The Best Kept Skin Care Secret
I was introduced to the Derma E brand through the Influenster VoxBox program back in August. I received a sample of the cleansing scrub to test and I also won a full size product of their award-winning Microdermabrasion Scrub. In the package they also included 10 samples of other popular products including several moisturizers, cleansers, and treatments. Of all the samples my favorite was the...

Birchbox Customer Service Experience
I signed up for Birchbox in September 2011 and have been a happy, loyal subscriber ever since. Today I received my January Birchbox and the first thing I tried was the Wichcraft Granola.

Blinc Mascara Review

Nail Polish Collection
I recently decided toexpand my nail polish collectionfeed my nail polish addiction. What started out as a couple colors has exploded to almost 50 - and who says I’m done?! I have a long wish list but I’m trying to keep my collection under control so my boyfriend doesn’t send me to NPAA (nail polish addicts anonymous)!
