Montagne Jeunesse Passion Peel Off Face Masque Review

Another one of the items I received in my Holiday VoxBox from Influenter was a Montagne Jeunesse Passion Peel Off Face Masque. Although I don't have problematic skin, I love doing face masks and of course trying new ones out. As I said in my original blog for the VoxBox, I did a search for local retailers and didn't find anyone. Shortly after, I ended up finding some at my local Ulta, so I thought that was cool to be able to go and get some if I liked it. I have tried this and here is my full review.Before I get into the review and more specifics, let me show you some pictures:I received the Passion Peel Off Face Masque in Pulped PomegranateFairly simple instructionsRight after I put it onThe consistency was a little "tacky" and was see thru...

December 2011 Giveaway!!

I have decided that I will be giving away the items that I don't need from every box that I get to you guys. A lot of the samples I receive are things that I might already have or something I just know I wouldn't use, so that works out great for you guys!For December, I will actually have 2 giveaways. As you know from my MyGlam posts, they forgot my mascara. They told me they were going to send it, then told me they didn't have any left and were giving me a refund. A week later, I get a mascara AND an extra Sin Eye Shadow in the mail. Since I already have Sin in my Naked Palette and my wonderful friend Vicki sent me a full size of the Tarte Mascara, I don't need either.For the first winner, you will receive:Sliced Almond Brittle on Bittersweet...

Eco-Emi December 2011

Eco-Emi is a sample box that is more on the "green/vegan" side and doesn't include all beauty. I think most of the beauty I have ever gotten is from the same company (so they must be doing really good!). I don't live a green or vegan lifestyle (just being completely honest) so the contents of most boxes don't really appeal or apply to me and to be completely honest, I have only found one thing that I have really enjoyed out of the 10 months I have been subscribed.Let us show you what is worth spending your hard earned money on! For only $15.00 a month we will mail you a minimum of five samples to your door wrapped in a chic earth friendly packaging. You will have the luxury of trying out the green world in the comfort of your own home.You typically...

Foodzie "2011 Stocking Stuffer Favorites" Tasting Box

Foodzie is a little different from your normal monthly box because it's obviously about food. I was a little hesitant to sign up for this box because I am extremely picky when it comes to food, but on the other hand, I wanted to try new thing. I loved this concept and decided to try it out.Each month, you will find a variety of Tasting Experiences carefully selected by the Foodzie team. Choose one that matches your taste or let us pick one for you.What I like about this box is that around the 1st of the month, they will email you with a link to that months "taste boxes" and you can choose the box you would like to receive. If you would like more of a surprise, you can ignore the emails and they will send you a random one. This really works...

Birchbox December 2011

I signed up for BirchBox in February of 2011 and I think they have lost a lot of their meaning and what they run for. The "sample" sizes have become smaller and smaller and some are even "O_o" worthy. However, I am afraid to unsubscribe because I know that the moment I do, everyone will get a full palette or something amazing and I will kick myself.Don't get me wrong, I do find a lot of great things in BB's but sometimes I feel like their samples are lacking because of the amount of people they have subscribed.But that's not what this post is about, this is for my December 2011 box! Here is what was inside:Lets go through each individual item:Eboost Daily Health Booster - $1.40Last I thought, this was a beauty box. Yeah, "health" is a part...
