Influenster Sugar and Spice VoxBox

I am very behind on my blog, and even more so behind on my reviews, but I decided to pop in and do my Sugar and Spice VoxBox post for everyone to let you know what I got in my box and how I felt about the products!
I first got a box of Dickinson's Witch Hazel wipes.  I have to tell you, these guys stink.  They smell like cognac, which I don;t want to wipe all over my face.  BUT they are pretty good at refreshing my face after a long day.  One of my jobs requires me to be outside all day in the heat, and after a long day these definitely felt great.  I don't know if I would repurchase or not, since I prefer Tea Tree oil for oil control, but they were nice and very convenient.
 Second was a set of products from the Colgate Optic While collection.  For the toothpaste and mouthwash I can't say much, they were way too strong for me to use.  I am a cinnamon toothpaste user and antrhing peppermint is just too much for me.  I can tell you that I love the brush!  It's wonderful.  I always feel like my whole mouth is clean when I am done using it.
 Next I got a Spray and Go moisturizer from Vaseline.  This was really give or take for me.  I like the convenience, it really is easy to use.  The scent was nice too.  I don't think I would go out of my way to get another one, but if I was out of lotion and needed something easy for vacation or something I would definitely grab for one of these.
 Then I got a package of Nectresse packets.  I know Nectresse already and can't say I love it.  It is good for what it is, but I prefer real sugar.  I have used all sorts of artificial sweeteners and this one is on my list of tolerable, but in the end I will still reach for cane sugar.  I will say, it does not have a strong flavor and can be used in baking just fine.

Finally, I received some belVita breakfast bars.  These were interesting.  I liked the flavor and convenience, they would definitely be filling enough for a grab and go bar.  The only problem is that they were so dry that I would still need to have some water or milk with them, making them less of a one stop breakfast snag.  They were great, but not for eating on their own.

Overall this box was actually a happy surprise.  I liked most of the products and they all served their purpose.  I was not BLOWN AWAY with any one particular thing like the last time, but each one held it's own and would be worth paying money for.  Thanks Influenster for this VoxBox, I enjoyed it.

All products were sent for review from Influenster.com
