Sour Punch!

Just a picture of the amazing Rainbow Sour Punch Straws. Sorry I couldn't take a pic myself, but I ate them all up before I could!

Influenster Campus VoxBox in Detail: St. Ives Blemish Control Apricot Scrub

A separate post just for St. Ives Blemish Control Apricot Scrub...as per request of Influenster.  We had never heard of this brand before trying it in the Influenster Campus VoxBox. My husband has mainly been using the Apricot Scrub as luckily I don't have much acne at the moment. He, on the other hand, is less fortunate in the acne department. This review is mainly coming from his opinions on the Scrub. What I have noticed is that acne has mainly centered in his T-zone now and is off the checks and chin area. Definitely a huge improvement! The acne is also not bright red, but a pinkish color (less inflamed) so it's certainly less noticeable. I personally did not like the smell. It did not smell sweet to me, which I prefer.

My husband says the Scrub is really good because "it helps his face and makes his face smell nice." It's easy to use and you don't have to use much for one wash. He would recommend the product to people who need help clearing up their acne.

Basically, it works well for us!

Wow was this VoxBox great! Now, you know I'm only going to tell you honest reviews. This VoxBox was a real winner and for one main reason - Sour Punch! The VoxBox included Rainbow Sour Punch straws and little balls of SourPunchnes called Punchies. The rainbow straws were delicious. There were 5 yummy sour flavors. Basically there's the sour powder on the outside of the straw and the straw itself is sweet. My absolutely favorite candy ever (even before I got this VoxBox)!!! They're also kosher-certified, by Star-K, so you know there's no pork gelatin in there for anyone that may be concerned about that. The Punchies were also quite tasty. They were hard on the outside and chewy in the center. Overall, very good, but not as much deliciousness as the SourPunch Straws.

As for other items in the VoxBox, I received, a SoftLips Cube, JERGENS® Natural Glow® Instant Sun Tanning Mousse, a sample of L'Oreal Paris Advanced Straightening System, and St. Ives Blemish Control Apricot Scrub.

The SoftLips Cube is a lip balm that comes in a cube rather than a traditional tube. It was a peppermint flavor (white in color). It helped my lips to be less chapped, but stung them quite a bit. I think it was the flavor that ended up hurting my lips. Perhaps a less harsh flavor would be better.

I've yet to use the L'Oreal Paris Sample. Usually L'Oreal has great smelling products. I personally prefer Dove, though, as it's gentler on the skin. Due to eczema, I've been recommended to only use Dove products as they moisturize the skin best, so I don't venture outside the brand often.

Haven't used the Tanning Mousse as I'm ok with being super white (and I mean I'm pale!). As for the Apricot Scrub, more to come on that soon! Look for a new post all about that Apricot Scrub.

So overall, you really have to try Sour Punch Straws! Seriously, though! They aren't sold a lot of places, but they are available at Walmart. Any flavor is great, but the Rainbow one is amazing due to so many different flavors.
