Boots No7 Protect & Perfect ADVANCED Serums

This serum is great for those who have very dry skin. It is very hydrating and goes on smoothly. The serum feels rich without being heavy. If you use it around the eyes it does not cause puffiness like some other heavier creams might. Great for day or night application and also makes a smooth base for your foundation!

This product was sent to me for review by Influenster. All opinions are my own.

Influenster Frosty VoxBox 2014-2015 Review

First, the Celestial Seasonings Candy Cane Lane Decaf Green Tea. It has a peppermint laced with vanilla taste that I did not particularly enjoy. However, if you like these flavors and want the restive effects of green tea, this might be the warm winter drink for you. 

The EcoTools Full Volume Styler is a well constructed hairbrush but it is not the right design for my medium length spiral curl hair. It would only work well for me if I was straightening my hair. Thus, I gave it to my cousin who has beautiful, long, thick, straight hair and she loves it.

The No7 Protect & Perfect Intense Advanced Serum by Boots Beauty is a lightweight facial serum with an almost powdery finish. It made my skin feel smooth after a single use. They claim that the product can "reduce the appearance of deep lines & wrinkles, for younger looking skin in two weeks." While that may be true, I had an insufficient sample size to evaluate those claims.

I am not a huge fan of licorice so I decided to try and use my sample of Red Vines Fruit Vine Bites in a recipe. I hoped that I could impart the strong cherry flavor without the strange consistency of licorice. Well, mission accomplish with the "Chocolate Cherry Cupcakes with Red Licorice Filling and Marshmallow Frosting." The recipe for these is available on the Food Network website...but be forewarned, they are VERY cherry and EXTREMELY sweet.  

The Rimmel Scandaleyes Waterproof Kohl Kajal Eyeliner has intense color and stays in place all day. It was a little clumpy to apply but that did not matter too much because I usually smudge out my liner to soften the look.

The eyeliner was so waterproof that it bested the Rimmel Gentle Eye Make up Remover. The product removed my eyeshadow well but barely touched the liner. I needed to switch back to my regular makeup remover to avoid irritating my eyes.

The McCormick Gourmet Thyme was a big hit and excellent in "Garlic and Thyme Roasted Potatoes." The flavor was wonderful and the quality and quantity of this dried herb would certainly be worth the $4.79 list price.

My favorite product in the VoxBox was the NYC Expert Last Lip Color in Sugar Plum. The color is so versatile and the matte finish is appropriate for many looks. It is mildly moisturizing and has great staying power.

This was really nicely done! Check it out! Can't wait to try it out for myself.

Things I know about: Boots Botanics Ionic Clay Mask

I lived in London in high school and fell in LOVE with Boots.  Imagine my surprise when I open my Influenster #JAdoreVoxBox and there is a BOOTS product inside!

I'm partial, I get it. But here's the thing. I've been looking for a mask, an easy mask, that I can do once a week or so that will pull out the impurities and will make my skin feel smoother without drying it out.  This might be the one for me!

It's not thick or bulky like other masks and so I know that the tube will go a long way. It's also REALLY fast drying so mess is minimal.  It has this tightening feeling when it dries that I find really refreshing - that's probably weird right? 

  Anyhow. The hashtag is #PowerofPlants so naturally I had to investigate. One of the main ingredients is Willowbark. Turns out willowbark is quite the nugget of the herb world. It's been used back to Ancient greek times for stomachaches, headaches, and back pain. It has great anti-inflammatory properties and that's what makes it great for your skin. It's great for rosacea, acne, wrinkles. Oh, and it was also used in the development of asprin.  Power of Plants indeed.

I won't be stopping with this mask. I love the idea of a skincare company working with Kew Gardens and botanists to look into the natural healing and healthy options that plants can offer us.  You can find more about this partnership here: http://www.boots.com/en/Botanics-and-the-Royal-Botanic-Garden-Kew_1276608/ 

There's info there about how they're becoming more eco-sustainable in regards to packaging etc. and that's just a bonus.

I received these products complimentary from Influenster for testing purposes.
