I received this product complimentary to test through Influenster’s VoxBox program and surprisingly  I am loving these! I can never manage to grow my nails and these are the perfect solution. It makes it look like I have long nails in minuets. They were really easy to use match the size and peel off the backing and press them on. I would recommend going for a size sightly smaller rather than slightly bigger if it's not a perfect match one was a bit bigger and looked and felt funny. you get 24 nails so it should be easy to find the right match. I also would recommend when sticking them down to slide along with the edge of the nail till you hit the cuticle then press down to get the perfect fit. I found them a bit rough on the ends so when I was done applying them I filed them a bit and added a top coat to the end to smooth them out. 

One thing I was really liking was the design. They had a cute animal print design with a glitter background, and glitter is so hard to remove but with these all you have to do is peel them off. There are lots of cute designs which is a plus for a nail inept like myself. 

I found they only lasted a few days. As a cake decorator I work with my hands a lot, and find myself with my hands in water doing dishes, so I think that played a big part in the longevity of the manicure. These would be great for short term use like a night out or the weekend. For the price it's a great deal $5.99- $7.99 considering a full set of acrylic nails at the salon can run $40-$50. 


I will defiantly be trying these again the next time I'm in the mood for long nails and a cute and easy manicure.

Description from NewYorkColor.com

 I have been using was Nude York City # 582, which I received complementary to test  through Infuenster's Voxbox program. It's a nice sheer nude, perfect to wear alone or over lipstick.

PROS-

• I liked the multi-toned skimmer it has, it's very fine and subtle.  
• It's a great sheer nude color
• Nicely moisturizing  
• it has a nice sweet sugary sent. 
• the applicator is flexible at the end which makes it easier to apply 

CONS

• my only con was it was slightly sticky. It wasn't too bad but could be better, on a scale of 1- 10 1 being the stickiest i would give it a 7 for stickiness.

Over all I think that for the inexpensive price its a good lip gloss. I'm interested in trying some of the brighter colors to see how pigmented they are.

Holiday VoxBox From Influenster

I wanted to share with you mu Holiday VoxBox from Influenster.com. What is a VoxBox? It is a box of free full sized products sent from Influenster.com. You sign up and fill out some surveys. By filling out the surveys you earn badges and based on what badges and how many you have Influenster will send all sorts of products to try out and review and share you experience with friends family and your social networks. They can be anything from health and beauty products, to food and snacks.

What I have tried so far:

• Larabar, Cherry Pie:oh it was so scrumptious!  The bar was nice and moist and had a soft texture. The cherry flavor was a nice fresh dark cherry flavor, like you just bit into a fresh cherry. I'll be putting that coupon to use to get some more. they would be a perfect breakfast snack for work.
• Garden Botanika Heart Fragrance: I really like the smell. It was a light floral/slightly citric sent. It was not over powering at all. if your someone who likes Clinique's Happy Heart you'll love this perfume. 
• Mentos Pure Fresh Gum: I'm not usually a gum chewer, but these were nicely minty, not to strong. and the gum stayed soft and chewy for a long while and kept it's flavor too.
