NYC HD Color Trio

I very luckily received the Influenster Jolly Vox Box full of amazing free samples to try out this December. I'm not payed to review anything but I did get everything free!

One of the first things out of the box was the New York Color HD Eye Shadow Color Trio. I had seen this in stores but I had been a little weary on trying it out. I'm always a little cautious with eye shadow as I'm not great at applying it so I want to make sure I buy great quality stuff.

When I tried out the trio I was struck by how much I liked it. It was easy to apply, whether I wanted all three or just one color, and it stayed for the entire night.

The Colors were very simple, easy to blend, and went well together. The colors aren't extremely potent but they look good regardless.


I'm extremely impressed with NYC and I look forward to trying out other trios!

NYC Big Bold Lipgloss

Just a disclaimer: I received this product complimentary from Influenster and NYC. I was not paid to review this product.

I am definitely more of a lipstick type of girl but this gloss lasts a long time, so I was impressed right off the bat. It goes on smooth, and smells nice. The only downside to the product was the fact that the color didn't really show up well, but I think that may be because it was very similar to my own lip color. The shine is really nice, it's a gloss not a glittery shine. I definitely would get this on other colors for a sheer but shiny look.

The packaging is great, though a little bit clunky. I think that I'll find myself reaching for this product more in the spring and the summer because the pink color just doesn't feel very "autumn" or "winter" to me. I may however try to incorporate it if I do a really heavy eye make-up look.

I would suggest getting a color that isn't so close to your own lip color, unless of course you want a shiny sort of nude lip. I would definitely check these out because for about $4
 they are definitely worth the price!

Lifeway Kefir Cultered Milk Smoothie

If there is something I enjoy more than a cold refreshing drink, I don't know what it would be. That is why I was so excited to try the Kefir Lifeway probiotic smoothie, it was cold, looked pretty refreshing, and I could mix it in with my favorite fruits for a delicious combination and a healthy snack, morning meal, or beverage. Thanks to Influenster and Lifeway Kefir I got the chance to try the Strawberry smoothie for free, and I was glad I did. It's a convenient mix in for my favorite fruit smoothie recipe and it's filled with probiotics. Not to mention it tastes great on it's own, if you're feeling like you want a simple snack.
