Kidrobot: The Simpsons Series 2 figure unboxing!

Okay...so this isn't polish, this isn't makeup, this isn't Influenster, nor is this BZZAgent, but it is something else I highly enjoy. It's KIDROBOT! For those of you who don't know, I'm a huge nerd. I love anything to do with toys (I still collect Lego), video games, superheros, ect. This is something I just started collecting last year, and I already have a good amount of figures in my collection. Kidrobots' are collectible vinyl figurines that come in all sorts of styles, characters, things, ect. They come in a "blind box" which means you never know what you're going to get! They're so fun and addicting! The figures come with a pamphlet or card usually, and the box tells you how rare they are. (?/?? is super rare, and is usually a chase. A Chase is when a figure is really rare, people usually "chase" to get it. They could be priced as high as $300, and I actually have one that's worth $90, which I only paid $10 for the box, so if I wasn't a collector that'd be an $80 profit!) So now that you know a little bit about them, let's get into what I got!



This is the box for the figure I got. It's  the Simpsons Series 2 Mini Vinyl Figure (All of the boxes are the same...this is just what they look like). I have 1 already, and really enjoyed them. Actually, the one I got today is on this box :)



 

This is one of the sides of the box. You can see that it lists the characters, and the ratios of what you could possibly get. If you were to buy a case of these (which come with 20) you'd almost automatically get the ones listed 1/20...not always though. As you can see the very last one is both blacked out, and has a ratio of ?/?? so that's VERY rare! I have a feeling it might be Disco Stu... :) I'm a HUGE Zombie fan...I want the whole family as the zombies, but I doubt I could ever get them :'( As you can see those are some of the rarest of the group!

Yet again, here is the other side of the box. It lists more characters you could receive with their ratios. Now let's see what I got!

I got Herman! The one armed gun shop owner who once tied Officer Wiggum up with a ball gag and all! :) He's a crazy man! His ratio is 1/20, so he's very common. One of the ones you're almost guaranteed to get in a case. The little card that comes with him is actually a sticker, but I just keep them as a card for collecting purposes.

Here is a close up of Herman. You can see that these figures are very detailed, down to the painted badge on his vest, and the logo on his stump sleeve!

Here is Herman with my other Simpsons figure, Mariachi Lisa! :) She is a 1/25, and very top heavy, it took me a few tries to get her standing still like this! That's also her violin in front of her that fell over...whoops!

These figures are very fun to collect, and are a very cool addition to any collection, whether it be a Kidrobot collection, or simpsons.

They also have Family Guy, Futurama and South Park series as well as their own characters.

The Simpsons Blind Boxes retail for $9.99 and you can find them in Comic Shops or online at Amazon.com and Kidrobot.com

 

 

 

Influenster: SweetHeart Voxbox 2013 unboxing!

It's that time again, I was a lucky recipient of the newest Voxbox entitled "SweetHeart"! This is the Valentines and 1 of 2 February Voxboxes! I'm so happy and ecstatic that I was given this box because it had 2 things that I've been wanting to buy! If you don't know what Influenster is, refer back to my other post, here. So without further ado, let's dive into my box!



 

This is my beautiful box! It has four awesome products that I will get into in a bit, but first, I'll talk about the card.

In every box that you received from Influenster, you receive an awesome product card. It gives you a little message on the front, along with the box name, and on the back tells you what the product is, what it does, and how much it costs.

This card reads:

"Valentine's Day might only last 24 hours, but we're celebrating love the entire month of February. This is the first Voxbox of 2013 and lucky you- you're one of our Sweethearts! Roses, candy hearts, and now, Voxboxes are all standard when it comes to love..."

Then the rest reads about us having to check our box in, and share our reviews/experience with the products via social networking sites.

Now onto my box, I'll start with the least exciting and go up to my favorite!

The first thing that I received is this:

This is a SkinnyGirl Daily "Skinnygirl On-the-Go Bars" in the flavor Coco-Nut with Peanut Butter. The card reads:

"With only 180 calories per bar, you can enjoy Skinnygirl On-the-Go bars guilt-free. The bars are natural, kosher, and high in fiber. All bars now have MORE protein & MORE fiber, LESS sugar & FEWER carbs! These bars are the perfect indulgent treat for individuals looking to maintain a healthy lifestyle."

This will be the only product in this post that I'll do a review on (others will be separate posts) because there's not much to say about it. I'm not a health nut, but I do love my granola/nutrition bars. This was exceptionally tasty! I wasn't really excited to try it because these "Low Calorie" bars usually don't have much taste and have a weird texture, but the coconut and peanut butter really pulled the bar together. I highly enjoyed it. One thing I don't like is that this is priced at $9.99 for 5 bars. 5 BARS! That's nuts! I'm going to stick with my Quaker Granola bars :)

The next thing is:

Not Your Mother's Beach Babe Texturizing Sea Salt Spray. This was an optional product, you could have received this or the Not Your Mother's She's a Tease Volumizing Hair Spray. According to the card:

"Rock a sexy beach look even on those days you're not at the beach! Infused with natural Dead Sea salt and sea kelp, Beach Babe helps create voluminous texturized and wind-swept waves."

The full sized product will cost you $6.00 which is highly acceptable for an awesome product like this!

Second to the last product:

Secret Clinical Strength Stress Response Deodorant. This was one of the two products that I was on the verge of buying! I received a sample of Clinical Strength way back when it was first introduced (or re-introduced...not sure how old it actually is) and I fell in love, but what was keeping me from purchasing it was the price tag! $9.99 for a deodorant, in my opinion, is CRAZY! I've been seeing commercials for this all the time and it just keeps eating at me, I would have caved in and purchased it had Influenster not been generous to give it to me for FREE! So thank you again! This deodorant is in Serene Citrus! The card reads:

"Did you know there are three causes of sweat- heat, movement and stress? Stress sweat comes from a different gland, so it actually smells the worst. Secret Clinical Strength Stress Response in Serene Citrus is uniquely formulated to protect you from all three causes of sweat, especially stress sweat. It's proven 4x more effective at protecting against stress-induced underarm wetness than the wetness protection required of an ordinary antiperspirant."

This product retails anywhere from $7.99-$9.99 (an assumption of possible different sizes.)

Last but not least, my all time FAVORITE product I've ever received in anything that I've ever got in the world. (That was a little overly dramatic, but I still LOVE it!):

THE OLAY FRESH EFFECTS {VA-VA-VIVID!} POWERED CONTOUR CLEANSING SYSTEM!!!!! YAY! I've been raving about this product since I saw it in some magazines and the commercials on TV! (Seriously, even ask my mom!) I was verge of buying it, literally within the next week. Then I saw someone had posted the picture of their SweetHeart Voxbox, and I almost DIED! I was so excited to see I was actually getting this for FREE! THANK YOU INFLUENSTER! I know you're reading this ;) From the card about the Cleanser Brush itself:

"A vibrating, tri-tip facial cleansing brush that packs some punch! This battery-powered device reaches deep into contours, liberating skin from dirt, oil, and makeup in hard-to-reach places for a clean that is 400% better than basic cleaning."

The system retails for $12.99 and includes the brush an a mini cleanser.

The card also explains the cleanser, "Shine Shine Go Away!":

"All the purifying power of a mask with the fresh feel of a daily cleanser. This face wash gently lathers and reaches deep into skin to help reduce the appearance of pores."

The full sized Cleanser retails for $6.99 (full size of course!).

 

Overall I was PLEASANTLY surprised and happy with this box! Of course, I have no room to complain considering I got all of these products for absolutely nothing, just my time in testing and reviewing (which I live to do anyways! And yes...I said LIVE not Love, but I do that too :P)

I'd like to thank Influenster again for the opportunity to do this!

BZZAgent: Garnier Fructis Triple Nutrition Miracle Dry Oil Campaign 2013

Here is another post about the awesome program that is known as BZZAgent! If you haven't read my other post, BZZAgent is an awesome site that allows you to get put into “Campaigns” and test products, that are totally free, tell others about them (by giving samples they send, or coupons!) and then review them (and of course I’m all about reviewing items). This is my fourth Campaign (previously had Afrin Nasal Spray, Neutrogena Norweigan Hand Creme and Glade Expressions). The site will be linked below if you are interested.

This campaign was pretty simple, I got a Full Sized bottle of Garnier Fructis Triple Nutrition Miracle Dry Oil and a BZZGuide! This product will run you about $5.99, but it's well worth it for more ways than one. I will get into that later.



 

This is what I received in my box, obviously very simple. Triple Nutrition Miracle Dry Oil is a breakthrough innovation that is used not only for hair, but for skin as well! You can use this Dry Oil to add a nice shine to your hair, and leave it silky smooth, but you can also use this for dry hands, or dry spots on your face to leave your skin nice and moisturized and hydrate! Taking a look in the BZZGuide, they write that:

• This product blends weightless olive, avocado and shea oils to transform dry hair and skin.


• It's made for everyday use on hair, body and face.


• Instantly absorbs in a touch with no oily residue.


• Can be used on dry or damp hair.


• Available at grocery, drugstores and mass retailers (like Walmart and Target) for a suggested price of $5.99.

Breaking down the product from it's three main ingridients, the BZZGuide tells us that:

• Olive Oil: Moisturizes, protects and replenishes dry hair, improving it's strength and elasticity. Your face and body will benefit from the antioxidants in it that protect skin against damage.


• Avocado Oil: Loaded with Vitamin E, it protects against dryness while locking in color and moisture to keep hair looking radiant and soft. Avocado's natural hydrating abilities promote soft and supple skin as well.


• Shea Oil: Known for having unique healing properties, shea oil rejuvenates damaged hair and leaves it with a healthy shine. It's also a good moisturizer that helps improve elasticity in skin.

Now that I've given you some good insight, I'm going to go into what this product has personally done for me.

Okay, now I'm a Garnier Fructis lover. I love almost everything that Garnier Fructis makes. This product is awesome, but the hair part is just not working for me.

I live in New England (Massachusetts to be exact) and it's very raw and dry in the winter. Usually it's not bad, but this year we've received a blizzard and multiple larger snow storms, so my skin has been drying out. This product works PERFECTLY for my skin! Literally, it makes my hands so soft and it's made the dryness and peeling go away, so I love the product for that. I would probably end up buying it after this runs out just for that fact. I can put the oil on my hands, rub it in, and instantly start to use my electronics without it leaving a greasy residue on the screens or keyboards.

My hair, however, does not like it. I used it twice so far on my hair. Once dry, once wet, and it didn't really work either time. I liked it more on my wet hair than I did dry. When I sprayed it lightly on dry hair, it made it look super greasy and oily. I didn't like looking like I hadn't washed my hair in weeks. I did like how soft it made my hair though. That was an absolute plus. The second time, I sprayed it on my wet/damp hair. I liked that a lot better than spraying it on my dry hair, but it still made my hair look greasy. It parted a lot less than putting it on dry, and still managed to make my hair soft. I may still use it on my hair once in a while to get the silkyness, but most certainly not before I go out.

I have not used it on my face yet, but plan on doing so. I usually have a combination face (cheeks and forehead get oily, but inbetween eyebrows gets very dry) so I will be just dabbing it on my problem areas.

Overall I feel that this product is awesome, but not for my hair, mostly for what it does for my skin.

This product has NOT changed my view on Garnier Fructis, I still love it all the same.

Pomegranate Nail Lacquer- "Fairy Berry"/"Fit for a Prince" review!!

I received some AWESOME samples in the mail about a week ago to review from one of my FAVORITE indie polish makers, Pomegranate Nail Lacquer. This brand is literally unbelievable. I received two colors from their new collection entitled "Royal Fairy Tale". These colors are absolutely fantastically beautiful and pretty cheap as well! These polishes went on sale February 8th. I'm a little late on this because I was testing out another product for review. I've been receiving Pomegranate samples for a few collections, but this is my FIRST with my blog! So now they ALL will be reviewed on here.

Royal Fairy Tale comes with 14 new shades, in a variety of finishes. A quick run through of the available colors (NOT including Fairy Berry and Fit for a Prince, see review for them):

Palace Gardens: An enchanting Emerald green creme with shimmer.

The Queen's Jewels: A medley of diamond, ruby, emerald and sapphire glitter in a clear base.

Storm the Castle: A deep, cloudy teal-grey jelly.

Damsel: A taupe-nude creme with shimmer.

True Love's Kiss: A silvery pink polish with a foil finish.

Book of Spells: A rich bronze creme.

Broken Curse: A myriad of purple and blue micro glitter in a clear base.

Prince Charmer: A rich lavender-grey creme.

Pennywisher: A rose gold polish with a foil finish.

Royal Brat: A bright lime green jelly.

Frolicker: A merry marigold-yellow creme.

And lastly,

Rose Garden Romance: A rich red creme.

PHEW! Now all of these are available for sale RIGHT NOW (for the low price of $8.50 each) on Pomegranate Lacquer's website which will be listed below! Now onto the colors I got!:

On the left is Fit for a Prince and the right is Fairy Berry. Holy gorgeous, right? These two are colors that I have never seen before. You may be thinking, "Mishelle, the blue is fairly common." Well I disagree! I'm a huge blue lover (as I type this I have a blue shirt, blue sweatpants, blue polish, a blue class ring, ect. on.) and if I would have seen this anywhere I would have snagged it up. But alas, I haven't seen it anywhere. Anyways, the one thing I was kind of disappointed in was that the bottle has changed. I really enjoyed the old square bottle and the simple logo/design. I'm hoping the change was just for this collection, but if not it doesn't affect the formula, so it will not dissuade me from purchasing.



Fit for a Prince is a regal Monaco blue creme, as described by the company. I have to be completely honest, I had to look up what Monaco actually was, and I'm still not quite sure. I typed in Monaco, and it said it was a place (in pictures, it shows an ocean in which the color looks JUST like this) but while typing in Monaco blue, there was a car that popped up in this exact same color. Either way, the blue is BEAUTIFUL! The formula is thick, even when there is not a lot of polish on the brush. I wiped the brush off on the side of the bottle like I normally do before painting, and it still almost flooded the nail.

This is with 1 coat! ONE COAT! It's outrageously opaque, which is awesome. A completely opaque nail polish is a girls best friend, less coats means less dry time and more manicures! The thick formula works to the advantage of not needing a lot of coats, so it's almost a good thing it's thick!



 

Now one thing I REALLY love about Pomegranate Nail Lacquer's polish is that they dry SUPER fast! Literally, I applied this, took pictures, uploaded them to my computer, and by the time I was done that (10 minutes), they were completely dried. This polish applies very smoothly, and did not come off streaky at any time during application. The color, to me, is almost like an electric navy blue. It has a little hint of purple undertone in real life.



Fairy Berry is a sparkling magenta polish with silver shimmer. I'm obsessed with this polish. It's SO pretty both in bottle and on the nail. The formula for Fairy Berry is perfect. It's not thick, but it's not thin either, it's literally just right.



 

Like Fit for a Prince, this polish is opaque! This was 1 coat. While you could use 1 coat, I would do 2 with this polish just as a safe measure.  This polish also dries even FASTER than the other! I was completely surprised. (This is showing blue on my nail, but I promise you, there is no blue in this color!)



 

This is a really nice plum purple that has beautiful silver shimmer and purple micro glitter. For a micro glitter polish, this applied perfectly. It was not streaky, and was not hard to apply/spread. I'm loving the color and the effect so much! While taking the polish off, I noticed if you lightly wiped a nail polish remover dipped cotton ball over it, it creates an AWESOME silver color with some purple in it. If you were to stop there, put a top coat on, you could have a whole other color! I thought that was pretty cool. Once again, there is NO blue in this polish, I'm not sure where it's showing up from.

Here is a better picture of it...

 

You can purchase any color from this collection and others at Pomegranatelacquer.com

 

 

 

Incoco Nail Strips Review and Swatch!

I have 5 beginning words. I'm. In. Love. With. Incoco. That's all I want to say, literally. I'm in love with them! I can't help it, their product is just beyond amazing. Having used Sally Hansen Salon Effects, I was going into this experience with a very skeptical mind. I was very nervous because the Sally Hansen Salon Effects are ridiculously terrible (coming from a HUGE SH fan...). I've been avoiding any sort of nail polish strips or stickers until I got sent my lovely package. Even then I was scared of actually applying them because I didn't want to mess them up because of the terrible experience I've had with Sally Hansen. But these were surprisingly very easy to put on! The set I used was Fairy Tale Ending which was the awesomely beautiful, blinged out pink glitter applique.

I love the nudeish, very soft effect that it has on my nails with my skin tone. I really think these would look GORGEOUS on a darker skin tone as well. This picture was taken at 3 days wearing them, almost 4 days, and they're still going super strong. The tips are a little chipped (partly due to the fact some of them I accidently filed off too short during application) Like I said, I'm not used to the process of putting these types of things on, so I'll need to get the hang of it. I feel that they're such high quality and really can withstand any amount of work or everyday wear and tear. The fact that they can be positioned, and if you mess up, you can reposition them, is amazing, because that's one of the things that frustrates me with nail stickers or appliques is that I can't get it on completely straight first try. The one problem I'm having is that it seems to be lifting up toward my cuticles (even though they're not on my skin) but I've heard a little top coat can fix that problem.

I'm really super in love with this design and I can't stop looking at my nails. I will be wearing these until they get worn out, like I said, it's day 3 (almost 4) and they're going strong! I can't wait to wear the other designs! I even saved the extras that I didn't use so I could size them up as accent nails for different colors of polish!

I honestly think that these are well worth the $10 that they cost, and urge any nail polish fanatic to go out and get them!

 

 

Incoco Nail Polish Strips!

I was sent a generous package a week ago (I'm a little late on the post, because I lost my internet...) from Incoco which included 7 PACKAGES OF NAIL POLISH STRIPS! I was so estatic and blessed with the fact that they were so kind to send me them to try and review. They had sent me 3 of their new Valentines collection, and a set of polish strips from the new hit series GIRLS on HBO which is my honest to God FAVORITE SHOW IN THE ENTIRE WORLD. The set of Girls strips they had sent me are an exclusive that are NOT sold to the general public. The only way you could get your paws on them where to win from their Facebook Contests, so I'm beyond grateful to have gotten them. Now seeings as I have 7 sets, I will be posting single blogs with the pictures of the strips in action, because I'd like to wear them and experience each one rather than put them on, take a picture, and take them off. I don't want to waste them. My first post will be later this week showing off one of the Valentines Day designs.

Incoco Nail Polish Strips are REAL nail polish! They're not just stickers, or decals, they are made with 100% real polish. There is absolutely NO drying time, smudges, or streaks so they're perfect to put on and go, especially if you're going to a special event and want a fresh manicure! The prices on these strips are very reasonable ($10), and I've only heard great reviews on them. I can't wait to personally try them out! Each pack comes with 2 sheets of 8 strips, but some say they're big enough to do both of your hands with one sheet if done carefully...the first time I try it, I won't be doing that, I will be using them as intended.

From the Valentines 2013 Collection, Fairy Tale Ending  (which is on sale right now!):



 

Pretty In Pink. Sorry that my camera kept catching the glare of my room (which is aqua, orange and yellow mind you...) so it looks sort of yellowish, but I promise you, this is a beautiful dark pink that has black polka dots on it, pretty basic, but gorgeous at the same time!





Cross My Heart. This is a unique pattern that is an off white color for the base, with little purple xo's and pink hearts. This design is literally amazing, and at first I didn't realize the little hearts. I think this is the set I'm going to wear on Valentines day :) The little xo's and hearts are so put together that it gives the whole strip this light pink appearance, but if you look closely you can see that the base color actually isn't pink, it's the off white color.



Lastly we have Fairy Tale Ending which is coincidentally the name of the entire Valentines Day collection! I'm so in love with this design! It's completely covered in a light pink glitter with giant purply pink circle confetti thrown on top. How cute is this? I love the sparkle of this design, it really adds a beautiful bling to valentines day.

From the exclusive Girls collection:



 



Jessa. This is an AWESOME turquoise design! This reminds me of the cracked turquoise jewelry that you can find almost anywhere. It's such a neat, unique design made for a unique character. Jessa is a bohemian/indie styled girl who loves to travel the world, and I find that this fits her almost perfectly.





Marnie. Marnie's strip is a classic tan plaid design. It reminds me of a watered down Burberry plaid. Marnie is Hannah's best friend, and a "very serious" person, an art assistant, and is VERY stylish! She is one of my favorite characters on here, besides Hannah of course, and Shoshanna.



Shoshanna. Her design is a beautiful baby pink with black bows all over it. It's AWESOME and one of my favorite designs. Shoshanna is Jessa's cousin. She's one of the best characters, and to me almost seems a little bipolar. She is crazy, but it's awesome. She's very bubbly and very girly, so these fit her personality perfectly.



Last but not least we have the best design for the best character, Hannah. Oh. My. God. How cool is this? WOOD! I would LOVE to have a million sets of these. Anyways, Hannah is the main character of the show. She's an aspiring writer, and she's just the funniest, most sarcastic, witty, clever person in existence. I'm not sure the reasoning behind the wood for Hannah, but it just fits. It's totally her, and I don't know why.

 

I can't wait to try these suckers out, so stay tuned for other posts with "swatches" and possibly tutorial of how to put them on!

BZZAgent: Glade Expressions Campaign 2013

Well...I finally have my internet back (yay!) so I have a few posts coming within the next couple days. This is the first of many, and it's about my new BZZAgent Campaign for Glade Expressions! For those of you who don't know, BZZAgent is an awesome site that allows you to get put into "Campaigns" and test products, that are totally free, tell others about them (by giving samples they send, or coupons!) and then review them (and of course I'm all about reviewing items). This is my third Campaign (previously had Afrin Nasal Spray and Neutrogena Norweigan Hand Creme) but my first with my new blog! So from now on I will also be writing about my BZZAgent Campaigns as well. I will have a link below if you'd like to sign up for this awesome site! :)

So in the mail a few days ago, after being accepted into their new Glade Expressions Campaign I received a nice envelope from BZZAgent with some coupons for Glade products. These products being the Glade Expressions Fragrance Mist and the Glade Expressions Oil Diffuser. In the coupon booklet (which I tore apart the minute I got it, so there will be no pictures) were 2 coupons for free products. 1 being the Fragrance Mist and the other being the Oil Diffuser. There were also 20 MORE coupons, 10 for $2.00 off 1 Fragrance Mist, making them about $.98 a piece, and 10 for $4.00 off 1 Oil Diffuser, making them about $1.98 a piece, still a STEAL!

Anyways, the two products I received for FREE were:



 

Of course, as you can see for the Oil Diffuser I picked up Pineapple & Mangosteen (whatever that is...) and for the Fragrance Mist I picked up, from their new Spring collection, Starlit Evening.

The Starlit Evening spray is literally the best scent I've ever smelled in my whole entire life. I'm so confused on how something can smell THAT good. I picked this up at my local Walmart, and was pleasantly surprised to see that they already had the spring collection out. Where this is only a limited edition scent, I've planned on using a few of the coupons I haven't given out to go pick a few more up. At $.98 can you beat it (Regularly $2.98)? According to the Glade website:

"Relish a walk under the stars in the warm evening air. This vibrant blend of green hyacinth, ylang ylang, and cedarwood is simply intoxicating."

And intoxicating it is...I found myself sitting in my room last night, watching TV and just sniffing the nozzle. Not only does this spray smell amazing, but it lasts a long time as well. One swift motion spray, and my room smelled like bliss the whole night. I've always been a huge fan of Glade products and this is the reasoning why. They make high quality products, that smell divine, for cheap! It's a win, win, win. The cool thing about this too (that I stupidly didn't take a picture of) is that if you screw off the little black botton on the spray, you can just buy refills and put them in! The refills generally run about $1.98. So once the fragrance runs out, just pop out the can, and throw it away, and keep the plastic holder as a reusable sprayer!



 

This scent, I'm not too pleased about. I honestly do NOT like Pineapple and don't even know what Mangosteen is!?...but this is the only scent I could find after looking in 3 different stores. This whole product just has kind of turned me off. I've had it out of the box and on my counter for almost 2 days now, and it's already losing it's scent. I'm not sure if it's just this one, or if the other oil diffusers act that way as well, but it's almost like the smell isn't strong enough, it's just faintly there. And at $5.98 regular price, I would NOT be pleased to purchase it and have it not work for the 30 days guaranteed. From Glade:

"Take a daily trip to the tropics with the alluring fragrance of juicy pineapple and a hint of tangy mangosteen, ripe coconut and blossoming passionflower."

One thing I will say, is that being someone who doesn't like Pineapple, I personally don't find this to be an overbearing pineappley scent. I think all of the fragrances tie in together very well. I am a huge coconut fan, and like the tropical aspect it adds to it. This does make me want to go on vacation...but that's besides the point. I honestly just wish it would be a stronger scent, or fill more of an area with it's scent.

I'd like to give a special thank you to BZZAgent for allowing me to try these products in my house and to Glade for being apart of it all! :)
