Something Blue - Summer 2013

Well I'm not getting married, at least not that I know of, lol. This is just a sneak peek of what I got in my Influenster Something Blue VoxBox. 

I have already had a chance to try out the Urgent Rx Ache & Pain Relief To-Go, and the Kiss everEZlashes. I'm looking forward to try the rest and check out the MyTrio Rings. 

Check back soon for more updates about single products ^_~

Ivory® 2-IN-1 Hair & Body Wash

A few weeks ago I was picked to try out  Ivory® 2-IN-1 Hair & Body Wash by Influenster.

The product is marketed as a 2 in 1, hair and body wash. Now, I have never been a big fan of 2 in 1 washes but this was above average. The scent is very pleasant, as a body wash it is great! But as a shampoo/conditioner...eh, it is okay. It worked great as a clarifying shampoo but it really lacked on the conditioning part.

Check out this cute little video that helps to show the ease and space that the Ivory® 2-IN-1 Hair & Body Wash can give in your shower. HERE!

I have worked through 90% of the bottle. Here is what I would rate this product at, as a body wash - 10, as a shampoo/conditioner - 7. Would I buy it again? Maybe, sure. I would just get a good conditioner to go with it.

You can check out more Ivory® products here at their facebook page.



The product I sampled above was sent to me by Influenster at no cost, and all opinions are my own.

Influenster Makeover!

Now you all have seen my post before this about my fall 2012 Naturals Vox Box (thats the name for these boxes).

Let me go into more detail about what a Vox Box is and how Influenster works, with a little help from them of course - I don't want to mush any of this up! ^_^

There are 4 major changes to the new relaunch of the Influenster brand. Before it was as simple as sign up, fill out your profile, do a few reviews and fingers crossed that you get one in your mail box. This is all shiny and new. Here are the biggest changes:


Influenster Score:
Your score is the biggest measure of your standing within Influenster and will determine your qualification in programs. Scores go up by connecting your social channels and showing your social influence. 

LifeStage & Expert Badges:
We're introducing two new types of badges - LifeStage & Expert. LifeStage represent where you are in your life, while Expert Badges are all about what you know, and are scored to show off your expertise in various areas. Leave reviews and complete other tasks to raise your scores and get higher chances of qualifying in programs. Influensters can earn up to five Expert Badges to start. 

Reviews:
We know you’ve loved reviewing VoxBox products, but what about the millions of other products you use and love? In October, you'll be able to add any product to our review pages and leave reviews on everything!

Invite Only:
Our trendsetting community just became more exclusive. New members are now required to request an invite to join. Prior members will retain their memberships and can invite up to five few friends. The more influential your referrals, the higher your Influenster Score will rise.



I really do enjoy the new changes! The interface looks much better, more streamline. As for the changes with the Badges and your score, it is a great way to make sure you get boxes that are more aimed towards your preferences. As you do reviews and share items your score will go up, and that will help with the chances of getting a super awesome Vox Box!

The ablity to share your item reviews, photos of products and link through social media, it is a great way to get your voice heard! This is definitely more blogger friendly :-D


Another new thing that I like about this new Influenster is that it is more exclusive. Not only do you need an invite to join the site, but you earn your Vox Boxes as well. The more you participate, the bigger the reward! Well earned and well deserved rewards.


I'm looking forward to more fun treats from Influenster and to see how these changes equate to more streamline experience for us testers. Well I'm off to work on my score, but if anyone needs an invite, let me know or go to INFLUENSTER and signup yourself!  ^_~

NOTD for the week of 9/9

If you could see the drafts I have in here you would think, 'Hey girl, I know you're busy but you type a lot and people want to read these. I'm not worried though, I know you want to make them the thorough and informative. I cannot wait to see what you show me.' I can see a cute Ryan Gossling photo to put that on, lol.

Here is my week in nails!

Monday

Sinful Color - Cream Pink, Color Club - Lava Lamp, Zoya - Phoebe & Zoya - Mitzi

I have been in an 80's mood lately and this takes the cake. Funky angles and fun colors, that is what it is all about!

Tuesday

China Glaze - Stone Cold, Zoya - Phoebe & Zoya - Mitzi

Not so 80's but just as funky, Stone Cold is one of my new loves!

Wednesday

Nails: Deborah Lippman - Footloose & Lips: OCC Lip Tar - NSFW

I snagged this OCC Lip Tar while getting some retail therapy this weekend and I am HOOKED! This really is the perfect shade of red for my skin tone, and it matches my hair too! I was in a red mood this day.

Thursday

Orly - Buried Alive

Did you know that Thursday was National Chocolate Day? Yum! I walk into work and there was Pocky and other chocolate goodies to munch on, it was a good day.

Friday

Zoya - Mitzi & Funky Fingers - Sand and Stilettos

I fought with myself on this one, I like it but I am not in love. Getting ready for work I was hoping for more sun to get the full effect of the holographic, but I was welcomed by clouds and rain for a few hours. Gotta love Florida weather. This was a great pick me up to the dreary day it turned out to be.

This week I used the CRAP out of my Zoya Mitzi & Phoebe. I have had them for over a year now and I really enjoy them, but sometimes it is hard to work in a neon, and a matte neon at that. 

These are always posted to my twitter, instagram, and tumbr first. I think it is nice to see them all together like this though. Makes me feel somewhat accomplished about taking the time to get it all done and have something cute for work.

These weekly posts make the week go by fast, even if I am not getting reviews out. It makes me feel like I am getting something done, and giving you all something to check out. Hope to see you all soon and working on Doctor Who nails as we speak ^_~
