The Campus Voxbox

I got another wonderful Voxbox filled with awesome products, the Campus Voxbox.

I forgot the candy in the full shot ( I had already eaten it lol, with my boyfriend and I the candy is always the first thing to go)

As you can see from above the treats in this Voxbox were from Sour Punch. I got a pack of the Sour Punch Rainbow Straws which run around $1.29-$1.59 for a pack. They come with 4 flavors inside: Strawberry, Green Apple, Blue Raspberry and Lemon. All the flavors are really good, my boyfriend tried taking one of each and eating them all at the same time and thought they even tasted great all together. They were a great soft, chewy and sour treat. A little description: "Sour Punch Rainboy Straws are soft, chewy, straw-shaped candy that delievers the perfect balance of delicious fruit flavor and our signature sour crystal coating that will make your mouth pucker with delight. Sour Punch Rainbow Straws is first to deliver an assortment of all your favorite sour flavors in one package: Strawberry, Green Apple, Blue Raspberry and our brand new lemon straws, only available in this new assorted pack!".

My boyfriend and I really enjoyed the mix of flavors (Even the lemon which we could usually do without, I enjoy lemon but not too many people are dying to have lemon candy, wed usually rather have other flavors). I really liked the varieties of flavors, and my boyfriend was excited for the Green Apple, his favorite candy flavor. I definitly see us buying these in the future.

The other Sour Punch candy I recieved was the Sour Punch Punchies. These run from about $0.89-$1.29 for a package. A little description: "The wacky Sour Punch Punchies characters have come to life in a sour, chewy, soft shell candy. Each Mouth watering bite-size piece packs the perfect punch of fruity-sweet and sour. Sour Punch Punchies come in five delicious flavors including Strawberry, Blue Raspberry, Green Apple, Lemon and Tangerine, and each piece has the iconic, wacky PUN-CHI face! Eat them one at a time, or mix them together for a fruitacular candy experience!".

I thought the little faces on these were absolutly adorable and made them extra fun. Honestly though the "shell" on these gave them a really odd texture. It was almost like a jelly bean but something about it was a little different. My boyfriend and I weren't sure we liked them at first but after the first couple of chews you really get the flavors which are amazing. My boyfriend suprisingly said he loved them, despite the odd texture, and would buy them in the future. I think they are definilty worth a try, the flavor is amazing if you dont mind the texture.

I've had a little trouble finding these candies so far, I've only looked at Meijer (sort of like a classier walmart for those who dont live around this part of America) and Kroger (Grochery store). I'm assuming I'll be able to find them in Walgreens or CVS.

The next product I got in my Campus Voxbox was Jergens Natural Glow Instant Sun Sunless Tanning Mousse.

This sells for about $12.99. A little bit about the product: "Jergens Natural Glow Instant Sun Sunless Tanning Mousse uniquely works with your skin tone to mimic results from the natural sun. This airy, moisturizing mousse allows for a percise, even application that dries in just 60 seconds, taking you on vacation in an instant. Welcome to the #goldenlife".

This mousse comes out a little like foaming hand soap, not quite as moussey as I thought it would be. Its still nice and light and spreads on nice leaving a great looking tan, perfect for light skin. I recieved it in the darker of the 2 colors: Deep Bronze (the one I got) and I believe the other is called light bronze? This is pretty easy to find at CVS, Walgreens, I think Walmart and Meijer carry it as well. They have a primer scrub you can get and a special lotion thats supposed to help extend the tan. I just used regular scrub that I had before applying and I used my regular lotion (St. Ives) and it worked out great and lasted about a week.

The next product from my Voxbox is St. Ives Blemish Control Apricot Scrub (Sitting next to my cleanser)

This sells for about $3.99-$4.79. A little bit about this product: "St. Ives Blemish Control Apricot Scrub contains 100% natural exfoliants to deeply clean pores and brighten dull skin. The scrub helps stop breakouts before they occur, containing salicylic acid, which is known to help prevent blemishes from forming".

I honestly really like this product and have used a knock off before (I actually like this one better then the knock off). It smells lovely, fresh and fruity. My family never really buys any apricots so I honestly have no idea what they smell like so I cant tell you how much this smells like one or not, but regardless it does smell very good. It also leaves me skin SUPER smooth, soft and clean feeling. I just apply some of my cleanser, wash my face, then apply some of this, gently rub it all over my face and then rinse clean. I started with just using it once a day and now I use it every time I wash my face (usually twice a day but sometimes if Im outside sweating or workout it turns out to be 3 times a day). I honestly truely love this product, I thought I would like it but I didnt think I would like it as much as I do. My skin just feels so good after using it that I dont think I can go back to not using it.

Another product in my Voxbox is L'oreal Paris Advanced Straight System

(Photo: Mine)

I just got a little sample packet of the Shampoo, Pre-Conditioner and Conditioner. The Shampoo and
Conditioner (14.6 oz.) run around $4.99 each while the Treatments (Pre-conditioner) runs around $6.99. A little bit about the system: "Our first system with Kera-Tourmaline for up to 48 hours of long-lasting straight.* *Based on using complete system with heat styling tools".

I think any time you just get a one use sample it can be a little hard to really get an idea of how well it works. I thought the system smelled great (reminded me of summer for some reason which made me happy) and was pretty easy to use. Seemed to do a good job at relaxing my hair and keeping it straight all day long and all day the next day. I would definitly be interested in seeing how well this works using it over a period of time, its not that expensive so I might consider getting it and seeing (I dont really use heat on my hair, its super long and takes forever to dry and I just rarely take the time to do it because Im lazy lol).

Here's what my hair looked like at the end of the first day (I didn't do a great job at straightening it because I was short on time so it's not super straight)

The final product in my Campus Voxbox was one that I have tried before and love, Softlips Cube.

It runs for about $3.49. A little bit about the Softlips Cube: "Think outside the stick with Softlips Cube. Revolutionary 5-in-1 lip care combines an advanced formula with an innovative new cube-shaped package. Lips look radiant and feel softer, smoother and more hydrated. It is available in four delightful flavors: Pomegranate Blueberry, Fresh Mint, Vanilla Bean, and Strawberry".

I got the Pomegranate Blueberry, I think the Fresh Mint is what I got in my Deans List Voxbox. I havent gotten to try the Vanilla Bean or the Strawberry (Strawberry is the newest flavor, it was just coming out when I got my first Softlips Cube) yet. I really love my Softlips cube. Its adorable, doesnt roll of a table and keeps my lips super soft and smooth. The formula is nice and light and doesnt leave your lips feeling sticky or gunky.

Thank you Influenster, Sour Punch, Jergens, St. Ives, L'oreal Paris and Softlips for letting me try all these amazing products :)
