Bzzagent - Garnier Fructis Sleek and Shine

I know, I know - my blog usually covers my Influenster Voxboxes, but I thought I'd branch out!  Yesterday, I received my bzzkit from my latest bzzcampaign - if you aren't familiar with bzzagent.com, I highly recommend that you check them out! Here's a little background info about them from their website:

"Connecting people and their favorite brands since 2001, BzzAgent is the leading social marketing company. What's that mean to you? We put products in the hands of hundreds of thousands of real consumers and help them share their opinions about them with friends and family via reviews, Facebook posts, photos and videos, blog posts and more. We wouldn't call ourselves heroes, but it's okay if you want to."

My current bzzcampaign is for Garnier Fructis Sleek and Shine.  I received a full size shampoo AND conditioner to test!

I've only used it once, but so far, so good!  It smells great, lathers well, and, if I do say so myself, m hair looked extra fabulous today!  It has argan oil in it, which delivers long lasting shine to keep your hair looking sleek for 3 days- even in 97% humidity!  It's reasonably priced (the line ranges from $3.99-$6.99) and you can get it any any mass retailer like Target, Walmart, Walgreens, etc.

In addition, the packaging contains PET and 30% recycled plastic- they're 10% lighter, which saves over 125 tons of plastic every year- who wouldn't love that?

Venus & Olay Razor

In my LoveBox from www.influenster .com, I received a Venus and Olay razor to test out - let me tell you - at first glance, this thin intimidated me!  It looked HUGE!  It has 5 (yes -FIVE!!!) blades, plus moisture strips on the top AND bottom! How crazy is that?



(Apologies for the crappy lighting - it doesn't do the product justice!) This razor is amazing  the first time I used it, I could hardly feel it gliding against my skin - I thought 'wait a minute, is this thing even doing anything?" But let me tell you - it WAS - no need for shaving gel, it let my legs amazing  smooth and soft.  And with the temps in TX already in the mid 80's, I have a feeling this little razor will be getting a LOT of use over the next few months.

Oh, and another thing I love - it came with a little suction cup holder that you can attach to your shower wall - genius!

This product just became available 3/15 - so it's brand spanking new - visit www.gillettevenus.com for more info, or head over to your local drug store, grocery store or mass retailer.  They are a little pricey ($8.99 - $10.99 for a starter pack w/ one cartridge, $14.99 - $19.49 for a a3 pack of replacement cartridges) but I promise you - it's worth every penny!

Kiss Nail Dress

So, you might recall from a previous post that I have horrible nails - they don't grow, I'm always picking at them - blech!  I recently had the opportunity recently to try ANOTHER no muss, no fuss nail product - In my LoveBox from influenster.com, I received Kiss Nail Dress - it's like a nail polish sticker - you just peel, apply, and you're ready to go - in theory, they are supposed to last 10 DAYS! I plan to put that to the test!


Isn't that pattern fabulous!  I little more "out there" than I usually go, but I think it will be fun for a night out!  Who know?  Maybe I can rock it at work too!  They come in 18 different styles - some of them have gorgeous sparkly jewels that create a 3-d effect! (ok, is my inner girly girl showing?)

I love the fact that you can get these at stores that most people have easy access to, live CVS, Walgreen and Walmart - and for $6.99, the price can't be beat!
