Product Review: #XOVoxBox from Influenster

I was picked for another Influenster product box for review. This one was much nicer to me and wasn't heavily perfumed. YES! I was so happy about that. So here is my review of the box that I got for free:

So before the box came, I got a coupon to try a free bra and panty set from Adore Me for review. I had looked at other reviews and I found a couple that said to go up a cup size when ordering. I did so by ordering up a band size (for those that aren't aware, when you go up a band size but stay the same cup size, you actually go up a cup size). It fit so I do recommend going up that cup size. You would probably be okay with the same band width b/c the brand I use I often go down a size. I also sized up a panty size and it worked for me too. Some designs I will do that because I have an ass and they don't make some women's clothing with that in mind. If you don't then I think you'll be fine with your regular size. ;) 

They do have cute sets and I think that the quality is okay. It doesn't
feel high end, but it doesn't feel cheap either. It pretty much looks like it is worth the price of $39.95 so you do get your money's worth. I also liked the selection and thought the sets were cute and sexy. For those who are bigger than what most places like this offer, they go up to a G cup size for a few of their selections and are still stylish. 

If you would like to try it I have a link to use. You get your first set for $24.95! Just click HERE (my affiliate link) to go to Adore Me. For the VIP membership you do have to decline a month you don't want a product or you will be charged $39.95 to be used on a future purchase. You do get reminders and so far it has been no problem declining. You also get the 6th set free and special sales. There is another program that is pay as you go. You don't have to decline each month but you don't get the sales. Both programs have free unlimited exchanges and shipping.

The box came and I got Tide with Febreeze and the John Frieda collection for Beach Blonde. Well, I cannot use either but if the Tide with Febreeze comes in an unscented version I would use that one easily. I use unscented Tide and wouldn't mind the Febreeze since it tends to take other smells out. Also, with the John Frieda collection brunettes can use this one too! I can't since I am so sensitive to shampoos and other hair care products. If I could use it  I would use the sea salt spray to give my fine hair some texture. However, I know someone who will enjoy this small collection.

What was ironic about the collection is the Colgate products. I was about to buy a new toothbrush. Now I have something that will help me smile brighter. Probably a good thing since I do drink coffee. :) So far it works well and I do like the toothbrush.

The product I really loved was the SkinFix product. Not only is this needed in the cold weather we have been getting but it is scent free and it is gentle to my hands. I wish more companies would follow their example and at least make things scent free! I love that it is designed also for those that have eczema and dermatitis. I'm very sensitive to various products and I was cautious about it. For those that are sensitive or allergic it does contain beeswax, calendula, and chamomile which are a few ingredients you might need to be aware. You can get this product at Target.

I also got a Land's End coupon for $25 off a $100 purchase but sadly it isn't in the budget for now. You can also get this same bonus! All you have to do is put VOXLOVE for the promo code and spend at least $100.

This was an interesting mix for my voxbox. I think my favorite product was the Adore Me products. They do have some cute things there.

    1. If it doesn't work for me, I know people that it will work so it is fine as long as the scent isn't bad.

  5. I think you'll like the selection. Just know that most people said that they run small so do what I did... go up in size.

  6. I'll have to look up the Adore Me sets but I'm a weird size, I'm not sure about buying online. Well, I'm not a weird size, but I'm very weird about comfort. I mean, to the extreme.
    I'm not sure about getting a box, but I get the Sapphire Soul box and I think that's good for me!

  7. I don't really like buying clothes items online because of size issues and comfort - but that's great you liked the Adore Me products. Sounds like an interesting mix of items.

  12. I haven't gotten approved for a VoxBox in awhile, so think they didn't like my last review or something! lol Sorry you couldn't use everything in the box, but glad the SkinFix lotion worked for you!

  13. Love the bra! I'm like you, I like no scent or at most a very light scent. The cream sounds great too!
