Influenster/VoxBox & Other things....

How exciting!  I've been chosen by Influenster to receive the beauty blog VoxBox!  I'm so excited, y'all.  :)

Have you heard of Influenster?  I signed up a while ago but the site was confusing and I had NO idea what I was doing, so I sort of let it sit there and gather dust.  BUT, they've relaunched the site and made it a TON easier to figure out what in the heck is up.  When I signed on, I was really impressed!  If you're on Influenster already, you should sign back in and look at the new site.  If you're not, WHY?  Let me know if you'd like an invite!

And...I'm a little ways into to my new skincare/anti-aging stuff.  I've found a couple of things that I really like and one thing that is UGH...so awful.  Wanna hear about them?  Probably not, but I'm gonna tell you anyway.

What I love:

Mario Badescu cleanser, toner, mask and exfoliator.  I received some really generous samples from them with a whole regimen based on a questionnaire that I filled out on their site.  I'm really a fan of the cleanser they sent.  It is the Seaweed Cleansing soap.  It smells great, is really gentle and doesn't dry out my face.  The Aloe Vera Lotion/Toner is amazing!  I usually don't use toner because it tends to burn my face and make it all dry and yuck.  But this one doesn't.  LOVE it!  The mask and exfoliator I received is great too.  I'm sort of meh about their eye cream I was sent and the bee pollen night cream smells FANTASTIC but it kind of makes me feel a little greasy.  The day cream they sent smells alright, but doesn't make me feel greasy and wears pretty well under makeup.

What I HATE:

RoC 4-Zone Daily Moisturizer.  Holy crap.  It feels like I've got a heavy mask on my face when I use this.  I think I'm going to try to mixing it with some other carrier lotion to make it less heavy because I'm cheap and I didn't buy it at a store that would let me return it.  It seriously feels gross.

I've also received another Beauty Box...this one from Beauty Bar-Sample Society.  But I'll make a different blog for that.  AND I should receive my ipsy/MyGlam bag soon as well as my TOTALLY underwhelming (again) Birchbox.

Thanks for stopping by!  And if you'd like to have an invite to Influenster, let me know!
