Voxbox Cosmo review from Influenster


Okay pardon me if I am not 100% on my game. Have you ever heard of Influenster? Yeah neither had I until a friend of mine had told me about it. Anyway it’s an online site that allows trend setters (such as you and I) to try out new and upcoming products, or products that area already out in the store. I’ve seen the voxbox’s all over you tube, but I’m not really into the video recording and posting on youtube. So my clever little blog will have to suffice for my review.

In my little white box, I got the following products;

Ghirardelli Sea salt Chocolate (I’ll save this one for my last review)
Venus Razor and Cartridge
Forever Red perfume
2 Piolt FriXion ball point pens

My first review is based on the pens, These days it seems like it’s so hard to find a good ball point pen that writes smoothly. I of all things attempted to use this pen on the most important piece of paper (can’t you sense my sarcasm)? My rent check!

I’ll admit it, I was a little skeptical to be using it especially not had used it on anything else. But let me be the first to say this is one of those pens someone will barrow and steal from you!!

My second review is based on the Forever Red perfume, I’m not really into perfumes as they tend to be too strong and give me a headache. But this one wasn’t too bad; it was more of a mild musk smell. With that being said it still wasn’t for me.

Third review is on the Venus Razor and Cartridge. First before I give you the low down on the razor, I want to know what woman likes to actually shave their legs and underarms?? I know it’s one of the most annoying task I have being a women. It seems like I do this every other day! I told you it was an annoying task. Not to mention the necessities that ones to get a nice smooth leg. So I went out and bought my favorite shaving gel. Shaved and honestly I wasn’t impressed with the Venus Embrace razor. I felt ashy after shaving and felt like I didn’t get that close of a shave. You know the feeling when you use a dual blade? That’s exactly how I felt for days after. So I waited about 3-4 days and used the Venus & Olay cartridge that was sent as well. Let’s just say it was heavenly!! My legs felt so soft after (and I forgot to use the shaving gel too) It was like a bit of lotion was rubbed on my leg with each stroke of shaving! I’ve actually just switched my razors now to the Venus & Olay!!

Oh and the best part of Venus razors are….They is interchangeable!! That means you can use ANY Venus BLADE with any Venus Handle!! AMAZING; RIGHT?

Lastly, My review is on the Ghirardelli Sea salt Chocolate. My oh my, I don’t know exactly how to put into words to describe this chocolate bar. I’m not really a fan of salt period! But this was delightful! The almonds and touch of sea salt were just right, it was a smooth and creamy chocolate. My loving husband who is a Chocolate nut gave me the word as Yummy to describe it, and asked if there was more. The only downside to this chocolate is the price! It’s a tad expensive considering the taste though it’s well worth the extra cash.

Well there is my review, looking forward to doing many more voxbox’s!!  Thanks to Influsenster for such a great box.
