Blossom Vox Box

I received a Blossom VoxBox from Influenster! It's probably my best one so far, I was really excited to qualify for and receive this one.

Inside was:

  • two bags of Beanitos chips: chipotle bbq and sea salt. Made with beans, not corn or wheat. 4g of protein and 6g of fiber.
  • Hair Food Root Cleansing Shampoo: this was the thing I was most excited about. The smell is fantastic, almost spicy. And the size was huge.
  • Bear Naked Granola, two bags: coconut almond curry and sea salt caramel apple. I might try mixing these with yogurt?
  • Nasoya Pasta Zero Noodles: I'm also pretty excited to try this, we are huge into pasta in my house but this is so much healthier than regular pasta.
  • NYC New York Color City Proof 24HR Eye Shadow, in Brooklyn Mocha: I've worn this twice already, it's a great shimmery bronze color.
  • Australian Gold Sunscreen Lotion SPF 30: this will be good for the summer, definitely. We enjoy camping, and I'm pretty fair skinned, so I'm prone to burning.
  • Sally Hansen Airbrush Legs in medium: this has me a little nervous to try. I like the Neutrogena version of this a lot, and this Sally Hansen looks pretty dark. I'll have to give it a shot.
Overall, this was an amazing box. Great variety, wonderful product sizes. Thanks, Influenster!

NYC New York City Color Proof 24HR Eye Shadow

(Full disclosure: I received this product free to try through Influenster)

I ended up with the NYC New York City Color Proof 24HR Eye Shadow in a great shade: Brooklyn Mocha. It's a fantastic shimmery, bronze color (I refuse to outgrow shimmer).

I have a horrible habit: I am an eye rubber. Without even thinking, I'm pushing my palms into my eyes and messing everything up. But I caught myself doing that a few times today, and even though it happened, the color lasted. I did not use primer on my lids, and even without, it lasted and had great color.

The packaging is pretty convenient: I'm a sucker for makeup that has that chunky, crayon feel. It makes it seem 'dummy proof', and sometimes I'm a makeup dummy. So, overall, love it! Kept my eyes bright and shimmery through the day, even with my bad habits.
