I am always excited when Influenster sends me a box of beauty samples. Well, I am excited when any one sends me a box of beauty samples. I won't lie. I love trying new beauty products...especially when they are free. This box was chock full of goodies.
imPress Broadway Press on Nails: I am not a fan of press on nails. They make me think of my mom in the 80's. However, since this is a review, I decided to try them out. Well, I put one on my pinky nail. It's basically a thick plastic nail shaped sticker. It felt weird on my nail, so a few minutes later I tried to take it off. And I ripped the top layer of my nail off. It appears as though press on nail technology has not improved.
Secret Outlast Clear Gel Deodorant: I'm already a Secret deodorant user, so I was pretty confident I would love this product. And I do. It lasts all day, just like my regular old white chalk deodorant, but I didn't have to take a mid-morning bathroom break to clean all the hidden deodorant marks on my clothes. Yes, I am incapable of putting on clothes without getting the white deodorant streaks all over them.
Schwarzkopf Professional Osis+ Dust It Texture Powder: This is the second time I have gotten a texture and volume powder in a sample box...and I just don't see it making any difference in my hair.
Tastykake Kandy Bar Kakes in Reese's: Ok, it's not a beauty product and it did not go in the Caboodle. It went into my belly...immediately. And the best part of it is that the Scot hates peanut butter, so I got this all to myself.
NYC Applelicious Glossy Lip Balm: I really really liked this balm. Once I got over the fact that it did not smell or taste like apples, I was able to evaluate it. (But seriously, it's called Applelicious, it should freakin' taste or smell like the name implies). Any way, it's really smooth and moisturizing and I really liked the subtle red color. It's nice for a casual look because it gives a relatively natural color and doesn't have any sparkle or glitter in it.
Disclosure: I was provided this box of products free of charge in exchange for my review. All opinions are 100% mine.
