Mama Vox Box from Influenster

Hey everyone, I'm back from a long absence with a couple of reviews from my Mama Vox Box from Influenster! This was a fantastic box this round, not a single item I wouldn't use!


The first product I used from this box was Pond's Luminous Finish BB+. Influenster and Pond's were so kind to send this product in both Light and Medium. Medium was too dark for me, so I gave it to my mother whose skin has kept its summer tan better than I have.



Here we have swatches of both the light and medium, they look dark, but as you can see, they blend well into the skin.

At first I didn't get what the fuss was about, Pond's Luminous Finish BB+ seemed like your run of the mill tinted moisturizer, but after two weeks, I think I'm in love with this product. It doesn't feel dry or make my skin feel tight, while also not feeling oily. It has a nice matte finish, and, while it's not a full coverage foundation. I've decided I actually prefer the more natural look of this product. My only wish is that I had received this in the summer rather than the fall, when I needed less coverage. Alas, that was not meant to be, but I will definitely be searching out Pond's Luminous Finish BB+ next summer.

The next item I chose to try from my Influenster Mama Vox Box was the Dr Scholls For Her Comfort Insoles, and I had just the excuse to try them!


Do you see these? These are my favorite shoes, and as you can see, they are well loved. Do you have any idea how hard it is to find comfortable flats in a size 11 that don't cost a fortune? Anyway, these shoes are starting to become less than comfortable, but I needed them for a night out dancing, so in went the Dr Scholls For Her Comfort Insoles. By the end of the night, my heels felt great! Not sore at all. Unfortunately, the balls of my feet were still sore, but considering these insoles fit size 6-10, and I wear an 11, the balls of my feet did not sit in the right spot for the insoles to work. Oh well. If these come in a size 11, I'm buying a set for every pair of shoes I own.

That's it for today. I hope you all have enjoyed my reviews, and I'll see you next time!
