Influenster Brand Challenge Prizes!
Hey everyone, I posted a video on what I got from Kiss Nails and NYC (New York Color) as part of the brand challenge I completed on Influenster.com. I know its a bit late but I wanted to show my gratitude to these companies and show you guys how Influenster works so I wanted to post it any way. I think the video is pretty self explanatory, but I'll list out what I received.
- 1 Eyeliner from NYC-around $3-4
- 1 Kiss Nail Dress- around $8
- 1 Broadway Nails ImPRESS Press On Manicure kit in the color "Call My Agent"- $8-9
I'm really grateful that I was able to win these and eventually test them out! Basically what I had to do was complete certain tasks that Influenster set in order to be entered to win these. That included thing like making a video or blog review, tweeting, and instagramming. If anyone would like to join I still have invites and I'd be happy to invite you! Just leave a comment or message me! I also just want to let you know I updated the links on my YouTube channel page. You can now check me out on Twitter and Instagram! Yay! That's all for now guys!
Maybelline Summer '13 Color Tattoo Review!
Hey everyone, I already have a video on my YouTube channel that is linked down below so please check that out! I just wanted to post some photos and add a little bit about these products here as well. Please note that I bought these myself and my opinion is completely honest and my own! I have to say I really love these Color Tattoos, they have a pretty good staying power and are just beautiful colors. I got the colors Sandy Shores, Precious Pearl, and Waves of White.
Sandy Shores is a really pretty yellow that has a green sheen to it when the light hits it. Precious Pearl is more a creamy neutral white and is very shimmery. Waves of White has a blueish hint to it when the light hits it and it is a beautiful white. I tested these out without a primer but I find they work a lot better with a primer so keep that in mind. In the video I was wearing Sandy Shores and I really liked it a lot, it lasted all day and it was just a beautiful color. I found that they stayed put for the majority of the day which is saying a lot for having no primer and it being a hot day. I found these at my local Walmart for $6.99 each but I have also seen them at Walgreens.
Pros:

Pros:
- Good pigmentation
- Long lasting
- Colors change in light
- Good amount of product (a little goes a long way)
- Can be used as a base-multiple uses
Cons:
- Sticky texture (might be a con for some)
Overal grade: A

Goody Ouchless Ribbon Elastics Review!
Hey everyone! I wanted to make a short post on the Goody Ouchless Ribbon Elastics I received from Influenster. Influenster sent these to me for free so that I could test these out and review them. As always you will only get my honest opinion. If I don't like something I'll tell you. Anyway, enough of that, onto the review! I've probably mentioned this before but I love ribbon elastics and I especially loved these! I love the colors and the fact that they were able to keep my thick hair up. I was also able to match it up with my pink Goody headband (that I've had for awhile now :)) which made a nice combination. These range from $3.99-$4.99 depending on where you live. I've seen these in Walgreens, Target, and Walmart so they shouldn't be too hard to find. I really liked these and I'm glad I got these because these are much better than a regular elastic. Please check out my video down below to see a full review!

SinfulShine with Gel Tech Review!
Hey everyone! This is my review on the SinfulShine with Gel Tech nail polish by Sinful Colors. The color I received is Nouveau Purple and can be found exclusively at Walgreens for $2.99! This polish has an amazing shine to it and I was so glad I was able to test it out! I already have a video up talking about this product but I thought I'd make a post as well. I have to say that I didn't really like this color when I first got it.
Everyone else seemed to be getting brighter colors that were more appropriate for summer and I kind of felt left out. The more I wore it I found that I actually really like this color and I think it'll be great for fall too! The darkness of this polish was intimidating at first but don't let that stop you from trying it because its really nice. I really glad I got this in my Sunkissed Vox Box! Also I tried this out for a week so the week old nails in my video weren't touched at all and the polish really lasted well.
Pros
- Shiny!!!!
- Long-lasting
- In-expensive
- Doesn't chip easily
- Good variety of colors
Cons
- None!
Final Grade: A+
I recieved this product complementary from Influenster for testing purposes but my opinions are my own. :)

Sunkissed Vox Box Unboxing!!!
Hey everyone! I'm so excited to say that I finally got my Sunkissed VoxBox from Influenster! Everything I received was complimentary from Influenster for testing purposes but be assured that you will always get my honest opinion no matter what. If you want to learn more about Influenster and their amazing program go ahead and check out my post on it to learn more.
Anyway, enough of that, let's get on to what I got! I received four products to try out which include a pair of Dr. Scholl's For Her Insoles , a Sinful Colors SinfulShine with Gel Tech nailpolish in Nouveau Purple, a BB Cream from Olay, and five ribbon hair ties from Goody. Everyone who was excepted in the program got the same items except the color of nail polish varied. Overall the price of this box was about $30.96 which is really amazing and very generous of Influenster! Below are some photos and my unboxing video. I will definitely be reviewing these soon so look out for those!

What I've Been Up to!
Hey everyone! I know its been awhile so I just wanted to make a post about what I've been doing and whats to come! I've been out of school for awhile now and I've been a kind of busy with a couple of things lately. I have some pre-recorded videos that will be posted on my YouTube channel soon, so look out for those, as well as a Vox Box from Influenster that will hopefully be coming sometime soon. I know some other YouTubers have already gotten theirs but I'm restraining myself from watching them because I really want to be surprised. I will be getting the Sunkissed Vox Box so I will definitely be doing a review on that! I just wanted to do a little update and I hope you guys are looking forward to this as much as I am!
