Begin with Uncle Ben

I've lost 100lbs and usually rice is something that I only indulge on random and very rare occasions. I got a coupon from Influenster to get a box of Uncle Ben's Flavored Grains for free and decided to give it a try.

I took my favorite vegetables (onion, mushrooms, green pepper) and some chicken and mixed it with the rice. It tasted great! Calorie wise, it also wasn't too bad. I didn't have major panic attacks eating it, which was great! I was able to make a healthy and delicious meal and it made me interested in trying more Uncle Ben products in the future! It also wasn't tough or gritty like some brown rices I've had in the past. A+ product, and probably my favorite in this Vox Box!

I received this product complimentary from Influenster for testing purposes. All opinions on this blog post are 100% my own.

Dramamine Non Drowsy Naturals

This worked well for a quick fix during a car ride but it didn't seem to last long and after a little while the uneasy carsick feeling back back. I would recommend it to those who need a quick fix, but not for anything longer than a couple hours as more might be necessary. Only two tablets can be taken in 24 hours. I am planning on testing it out again for amusement park day, but taking it before we start hitting the bigger rides to see if that helps.

ATTITTUDE 2-1 Shampoo and Body Wash

Hi guys! I recently received the Nurture Vox Box from Influenster and inside was a sample of Attitude 2 in 1 Shampoo and body wash. I thought I'd take a few minutes to share my opinion of it! I am very picky with shampoo and body wash and that might have been some of the problem with this, but really, it wasn't my favorite. The first thing I noticed was the scent of this. It's not that it smells bad, but it has a really strong scent that almost felt a little too strong for me. While using it as a shampoo, I noticed that I had problems getting it to lather and while my hair felt clean, it also felt completely stripped. I soaked my hair in conditioner after using this. I had problems getting it to lather to use as a body was as well, but with the help of a loofah, I finally got it going. I felt like it added time to my shower rather than help speed it up, and it didn't work like I was hoping it. Because of that, I probably won't buy again.

Blue Lizard Sensitive sunscreen

Hi guys! I recently received the Nurture Vox Box from Influenster and inside was a sample of Blue Lizard Sensitive sunscreen. I thought I'd take a few minutes to share my opinion of it! Since I have extremely sensitive skin on my face, I used it on my face. It doesn't have a scent that I could smell like most other sunscreens I'm used to and that was nice with it being so near my face (sometimes I get headaches with an overwhelming scent). My face didn't burn while I was out today, which was really great! I also really like how thee cap turns blue when there are damaging UV rays out there. It is something that I could see myself picking up again in the future if it's available in the stores I shop at.
