Hello my dearies! So Today I bring you guys a review!
So recently I was sent a free VoxBox from Influenster. It came with some pretty great things, and some I didn't like so much. As promised, here is my full and honest review! Stay tuned for a video review too!
Up above is the VoxBoxox I received, I'm just gonna go through each thing one by one!
CleanWell Sanitary Wipes: $29.99 for 50 pouches
CleanWell wipes state:
CleanWell wipes clean messes and kill germs with all natural ingredients that are easy of the earth. Their mild ingredients are great for hands and faces, and their one-use packet is ideal for all you-on-the-go activities!
I have a love hate relationship with these wipes. I do love how they are alcohol free. It makes them super gentle. Great for mommies with sticky kids. You can use this on them safely. It's also a great wipe for someone who has sensitive skin, like myself.
It did what is says it does. It gently sanitized my hands. Cleaned up any mess(I had makeup all over my hand, and it removed it fine). My only issue with it was the scent. I didn't care for the scent all that much. It said that it was supposed to smell like lemon. It smelled like oregano. Which makes perfect sense because it's one of the ingredients. I just don't think I would like to smell like oregano all day. That might not bother some, but it was just not for me.
These are great wipes. Super gentle! And gets the job done. Like I said, the only thing I didn't care for was the scent, but that might not be an issue for everyone. I would still recommend this product because it's so hard to find great natural products. And since this is both gentle and natural, it still gets a thumbs up from me!
The Original Dish Drying Mat: $4.99
The Original Dish Crying Mat states:
The Original Dish Drying Matt is a unique, laminated design that combines a thin layer of foam between two layers of high quality, super absorbent microfiber for a new dish washing experience, and saves water by hand-washing.
I was pretty excited to see this inside my VoxBox! We have always used a dish drying rack, so it was going to be neat to try a drying mat.
This mat is super absorbent! It did a wonderful job at soaking up all the water. Plus it's machine washable! All yo gotta do is toss it in the wash and that's it. Flat and simple, it does what is says it does. My only issue with this is the size. I feel that with a drying rack, it allows me to be more organized, and I can fit more dishes into it than with the drying mat. I would probably not recommend this to a larger household, as they are more likely to have a lot of dishes, and they simply wont all fit in the mat. Now if you're single or even a couple, this would be terrific for you, and would suit you better! However, for the price, I would recommend anyone to try it out.
Since we didn't find the mat great for the amount of dishes we use, we did start using it as a bath mat, for when we get out of the shower! It works perfect for that! Just soaks up all the water. And it's easier to wash that a regular shower mat!
Lypsil Intense Protection LypMoisturizer: $2.87 - $2.99
Lypsil States:
With pure Swedish beeswax, organic shea butter, and vitamins A and E, Lypsil Intense Protection LypMoisturizer will give your lips long-lasting, deep-penetrating moisture and lip care protection to moisturize, soften, and protect your lips naturally for a healthy pucker!
I am in love with this "LypMoisturizer". The packaging is cute and convenient!
There's a little bee on the slider, so adorable! It has a nice clean minty scent! And does a great job at keeping the lips soft and moisturized. The ingredients are pretty good! And it's long lasting. You don't have to re-apply often! I love how it glides on so smooth. Perfect!
I really put this lip balm to the test. I went on vacation to San Francisco, where the air is cool and windy. I would typically get dry chapped lips in that kind of weather, but with Lypsil on my lips, and a tube in my pocket, I returned home with nice supple lips! I even applied this under Mac's Ruby Woo, and no dryness! One of the best Lip balms I've tried!
I definitely would recommend this to anyone looking for a great natural lip balm. This stuff is so perfect. I'm totally gonna have to stock up on it! And hello, what a great and practical stocking stuffer!
EBOOST: $28 for a box of 20 effervescent powders, $39 for box of 30, & $39 for box of 12 shots
EBOOST states:
EBOOST will boost your mood, focus, and immunity with natural ingredients and no crash. As a shot or an easy to mix powder and in four flavors, you'll feel great whether you choose Orange, Pink Lemonade, Acai Pomegranate, or Super Berry.
This was the thing I liked the least! Oh how I loathe energy supplements you have to drink! I had high hopes for this but it failed me miserably.
I have a one good things to say. I love the packaging. It's practical and convenient. Toss one in your bag and use it when you need it! Also, the ingredients are pretty good so that's a plus. But really, that's it for me.
I had the hardest time getting over the taste. When I first took a sip it reminded me of Tang, but the flavor kept changing, then it left me with this overly sweet, saccharine taste. So awful! But I put on my big girl panties and finished the drink. I was hoping for some energy boost or something. Nothing at all. I didn't feel energized, I certainly didn't get a mood boost. I felt like I just drank it for nothing.
I feel bad for giving this such a negative review. But I would still recommend you trying it out yourself. Like I mentioned, I hate energy drinks/ supplements you have to drink. So my review may be a bit biased. So check out for other reviews too! However, if you're like me, and hate energy drinks, steer clear of this!
GEODEO: $5.99 for 2.3 oz stick
GEODEO states:
Reach a new level of purity, keeping you fresh for 24-hour odor protection. GEODEO Natural Deodorant Plus Detox Complex is a naturally-derived, breakthrough eco-technology, specially formulated to be safe for your body and your world!
This is another one of those products I have a love/hate relationship with! It did a great job at deodorizing! Plus the ingredients are natural, which is hard to find when looking for a deodorant. It had volcanic minerals and Icelandic algae, which is pretty neat. It's also meant to detoxify your underarms, which is a wonderful thing. And I don't no any other deodorant that can do that! And this smells phenomenal! The Island GEODEO smells like those Peach-O Gummy Rings! So good! And it's reasonably priced
You do have to keep in mind this is a deodorant. Not an anti-perspirant. I still had a problem with sweating when using this! Might be a great product for those cold winter months, but it's still like summer here in Southern California. So if you have a problem with sweaty pits, this is not the deodorant for you! I also am not too sure about how well it detoxifies. I honestly had no clue if it was or not. So that's something to think about. But I still really like it, and will be wearing it all through winter!
All in all, I would recommend this to someone looking for a good natural deodorant, but remember there are no anti-perspirant benefits to it. It may be a bit difficult to find in stores. But you can find it online! And go for the Island scent if you love Peach-O's!
NECTRESSE: $3.99 for 40 servings, 6.99 for 140 servings
NECTRESSE states:
NECTRESSE sweetner taste like sugar but with zero calories per serving! 100% all natural, NECTRESSE is made primarily from monk fruit, combined with other natural sweeteners.
I was pretty excited to try this out. Being that Splenda makes this, and Splenda is my choice artificial sweetener. This peaked my interest as being natural. Since I have been trying to take better care of my body, I've been swapping out a lot of things with better alternatives. I can see this really siting my newer lifestyle.
This sweetener is made up of primarily Monk fruit. Now, I'm the first to admit I've never heard of it. But that's what trusty google is for.
This comes in a nice convenient package. Great for our morning coffee or tea! And Easy to throw a few in your bag! Not so practical for baking! I wouldn't go as far to say it taste just like sugar because it doesn't. But it does have a nice pleasant sweetness. And it doesn't leave a gross aftertaste, which is nice!
I've received to small packets. I used one with a cup of Earl Grey. It added a nice delicate sweetness to it, and I didn't have to feel so guilty about it! I then opened the second packet and sampled it straight. That's where I noticed the difference. It doesn't taste like sugar, but you can pick up on a slight fruity taste, which I imagine is the monk fruit. It's not bad! I do feel that it make be a bit more sweet than regular sugar, so perhaps have a light hand when shaking some!
Overall it's quite yummy! And I do plan on purchasing some for my own! It's tasty, natural, and easy on the wallet. And you can consume it guilt free!!!
Parissa Wax Strips Face and Bikini: $9.00 for a box
Parissa states:
A natural, mess free, express hair remover that's ready to use. Parissa Wax Strips for Face and Bikini zip away unwanted hair on your upper lip, jaw, cheeks and bikini line instantly, keeping your skin smooth for up to six weeks!
Probably my most favorite product from this VoxBox!
I feel guilty as an ethetician for loving these so much! I have used some of the best and worst waxes and I must say, I love these so much. definitely on par with some of the better waxes. They are so easy to use. Practically dummy proof! And these really are mess free. I had no problems whatsoever!
From first inspection this looked like a honey wax. The wax comes in strip for. There are two sheets of plastic with the wax in the middle, you just rub them between your hands, warm up the wax, peel apart and start waxing away. This was so much simpler then my heating up the wax to the perfect temperature, cleansing the skin, powdering it down, cutting the right sight muslin strips, gathering a few applicators, and making sure you have a after cleanser or lotion. There are so many steps to traditional waxing. This also comes with a vile of azulene oil, which is great for calming irritated sensitive skin!
These Parissa strips are much more convenient and easy to use!
I know the biggest question in probably "Does it hurt?". With any kind of waxing you can experience pain. After all, you are ripping out hair from your body. The best tip I can give for waxing is to pull quickly. Don't ever pull the strip outward or upward. That will rip off some tissue, and is often a rookie mistake. Pull the strip across close to the skin and parallel. That guarantees the most painless experience!
Well this had been a review! This is my first review ever, so sorry if it's not that great or organized. If you do have any questions about anything, please feel free to ask, I would be more then happy to answer them!
DISCLAIMER!
Yes I was sent this VoxBox free from Influenster for testing review purposes. I am in no way getting paid by this company! I jut really love free stuff(who doesn't). All opinions are of my own! Every review is the honest truth.
