BinkaBox January 2014

Soooo...  This is our last BinkaBox...  Not because I am unsubscribing, but because they are taking some time to "re-vamp" the box.  I hope it comes back more wonderful than ever!  :)

All the goodies!

Felted Soap Monster ($7.50)  I have seen this on the site and wanted to get one!  So excited to try it!  :)

Teeny Tools ($4.80)  Jack loves these!  As soon as I gave them to him he was playing away!  :)

Paid: $8.50
Value: $12.30

I hope this box comes back!  I really like it!  :)

BzzAgent-- Schick® Hydro Silk® Sensitive Care® Razor

I LOVE being a BzzAgent!  :)  You get to try awesome products for FREE!

Most recently I was chosen to Bzz about the Schick Hydro Silk Sensitive Care Razor.  :)  I also received a "try me free" coupon for Skintamite shave gel.  :)

I tried out the Schick Hydro Silk Sensitive Care Razor and it was really nice!  My legs felt really smooth after using it.  Sometimes when I am shaving my legs tend to dry out because I don't really like using shaving cream.  :/  But after using this razor my legs didn't dry out and I really like that about a razor.  I also liked that the 5 blades shaved really nice and close to my leg!

Over all, this razor was really awesome.  :)

Ipsy January 2014

So this is my last Ipsy bag for awhile, I am taking a break and trying out Birchbox!  :)  I am not really a big makeup person and now thanks to Ipsy I have PLENTY!  :) 

Ipsy is a great box though!  For just $10.00 you get 4-5 samples (usually full sized!) items.  :)  They also include a great make up bag each month!  :)

This is the 19 Reasons box.  :)

Épicé Purifying Exfoliant ($9.70) I am always looking for new face wash to try!  :)

Yaby Liquid Foundation ($10.00)  Foundation is good!  ;)  lol.
MicaBeauty Tinted Lip Balm ($25.00) This is one of the reasons I am taking an Ipsy break...  I have way to much!

Proactiv+ Mark Fading Pads ($4.00?)  I am excited to try these!  :)
Briogeo Don’t Despair, Repair!™ Deep Conditioning Mask ($5.00)  I am SUPER excited to try this!  I can't wait!  :)

Cost: $10.00
Value: $53.70

I think some of these prices are a little inflated, but over all a good value on a good bag!  :)

Citrus Lane January 2014 (15 months old and 4 years old)

So!  This is the second month that both boys got Citrus Lane...  And it looks like Eli won't be getting it much longer!  lol.  I am jumping off the CL bandwagon for him, but have jumped on it for Jack for a year!  :) 

Citrus Lane is $29.00 a month and has boxes for ages newborn-5.  If you buy a multi-month sub, then you get a little bit of a discount.  :)  Use my link and get $10.00 off your first box!  :)

Let's get to the good stuff!

This is the 15 month old's box...

There was also a 20% off coupon for a clothing company...  I don't use these coupons so I didn't even pay attention to the name!  lol.

Hop Skip Monkey Lunchie ($14.00)  This was disappointing because Eli got the same one in his September box.

Dapple Toy & Surface wipes ($7.50)  These are always great to have around!  :)

Ouchies Mr. Men and Little Miss 4 Boys ($3.25)  I don't know about anyone else, but I will not be putting these on my 15
                                                                                month old...  He would eat them!  lol

Plan Toys First Shape Sorter ($14.99)  Now THIS is AWESOME!  All of our shape sorters are missing shapes...  And this
                                                              one won't!  I love that!  And Jack likes this too!


And my 4 year old box....

This included the coupon too....

Mommy's Bliss upset tummy and nausea relief ($8.99)  I like Mommy's Bliss, will try these at some point.

Plan Toy's Cutting Fruit ($11.99)  Disappointing...  Only because Eli received this over the summer.  :/

Zig Zag Zebra activity book ($3.50)  Looks like fun!  Eli will use this.  :)
Faber Castell duo-tip markers ($4.99)  Useful

15 month old box:
Value: $39.74
Paid: $11.00

4 year old box:
Value: $29.47
Paid: $18.75

I am happy that the boys both liked their boxes...  But I am disappointed that there are so many repeats. 

Taking December Off and Violet VoxBox! :)

So, it's pretty evident that I have taken the month of December off from blogging.  :)  I needed a moment to gather myself together and get through the holidays.  :)  I have managed to do that and am ready and excited to get going on January!  :)

But in the meantime, let's take a look at the Violet VoxBox I was chosen to review!  YEAH!

In the Violet VoxBox I received:

1: Sally Hansen Triple Shine nail polish in Play Koi--  The color is a nice orangy color.  :)  It will be perfect for spring!  :)  I tried it out and it dries SUPER fast!  :)

2: Not Your Mother's Clean Freak Dry Shampoo--  This is my first time using a dry shampoo.  I liked it enough and it will work when I don't want to wash my hair.  ;)

3: SOYJOY Cranberry Bar--  I like cranberries but am not so sure about this...  I have yet to try it.  I am trying to psych myself up!  lol.

4: Goody Athlétique Ouchless Headwrap--  I have short hair (again!) and LOVE good headbands!  :)  This one is right up there!  Plus I like that it is fast drying.  :)

5: Montagne Jeunesse Clay Spa--  Anyone who knows me knows that I LOVE masques!  And clay masques are the best!  :)  I don't get to use them often with two little ones, but I love them when I do!  :)

Overall my Violet VoxBox was a success!  :) 

I love being an Influinster!  When you review products you have more of a chance to be chosen to review more products!  I have been chosen for 3 VoxBox's so far and they have all been really fun!  I hope to be chosen for more in 2014!

Fancy Pants November 2013

This is a new (to me) snack box...  Fancy Pants.  I am in the seach for a new snack box, but so far I am not finding anything that I really enjoy.  Let's see what happens!  :)

Fancy Pants is $10.00 a month and they send "amazing food they you probably never heard of".  :)

Here are the goods!  :)

Kelapo Coconut Oil ($1.20)  Something interesting that Rick might find usefull...  ?  lol
Hint Mints ($2.24)  I don't like mints very often, so I will pass these on!  :)

Oats Granola ($0.78)  Might be good.  :)

Lord Nut Levintgon Peanuts ($1.32)  I tried these and they were YUMMY!  :)

JJ's Sweets Cocomels ($0.75)  I think these will be good!  :)

I was not very impressed by this first box and think I will continue my search for a new snack box!  :)

DottieBox Mini November 2013

I won this DottieBox Mini from DottieBox in November!  :)  I just love winning boxes!  :)

DottieBox Mini is $13.00 a month and comes with 2-3 items in it.  A great way to try out some awesome products!  :)

The info card that they send is so cute!  It's business card sized!  :)

Dinglewood Design and Press coasters ($2.00)  Cute!

Glitter Guilty nail polish ($8.00)  Love this!  So glittery and cute!
