Aveeno Active Naturals VoxBox
First off, I'm a little behind on posting this because I received this VoxBox around a week or so ago. I've had a hectic couple of months (try year) and I'm just now getting back into the groove of things. Let's not talk about my life and get on with what Influenster sent me.
I was picked to try out their targeted tone corrector. On the box it says that it helps fade the look of dark spots and uneven skin tone to reveal softer, smoother, and more radiant skin. That all sounds nice, but I have a hard time believing such claims from products. I tend to lean to more organic, natural skin care items because commercial ones like Aveeno never works.
I'm not saying that Aveeno is bad and won't work for everyone, but it doesn't work for me. I plan to make a list of things that I use or plan to use in the future for those like me who like DIY skin care.
Here are the ingredients for those of you who are curious and might be looking to buy this product. Enjoy!
I received this product complimentary from Influenster for testing purposes.

Six Ways to Wake Up Beautiful

We all
scoff at those characters in movies who wake up looking gorgeous in every
scene. We laugh at the fact that no one could possibly wake up looking so
flawless, while secretly feeling envious. However much of a naysayer you claim
to be, would you take the steps necessary to ensure you look your best upon
waking up in the morning? Here are a collection of nighttime tips that will get
you looking radiant right from the get-go.
1.
Use
Teabags Before Bed
A common
detractor from your natural morning beauty is probably the pesky bags that form
under your eyes. A quick way to reduce this problem is placing cold
water-soaked tea bags on your eyelids at night. You’ll need to leave them on
between ten and fifteen minutes, but this should be long enough to reduce any
swelling and moisten up your skin. You’ll notice a difference in the morning
after each tea bag application.
2.
Use
Castor Oil on Lashes
Before
you go to bed, use a Q-tip to coat your eyelashes in castor oil. It will
require habitual application over a period of weeks, but this will help your
lashes grow thick and long naturally. In the meantime, you’ll awake with a
glossy shine to your lashes that will make a big statement even without makeup.
3.
Sleep
with Curlers
It’s
difficult to wake up with a ready-to-go hairdo, let alone a hairdo that isn’t
tangled and frizzy from all-night pillow contact. Try sleeping with curlers in
your hair to keep it tight, out of the way, and looking beautiful by the time
morning comes. You can use traditional rolling curlers, the more modern
headband curling technique, or even just simple braids to hold your hair in place
until you can let out its natural waves in the morning.
4.
Put
Socks on Your Hands
If you
feel self-conscious about your dry hands, try deep-conditioning them over
night. Slather your hands in lotion, then place cotton socks over them (held
tight by hair elastics at the wrist). This direct contact with lotion will
infuse your skin with moisture overnight, leaving your hands baby smooth by the
time you wake up.
5.
Get
Permanent Makeup Done
This is
a more expensive and invasive option, but it’s the perfect way to achieve daily
natural beauty. You can have your eye, lip, and scar cover-up makeup done
subtly enough that your best features are lightly enhanced, allowing you the
freedom to add onto it whenever you please.
6.
Whiten
Your Teeth
There
are plenty of affordable and easy whitening options, whether it be
over-the-counter whitening strips or getting professional work done by a
cosmetic dentist in Calgary. However you choose to do it, a bright smile will
speak volumes for your appearance without the need for any enhancing makeup.
We all
want to feel our best as much of the day as possible, and the morning is a
great place to start. These steps are simple, affordable, and well worth the
effort; give them a test run, and see how much better you look and feel when you
wake up.
