Influenster Review: Impress Nails!


 
I got these nails to review from Influenster. (You can check out the website at influenster.com). I was give 2 sets of nails. The top picture shows you both. The colour on the left is called Working Girl and I'm pretty sure the colour on the right is called Joyride. I have tried the Working Girl ones before because I won them in a giveaway so I tried the Joyride colour this time. This time around I have to say that I was a little disappointed. A lot of the stickers that came off the back ended up not being sticky so I was only able to do one hand. I found the nails to be way to long for what I wanted. If I would have had to pay for the nails then I would be really upset with what I got in the Joyride nails. It could have just had been a bad box because the box that I tried before was awesome!
 
The advantages to these nails are that they are easy to apply. All you have to do is to select the right size for your nails, remove the stickers, and press to apply. I loved that when it was time to take off my nails that all I had to do was pull off the nail and it didn't make it feel like I was taking my actual nail off.
 
These come in many colours and patterns and you can get them a different stores like Target and Walmart. They range in price depending on what ones you are buying from $8.99 to $10.99.

Influenster: Garnier Damage Eraser Review


So I just wanted to say that I did get this product from Influenster for free for review purposes. I'm not getting paid by them to do this review and this review is my honest opinion.
 
 
I just wanted to say that when I first got the testers and we had to guess, and I guessed wrong. I thought it was a different brand and was surprised to see that it was Garnier Fructis.
 
In this package we got 4 items from the Garnier Frucits Damage Eraser collection. (From left to right) We got the shampoo, conditioner, split end serum, and the reconstructing butter. I was very surprised to see the butter because it wasn't one of the samples that we received before this box and it is a different product then what I have tried before. I love the smell of these products and how it stays in your hair after you shower. I like how it makes my hair shiny and smooth. I also like how it makes my split ends look almost normal. I use a lot of heat and my dye my hair a lot so this product is an awesome line to try!
 
There is always at least one thing that I don't like about a product. I don't like to post if I'm bashing a company but for me this is more of a way to help them get better because I think of it as more of a suggestion. I find that if you put too much of the butter in your hair then you will have a lot of build up left after you should and after you have scrubbed it all out. It took me a couple of times to find the right amount because it would make my hair look greasy. The other thing that I didn't like about this product is the fact that it has silicone in it. I think that it would be 100% more amazing without that product.
 
All in all I LOVE this product and would recommend it to anyone that is thinking about trying it. You can get it for a great price if you can get it on sale and if you don't get it on sale it's still a reasonable price!

Unboxing Influenster: L'Oreal


I have recently received this package from Influenster. If you want more information about Influenster then you can go to their website: http://www.influenster.com .
 
We got these products and we don't know what line that they were going to be from. I like that we were able to try them out without knowing what to expect.
 
I have tried these products out for a week and let me say that I'm impressed so far. For samples we got a shampoo, conditioner, and split end serum. They all smelt amazing and I love how the whole line left my hair feeling soft and smelling nice even after the shower. I can't wait to get more products from this line!

Sally Hansen Complete Salon Manicure Review! (Sally Hansen #CSMTKO)


 



I received these from Influenster. I have been able to try all 3 polishes to get my full opinion on them before I wrote this. I just wanted to say that I love this brand and it will probably be my favourite for a long time. The brand is inexpensive and is easy to get your hands on. The colour that I liked the most was Pat on the Black. It is the deep purple colour but it looks black in some of the pictures. The colour that I liked the least was the light blue one, Jaded. I found it very watery and streaky compared to the other colours that I tried out. I used 4 coats and it still wasn't opaque. It is safe to say that I threw that colour right in the garbage and was very disappointed because I had high expectations from the other 2 colours. I didn't have this problem with the other 2 colours. The only problem that I had with the other 2 colours was mainly chipping. It says that it's supposed to be chip resistant but I saw that happening within the second day of wearing. It started around the end of my nail and then eventually happened in the middle of my nail. What I did like about the polish is that when wearing it it did seem like it was helping my nails to be stronger. I also liked that it seemed like that I was wearing gel nails without actually having to go to a salon. All in all I would repurchase these but maybe try out different colours. Maybe I got a bad bottle of nail polish but I know that I will not try out that colour again in case it was made a little differently.

Broadway Nails - Impress Manicure!

 
 
So I received these nails in an Influenster Voxbox. I love the colour that I got and I was happy that I was able to get a chance to use them. I love how easy it was to apply the nails and the fact that they stay on for a while. They didn't last the full week like it said on the packaging but I'm very rough on my nails at work and at school but they still lasted a good 5 days. The two things that I didn't like about these nails are the fact that it was hard for me to get the stickers off the nails and that they didn't stay on perfectly. The sides started to come up after the first day and they probably would've lasted long if the sides would have stayed down longer. I hated having to get the stickers off the nails because I had to use my teeth to get them off! But all in all I would repurchase these because I loved them aside of the downfalls that I had. They are inexpensive and they come in different colours. You can also get them at different stores making them easy to get your hands on.
