Influenster Bella Vox Box Review

Influenster picked me to test out some items in the Bella Vox Box! Though I received these items for free, opinions are all my own. This box was a fun mix of products. I like that Influenster fills their boxes with different types of products and not solely beauty items.
Wanna see what was inside?? I know you do!

Rimmel Kate Mascara

 Kate Moss teamed up with Rimmel London to create a line of beauty products. We got to try out the Scandaleyes mascara and also a lipstick. I rarely wear black mascara because my lashes are a little out of control. They look best with brown. But that said, this is a nice mascara, not clumpy, and applied nicely.

Rimmel Kate Lasting Finish Lipstick:

 Though my photo is dark, you'll have to trust me, this is RED. I'm not sure I can really pull of the red lipstick look, but again I like the product itself. It's not sticky, and applies nicely. I can't speak for longevity as I didn't leave it on for long.

Not Your Mother's Deja Vu-Do Style Extender:

 I like this. I like it a lot. It's a cream not a powder, so I don't feel like I'm putting dandruff in my hair. And it smells great too!

Sally Hansen Airbrush Legs

 Admittedly, I probably won't actually try this. My legs are rarely allowed out in the wild so I don't have much need for a self tanner. Or maybe I desperately need it for my ghost white legs? I'm not sure. Either way, not a product for me, but I'm sure for those who do worry about having tan legs without the skin cancer risk, I bet it's a great product! I am, in general, a big fan of Sally Hansen.

Ecotools Mattifying Finish Brush:

 THIS I'm excited about! I have a shortage of large brushes, so this was exactly what I need!I really like the Ecotools brushes (I've recieved them before in other boxes) and this one is no exception. It's very soft and does not yet shed everywhere like some brushes can do.

Dove Chocolate Covered Blueberries:

Obviously, I've saved the best for last. These are SO DELICIOUS!!!!!!!!!! I wish the box was filled with them. No really. I'm gonna have to go buy many more bags. You might want to also. I mean, the candy and the fruit cancel each other out. So it's like you didn't even eat them, right?

What do you think of my Bella Vox Box items? Have you used any of these products? Thinking of trying them out? Let me know in the comments!

Mani Monday!

It's been a LONG WHILE since I've had a Mani Monday post. But this snowy weekend allowed me the time to get things done in the house AND have time to let my nails dry. That's a feat!
Saturday proved to be one of the laziest days EVER in my 34 years. I got up early, fed the horses, made breakfast, lounged around... Finally cleaned the barn and turned the horses out between 1 and 5, then commenced more doing nothing in the house. It was epic. But as a result, I vowed to be MUCH more useful on Sunday. And I was! So much so that I had time to do my nails! And try out my awesome new custom Jamberry nail wraps. I will apologize in advance for the terrible photos.

Close up of my Jamberry nail wrap:

My main nail color is Sally Hansen City Pleasure. It's a subtle, yet shiny gold that is perfect in two coats. I did my tips in Maybelline Color Show Avante Green. I regret the polish choice for the tips. It took heavy coats to show up, and it was really tough to keep them even and straight with the multiple thick coats. A darker more opaque green would have been better.
My Jamberry Nail Wrap was my own custom design. That's Rio! I should have made the picture smaller though, since my nails aren't very long. Poor pony got cut in half! Once I use up this sheet I'll try again with a smaller photo. Stay tuned for nail wraps featuring The Pugs too!

I always start my mani's with Nailtiques as a base coat. Lately I've been finishing them with the Sally Hansen Gel Top Coat that I got from Influenster. It does seem to keep my mani fresh longer!

So that's today's Mani Monday. What's on your nails today?
