Loot Crate September 2013 Box

I received my second Loot Crate Box for September a couple of weeks ago and I have just now gotten the time to sit down and write this blog about what I received in this Loot Crate. For those of you who do not know, Loot Crate is a monthly subscription box that costs less than $20 a month and in this box there are items for Gamers, Geeks, etc. Each box has a theme and this month's theme was Animate. Now let's see what I got in my box.

The first item that I got, and one I was most excited to get, was a Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle POP! Vinyl Figure. Each Loot Crate subscriber had a chance to get one of the four Ninja Turtles and I was really happy that I received my all time favorite one, Raphael. I was also really happy to get a POP! Vinyl figure cause as many of you know they tend to cost anyway from $10 to $15 dollars each, depending on where you get them.

The second item that was in my box was a Kid Robot The Simpsons Blind Box Keychain. Now each Loot Crate subscriber would either get a Simpsons Blind Box Keychain or a Futurama Blind Box Keychain. Personally I would have rather gotten a Futurama Blind Box Keychain as I enjoy Futurama better than The Simpsons but I was happy none-the-less. The keychain that I got was of Homer's Dad, his name escapes me at the moment. I also know for a fact that these type of Blind Boxes tend to run from $5 to $9 each, again this does depend on where you purchase them.

The third item that I received was a Stimpy Talking Plushie. Ren and Stimpy has been one of my favorite cartoons of all time and I was really excited to be able to add a Stimpy Plushie to my collection of plushies that I have collected over the years. I would think that since this plushie is a brand name toy and also a product of Jazwares and Nicktoons that the plushie itself would cost about $10 but again I am not sure because I have not been able to find these plushies in any stores near me.

The fourth item that I got in my box was a Teenage Muntant Ninja Trooper Magnet. I was also really happy to get this as not only am I a Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle fan but I am also a Star Wars fan. So now that I have a magnet that incorporates both of these things, I am just over the move with happiness and geekiness. I do not know how much this item would cost individually as I have not seen an item like this before but if anyone is interested the company name that made this magnet is called Bizklimkit.

The fifth item that I got in my box was a Yoshi Fruit Splash Lip Balm. Now I am a gamer and I do not deny this fact, and since Mario is one of my favorite Nintendo games of all time, why wouldn't I be happy about owning a lip balm like this. Loot Crate subscribers had a chance to either get the Yoshi Lip Balm or a Lip Balm from Family Guy. I do not know how much these cost but given their brands, I would estimate that perhaps each lip balm would be about $5 to $7 each.

The final two items that I received in my box were two stickers. One sticker was a PokeAwesome Sticker, which comes from the web show made by Egoraptor that can be found on YouTube. I suggest that if anyone is looking for a funny and entertaining show that you should go and check out this show. The sticker itself is of Egoraptor's conception of Pikachu and the sticker itself is of a textured vinyl make. The final sticker that I received was of the most favorite line that all Geek's and Gamer's know and proudly say. IT'S OVER 9000! is a saying that was made famous in the anime Dragon Ball Z by the character Vegeta during his first meeting with the Z-fighters of Earth. And for those of you who are wondering, yes I am a huge fan of the show and I have seen every episode multiple times and I am not ashamed to admit this fact. The sticker itself is a wall sticker and is textured as well.

Well that was what was in my September 2013 Loot Crate. I am going to be receiving the October Loot Crate before I am going to cancel my subscription but I do plan on re-subscribing as soon as I am able to again.

Until next time!  

Secret Agent Beauty Secret Lip Affair Review

Yet another product that I am so glad I was able to try. Thank you Birchbox!
Now of this product, I am not sure if it is a deluxe size sample or if it is the full size sample. Either way, I am going to be repurchasing this lip product.

First of all the product design itself...ADORBS! I love love love it! It is also the perfect size to just throw in your purse or in a clutch and take it with you which I have done :).

The product itself goes on really smooth, and for those wondering I got the Diamond Girl Detective one, which is the clear one. I can be honest that I haven't had a clear lip product in so long but this one has now become my favorite. Not only does it go on smooth, it smells SO good too and stays on for a few hours before I have to reapply. I am not sure of the scent but to me it smells similar to that of cool peppermint with a hint of coconut maybe. And whenever I put it on my lips, it instantly cools them; which again living in the humid south is such a treat to be able to give my lips.

I do not know where you can purchase this item but once again if anyone knows, then please feel free to comment so that anyone who wants to try this product can try it! It really is a treat to your lips and I urge everyone to try it at least once.

Until next time!

Jasmine Seven Fresh Feet Wipes Review

Picture Source: Google

Like everyone else I love pampering my feet at least once a week so when I got two sample wipes in the August Birchbox I was happy to be able to try a new foot product. And since I have never tried feet wipes before, I was ready to try something new and I was not disappointed.

Okay, I have tried many different types of wipes before, from facial to lotion wipes, and I must say that these wipes are very well made. They are very high quality and the wipes themselves are of a very decent size, that I was able to do both of my feet with just one of the wipes.

The smell of the wipes was also amazing. It smelled just like peppermint and aloe, which I love both scents. It was not overpowering at all and was actually soothing to the senses which is another plus to the product for me.

The product itself really did soothe my feet and I am very happy with the results of it. I would recommend this product to anyone who wants to treat their feet to something special, your feet will thank you!

Until next time!

Avene Thermal Spring Water Review

Picture from Allure.com

I received a deluxe size sample of this from my August 2013 Birchbox and I must admit that I am surprised at how much I have grown to love this product.

The size that I received is a 50 ML or a 1.76 oz spray bottle. The packaging is simple and the size of the product makes it easy for me to just throw it into my purse and take it with me everywhere.

This product is used to spray different parts of the body in order to refresh the skin and to soothe it. I use it on my face and neck, but it can be used anywhere on the body; there is even a diagram showing how it can be used on a baby's bottom. So this product is pretty much safe to use on anyone if it is safe enough of a baby.

Since I live in the South, August and September are always high in humidity and dryness which is not good for any type of skin. So it is safe to say that I will continue to use this product as well as repurchase it in the 50 ML bottle as soon as I am able to locate a store that carries it. If anyone knows of where I can buy this, feel free to comment below! :D

So I guess you can say that this is a very useful product and I do recommend others to give this product a try.

Until next time!
