Influenster Summer Beauty VoxBox 2012

So, it's been several weeks and I've had the pleasure to thoroughly enjoy the Influenster Summer Beauty VoxBox 2012.  My box included several brands I was familiar with and a few new brands that I was excited to try.  I've taken my time to use and re-use everything in my box and decided to share my experience with you.  The box included:  Hawaiian Tropic Silk Hydration Lotion Sunscreen SPF 30, Tampax and Always Radiant Collection, Quaker Soft Baked Bar in Banana Nut Bread, Sally Hansen Magnetic Nail Color and lastly Sally Hansen Nails and Cuticles Hand Creme. 

My absolute favs were the Sally Hansen Magnetic Nail Color and the Quaker Soft Baked Bar, yummy.  The nail color did in fact create a 3-D effect on my nails.  It was cute and easy to apply.  The polish itself was creamy and the applicator brush was ok. I have a major pet peeve when it comes to watery polish and or a thinly ill-shapen applicator brush. I have noticed the price point varies depending on where you shop so look around. The Quaker Soft Baked Bar was indeed soft and a wonderful post-work out snack. It was extremely filling and the taste was so fresh, it was like homemade treat.  The packaging claims the little square of tastiness is made with real bananas and almonds.  I must admit the flavors were robust, so I'm inclined to believe the said claims. 

As for the Hawaiian Tropic Silk Hydration Lotion Sunscreen SPF 30, I absolutely loved the smell of fresh coconuts infused with vanilla and the rich creamy consistency.  Another bonus, the lotion did not leave a heavy greasy film that I've noticed with similar products, but it left my skin a tad dry.  The Sally Hansen Nails and Cuticles Hand Crème did not perform well.  Out of all of its claims, I couldn't find one that actually delivered for me.  The crème did not leave my hands moisturized through hand washings, it didn't soften my hands, it didn't smooth my cuticles or condition my nails however I did enjoy the light citrus scent.

Overall, I thoroughly enjoyed the VoxBox and had a pleasure trying all the products. Also, to receive your very own box please visit Influenster.com and please follow them on Twitter and Instagram @Influenster.
