Summer Beauty VoxBox

Hello everyone!
So a couple weeks ago I was sent the Influenster Summer Beauty VoxBox. Basically, you fill out a bunch surveys and things about your lifestyle and occasionally the company will send you products to try out and review. I was pretty excited, who doesn't like free stuff?
Anyway, I received Hawaiian Tropic Silk spf 30, Sally Hansen Magnetic nail color, Clear Scalp & Hair Therapy, Always Tampax Radiant sample pack and a Quaker Breakfast Bar. So I just wanted to write a quick post about what I thought about these.


Hawaiian Tropic Silk Hydration Lotion Sunscreen SPF 30
This stuff smells great, it has that classic Banana Boat smell not like a regular sunscreen. This is perfect for everyday use, when you are not going to be in the sun for an extended period of time. I made the mistake of using this instead of regular sunscreen while at the lake the other day, it was a mistake, I got super sunburned :(

Sally Hansen Magnetic nail color in Polar Purple
This works way better than the Essence magnetic polishes I own but I still had the same issue with accidentally bumping the magnet on my wet polish.  

Clear Scalp & Hair Therapy
At first I loved this stuff, it made my hair super silky and shiny. Then after a few uses my scalp got REALLY irritated. I cannot say with 100% certainty that is was because of this but once my scalp heals I'll try using it again to confirm.


Always Tampax Radiant sample pack
Ummm....they're lady products...not much I can say here except that I will definitely be purchasing the liners.


Quaker Soft Baked Banana Nut Bar
Pretty tasty, but I don't really eat breakfast so it was a little rich for me early in the morning.

You should all sign up, it's super easy!

Mini Sally Girl Haul with Swatches

Hello lovelies!

Yesterday I picked up a few Sally Girl products and I thought I'd share. :)

 And these are the SG first lip products I've gotten. Lip Color-388350 and Lip Gloss-388379

Spotted! New Wet N Wild Polishes-Fergie Collection

Hello darlings!
As some of you may know, Fergie is the new(ish) global beauty ambassador for Wet N Wild Cosmetics. This is the first LE line they have come out with together so far.

Here are the ones I picked up:

Heels of Steel: A charcoal/black bases packed with gunmetal silver glitter. Opaque in one coat.

Tonight's Gonna Be A Good Night: Clear base with small black glitters and larger gold hex pieces.

 Miami Spirit: A very green teal (the pic looks more blue) with ultra fine blue and green shimmer. Dries matte, but looks great with a glossy topcoat.

 Hollywood Wall of Fame: Lots of different color stars, bars and tiny square glitters in a clear base.

All swatches are two coats

NOTD-Miami Spirit with Hollywood Wall of Fame on the Ring Finger and a glossy topcoat.

 So far I like these. The colors are beautiful and go on very nicely without streaking. It has a flat wide(ish) brush that is much easier to work with and a bit smaller than the ones from the Spoiled line. I'm tempted to go back and get a few more colors :) Has anyone else seen these yet? What do think?
