Product Review: Goody Simple Styles Spin Pin
Steps:
1. Gather your hair at the nape of your neck (no ponytail holder needed)
2. Twist your hair into a tight bun and tuck in the ends
3. Spin one pin in from the top and the other from the base, taking care not to interlock pins.
Review:
So, I have thick hair and it was a little hard to get the pin in and out. It did not hold very well, but I don't know if it was because I did not put t in right [ a big possibility ] or if it was because there was just too much hair to hold.
At the end of it all I had the messy bun look, and I liked it. I will just need to keep at it until I get it in right. Overall, great product.
RECOMMEND?: YES

Review:
When it comes to putting stuff on my face, I am very skeptical. I tried the two products above and must say they are great. After I used the cleansing lotion I seen a difference in my skin. It looked brighter and smooth. At night I used the night cream and I works great, even in the morning my skin looked like I just put the cream on.
Since I got the products I have been using them every night and love it.
RECOMMEND?: Yes

Product Review: LypSyl Intense Protection LypMoisturizer @Influenster #naturalsvoxbox
Created with pure Swedish beeswax, organic shea butter and vitamins A and E for long-lasting, deep-penetrating moisture and lip care protection. LypSyl Intense Protection LypMoisturizer™ helps moisturize, soften and protect your lips naturally. The unique one-hand slide allows for quick application. And, the oversize application tip ensures this ultra- light formula spreads evenly for better lip coverage. • Fresh minty flavor.
• Not tested on animals!
Review:
I always liked LypSyl since the first time I tried it, so when it showed up in my VoxBox I was so excited. It moisturizes the lips and keeps them protected for hours. I didn't have to reapply often and even when I drink something the lip balm was still there.
It works instantly. As you can see in the photos below. After the lip balm has been applied they already look smoother and healthier.
I will definitely continue to buy.

Product Review: EBOOST @Influenster #naturalsvoxbox
EBOOST is a boost that does more. It’s a mood boost, focus boost, immunity boost, natural boost, a no-crash boost.
EBOOST uses real ingredients, stuff you’ve heard of like Vitamin C, Vitamin D, Green Tea, Vitamin B-12 and Folic Acid. And the stuff you might not have heard of: Quercetin, 5-HTP, Resveratrol, Huperzine-A — it’s all good too. What could be sweeter than that? Well, we even sweeten our product with Stevia, a plant, not a chemical.
What started as a celebrity secret for A-Listers like Madonna, Shakira, Oprah Winfrey and Amar’e Stoudemire is now a necessity for the multi-tasking generation. We took the time to formulate a multi-purpose product that really works so you don’t have to waste time with mediocre products that sort of work.
Get your boost with the convenience of a shot, or an easy-to-mix powder packet in four delicious flavors: Super Berry, Orange, Pink Lemonade and Acai Pomegranate. No matter how you boost, you’re sure to feel great. All day, every day.
You can find EBOOST at Whole Foods Market, Vitamin Shoppe, Duane Reade, Equinox, 24h Fitness, local gourmet stores and natural markets, and at www.eboost.com.
Review: I love the orange taste and that it is not loaded up with sugar. There wasn't a crash and the boost lasted for a long time. You can really feel it. I like that it is also an immunity boost as well.
It's your all in one.

Product Review: UNREAL(TM) CANDY
As a BzzAgent, I recently had the ooportunity to try some of the new UNREAL(TM) Candy. UNREAL candy has no artificials, no corn syrup, and no hydrogenated oils.
Right now, they have 5 different kinds of candy:
UN 5 - Chocolate caramel nougat bar
UN 8 - Chocolate caramel peanuts nougat bar
UN 41 - Chocolate candy shell
UN 54 - Chocolate candy shell peanuts
UN 77 - Chocolate peanut butter cups
I was able to try UN 5, UN 8, and UN 77. I personally thought that UN 77 tasted better than the reese's. The chocolate caramel nougat and chocolate caramel peanuts nougat bars were really good as well. The taste is similar to the real thing.
The only problem was finding them at the store.
