Free Products from Influenster

Do you like to get free stuff??  I know I do and that is exactly what I got after signing up for an influenster account.  What is Influenster you ask?  Well it is a website that allows people to learn about and review various products. 

Straight from the influenster website --> www.influenster.com

"Influenster is a free-to-join community of invited trendsetters who live to give opinions of products and experiences. Influenster creates links between brands and members to reward participation and influence future products."

The more you are involved in the site and share your opinion, reviews, answer surveys, etc the more chances you have to get a voxbox in the mail.  A VoxBox is a box full of various products that are geared towards your interests and demographics.  You may not always be chosen for a VoxBox, but the more involved you are the more chances you have.  

I signed up for Influenster in the fall and I was excited to receive an email saying a VoxBox was on its way to my doorstep!!  I was chosen to receive the Holiday VoxBox and couldn't wait to see what would be inside.  

Here is what came in my Holiday VoxBox!!


Yes these were full size items!!  There are many other subscription boxes out there that you can purchase and sign up for but no these were FREE FULL SIZE!!  Woo hoo I love Influenster :)

So here are all the items in my box:

  • Quaker Real Medleys Oatmel in Cherry Pistachio Flavor


 I like oatmeal especially since its a yummy quick and easy breakfast and this little cup is perfect for oatmeal on the go.  No need to carry a bowl with you, you can it it right out of the cup.  Just add water, microwave and go.  I love that it came in a different flavor than your average oatmeal flavors like cinnamon.  This was the perfect blend of fruit and nuts and gets a thumbs up from me :)  This retails for $1.79 a cup. 


  • NYC New York Color Liquid Lipshine 

So I love lip glosses and usually have a few hanging out in my purse.  Lipgloss is an easy way to jazz up your lips and you can have fun with the color, tint, sparkle, soo manu possibilities.  The NYC Liquid Lipshine I got was the Nude York City Shade and its a nude shade with a hint of sheen.  I really enjoy this product, it offers the perfect amount of gloss and color without being over the top.  The applicator actually bends which I thought was great and allows for an even better application.  This lipshine was not sticky at all which was a huge plus, I hate when you put lipgloss on and then get it all over your fingers and its pretty much stuck there unless you scrub your hands clean.  This product has already made its way into my purse for handy use :) This product retails for $2.49

  • Kiss Nail Dress



I was pretty excited for this product because I have been enjoying doing an accent nail when doing my nails and thought these would be a perfect accent!! See I already tried them out :) 

These were super easy to use just peel stick and file and voila! Perfectly polished nails.  Such a fun way to spice up your nails and this brand offers a lot of varieties.  The box says it will last for 10 days and so far I am on day 4 and they are going strong!!!  They are really smooth and shiny, the top coat is built into it which is a plus.  I also received a lot of compliments on these while at work this past week.  People were like oh let me see your nails, wow those are cute where did you get them, etc!!  This retails for $6.99
  • EBOOST effervescent powder: Pink Lemonade Flavor 
This product claims to boost your mood, focus, and immunity with natural ingredients and no crash.  Just add it to water and get your boost.  It comes in four different flavors, I got the pink lemonade.  I am not a huge lemonade fan in general but I gave this a try.  I poured a sprinkle in my water to taste it and unfortunately I was not a big fan of it.  I did not notice a difference in my mood or focus but I did try it in the morning and only poured a small amount.  I guess when I really need an energy boost maybe I will save it and see if it makes a difference :)  This retails for $28 for a box of 20
  • Goody QuikStyle Brush
I was interested to open this product and see what it was because I was like "hey what are those towel like bristles in this brush?"  This brush has absorbent microfiber bristles that remove up to 30% of water as you style.  Like a towel and brush in one.  So far I really like this brush, I have pretty thick hair and it takes forever to dry...I can go to bed with wet hair and wake up with hair that is still damp so I can use all the help I can get when it comes to drying my hair.  I have been using this brush for the past few days and have enjoyed it so far :)  and think it does a good job of absorbing the water.  I wonder how long the microfiber bristles will last though.  This retails for $11.99

  • Sole Society:  Included in my Holiday VoxBox was a card for $25 off my first purchase from Sole Society which is a site with the latest trends in footwear.  Shoes on this site start at 49 meaning with this coupon code I will get half off a pair of shoes :)  I am excited to check out what they have and pick out a new pair.  
My Box:
-Oatmeal $1.79
-Lipshine $2.49
-Nail Dress $6.99
-EBOOST $1.40
-Brush $11.99
TOTAL = 24.66

Almost $25 worth of FREE products!!!  That is crazy woo hoo you go Influenster.  I was really happy with my Holiday VoxBox, all of the products (except the EBOOST) are products I give two thumbs up, will use, and would buy more of.    

I am excited to see what will come in the next VoxBox I get :)
