I received my very first box from box from Influenster yesterday and I’m SUPER excited about it. If you don’t know what Influenster is, it’s basically a site that will send you items totally free to try out and test all you have to do is link your social media your Influenster account to help you qualify for samples! Head over to www.influenster.com to check it out and sign up. You have nothing to lose! Who doesn’t love to try free stuff?!
I received a bunch of great stuff! Inside were a full size Retro Glam Mascara from Rimmel, a Soft Lips Cube, Nivea Skin Firming Moisturizer, Kiss Everlasting French Nails, and an air freshener that smells like pie! Yum!
I’m always using two mascaras to accomplish my desired lashes so I was super excited to see the Rimmel Retro Glam Mascara in Extreme Black in the box. I really like my lashes to have a lot of volume and length and have yet to find my holy grail mascara that does both. Unfortunately, after trying this out I will still be layering mascaras. This mascara is supposed to plump and fan out your lashes because of the hourglass brush shape, but I noticed a lot of fanning and not a lot of plumping! My lashes had a lot of length added to them, but they ended up looking long, scraggly and spider leggy. The volume I like was definitely missing. This isn’t a bad mascara, but it’s not one that I see myself using alone. If you really like length and separated lashes, try this one out.
I had never heard of a soft lips cube before this sample was provided to me. The product is supposed to hydrate, replenish, smooth, protect and add shine to your lips. It also has SPF 15 which I really like after having a bad experience getting sunburned lips that ended up super swollen and crazy looking! Not Angelina Jolie plump pretty… it was like stung in the lips by a bee people look at you and laugh hysterically crazy lips. LOL! Anyways, the cube I got has a light pomegranate blueberry scent. When you put it on it tingles a bit, but it definitely does leave your lips looking and feeling hydrated. I thought that the shine would be a bad thing, but I actually really like it! It’s just a little bit of shine that leaves your lips look healthy and moisturized. I can definitely see myself repurchasing this product when I use up this sample.
The Nivea Skin Firming Moisturizer is apparently supposed to help you have firmer skin in just 2 weeks. It smells really good, but I’m not sure it’s as moisturizing as I’d like. My skin can get dry so I’m always on the hunt for a good moisturizer. Anyways, the product promises to firm and tighten the skins surface since it has Q10 in it.. What the heck is Q10?! Not sure if it delivers on those promises since it’s only day 2, but I can see myself continuing to use this product just because it smells so good!
The Kiss everlasting nails my mom actually used for my grandma before and they do end up looking nice, but they kept falling off so I don’t really see myself using them since I don’t wanna walk around with the glue in my purse to keep gluing em back on throughout the day. These will most likely get tossed somewhere with my pile of samples I have, but don’t use.
Anyways, I’m pretty excited and happy with what I got in my Spring Fling Voxbox.
