Influenster and the #Voxbox: #LiveRadiantly #StIvesSkin

Hello Lovelies!

So a few weeks ago, influenster, sent me their St. Ives Live Radiantly #Voxbox!



So as you can see, in this #Voxbox, I received the Pink Lemon & Mandarin Exfoliating Body Wash, the Oatmeal Scrub & Mask, as well as the Pear Nectar & Soy Body lotion. First of all, I want to say, St. Ives has come a long way! These products are pretty amazing. By far, the body wash and the face scrub were my faves! But let me do this the right way and tell you about each one:

Pink Lemon & Mandarin Exofoliating Body Wash: This stuff smells AMAZING! It such a bright and clean smell and it lathers really well. I thought with it being an exfoliator that it would be too grainy or harsh, but I was wrong. The beads actually are not too big or rough and they make your skin feel refreshed. It is not drying at all and I have noticed that my skin is a lot smoother, and not as scaly in this cold weather. I would definitely repurchase again!

Pear Nectar & Soy Body Lotion: This product was just meh to me! I mean, it smells okay, if you like fruity scents, and it gets the job done, but I personally do not care for it as a lotion in the winter time. I could see liking it better in the spring/summer months. It's a light lotion and initially feels kind of sticky, but that feeling doesn't last. It absorbs well into the skin, and like I said, it's okay. In St. Ives defense though, I prefer thicker, creamier lotions. It's just my preference, so no diss to them! I think many of you may love this lotion because it is effective, just not my preference for a lotion.

Oatmeal Scrub & Mask: Now this I really liked! If you are a fan of their Apricot Scrub, then I think you will fare well with his. I actually prefer this over the Apricot Scrub because I feel like it is creamier, not as rough, and it has a lighter scent. It smells amazing and does a good job with lightly exfoliating the face, without making it too dry. You will have to tone and moisturize after using it, but I think you and your face will be delighted by this product. I notice that my skin looks smother and my makeup looks better on my skin since using this product. This has officially replaced my Apricot Scrub!


So there you have it lovelies! My first #Voxbox was an enjoyable experience and I look forward to receiving more boxes so that I can share my experience with you!
