After a long hiatus I'M BACK!!!!
Been busier than ever. I have to performances and the #JollyVoxBox to tell you about in my blog... They go together because two of the products I used to get ready for tonight!
First a very important disclaimer: The items I received were complimentary items for testing purposes by Influenster.
I'll go over all the neat items in my Vox Box first then tell you all about my performance schedule for the rest of the year and next year.
First the #JollyVoxBox
I tried the NYC New York Color HD Color Trio Eye Shadow in Long Beach Sands.

The top picture is just bare face with small amount of foundation and powder.Second picture is with one eye done (My left eye). Big picture is with both eyes done with eye liner and mascara. I like the colors because they are neutral and match my skin tone well. Pigment isn't as good as I'd like so I had to use a lot of product to get the desired results. My biggest beef with the product is the applicator. It is WAY too small. It makes it hard to apply the color to the applicator and then harder to apply it to your eyes.
My solution for the applicator issue... Turn the orientation of the shadows and add a longer applicator. You will make a lot of women VERY happy!
Second product I tried? Rimmel London NEW Show Off Lip Laquer in Celestial. I like this product... Goes on smooth and very easy to use.. The brush is AWESOME. I don't know who came up with it but pat them on the back... really easy to apply because the brush is angled instead of round. Color wise... usually pale colors like this aren't my thing (Sopranos like their reds ya know) but it looked good... went on well... and I was very happy with the product.

Suggestions? 14 shades is kinda low.. More colors please!
On to the other products:
Puffs Ultra Soft & Strong to go Tissue Pack(Mine was PLUS Lotion). Nice strong tissue as advertised. No Nose burn because it is a soft tissue and the lotion makes it kind to winter burned faces! The To Go packaging is easy to use and I like the fact that the opening is at the top and not through the middle (Which never stayed shut for me ever). Perfect!
Ducklings Mini Rolls- I received the floral roll with white and blue. My kids love doing projects with this and these are perfect size to be an accent color to a larger roll when making Wallets and things. Super great Christmas gift for your young crafter!
Last but certainly NOT least...
Skinny Cow Candy by Nestle. These are AMAZING. They taste great and guess what? 3 pieces (1 Pouch) is just 130 Calaories.. so Great taste and they don't hurt your diet. So like the package says "Di-licious, Di-lightful, and Di-MINE"
Onto the perforamnces:
