Ipsy: Jan. 2013

I felt so strongly about how great this month's Ipsy bag is- so I couldn't resist sharing it! But for the record, the last 4-5 months of Ipsy have all been amazing.

Products included in this month's bag:
1. London Soho New York Concealer brush (full size)
2. Big Sexy Hair- Spray & Play- Volumizing Hairspray (1.5 OZ)
3. Pacifica- Tuscan Blood Orange- Body Butter (2.5 FL OZ)
4. Nailtini nail lacquer- 104 Frappe (.5 fl oz., full size)
5. Josie Maran- Argan Oil (.17 fl. oz.)
See photos below for almost-true sizes. =)

First impressions of all products:
1. Soft, dense brush. Would also work great for applying cream eyeliner.
2. Very generous size, I've heard nice things about this brand and it's VOLUMIZING!
3. This body butter smells perfect, fruity. It's also not thick or as buttery as I expected.
4. Although its great to get a full size, I couldn't see the color at all on my nail AT ALL. This brand applies well though.
5. Smooth, subtle smell. I like how many uses you can use this for.

Bonus: This month's bags super cute inside!

Quickie Review: EBOOST Natural Energy

A quickie review of the Eboost natural energy made with green tea extract in acai pomegranate flavor- in a powder individual serving convenience packet. Pros: -All natural vitamins -The vitamin flavor isn't as overwhelming as you would taste in other vitamins -quick to make -Vitamins: C, D, B-12 -Low calorie -No crash (that I could remember) -Many different citrus flavors -Fizzy Cons: -Strong taste -Water (at least for me) has to be super cold or perfectly warm -Price -Stevia -Flavor could probably still be improved Price: $28 for a box of 20 Rating (1 bad, 10 great): 6 Pro tip: Be sure to drink a large amount of water before pouring powder into water bottle and shaking, otherwise it will start to overflow while it fizzes/mixes. EBOOST website: http://bit.ly/WrjF6M BOOST's Influenster page: http://bit.ly/VQQ87d I received this product complimentary through Influenster.

NatureBox - Healthy Monthly Snacks

NatureBox is another monthly subscription box. However, it is different. Each month, they send you nutritionist approved snacks! This month I received 5 zip-lock type, reclosable bags (as you will each month) with some snacks I never thought could be tasty or as filling as they were. Masa Crisps- These harder chip-like crisps are a nice bite-size. Personally I was less likely to shove a ton in my mouth as they were filling, salty, and crunchy to my liking. They also have flax seeds in them, which is great for you! Dried Pears- These tasty buggers taste fresh, not overpowering and they're FILLING! I especially found the outside skin of these to be an extra special treat. It was almost like I tasted sugar, but nope! Only dried pears here! (They're gone now btw!) Pistachio Power Clusters- Reading the word CLUSTER automatically fills me up, I'm not a huge fan of anything clustered as it can be a lot to eat in what feels like should be a bite-size piece. But, I'd like...

Quickie Review 3D Crest Whitestrips

Today I tried the Crest 3D White Whitestrips Professional Effects Impressions by occurrence: 1) Strips are very sticky, they stick well to pretty-dry teeth. However, I find it weird that they don't cover ALL of your teeth, who wants half-white teeth?? 2) After about 10 minutes of wear (out of 30) I started tasting the nasty gel-like substance they use for the whitening ~ I felt like barfing and I had a bit of a stomach ache. 3) I removed the strips, and my teeth felt smoother than usual. 4) About 4 hours after using {reason I decided to write this post} the strips for the first time, my teeth felt cold and very sensitive. The strips didn't work for me - I discontinued use. Received complimentary of Influenster for testing purposes.
