Impress Manicure Giveaway

 You could win this Impress Press-On Manicure nail kit in Over the Moon!  Check out my review on them here.  I recieved this free in my Influenster Holiday Vox Box but ended up buying my own in the color Control Freak because I prefer more plain nails rather than patterned ones.  However, I figured one of you may like it! :)  Feel free to enter by doing one or all of the activities down below.

To enter, just leave a comment down below telling me your favorite nail polish color.  

The only requirement is that you're following this blog.  Check back in 2 weeks to see if you've won! :)

Impress Press-On Manicure Review

In my Influenster Holiday VoxBox I recieved the Impress Press-On Manicure in Over the Moon (the patterned design)  However, the design wasn't my style so I went out and bought my own kit in the pink color called Controlled Freak.  The nails were $5.99 and I had a $1 off coupon, so my total came to $4.99 without tax.  I received my coupon in my Influenster box, however, there was a pad of coupons on the display.

The packaging is super cute and looks like a nail polish.  Once you open the package it contains the nails as well as an alcohol prep pad.

I pushed back my cuticles and wiped my nails with the prep pad.  The I got ready to size my the fake nails to my nails.  This was the hard part.  I have very small nail beds and they are more circle shaped rather than square shaped like the nails.

The best part about these nails are that they're mess free!  No glue, no mess!  All you have to do is pull the sticker off and you're all set.

The plastic part is what you pull off and then the nail is all set and ready to go on your own nail!

The nail was fully covered in a glue which was applied in a grid design.

Finally I applied the nails!  They were super easy to apply and I followed the directions which recommended for the thumb nails to be applied last.

My Overall Thoughts:

I was impressed with these nails!  They were mess free, a beautiful color, and the length was really nice, not too long or too short and there was no drying time.  The only thing is that they didn't fit my nail beds correctly so they looked fake at times.  However everything else was perfect.  I would recommend these, but I would check the display in your store and see if they have a nail sizing chart.  The one in my Walgreens did, but I didn't follow it because all the sizes are included in the package. These would be best for people with more square nail beds.

I left these on for a few days and they lasted while I showered, typed, drove and washed dishes.  Within 4 days I removed them but I'm pretty sure they would've stayed a whole week!

If you've tried these out let me know.  Also be sure to check out my giveaway for the Over the Moon pattern here!

X Out Acne Wash-In Treatment Review

In my Influenster Holiday Vox Box I recieved the X OUT Wash-In Treatment.  I loved it!  The smell is one of the first things that I loved.  It makes me feel like my skin not only is getting clean, but smelling great!  I would describe it as a clean, fresh, powdery and almost medicinal scent.  However, it's not too overpowering.

What's great about this treatment is that it's 3 products in 1.  You can use it as a wash, spot treatment, or mask.  I used it as a mask and loved it.  It's a thick formula that you can thin out with water and exfoliates your face.  I loved how it has menthol so it creates a cooling effect once you let it sit as a mask.

Here's more on my thoughts about the product:

Influenster - Cosmo Vox Box: Initial Thoughts

I signed up for Influenster a few weeks about when I heard about it on Twitter.  I LOVE the company and what they do!  They send you FREE, yes you heard me right... FREE full size products monthly to test out based on your lifestyle.  You determine which boxes you are eligible for by unlocking badges on their website some examples are: Beauty, Natural, Health-Nut etc. You're not guaranteed to get a box every month because it depends on your lifestyle, so sometimes you many not meet the requirements.

I was so excited when I found out I was receiving the Cosmo VoxBox!  Here are my initial thoughts on the products and the video below shows you how everything was packaged and my initial thoughts so far! :)

Proactiv 3 Step System

I tried the Proactiv back when I was in middle school and I found that it did nothing for me.  I'm excited to try it again though because my acne is not as severe as it was then and I think it could help me with the blemishes I get once in a while.

VitaBath Sulfate and Paraben Free Body Wash in Cupcake Couture

Dreamy Pink Frosting

This body wash smells heavenly.  It smells just like vanilla frosting!  I'm so excited to use it because I'll smell like a yummy cupcake!

Gillette Venus Pro Skin Moisture Rich

I've always been a fan of Venus razors and they're the only ones that I use.  I'm so excited to try this one out because it includes the Shave Gel Bars on the razor!
