NURTURE VOXBOX BY INFLUENSTER

Become an Influenster!

Welcome to my blog about my Nurture VoxBox. I am very excited to receive these products free for my review and testing purposes. All my opinions are my own. 

Red Vines $1.59
Ore-Ida Extra Crispy $1.25 (Coupon) 

Hada Labo Tokyo Mask
This mask is 100% cotton and claims to boost hydration, smooth fine lines, restores firmness, and bounce to your skin using Hyaluronic Acid. It is soft, cool, and seems to hydrate really well. The mask did fit better than others that I have tried. I don't know if I would indulge in these very often, because of the price, but it does make my face feel great. 

Uncle Ben's Flavored Grains
I am already a huge fan of Uncle Ben's. I have been using them as side dishes for years. I love the ease of cooking the flavored grains and the great taste. There are many flavors to choose from. 

Blue Lizard Australian Sunscreen Broad spectrum SPF 30+
I received a full size tube of the sensitive formula. It uses only high quality natural minerals, Zinc Oxide, and Titanium Dioxide, for broad spectrum UVA-UVB skin protection. It has no scent to speak of, is chemical free, paraben free, and dermatologist-recommended. Reapply to dry skin at least every two hours. The cap also doubles as a UV detector. The deeper blue the cap becomes, the more UV rays are present. That is a fun, added bonus. I have used this formula on my son, and I am very pleased with it's performance. I love knowing it is a natural protection free from chemicals. If you are so inclined or have a huge need for high quality sunscreen (maybe you own a safari park or zoo with 300 employees) you can purchase this by the gallon (and smaller, normal sizes) at www.bluelizard.net. 

Dramamine Non-Drowsy Naturals
This is the first truly non-drowsy product from Dramamine for the prevention or treatment of motion sickness. As a natural product, I have greater confidence in using this when my family or I am ill. My mother who HATES flying, took 2 capsules 30 minutes before her flight and it helped greatly.  Made from ginger and can be used by ages 6 and up. If you have problems with motion sickness, It is my suggestion to buy some and see if it is right for you. I plan on putting some in my first aid kit. 

Red Vines
As a red licorice lover, I was excited to see these were included in my VoxBox. I don't really have a whole lot to say about these except YUMMMM. From the first time I tried Red Vines, it has always been my favorite licorice. 

Ore-Ida Extra Crispy Fries
Crispy Fries in the microwave. What! In four minutes start enjoying crispy fries. I can't wait to redeem my coupon. (I will be stocking up on these when I make the 80 mile trip to the store) I love Ore-Ida. 

ATTITUDE Hair Care
I was very very excited to see this in my package. The formula we received was for volume. Unfortunately, I have extremely damaged hair that doesn't work with volume shampoo, however, I have used it on my 5 yr old son and he loves it. It is free from nasty ingredients that are still allowed in other shampoos. It has a fresh clean scent and makes his hair softer than his baby shampoo. I love the fact that is available at Target. I will be checking out the other formulas for myself. The confidence in using a product free from cancer causing agents gives me immense satisfaction.

Vicks Voxbox

I am so lucky to have been picked to test and review the Vicks Mini Filter Free Cool Mist Humidifier sent to me by Influenster. This little gadget is seriously cool. Where have you been all my life?

 These are the 6 things you need to know about this wonderful little machine.


  1. It is amazingly quiet
  2. It actually is vapor (unlike some that spit and sputter water all over) 
  3. It's easy to fill with water (no splashing or spilling)
  4. No filter to clean = minimal maintenance 
  5. It is small = small footprint too
  6. Up to 10 hrs operation with a .5 gallon container
Our family already owns 4 humidifiers, and 3 of those I only get out of storage if we are sick, the fourth is a Vicks Nightlight Humidifier for my sons room (which he loves). I don't like sleeping in a room with our previous humidifiers because they are loud, they get water all over, and they make the room feel cold.  I am very impressed by this Vicks Cool Mist Humidifier. The best part is.....it's effective. I can already feel the difference. I have environmental allergies and seasonal allergies, and have had many sinus infections, sore throats, and nasal issues because of it. I also live in Wyoming where the winter is very dry, the snow blows cold, and brings with it the previously mentioned ailments. I am excited to see if the increased usage will decrease my sinus problems.

If you need a humidifier, do yourself a favor and check this one out. It's quiet, the vapor is adjustable, it's small, and it doesn't spit. A humidifier that doesn't spit is worth it in my book. #VicksCoolMist
