~Influenster~ Sweetheart Vox Box 2013 First Impressions

Here we go again! I love Influenster and am so happy that I was lucky enough to qualify for another program!  This time, I received the Sweetheart Voxbox and it is LOADED with some great products.  I'll do a quick run-through now, and add individual reviews for each product sometime over the next week or so.

For those that aren't familiar, Influenster is a website to spread the word about products we love, answer questions,  as well as test and review some pretty awesome products. 

This is what I saw when I opened the Sweetheart Voxbox!

I am so excited to get to try out all of this great stuff, but first, here's a little bit more information about each product I'd like to share with you. 

Skinnygirl Daily On-The-Go Bars

With only 180 calories per bar, you can enjoy Skinnygirl Daily On-The-Go bars guilt free. The bars are natural, kosher, and high in fiber. All bars now have MORE protein and MORE fiber, LESS sugar and FEWER carbs! These bars are the perfect indulgent treat for individuals looking to maintain a healthy lifestyle. 

Retail Price: $9.99 per box of 5 bars  

I received the flavor Coco-Nut with Peanut Butter bar, but they also come in Banana Oatmeal Dark Chocolate, Dark Chocolate Multi-Grain Pretzel, and Greek Yogurt Blueberry Crisp.

Secret Clinical Strength Stress Response

Did you know there are three causes of sweat - heat, movement and stress? Stress sweat comes from a different gland, so it actually smells the worst. Secret Clinical Strength Stress Response in Serene Citrus is uniquely formulated to protect you from all three causes of sweat, especially stress sweat. It's proven 4x more effective at protecting against stress-induced underarm wetness than the wetness protection required of an ordinary antiperspirant.

Retail Price: $7.99 - $9.99

Rock a sexy beach look even on those days you're not at the beach! Infused with natural Dead Sea salt and sea kelp, Beach Babe helps create voluminous texturized and wind-swept waves.

Olay Fresh Effects {Va-Va-Vivid} Powered Contour Cleansing System

A vibrating, tri-tip facial cleansing brush that packs some punch! This

battery-powered device reaches deep into contours, liberating skin

from dirt, oil, and makeup in hard-to-reach places for a clean that

is 400% better than basic cleansing.

~Influenster~ Palmolive® Fresh Infusions™ Review

 As I've mentioned, I recently got the chance to try Palmolive Fresh Infusions thanks to Palmolive and Influenster. I shared my first impressions, now it's time for my review!

Palmolive's new line, Fresh Infusions. 

~Ginger White Tea ~ Lime Basil ~ Lemon Thyme~

The scents of all three are wonderful! It was hard to pick a favorite, but  Lemon Thyme came in 1st place, with Lime Basil as a close second. The Ginger White Tea is nice as well, but I always lean towards citrus when it comes to cleaning products because it reminds me of when I was a kid in my grandma's kitchen. 

I also let my friend Joey join in the fun and pick one to keep for himself, and shared the coupons with friends and family as well.  He chose the Ginger White Tea

However, as nice as a product smells, you never know how well it works until you put it to the test... So that's exactly what I did. 

Armed with my weapons of choice, I set out to conquer the mountain of dirty dishes lurking in our sink.

This is about two and a half days worth of dirty dishes at our house. They were not presoaked, and most of them were not even rinsed clean. In short, my living nightmare. 

 A short while later, the battle was done, and our entire silverware draw, as well as a large portion of our dishes are squeeky clean! No greasy pots and pans, and no stuck on food or residue. It was very gentle on my hands. It didn't tear them up nearly as bad as my usual brand does.

 I am very happy with the way Palmolive Fresh Infusions suds up. Just a little bit of dish soap turns into tons of bubbles with super cleaning power. I also liked that the liquid itself is thicker than what I expected. Runny dish liquid usually rinses off too easily so I end up having to use more to get the kind of clean dishes I prefer. Not the case at all with Fresh Infusions!

This shows exactly how much I used to wash all of those dishes.  Also, I should add that I love the bottle design! Not only does it look great on the counter, it's also great for soapy slippery hands. I didn't have any problem at all when it came time to add a little more dish soap to the sponge. Not like most of the other bottles I see all the time that are awkwardly shaped so I end up dropping them.

I highly recommend Palmolive Fresh Infusions to anyone that's looking for more out of their dish soap! I will definitely buy this again in the future

Interested in infusing your kitchen with phosphate free freshness as well? Palmolive Fresh Infusions are available at Walmart for around $2.99.

~Influenster~ Palmolive® Fresh Infusions™ First Impressions

So I am so excited to be one of the lucky members of Influenster that was selected to receive and test out the new Palmolive Fresh Infusions dish soap! 

Some of you may remember me mentioning Influenster before, but for those that aren't familiar, Influenster is a website to review products, answer questions and spread the word about products we love, as well as test products. 

This is what I saw when I opened my box!

First off, I love the new design  and the bottle shape. The graphics are classy and stand out well on the shelf at stores. It's something I definitely would rather have sitting out in my kitchen than a clunky, hard to handle, bottle that most other dish soap comes in. The colors are bright and I like that they are naturally inspired.

The new Palmolive comes in three distinct kinds.

Lemon Thyme

Lime Basil

Ginger White Tea

Each one of them smell fresh and clean, and I really liked all of them, but my favorite was definitely Lemon Thyme. 

If you're interested in infusing your kitchen with freshness as well, these are available at Walmart for around $2.99. 

Stay tuned for my full review coming soon! :)
