Pilot FriXion Clicker Erasable pens

I received one black and one blue pen. These pens write like gel pens but they're erasable. Below is my review on Amazon.

SinfulColors No Text Red™ nail polish

I received one bottle of this color of polish. The "Red Thumb Reminder" is described as an old-school solution to a new world problem. While it may sound simple and even a little silly, it can work! Steve Babcock who was inspired by his daughter's technique of tying a piece of yarn on her finger to remember something at school. He began painting his thumbnail red to remind him to put his phone down while driving. Guess what? It's worked. One nail salon owner even offered people a free gel red nail polish on your thumb as a way for her to contribute to this cause. We think nail salon owners everywhere should offer this service for a limited time and see if can continue to push this movement forward.

Softlips® Cube

I received the mint flavor of this interesting cube. Since opening the package, I have taken it everywhere with me and it is always in my backpack! The combination of ingredients keeps my lips soft and kissable all day long.

Airheads Bites

To be honest I was most excited to try these out of everything in the box but I was mostly disappointed. The bites which have a hard shell, similar to M&Ms and a chewy center similar to Airheads original form had increasingly fake flavors. The watermelon one was the only one I truly enjoyed eating.

Kiss® Looks So Natural Lashes 

I'm not usually one for fake lashes, I don't even wear makeup that often but these lashes are just awesome! The ends aren't cut bluntly rather they taper off nicely and they are super easy to apply too! I've already bought more of these lashes for this holiday season when I know I will be going to more parties. I'm LOVING these Kiss Lashes! They're easy to apply and make my lashes look fuller, naturally.

t a few more sets of these to wear for holiday parties this year. L

 COVERGIRL Ready, Set Gorgeous Liquid Foundation

 Again, I'm not a huge beauty queen, so I'm not sure on my review of this product since I probably don't know how to apply liquid foundation! It covered well and I'm wearing it in the photo on the left.

Playtex® Sport® Fresh Balance™ - Regular Absorbancy

I was given the opportunity to try this product through the @Influenster #SpringVoxBox and @PlaytexSportandGentleGlide #PlayOn

First of all, I'm REALLY not a fan of scented period protection. I understand the draw and I like the idea of a product being able to neutralize odors down there, but while I like the idea I also know that the additives that make that happen are not a good idea for use down there for me. And really.. It just smells weird and is usually too overpowering for my taste. 

My only other qualm with this product is that I received a regular absorbancy box while I generally use super tampons. Most companies only send samples of regular absorbancy because, I'm assuming, the majority of women use that size but it really ought to be an option to receive the super absorbancy ones. 

Even though I did not receive the size I usually use, I was surprised at how well they worked, even for my heavy flow! While I found myself changing my tampon far more frequently, I did not feel as if it was leaking and didn't ruin a single pair of panties!

The best feature of these tampons is the 360 degree protection which allows the tampon to really conform to fit you. It protects leakage even if you're out running or playing sports like I often do. My period shouldn't slow me down and this product really helps me make sure that doesn't happen. 

I really liked the plastic contour applicator for these tampons as it was comfortable and easy to use, I know that the cardboard applicators are better for the environment but they're uncomfortable and difficult for me to use.
