Kiss Nail Dress Product Review Holiday VoxBox 2012

I was Lucky enough through +Influenster and @KissProducts to get to try to the New Kiss Nail Dress Nail stickers. 
 
I am a huge nail gal.  During the summers in particular when my nails grow better, I keep them painted at all times.  I must confess i have Never used the stick ons for nail fashion.  I thought it might be easier.  I really did NOT find it easier.  I usually get my nails filed, painted and top coated in about 10-15 minutes.  The process to put these on took me about 35 minutes.  You have to line up various sizes to see which one will fit on each nail, then lay it on and smooth it out, file the edge of the nail to get rid of any excess and voila.  Perhaps with more practice, it would be quicker.  Since i just did it today, I'm not sure how long they will last.  I do like the fancier look you can get without having to go to the salon.  You can pick out designs with raised jewels or multicolors all with just the one sticker.  So that is definately a bonus!  And the cost at my local walmart is just $5.97 for 28 strips, so much less expensive then the nail salon as well. 

The start to finish does look nice.  I was going to also do my toes, but the fingers and just two toes had taken 35 minutes and didn't want any more time going into this.  I may try some other designs in the summer without the jewels.  I also think it will be better when my nails are a little longer.  Wouldn't you know it?  Most of mine have been breaking recently!

Kiss Nail Dress claims to be "the ultimate nail fashion for tips and toes! Just peel, apply, and shape for a manicure that lasts up to a week. On in minutes, off in seconds without remover. Nail Dress is available in 21 different styles, many of them featuring 3-dimensional jeweled designs--"

Montagne Jeunesse Face Masque

LOVE, LOVE, LOVE This Face Masque!!!


This is the best face mask I have tried!  I was provided this free from +Influenster as part of the Holiday VoxBox 2012- a Raspberry and Mango Deep Cleansing Masque.    Let me tell you just a few things about this totally relaxing experience.
  1. Fragrance-  This smelled heavenly.  It said fruit smoothie face masque on the front and that was NO LIE!  It smelled light and sweet, just like a smoothie.  Some face masks are not pleasant smelling at all.  Not this one!  The smell was so nice, it was very relaxing.
  2. Natural Ingrediants: " With a huge array to choose from, our face masques are packed with the most delicious natural ingredients and are bursting with luscious fragrances. Suitable for all different skin types, there is one to suit every mood and everybody!"  (see http://bit.ly/VNjT9y)
  3. Texture- This mask was thick and creamy.  There is plenty in the small little packet to adjust thd thickness to what you like.  I first put on a thin layer because i wasn't sure there would be enough.  But there was plenty and put on a second layer right over the top.
  4. Cleansing- The package says to leave this item on for 10-15 minutes.  After about 12 minutes, it was starting to feel tight, but not overly so and i took it off then.  Simply with a wet washcloth, it came off without rubbing.  It left my face feeling very clean.
  5. Price-- After i used my free masque, I checked out my local Walmart and noticed they had these for $1.70 a piece and picked up a chocolate masque!  Haven't used that one yet, but looking forward to it.

Eboost Pink Lemonade

I received a Pink Lemonade flavor packet of Eboost in my Holiday VoxBox from Influenster (http://bit.ly/VQQ87d ) and i must admit I had never heard of it before, but figured I'd give it a try.  On the package it promotes that it gives you natural energy and immunity.  You are just supposed to add it to water and allow to effervesce. 

This product is Gluten and soy free.  It contains vitamins, minerals and nutrients to boost your workout.  So today, i mixed it up and drank one packet mixed with water prior to my workout.  The flavor was good and i like the cabonation, however, i'm sad to say it did not appear to boost my energy at all.  For more information on Eboost- check out their website--  http://bit.ly/WrjF6M and although i didn't find it to boost my workout I did like that it contains many vitamins such as C, D, Niacin, zinc selenium and potassium all of which helps to keep my immune system strong during the winter... so might as well drink it!  It tastes good!

Quaker Real Medleys Oatmeal+ Review

I don't usually like oatmeal, but i had received the Quaker Real Medleys Oatmeal free from Influenster (http://bit.ly/U1EaIY) in the Cherry Pistachio flavor.  I had a bite and gave the rest to my husband.  Then i went out and bought the Apple and Walnut flavor.  This was by far, my favorite.


Wow.... bad Picture.... can't even tell its the Apple Walnut flavor!  This was super convenient.  Just add boiling water, wait three minutes and its ready!  Just like that.  It was good too.  A little sweet and it does have 290 calories.  Overall, a really good taste though.
 
This was after adding the water, but before stirring it all up.  It does mix really well.  The influenster site specifies the price at $1.79 a cup.  I picked mine up at Walmart at $1.58 per cup.  This still seems a little high for an individual cup of oatmeal, but i did really like the convenience factor.  This would be great to keep at the office and then if i dont have time to eat at home, can pop it in the microwave when i get to work.  The convenience of it cooking within the cup it comes in is AWESOME!  You can take it with you! So while i probably wouldn't have this my first choice for every day oatmeal due to the higher price per serving, I will definately have some on hand for breakfast in a pinch.
