Boots No. 7 Beautiful Skin Cleansing Balm for Dry Skin
I was actually really impressed by this product. It's a milky/creamy cleanser that is great for people with dry skin. It effectively gets off makeup without really drying your skin out. It's hypo-allergenic and doesn't have a strong, annoying scent.

Boots No. 7 Beautiful Skin Night Cream for Dry Skin

I was also impressed with this product. It's a really nice, moisturizing night cream that isn't super heavy. It doesn't leave your skin feeling greasy like a lot of products formulated for dry skin does. It soaks in fairly fast. It's hypo-allergenic & also doesn't have a strong scent.

Overall, I highly recommend these products for someone with dry skin. I think they are pretty swell.

You can purchase these products at most drugstores and super centers.

Goody Simple Styles Spin Pin

I have been wanting to try these for a while but couldn't force myself to pay nearly $8 for two pins. Being able to test this product out has changed my mind because these things are awesome. They are really good for doing simple updos without having to use a ton of bobby pins or hairpins. These work on all types of hair. My hair is super thick & these things held my side bun up all day without it loosening a bit. They are well worth the money & super easy to use.

You can purchase these for around $7.29 at most drugstores and super centers.

Not Your Mother's Kinky Moves Curl Defining Hair Cream

I am no stranger to the Not Your Mother's line of products & I can say that I do love it. I think it's a really good quality "drugstore" line of hair products.

I've wanted to try the Kinky Moves Curl Defining Cream for a while now. I have naturally curly textured hair that has a very strange curl pattern. Some areas are more of a spiral curl, some are more wavy, & some has barely any curl. When I use this product, it sort of makes my curl pattern a bit more uniform. It gives me more of a wavy curl. It smells really fresh & pleasant. It doesn't leave my hair feeling stiff or leave that weird film on your hair like some curl creams do.

Overall, I really like this product and I do plan on purchasing it again.
You can purchase this product for $6 at most drugstores & super centers.

Kiss Ever Pro Lash Starter Kit

I'm really torn on this product. There were aspects of it that I loved and some that I absolutely hated.

Let's start off with the good. This is a pretty awesome idea, a whole little lash kit. With that said, they lashes were just terrible. I prefer a more natural looking set of lashes, these fall far from that. They are very cheap and plasticky looking. Obviously they would look fabulous on some people, but they looked horrible on me!

Onto the good stuff. Holy glue, batman! This glue was freakin' fantastic! I always thought that Duo was the Holy Grail of lash glue but this stuff is just as good, if not better. It comes with a little wand similar to that of a lipgloss, so it's really easy to apply it onto the lash strip. This stuff does not budge once it's dry.
The applicator is pretty useful as well. It's a really ergonomic little tool. The slightly downward angle definitely helps in the application of the lash strips.

Overall, I would skip this kit but I would purchase the adhesive.
You can purchase this product for $4.99 at Walgreens. For more information, you can visit http://www.everezlashes.com/home

NYC New York Color IndividualEyes Custom Compact

I'm all for palettes, I think they are a great way to get a lot of bang for your buck & they are a little bit more space friendly. I was actually fairly impressed by this palette.

To start off with, let me talk a little about the pigmentation of these shadows. They actually have really good pigmentation. I was pleasantly surprised. They were really soft & easy to work with. I really like that you can do a lot with this palette as well. You can create a lovely daytime look as well as a bold look for a night out.

The downfall to this product was the terrible, awful "primer" and "illuminator". The primer was the most uncomfortable texture I have ever felt. It goes on as sort of a creamy, greasy mess but sets as more of a powdery finish. It does absolutely nothing for the shadows & it creases almost immediately. The illuminator is the same texture but it applies extremely patchy. I appreciate the fact that they tried to give you everything you need in this palette but I really think those two need to be reformulated.

Overall, these palettes are well worth the money.
You can purchase them for $4.99 at most drug stores & super centers.

Bath & Body Works Fall Mini Candle

I am a huge candle addict so I was really happy to receive one of the mini candles from Bath & Body Works in my VoxBox. Bath & Body Works makes some of the best scents ever, especially the fall collection this year.

The scent I received was Mahogany Teakwood. It smells just like men's cologne, which sounds sort of odd but it smells soooo good! I loved it so much I ended up going to get a 3-wick size of that scent. One of the things I love about Bath & Body Works candles are that they're available in different sizes. You can get a mini candle for $3.50, a medium candle for $12.50 or a 3-Wick candle for $19.50.

Clear Scalp & Hair Beauty Therapy

Good hair care is something that's really important to me. I'm all about trying new things to get my hair looking & feeling healthy.

CLEAR products are all about treating hair from the scalp. The have a range of products featuring 6 shampoos & 5 conditioners to meet different scalp & hair needs. Their products are infused with Nutrum 10TM which is a blend of vitamins & nutrients. They nourish the scalp & create a good foundation for healthy hair.

I received the CLEAR Total Care shampoo & conditioner. The first thing I noticed is that they do contain sulfates, which is a HUGE downfall for me. Having colored hair (red, to top it off) I'm very cautious about using products with sulfates in them since they tend to make color fade faster. I gave it a try anyway though. It did make my hair feel clean without being heavy or without it feeling coated. The scent is pleasant & clean as well.
Overall, I wouldn't repurchase the Total Care line of product due to the sulfate content, I would be willing to possibly purchase the Color Repair line though if it didn't have sulfates in it.

Clear Scalp & Hair Beauty Therapy products are available at mass retailers, select drugstores, & supermarkets nationwide for $4.99-$5.99
