New batch of reviews coming up!

Hello again, friends!  I have been selected for another Influenster VoxBox and can't wait to see & share what is inside!  It's set to arrive this upcoming week, so stay tuned for that!

I will be getting ready to move at the end of the month, so this year has been really fun as I am getting creative with items from my pantry.  For those of you who don't know, I am a couponer!  I have been able to save hundreds of dollars over the past couple of years by couponing, and it has changed a lot about our family's lifestyle.  (Never again will I pay full price for shampoo or deodorant!)  :)

I had several fun finds last year that perhaps I will talk more about in an upcoming blog post, and I have been learning more about fun recipes to make using what I have on hand, however random these items are.  Let me know in the comments below if you're interested in couponing tips, recipes/meal planning ideas, or anything like that... I'd love to share!

Until next time,

xo, Mrs. "Bee"

Influenster: Moda Voxbox Review

My latest Voxbox from Influenster was the Moda Voxbox!  It included lots of freebies for testing purposes (as always!) and this one certainly did not disappoint.  So much awesome in one pink box!  This one had lots of health and beauty items, which were really fun to sample.  See the list, below!



Resource Spring Water

100% natural spring water, this was delicious and completely refreshing.  Great to grab on the go or enjoy at home.  It has electrolytes included, so it's perfect for refreshing with after a workout (or mid-shopping trip over the holidays!).  See my review post of this yummy water, here.



Swiss Miss Simply Cocoa

I love hot cocoa, and with the winter upon us, you'd better believe I enjoyed this right away.  It's easy to heat up in the microwave with a bit of milk, and this stuff is delicious.  No lie.  Swiss Miss makes the best cocoa!  I just love that this one is made with the simplest of ingredients - sugar, cocoa, nonfat milk, salt, and natural flavor.  That's it!


Hair Food Moisture Mask

Clairol makes the best bath/shower products, and I completely adore them for the scent combinations they come up with!  I loved the herbal essences body wash when it came out just for the smells, and this is incredible!  This Hair Food mask has honey and apricot oil to make your hair super smooth and refreshed, and it totally worked.  Can't wait to restock at Target!


Moisture Renew Lipstick

This is from Rimmel and has such a fun case!  For those of you who don't know - I love purple.  Of course, there's not purple lipstick inside, that would be crazy, but it makes it easy to find in my purse.  :)  This shade actually worked for me, which surprised me!  It is moisturizing (as advertised) and felt great.  I don't normally opt for lipstick, since I'm normally a balm/chapstick kind of girl, but I was pleasantly surprised here!


Moisture Renew Lip Liner

In line with the lipstick above, this lip liner from Rimmel goes along with the lipstick to keep colors from feathering, so you apply before the lipstick.  I have never been a fan of lip liner, but I still wanted to try this out.  It did help and worked like a charm!  Helped everything stay in place as it should.


ScandalEyes Rockin' Curves Mascara

As mentioned in a previous Voxbox review, I love mascara!  This mascara has this crazy looking wand which threw me off at first, but ended up being great!  The thick part at the bottom helps to thicken and vamp up my longer outer lashes, while the curved and shorter end made the inner lashes perfectly covered and not clumped.  Love this stuff!


Puffs Softpack Tissues

I love this new style packaging from Puffs!  The softpack concept is genius.  Boxes in my house always get crushed.  These are great for throwing in a go-bag or in the car, and they're pretty enough that I don't mind them sitting on an end table or my desk!  This is one of several fun prints that goes perfectly with my decor.  Perfect!




Well that's my Voxbox review for the Moda Voxbox!  Thanks again for the freebies, Influenster - you're the best!  I love trying out new products that I might not otherwise have the opportunity to experience.  Be sure to get your own by hopping over and setting up an account to see for yourself!

Influenster Product Review: Resource Water - #refreshwithresource

I was selected for another VoxBox from Influenster and was sent a whole bunch of free goodies (for testing purposes).  This one was for the Moda VoxBox, which included lots of health and beauty products!  

Included was this bottle of Resource Natural Spring Water.  It is super yummy, refreshing, and even has natural electrolytes!  I especially love that the bottle is made using 50% recycled plastic, which makes me happy that they are earth-conscious with their product.  You can even have it delivered to your home by ordering online on their website, which I thought was pretty neat!

I enjoyed my bottle of Resource water on one of my "on-the-go" days, where I had a million things to do (when is that not the case?!) and I opted for a bottle of water instead of my regular go-to - a can of soda.  Simple is better, and the basics are always best.

Thanks for the freebies, Influenster!  #refreshwithresource

Influenster Review: Playtex Sport Fresh Balance Tampons

I am a happy member of the Influenster community, and was sent the Vitality VoxBox (#vitalityvoxbox) with lots of free goodies to try out!  I wrote about all the products I received in this VoxBox in THIS BLOGPOST.  

Of those items I received, one was this full-sized box of Playtex Sport Fresh Balance tampons!  Y'all.... tampons are a necessity, and they're not super glamorous or exciting, but you know a good tampon when you've found one.  (You also know when you've found a bad tampon!  We've all been there, ladies!)
I love Playtex products.  They're reliable, dependable, and won't let you down.  While I'm not the biggest fan of scented feminine products, I can live with this because they make my purse smell nice.  Of course, these are great for staying active and not letting your period slow you down, so you're not exactly carrying a purse, right?!  I can continue my gym workouts and evening runs whenever I want, because I know I won't have any embarrassing "instances" with wearing a pad or tampon that might not hold up its side of the deal.

Go Playtex!  #PlayOn

Influenster Review: Bikini Ready Energy Gummies #BikiniReadyLifestyle

So recently, I blogged about my Vitality VoxBox from Influenster and mentioned these fun little gummies.  I got a sample pack of these caffeine-packed energy gummies from Bikini Ready that are designed to give you a quick boost of energy in a little chewy treat covered in sugar.  Yum!  For those of us that despise taking pills, the gummy was a fun alternative. 

I noticed upon eating my sample gummies that I did get a quick zing of energy, but it was hard to tell by just trying them one time how significant of a difference it made.  Just as drinking a smoothie, eating a banana, or even listing to "Jock Jams" can jazz you up prior to a workout or activity, this seemed to be a similar reaction for me.  

I appreciated the opportunity to try this product that I may have otherwise passed over, but only wish I could have received a larger sample so I could compare over a few days!


Thanks again to Influenster for providing me this box of samples to test out and review... be sure to get your own at www.influenster.com!
