I've gotten a few vox boxes before. I was in on the Dove campaign, but that just never showed up. It disappeared in the mail system. 

The latest campaign is the Staycation Vox Box. Look at all of that! I'm so excited to be part of this campaign. The only product that I'm not over the moon about, the press on nails. I'm not a fan of Press-Ons, but I'll still give them a try.

Crest Gum & Enamel & Repair Toothpaste - MSRP - $6.99

I am really excited about this. I suffer from gum issues, so I'm hoping that I enjoy this sample. Upon the first review, I don't see any visual improvements. Continued use will show how well this product works. It's a great sample size, I can get maybe a week or more out of it.

This product is available at Target. 

Score: 5/5
Good sample size and the full MSRP is not unreasonable if it works as claimed to help repair weakened enamel and reverse gingivitis. That's a big claim. We shall see.

SheaMoisture African Black Soap Bamboo Charcoal Gelee Moisturizer - MSRP: $12.99

I love the way this made my skin feel. I am blemish prone, so I wasn't sure how this was going to work out. I have not found a product to help with my odd skin.  The ingredients are African black soap, charcoal, and bamboo. I do wonder when this charcoal fad will be over.

I have to say it feels fantastic. The scent is very neutral and appealing. I washed my face and then put this moisturizer on. I have to say it felt amazing. Like my skin was drinking it in. Unfortunately, it was so heavy I felt like my skin was dripping. I end up swabbing a bit on. Next time, I won't use the whole packet when I try it.

Score: 4/5 - I would have preferred a small bottle over two small packets that make it difficult to get the product out.

completely SMOOTH Moisturizing No-Bump Shave Gel - MSRP - $4.99

I'm one of the strange people that don't have to shave her legs very often. The hair just doesn't grow.

I still love shave products though, and this is no exception. I love the shower fresh scent.

This is 2 fl. oz sample. Perfect for my travel kit. I will love having this in my bag on holiday.

Score: 5/5 Great size and great product. MSRP is also very reasonable.

Eva NYC Mane Magic 10-in-1 Primer - MSRP - $11.99 for 6oz


I'm no stranger to Eva products. I've gotten them before in various subscription boxes. I am a fan. 

Argan Oil. Sunflower Seed Oil. Yes, please and thank you! My hair loves both of those things. Just like my face, I have very temperamental hair. It's incredibly curly on its own but when flat ironed can be beautifully smooth but frizzy underneath.

This primer detangled my hair but didn't really do much for the frizz. I'm getting a blow out next week, so we'll see how this does at maintaining the style while I'm at MegaCon.

Score: 5/5 - I love Eva products but this one needs some further testing.

ImPress Press-On Manicure - MSRP: $7.99

I have pretty healthy nails, so I don't generally wear press-ons. I am going to give these to my mom and let her try them out. I'd have to really trim my nails back to make it work and I don't want to. lol.

The color is also more spring-like, and with fall coming I don't really want to think about spring when all I have is 8 months of winter weather to look forward to.
  
Score: 4/5 Great quality, just not a product I will use.  I love the sparkle accents.
