Swiss Miss Simply Cocoa

I received a packet of Swiss Miss Simply Cocoa in Milk Chocolate in my #modavoxbox free for testing purposes from Influenster.com 

I always drank this brand growing up, but haven't had it in probably over 10 years. I was very pleased to see that it contains only 5 simple ingredients: Sugar, cocoa, milk, salt, & natural flavor. Most brands out there use a bunch of unhealthy fillers, and I was glad to see Swiss Miss only uses the basics. I made mine with almond/coconut blend milk, and topped it with some whipped cream. It was just like homemade chocolate milk, and I will for sure purchase it in the future. 

Thank you Swiss Miss and influenster for the free sample! *opinions are entirely my own! and I did not get paid to write this review. #swissmisssimplycocoa

Influenster

I'm gonna let you in on a little secret: Influenster! It's a website where you submit reviews of products, fill out surveys, and answer questions about products. These activities help you earn points and badges. The great thing about increasing your score and earning badges is that you can be selected to receive a FREE VoxBox of products to try and review. Your chances of receiving a box are determined to your demographic, lifestyle and interests, which are gathered from the information you provide. To find out more about Influenster, please click on the link to the right as a direct link to the site. 

I was recently chosen for the "Ice Cream Stock up" and the "Vitality Voxbox" 
*All items below were given to me complimentary from Influenster for testing purposes.


#ICECREAMSTOCKUP*
The ice cream #voxbox came in a shiny metallic red envelope with a coupon for a free box of Fruttare, Klondike, or magnum ice cream. I received the Klondike one. I just got the regular Klondike bars that have the vanilla ice cream covered in the chocolate shell. That is the only selection my local Target had of Klondike bars. They were very rich and creamy. I could only eat a bite or two at a time, and store it in the freezer when I needed a sugar fix. My husband and son ate most of them! They were good, and better yet they were free. I am interested in trying the Fruttare bars that some others were lucky enough to try!

Vitality VOXBOX

First degree Burn Cream*
#burnshappen
I've never had burn cream on hand, because I usually just use ice, which doesn't even work. Now that I have had it on hand, I've used it a lot! I cook in the kitchen all the time, and have realized I burn my fingers quite often! It provides instant relief!



Bikini Ready Gummies*

#bikinireadylifestyle
I was skeptical of an "energy gummy". I'm really particular about certain flavors and textures, and was worried I would gag when I tried them. I was pleasantly surprised when I decided to try them, and they actually tasted really good, and the texture was just like a gummy bear. I only received a pack of 2 so I wasn't able to really tell the difference in my energy, but I will say, they were "tasty".
I will definitely try them again.



Pure Leaf Tea*
#loveofleaves
I was given a whole bottle of Pure Leaf tea. It was lightly sweetened lemon flavor. It was good, but I prefer unsweetened. After I sampled the lemon, I was curious to try the other flavors. I recently purchased Pure Leaf unsweetened plain tea, and really love it. I prefer it over any other bottled tea I have tried. The others don't taste "freshly brewed". I really enjoyed the natural and fresh flavor of Pure Leaf.

 You can help do some good...Pure Leaf  will donate $1 to Wholesome Wave to help provide 100,000 pounds of locally grown fresh fruit and vegetables for people in our communities.

Softlips cube*
#getcubed
I grew up using the original Softlips lipbalm. I haven't used it for years, and was happy to see it in a new little cube! The style and shap is really pretty. The vanilla flavor is amazing too! Brings back pleasant memories. The shape of the actual balm reminds me of the EOS brand. I like that it's a cube instead of the ball shape of EOS, so you can set it down without it rolling away. The only thing is, it's not a shape that fits well in a pocket. It's fine to go in a handbag, but I can't just stick it in a wallet or my pocket. That's the only negative thing in can say. It would make a cute gift to add to a care package for a girl in college. It's a trendy item, but I prefer the stick shape version.



Playtex Sport Tampons*
#playon
I got a package of Playtex sport tampons. These were scented which I usually can't stand, but it was very lightly scented, and you wouldn't know it was the "smell of a tampon" if you opened your purse...if that makes sense. (You don't want all your bags to smell like "tampons") They actually worked really well too! No leaks! I really was surprised of the leak protection these provided throughout the week. I will definitely purchase these again, and recommend them to anyone. I am super active, and they were very comfortable and effective.



Elizabeth Arden Flawless Future Powered by Ceramide Caplet Serum*
#flawlessfuture
The packaging is gorgeous for this cute little sample serum. I love the look of the  pretty white caplet mini-beads in the clear gel. They activate when you dispense it out of the pump! So not only is it gorgeous to look at, it also makes your skin beautiful too! My skin is very sensitive, and it worked well and didn't give me any side effects. I feel like my skin is smoother and the gel offers a cooling effect. I would love to try the whole system. They also make a "flawless future" moisturizing gel and eye cream, which I would love to try! You can find it here: http://bit.ly/EAFlawlessFutureSerum




After reviewing each of these items, I can honestly say all of these items would definitely be WMW (Worth my Dollars) and I would feel comfortable purchasing them in the near future.
