Influenster #lovevoxbox - Gillette Venus & Olay Razor

Today I would like to share my opinion/thoughts on the Venus & Olay Razor included in the Influenster Love VoxBox. 

When I opened it, I noticed a slight tropical smell.  I couldn't quite tell if it was coconut or cocoa butter.  Either way, it was light and pleasant.

I loved that it came with a little suctioned cup hook.  I have very little space in my shower and have a tall rack, but I'm a product hoarder so to speak and have little room.  I was a little concerned about knocking it off, so I put it on the wall near my shower door so I didn't have to worry and it didn't get soaked with water all the time.

I've used this 3-4 times on my legs and underarms and I can say it works quite well.  I like that I don't have to worry about having yet another product, shaving cream, in the shower.  The only downfall I have is that the moisture bars seem to disappear quickly.  Mine is on the verge of breaking off and I've not even used it that much.

While I like this product, I prefer the Venus Embrace and Venus Breeze over this one. 

Now for some product info:

Love VoxBox item - Ghirardelli Creamy Devotion Chocolate

Today I'm sharing my review/opinion/thoughts on Chirardelli Creamy Devotion Chocolate from Influenster's Love Vox Box. 

I was really excited to try this.  I love Ghirardelli's brownie mix, but haven't really tried their chocolate yet.  When I received my VoxBox, the bottom was a tad bit warm.  Even though it wasn't warm outside when I received it, the box was.  So I felt the items as I pulled them out and the chocolate felt warm too.  What do you do when you have warm chocolate?  Put it in the fridge.  I'm not sure if this was the right thing to do or if I received a bad bar, because when I opened the package and went to break a piece off, I was terribly disappointed. 

That's what I saw.  It looked hollow.  And the chocolate tasted almost grainy.  Like all I was eating was chocolate powder & sugar.  Not smooth & milky at all.  So, I kept trying figuring maybe it would get better.....yeah, so didn't happen.

This last pic, the chocolate was missing off that portion of the wrapper.  I didn't remove any, it was just a big hole like that. 

Needless to say I didn't go any further.  I checked with a few other people who I knew received the box and theirs was fine.  Yummy in fact.  I hate that I received this in this condition as I really wanted to love it, but can't.

CHOCOLATTTTTTTTTEEEEEEEEEEEEE!

I actually can't wait to try everything in here.  I've used a Venus razor before, but never this one(of course it's new) and LOVED it.  I'm really not much of a hot tea person, but I will give it a try.  The SO might not get any of the chocolate, but he'll probably steal my tea from me.  LoL. 

I had to include this next pic because I wasn't using any lighting, but for some reason this one turned out red and & thought it was fitting for this box.

Influenster will be doing a LOT more boxes this year.  If you're interested, GO HERE, sign up and go ahead & open some badges up to get started.

I will say that while the current box is in the review process with everyone they won't send anymore of that particular box out.  For example, if you sign up now and open badges, you're not going to get the Love Vox Box.  Try to open as many badges as you can that pertain to you.  Follow them on Facebook and you'll see them update current or upcoming programs.  Also, if you sign up now, you may or may not be chosen to receive the next box.  Not everyone who signs up gets every box & not everyone who qualifies gets a box. 

Keep in mind, sign up and open badges.  BE PATIENT!  If you don't get a box for the next program, you're still in the system for future boxes. 


If y'all have any questions, please let me know.
