freak  Refreshing Dry Shampoo: $5.99
I know you're busy keeping up with social life! So don't waste precious time in the bathroom, just use Clean Freak. Get that perfect hair (and the perfect guy!) before all the other girls. Expect more room on your social calendar because this salon formula dry shampoo will have you and your hair ready for a night out on the town. 

I am a firm believer that hair shouldn't be washed everyday. In fact, I only wash my hair abut twice a week. I have been using this dry shampoo for the last couple weeks and I really like it!

           Yesterday, I have finally received my long awaited VoxBox from Influenster. Although the box came a little later than I expected, better late than never. Here is a picture of it:


 I haven't gotten to try any of these products yet but I am excited about every single one of them. The nail polish color is perfect for me! And I have never actually used a BB cream before.
