Influenster's I Do Vox Box


I received a free I Do Vox Box from Influenster to test out some products. This is my first vox box. Influenster is a review site that also sends out products for its users to try and review. Not everyone gets a vox box. You have to answer questions called snaps, earn badges by reviewing products on their site and just have good luck.
This box has items that are themed around attending a wedding.


  • Nanoblur by Indeed Laboratories- This is a primer that is supposed to blur fine lines, pores, crow's feet etc. It goes on really easy and doesn't feel greasy. For me it does blur out pores. It does tingle a bit but otherwise it seems to work well.
  • Sahale Snacks Almonds with Cranberries, Honey and Sea Salt- I really liked these. I don't normally like cranberries but in this mix they were really good. Just sweet enough to satisfy any sweet cravings but not so sweet that you feel like you are eating candy. I will end up buying these.
  • SkinnyGirl Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough bar- This was not a horrible product but I just didn't like it. The texture is just wrong and it is almost too sweet.
  • URGENTx Ache & Pain Relief- A single dose of powder you put directly on your tongue. The flavor is Lemon-Lime. When I get around to trying this I will update this.
  • Neutrogena Hand Cream- Not what I was expecting. I thought this would be like a thick lotion but it isn't. It is a clear cream that reminds me of heavy duty chap stick. A little goes a long way. It is a bit difficult to work into your hands at first but once you do they feel so soft. I am going to stash this away for Winter.



And the last two products in this vox box are from CoverGirl
  • CoverGirl Outlast Stay Luminous Foundation- I received this in creamy natural which is about one shade darker than most foundations I use. I tried it out anyway. It goes on smooth and is build-able which is something I like in my foundations. Being able to decide how sheer or opaque based on the individual day. I have used CoverGirl foundations in the past and this is a lot better than the last one I bought. I would buy this for myself in a lighter color.
  • CoverGirl Outlast lipstick- The color is Phantom Pink. It is a rosy pink. It is creamy and goes on evenly. I rarely wear pink lipsticks but this one is just dark enough to work as a "no make-up look" lipstick. This Vox Box was delivered on one of the hottest days so far this year and this lipstick had NOT melted in the mailbox. That alone impressed me.
