I haven't written in quite some time and it's not because I don't have anything to say it's because I can't formulate all my thoughts into concise posts. However, today I am diverging off course slightly. I don't do this often but it happens from time to time. Instead of speaking about anything mental health or higher education related; I'm going to discuss Influenster once again.
I've been a member of the, once exclusive, product review site for just under two years. First, I can't believe it's been that long. Second it's been a fun two years!
So what is Influenster? It's a community of people who are interested in new products or products from companies we love that need to be sampled/tested in a controlled group. Not everyone who is a member gets the opportunity for every VoxBox (product sample) and it can definitely be competitive. I have enjoyed being a member though.

| My first VoxBox! #RoseVoxBox |
Since joining I have received 5 VoxBoxes and 4 Virtual VoxBoxes. I feel very lucky to be able to have been chosen to participate in all the VoxBoxes that I was given. It's hard for me to choose a favorite box. I would say that so far the ones I have enjoyed the most were my Celestial Tea VoxBox where I was given the opportunity to try some new tea flavors. I love tea and I had always been a fan of Celestial Teas. I also used the coupon I received to purchase a whole box of the green tea with white tea. Let's be honest, you can't go wrong with giving people free food! I also completed the badge challenges and was active on other social media sites announcing their products so Celestial sent me some items to make my tea drinking more pleasurable - tea bag holder and a tea bag plate. Both have been used regularly.
The second VoxBox I enjoyed a lot was the one from Herbal Essence. I was able to preview their new Naked line and it's amazing! I know some people didn't care for the smell, but I actually liked it a lot. I haven't had a chance - due to having too much other hair care products right now - to buy Naked, but I can't wait! I do believe that I will be switching over once my previous stock is gone. It gave life back to my hair and didn't weight it down.
I know that there are some really great VoxBoxes and can be a little envious of the others who get them, but I've been happy with being a participant overall. So here is just a small reminder that if you are not familiar with Influenster, it's worth a shot to check it out! Especially if you like to review products and give feedback to companies about their products. Influenster has recently updated their website to create a Hub and added an app for iPhones. The Hub took some getting used to, but I actually like the new design. I don't have an iPhone so I have no experience with the app.
