Gillette Venus and Olay: 2012 L♥ve VoxBox featured product Review

I got my first VoxBox from Influenster which is the Love VoxBox earlier this month and I made a blog post explaining what's Influenster , what is a Voxbox, how you can join and qualify for a VoxBox.

2012 L♥ve VoxBox


One of the products I received was the Gillette Venus and Olay. I use both Gillette and Olay products so I was very excited to try this razor!!!


Gillette Venus and Olay with Venus' 5 Blades and Olay Moisture Bars



After trying this product I found out that this is a unique razor because it has the Venus' 5 Blades and instead of LubaStrip this razor has the Olay moisture bars. Once you wet the razor and start shaving, you will feel the Olay moisture bar creates this soapy feeling without the heavy lather. I like how it glides smoothly to your skin, making shaving easier and faster! You will also feel your skin being moisturized while Venus' 5 Blades shave you close. So after I shaved, my legs were so smooth and without the dryness which I usually feel after shaving!!


Gillette Venus and Olay is a must have specially the "Dress and Bikini" season is fast approaching. This is good to take for travels too, coz you dont have to carry shaving cream anymore. And it also comes with SoftGrip handle for confident control and a very cute shower hook, so you can put it where it won't get wet and you can make sure you're razor will always be clean.


And the verdict.... I love this razor!!!! It has both the power of two great products Gillette and Olay. This is definitely what you need to achieve Goddess Skin!! I'll definitely buy more once it's available in-store by the end of this month or early April.

My First Voxbox from Influenster: The L♥veVoxBox

Couple of months ago, I joined "Influenster" after seeing a video on YouTube of "Unboxing a VoxBox". At first I had no idea what a"VoxBox" is but after seeing the video, it is just an amazing box full of free goodies. For you to qualify for a Voxbox you have to sign up at Influenster (for free) and unlock badges that fit your lifestyle. There are two types of badges you can unlock. The first one is the "Lifestyle Badges". For example, let's say that you travel a lot, you may unlock the jetsetter "Marco Polo" badge. If you're a techie person you may unlock the "Techie" badge. There are also badges for Moms, Bride to Be's, College students, Dog and Cat Lovers and many more. The Lifestyle Badges will determine what products you use, may try or have expertise with. This is my first Voxbox, but I know Influenster has several Voxboxes scheduled this year. Depending on the theme of the Voxbox and the badges you unlocked, Influenster will be able to know on which Voxbox they should consider you for. The second type of Badges are the "Influence Badges". These badges will determine how much you can influence other people of trying new products, ideas, services etc. There's "Youtuber" badge for Vloggers out there, "Blogger" badge for bloggers, "Tweetster" "Party Host" etc. Unlocking Influence Badges is very important because that's what Influenster is all about, influencing other people, giving your opinions and spreading the word for new great products that Influenster will let you test and try.

So now that we know what a Voxbox and what Influenster is, time for the LoveVoxBox Yaaay!! The lucky recipients of this Voxbox were announced around Valentines day, that's why it's called L♥veV♥xb♥x. And last Thursday I finally got my VoxBox and got these 5 great products!!


♥♥♥LoveVoxBox♥♥♥


I use both Gilette and Olay Products, so both in one product?? Perfect match for #GoddessSkin !!

Designed with a love for smooth legs and a passion for skin care, the Venus & Olay razor is a match made in skin heaven. Olay Moisture Bars release skin conditioners to help lock in moisture and boost your shave* while 5 blades get Venus close.




I'm so excited to try this!! I dont put nail polish a lot coz it takes so much time to apply and dry and I hate the smell too, so it's really great to be able to dress up your nails fast and without the stinky polish smell! They sent me this very cute hot pink-zebra like print with sparkles called Cocktail.#kissnaildress


No drying time. Just peel, apply and shape. Last up to 10 days!!


Stash Herbal Tea Sampler

Not only they come in these colorful packages they also smell delicious!! Haven't tried it yet but I will definitely try all of these flavors. They sent me an 18 ct. Sampler Caffeine Free in 9 different flavors (don't know why I only took picture of the 8 ☺). There are two of each of these flavors: Wild Raspberry Hibiscus, Acai Berry, Blueberry Superfruit, Mango Passionfruit, Cinnamon Apple Chamomile, Peppermint, Licorice Spice, Chamomile and Lemon Ginger. This Stash Teas are made from 100% Natural Ingredients so I know its healthy and good and I'm gonna boil me some water now! #stashtea



Grab your cup, sit back, sip and enjoy learning about the art and ceremony of this treasured drink.



Ghirardelli Gourmet Milk Creamy Devotion Bar

Both me and my husband are Chocoholics, we've tried other Ghirardelli Chocolates and we loved them, specially the "Pumpkin Spice Caramel Squares" unfortunately it's seasonal. So excited to try this new flavor and share it with hubby (or not). ☺♥☺ #iloveghirardelli



The decadently rich and creamy 32% cacao milk chocolate in Creamy Devotion™ delivers an epicurean chocolate experience. Experience a moment of timeless pleasure with all natural Ghirardelli Gourmet Milk™ chocolate.


Truvia® Natural Sweetener

The natural and zero-calorie part of Truvia® is really awesome!! For anything that needs sweetening like coffee, tea, cooking and baking I only use regular white sugar, but I can't wait to taste the difference with this natural sweetener. #truvia

Truvia® natural sweetener has zero calories and is made from the best tasting part of the stevia leaf to sweeten your coffee, tea or baked goods.

So these are the great products I got from my L♥ve VoxBox to try and review. I'll post the full review for all of these products after I tried them all. Thanks so much again to Influenster!! And if you're in the US and would like to be an Influenster too, just click here.
