Hey guys!
I know it's been awhile since I've posted, but nursing school has been one heck of a ride! Even with all of my time taken up, Influenster was kind enough to send me a new box to open and try out for free! If you're interested in signing up and recieving your own boxes, head on over to infleunster.com and attach all of your social media to your account and start filling out those surveys :) Hope you guys enjoy this unboxing!

Finally, A beauty voxbox!! I have tried many different individual items from Influenster, but the only other voxbox that came with multiple items was the Spirit voxbox. If you guys read my post on that, you know that I was a little disappointed with that. This one I am a little more happy with since it is beauty geared :) So I will go through each product in the Rosy Voxbox and give you my thoughts on it.
The first thing we will start with is the Fancy Feet Ball of Foot cushions. This retails for $5.49.
Description: Give the ball of your foot a break with Fancy Feet by Foot Petals ball of foot cushions. Add stability and shock absorption to your strut, while keeping feet from sliding forward with each step. These virtually invisible cushions are breathable and formulated with antimicrobial technology, keeping feet cool and dry. Essential for heels, wedges, flats, boots and sandals. Visit Macy's or Kohl's for more comfort and fit solutions from the Fancy Feet brand.
I have to admit that I have never tried one of these feet cushions before, mostly because I never ever wear heels and most are targeted for heels. It's nice that they put more shoe options in the description for girls like me that can't walk in heels to save my life. I will probably try these with the tennis shoes that I wear at the hospital for nursing clinicals, or my tall winter boots. Just feeling them with my hands, I can tell they have good stability. Excited to try these!
Next up is the Purell Advanced Hand Sanitizer Naturals, which retails for $1.59-$1.79. Description: Purell Advanced Hand Sanitizer Naturals, which is made with 93% naturally derived ingredients and naturally fragranced using essential oils, eliminates 99.99% of illness-causing germs.
As random as it seems that this was included in the bunch, it's actually perfect for me. When I get done with clinicals, I usually wish I had hand sanitizer in my car that I can easily pump into my hands. Now I do! It's also nice because it doesn't have a strong scent to it, it's just that classic hand sanitizer smell. Nice little extra that I will use a lot! Just be careful if you have a cut on your hand....ouch!
Here we have the Secret Clinical Strength Deodorant, which retails for $7.99. Description: Putting together the perfect outfit is stressful enough without worrying about pit stains on your most coveted clothes. Secret's Clinical Strength Collection provides women with 2x the sweat and protection, making fashion sacrifices a thing of the past.
I've tried this before and loved it even then. This was perfect timing because I am running out of my current other Secret deodorant (seems like everything that is sent in these boxes is always something I need to restock anyways). I really, truly believe this is the best on the market strength wise. It keeps my smelly and sweaty armpits at bay all day, without staining clothes, and I pack on the deodorant let me tell you. My only downside with this product is the price, you really have to pay those extra dollars for quality. Is it worth it? For sure!
The last product in this voxbox is the Not Your Mother's Beach Babe Soft Waves Sea Salt Spray. This retails for $7 full size, $3 travel size (I'm guessing that's what I received). Description: Not Your Mother's Beach Babe Soft Waves Sea Salt Spray is infused with sea salt, aloe & sea kelp for a soft, textured, tousled look. The formula is free of sulfate, paraben, phthalate, dye and gluten and is safe for all hair types.
I actually have tried this in the past, just not in this "tropical banana" scent (which actually reminds me of coconut). I...kind of liked it. I tried it again when I received this with damp freshly washed hair, and it did help to give my hair beach waves. But the thing with my hair is it is so damaged that if I do not heat style it, no matter what product I use, it ends up looking like a damaged frizzy mess. I will say this semi helped with taming my natural hair, but I still felt self conscious throughout the entire day nonetheless. So I give this product a B-, just for my personal hair type. It's okay, not something I will reach for everyday. I will probably use this for those mornings where I forgot to wash my hair last night and I can't use dry shampoo, I have to wash my hair (and I'm on the go). I think it is worth a try, especially if you're someone who is lazy and doesn't have time to curl your hair but you want that effortless beachy waves look.
So there you have it, the Rosy Voxbox from Influenster! Gotta say that I was pleasantly surprised by this box, everything I will not only use but probably enjoy until it is all used up. Influenster has really been generous with sending me items to try, so be sure to follow my blog for more voxbox unboxings! Until then, have a wonderful spring and day cupcakes!

I received two Embrace scents by Vera Wang, Periwinkle & Iris, and Green Tea & Pear Blossom. Full size retails for $29.99. Description: A collection of fragrances that evokes the intimacy and emotion of Vera Wang, capturing moments in time to be cherished and embraced.
The Periwinkle & Iris reminds me a lot of the Britney Spears Fantasy scent, it has that almost bubble gum kind of scent to it that doesn't smell like it's for a kid. It's my favorite out of the 2 since these are the kind of scents I usually reach for. The other scent, Green Tea & Pear Blossom, is that classic perfume smell that every department store has floating around. It reminds me of my mom's perfume, the Estee Lauder Beyond Paradise, so it kind of has a nostalgic touch to it because when I was little I used to spray it in our hallway closet and quickly shut the door so she wouldn't know I sprayed it...
