Marc Jacobs Beauty Illuminator

Disclaimer: This post contains affiliate links.

For a third time, Marc Jacobs Beauty has graced my vanity with it’s presence.

This time in the form of an illuminator.

And free.

Even though I won’t be sharing a photo of the product on me, or any swatches quite just yet. I have worn it. What I like most about it is how smoothly it blends into my skin.

Seriously smooth.

Like butter.

I wrote a review on the Sephora website, where I mention wanting them to come out with a warmer shade. That’s more of a preference thing, but if they do, I’ll be AWESOME!

Also, I’m starting to think that I just may have to try that full face highlighter makeup challenge. Thoughts?

Tender Romance

Fragrance samples are far from hard to come by, but that’s not so much the case when it comes to finding scents that you’ll actually wear.

Personally, I prefer light airy smells. Faint florals or hints of citrus. Even better when the notes gently elicit the happiest of feelings.

When I found out about the Ralph Lauren box free through Influester, I wasn’t exactly sure that I wanted it. I mean, another perfume sample? Doubt aside, my curiosity got the best of me. And thankfully so!

Ralph Lauren’s Tender Romance perfume is the ideal fragrance for spring. It reminds me of when things start to bloom and merely walking outside inspires hope and romance.

YSL VoxBox Part Deux

Influenster and Yves Saint Laurent teamed up for a second YSL VoxBox. And by some miracle I was selected to receive this one too.

Two YSL VoxBoxes?

Be still, my heart!

YSL VoxBox

I know I say that I love things a lot, but what is there not to love about a box that gives you stuff to try for absolutely free?

And even better when the something free is by Yves Saint Laurent!

Finding out I was getting the YSL VoxBox legit made my day.

The only reservation I had was that a lot of products that say they work with all skin tones, don’t. But since the combined retail value of both products was $107, I figured that they shouldn’t disappoint.

And they did not!

The Touche Eclat Blur Primer gives you skin a little golden shimmer and the Touche Eclat Blur Perfector smoothes away imperfections. At first I was worried that I’d look like I’d done nothing but put some gold glitter and matte cream on my face, but after putting on my foundation the difference was very apparent. My face looked FLAWLESS! I couldn’t get over it. I should have taken pictures, but I didn’t. When I do, I will make sure to share…probably on Instagram.

If it weren’t for the fear of running out, I would wear both of these every second of my life.

Soapbox Gives Hope

Not sure if you noticed, but in my wedding season post, my hair had recently been done professionally. A little snip snip, a few extensions added, I was happy with the results and felt really good.

Usually, if I get extensions I have them sewn in, this time bonding glue was used.
Not a huge deal.

Then, after about two weeks it was time to take the extensions out. This process involved a lot of baby oil. It was one big slippery mess. Here’s where there was a problem, afterwards, my hair was still sticky. I washed it, tried more baby oil, dry shampoo, you name it. Nothing worked, and I was starting to get grossed out by my own hair.

When better to try a new shampoo courtesy of Influenster and SoapBox Soaps?

Maybe washing my hair for a second time also helped, but the shampoo got the remaining stickiness out so my hair was squeaky clean. And the conditioner left my hair soft, especially considering I had just washed my hair twice.

Soapbox Argan Oil Shampoo helped rescue my hair from the scary bonding glue monster.

Soapbox gave me hope for my hair and after doing a little homework, I learned about the mission of the company and my heart smiled. They “use soap to improve the world”.

For under $5 at Target (because you know you’re going to be going on a run there soon anyways), you can give the world a little hope and look good while doing it!

Vitality VoxBox

I got my second VoxBox!

I have admit that I was not as excited about the contents of the Vitality VoxBox as I was for my first VoxBox. BUT, the Softlips Cube alone makes up for that. Plus, I was starting to run low on Playtex, so honestly I can’t complain.

Even though I didn’t like the Vitality VoxBox quite as much as the Spring Fling VoxBox, that’s not to say that I didn’t like it.

Burn cream is something practical that I didn’t already own and was extremely happy to have gotten when I burnt myself on hot glue.

Energy gummies are the perfect solution to those Mondays when you just can’t even.

I already knew I liked Pure Leaf tea, but it was nice to get to try a flavor other than what I typically drink.

And, I mean, Elizabeth Arden New York in a free Influenster VoxBox?! Did not see that one coming and I love it!

spring fling voxbox

I joined Influenster not too long ago, and recently got my first VoxBox. I am always saying that I like to try new things, and VoxBox allows me to do just that + share my opinion on the products I try.
