NYC New York Color Big Bold Plumping and Shine Lip Gloss

So I got my Varsity VoxBox from Influenster a little bit ago.  (You can see everything I got here).  Sadly, I've bee a little bit behind, so I'm just now putting up the reviews!  This post is picture heavy.

Mail Monday, My 100th Post, and a Giveaway!

So this was another week with not too much mail!  I got my Influenster Varsity VoxBox and the November Cosmo.  I got a free subscription through Mercury Magazines a while ago.  I don't really read it, but there were quite a few nice pages I used to make envelopes!

This week, in celebration of the 3rd Mail Monday, the beginning of 5 Little Grins, and this being my 100th post, I'm going to be giving away some Magazine envelopes again!  Last week, Allison won.

Influenster Varsity VoxBox 2013

I got all this for free from Influenster, in exchange for my honest reviews across social media platforms along with engaging with the brand.  I am not being paid to review said items.

Guess what I found in the mail on Tuesday when we were at the house!  (You probably already read the title though, right?)

Please note that I was entirely too excited, thanks to USPS THROWING OUT MY LAST VOXBOX to take nice pictures.  In the individual review posts they will be better.  I pinky promise.

Not Your Mother's {She's a Tease Volumizing Hairspray}

This is the last product I will be reviewing from my Influenster VoxBox on this blog!  To see my original VoxBox post go here!

This was the first product from the brand Not Your Mother's I have used.  I usually go for simple, drugstore brands when buying products like hair gel and hairspray because all I really use them for is when I have dance.  These last few weekends I put the hairspray to the test.  I had 2 performances as well as a dress and tech rehearsal.  My hair didn't move!  Now, I know a bun isn't really a hairstyle that needs volume, so I can't really tell you about that part.  I do know, that it definitely worked for me and everyone else I let borrow it.  Also, we use hairspray on our ribbons (for pointe shoes), to keep them from coming untucked, and it held those as well!  There is only one minor thing I dislike- the smell!  This, however, vanishes quickly so it isn't a big deal for me

Overall I love this hairspray!  I will absolutely be buying this again (as I am already almost out!!)

Sweetheart VoxBox 2013

I just got my Sweetheart VoxBox!  I am so excited.  I will review the products later, but for now here are pictures!

I had never heard of this until I received it in my VoxBox, then I started seeing commercials for it!  To see my review of this product, go here! 

The neon pink heart was a cute touch!

 This smells so good!  I have already started using this and I love it!  After 5 hours of rehearsal it still works!

I ate this pretty much as soon as I opened the box.  To see my review, go here!

NYC Showtime Glitter Eyeliner

I got this in my VoxBox a while ago and it is one of the few things I liked a lot from the VoxBox!

Check out NYC's website- http://newyorkcolor.com/

They say Straight from the city that never sleeps, NYC New York Color offers products with uptown style at down-to-earth prices, from $.99 - $4.99. The energy, style, and color of New York City shines through the wide range of shades, textures and innovative products. NYC always delivers the most on-trend products & shades hot off the runway

 

I have used this a lot already.  Not only is it great for eyeliner, I have been using it as shadow, too.  I just make dots on the outer corner of my eye and blend it in.  I am pleased with the color as well as the glitter distribution.  The only con for me would be that it is a pencil that you do actually have to sharpen.  This creates hassel as well as mess, and lost product.

 

Overall- ****

I would most definetely buy this again!
