Skinnygirl On-The-Go Bars Review

I have found a new daily treat. I have never tried these bars before even though that I had seen them on numerous occasions; and now that I have finally tried it all I can think is one thing. Why did I try these sooner?!?

These bars are delicious and are just the right size for a perfect snack or a quick meal if you don't have time to sit down for a regular breakfast.

The flavor that I had was the Coco-Nut with Peanut Butter. Now I will be the first to admit that I am not a huge fan of coconut flavored items but the combination of the coconut and peanut butter flavor was very appeasing to my senses. The coconut flavor does not override the peanut butter flavor or visa verse. Instead, they compliment each other and really wows your taste buds.

Here are a couple of links that any reader might find interesting to know more about this product.

 I got this product complimentary from Influenster.







PS. But I will be purchasing this product over and over again as I love it!

Secret Clinical Strength Stress Response Review

I am very familiar with the Secret brand of Deodorant as I am sure most people are. I am also familiar with the Clinical Strength Deodorant as it is the only deodorant that I will use.

Well, only one I would use.

I tried out the Secret Clinical Strength Stress Response out this morning and I can say that I am very happy with the results. I live in the south, so it does get very hot and humid here so having a good deodorant is very important. This one, I know will be able to last throughout the day in the southern heat. I only had to apply it once today, and despite the stressful day that I have had, it is still working!

And the smell...Oh it smells so good. That even after I had finished getting ready I had to smell it again. It doesn't have an overpowering scent but rather one that is subtle and clean. It is a scent that has stayed with me all day without fading, which just makes me so happy cause I hate it when I have on deodorant and I have to apply it more than one time a day. But with this one I have only had to apply it once and the scent of citrus has lasted all day.

I am proud to say that I be purchasing this product again and again and again in the future. And I do suggest that others try this product as well. It really does work.

I also encourage anyone to check out this link: http://www.secret.com/clinical-deodorant

Brand Challenge Winnings

Brand Challenge Winnings

 

I just wanted to just post a quick blog about the products that I received for winning a few of the College VoxBox Brand Challenges. I still have a couple of products that I am waiting to come in but as soon as I do, I will post pictures of them.

The first two products that I received from Broadway imPRESS Nails were these two:

This is the imPRESS Kiss Nail Dress. The style that I received was the Strip style and they were in the pattern Camisole. I can't wait to try out this product as I have always wanted to try them and I simple love the pattern of these.

This is the imPRESS Color Kit. The pattern that I got this time was the Ecstatic Cling, which is a bright pink. I can say with all honesty that while I would like to try these nails again, any kind of pink just doesn't suit me. So I will most likely end of giving these to my sister, who looks awesome in pink. But all in all, I do love this product.

The final product I have received so far is the NYC Sun N' Bronze Bronzing Powder. The color that I have is 706 Hamptons Radiance.
Now I will be the first to admit that I have not worn makeup in many years. This is mostly because I just didn't feel like it was not only worth the trouble but also the fact that I did not know what colors/tones would best suit me.
But I have decided to go back to wearing makeup once again and I have to say that it is all thanks to this product. This product is just so beautiful that I can't wait to put it on and try it out.


As I said, I do have two more products that are on their way to me and once I have received them, I shall be posting them either to another blog, or editing this one to add them as well.

Influenster Sweetheart VoxBox 2013

Influenster Sweetheart VoxBox 2013

Yep you read the title correctly. I got my second Voxbox today and I cannot be more excited with the products that are in it.
This is not my review of any of these products but rather pictures of the products and a short description about them. I will be doing a review about each product in an individual blog for each product. Let's get started!

The first product I got in my Voxbox was:

Olay Fresh Effects {Va-Va-Vivid} Powered Contour Cleansing System
A vibrating, tri-tip facial cleansing brush that packs some punch! This
battery-powered device reaches deep into contours, liberating skin
from dirt, oil, and makeup in hard-to-reach places for a clean that
is 400% better than basic cleansing.
Retail Price : $12.99

Olay Fresh Effects {Shine, Shine Go Away!} Shine Minimizing Cleanser
All the purifying power of a mask with the fresh feel of a daily cleanser.
This face washes gently lathers and reaches deep into skin to help
reduce the appearance of pores.
Retail Price: $6.99 for full size (5 oz)

The second product that I received in my VoxBox was:

Secret Clinical Strength Stress Response
Did you know there are three causes of sweat - heat, movement and stress? Stress sweat comes from a different gland, so it actually smells the worst. Secret Clinical Strength Stress Response in Serene Citrus is uniquely formulated to protect you from all three causes of sweat, especially stress sweat. It's proven 4x more effective at protecting against stress-induced underarm wetness than the wetness protection required of an ordinary antiperspirant.
Retail Price: $7.99 - $9.99

The third product that I got in my VoxBox was:
Skinnygirl Daily On-The-Go Bars
With only 180 calories per bar, you can enjoy Skinnygirl Daily On-The-Go bars guilt free. The bars are natural, kosher, and high in fiber. All bars now have MORE protein and MORE fiber, LESS sugar and FEWER carbs! These bars are the perfect indulgent treat for individuals looking to maintain a healthy lifestyle. The flavor that I received was Coco-Nut with Peanut Butter
Retail Price: $9.99 per box of 5 bars 

And the final product that I received in my VoxBox was:
Not Your Mother's Beach Babe Texturizing Sea Salt Spray
Rock a sexy beach look even on those days you're not at the beach! Infused with natural Dead Sea salt and sea kelp, Beach Babe helps create voluminous texturized and wind-swept waves.
Retail Price: $6.00 for full size

 I received these products complimentary for testing purposes from Influenster.

Another Brand Badge Winner!

Another Brand Badge Winner!

I must say that I am loving winning all of these badges. It makes me like the Influenster site that much more. Again I should be receiving my prize products within the next few weeks and I will be doing a blog post on each of them. I will also be doing an open box video on my YouTube account as well that I will link to this blog. I think that I am going to wait to get all of my products in before I do the box opening and start reviewing the products that I got. If anyone has any suggestions to how I should go about the video, then please feel free to leave a comment below.
~Thanks!
