So, I was selected to receive the TLC Vox Box, from Influenster..
****ALL OF THESE ITEMS WERE GIVEN TO ME, COMPLIMENTARY, FOR TESTING/REVIEWING PURPOSES.****
****I WILL BE POSTING MY HONEST OPINIONS OF EACH ITEM!!****
ITEM ONE:
Breyer's Gelato Indulgences .... $4.49-$5.99
follow them on Twitter & like them on Facebook
My local Winn-Dixie only had 3 of the 4 offered flavors, in stock.
Triple Chocolate, Raspberry Cheesecake, & Vanilla Caramel (Tiramisu was not available).
I had a tough time choosing between Raspberry Cheesecake & Vanilla Caramel ;)
Eventually, I decided to start with Vanilla Caramel, & if I liked it, I could always buy the raspberry later!!
My first thought when opening the container, was that it looked very neatly decorated.
It is nice to see manufacturers taking the time to make their product appealing to the eyes.
I smelled it, prior to tasting it (lol), it definitely smelled as great as it looked!!
Now, onto the taste test!!
First bite was refreshing & cool. The flavor kinda reminds me of frozen cool whip (which I prefer to regular ice cream).
The caramel was a great accent to the vanilla base, it added that extra flavor & texture.
I have never eaten gelato before, so I have nothing to compare it to, but it is very sweet & rich. I couldn't eat more than about 5 bites, but that is simply because I am not much of a "sweets" person.
I feel that if you have a huge sweet tooth (or at least a bigger one than I do..), you would enjoy a larger helping, no problem!! :)
All in all.. definitely worth the $5.99 price tag, from my grocery store!!
ITEM TWO:
travel size Puffs Plus Lotion .... $0.49 (per single pack)
follow them on Twitter & like them on Facebook
I have, actually, used Puffs Plus Lotion tissues before, & I love them!!!
I have horrible pollen allergies, & these tissues are so so soft. They don't rub my nose raw, when using them for long periods of time, like other tissues, or paper towels do.
The perfect size of the travel pack fits, conveniently in my purse (unlike the whole box would haha).
Each Pack comes with 10 tissues, not too many, but not too little either.
I would definitely buy them. I have before & will again!! :)
ITEM THREE:
Neosporin: Neo To Go! .... $4.79-$7.50
I have had my eye on this adorable little antiseptic for the longest time!!!
I ALWAYS buy the Neosporin in the tube, but have never ventured onto the spray..
Between my 4 year old, my boyfriend, & myself, someone is always getting hurt!!! lol
I am an Antibacterial queen!!! I add some to every single cut or scrape on my son & myself!!
I'd rather be safe than sorry!! ;)
I can't wait to have to use this bad boy (which will probably be sooner than later.........)
Literally FIVE minutes later, my son fell on the sidewalk at school!!! haha.. (not funny that he fell, funny that I was right lol.. come on, I'm not that mean!!) ;)
I used it on him once & now, EVERY SINGLE TIME he gets ANY kind of "boo boo", he comes running... "Mommy, you need to put Neso-sporin on it!!!" LOL!!!
I LOVE my Neosporin spray!!! It is SO much easier to deal with when we are out, just spray & add a bandaid.. No rubbing necessary. It is in my purse, for immediate access, when Ty falls, like he always does. When I run out I will be FORCED to go buy a couple more!!! DEFINITELY worth the price!!!
ITEM FOUR:
Ivory Original Bar Soap .... $3.99 (10 pack)
follow them on Twitter & like them on Facebook
I haven't used bar soap in the LONGEST time!!!
I am more of a liquid soap kinda gal (Nutrium to be exact) :)
I am not too crazy about the smell of this soap.. I will probably be using it to shave with for my review......
In all honesty, I am not too thrilled with this soap.. Now, this is JUST MY opinion!!! It is different for everyone!!! I don't know if I have been spoiled by liquid body wash & soap for my shower, OR if I am just weirded out by soap that isn't antibacterial for washing hands, but I just can't get into using bar soap..The smell is not the greatest either (not that it "stinks") I just prefer a scent (usually Cherry Blossom or Pomegranate (or a mixture of both lol)).. Also, it doesn't moisturize my skin very well.. I would not purchase this on my own, but if you prefer bar soap then you can try for yourself, it is fairly priced & it lasts quite a while.
ITEM FIVE:
Avon Anew Reversalist Renewal Express .... $30
follow them on Twitter & like them on Facebook
WOW.. try saying THAT 10 times fast!!! (if you follow my Instagram, this joke is probably getting old :) lol)
Seeing as how I am only a few months away from a ripe age of 25, I don't really need this product, but I will still use it.. even if only for moisturization!! :)
Well, as I originally hypothesized, there is no noticable difference in my, relatively young, firm skin.. lol
But I know that my Mema, who is 63, uses this product & loves it!! :) Hope that helps.
ITEM SIX:
Shell Fuel Rewards Network Card
follow them on Twitter & like them on Facebook
Who DOESN'T love to save money on gas?!?!?!?!?!
I already registered my card & can't wait to save that complimentary $0.25 per gallon!!!
It says on your second fill up, so it will be a little while before I can use it, seeing as how we JUST filled up the other day ;)
I have not purchased anything towards this card, but I appreciated the discount for signing up. I feel like this is very similar to the Winn-Dixie rewards card, but I like the fact that I know I have the freedom to use it elsewhere.
All in all, I was EXTREMELY pleased with the items in this VoxBox!!!
Again, ALL products were given to me, complimentary, by Influenster, for testing purposes!! :)
If you read his WHOLE post, I appreciate you!!! ;)
