Influenster: Braun Forehead Thermometer

As a mother there is nothing worse then having a sick child. It leaves you feeling helpless at times.

You try to do everything you can to comfort them and make them feel better. Of course you give them medicine, their favorite toy or blanket and show them compassion but when you have a baby or toddler sometimes there is something that becomes challenging.

Taking their temperature!

Thermometers have come such a long way from the old days when all we used were the mercury-in-glass thermometers. Stick it under the arm or under the tongue and take the reading, shake and repeat.

Now we are equipped with all of this wonderful technology that allows us parents a quick, non stressful and easy reading to determine if our little ones are running that dreadful fever.

As an Influenster I have had the pleasure of reviewing this awesome product! I could not be more excited! For more details comment or send me an email for more info! It's free, requires about ten minutes of your time and you receive free items like this one and so much more!

For the longest time I have used a thermometer that you stick under the arm and wait for the reading to count higher and higher until it reaches the child's temperature and beeps. This results in an impatient child, an inaccurate reading and a frustrated parent.

The Braun Forehead Thermometer offers convenience and accuracy!

You simply swipe the thermometer diagonally across the forehead and voila a reading in just seconds!
What makes this device even better is the large screen that displays green if no fever, yellow if a slight fever and red for a high temperature.

Handing the Braun Forehead Thermometer over to Madison and letting her use it on herself has also made the process "less painful".

Happy Shopping :)

YES IT'S FREE!

After I heard about Influenster from my blogging friend Kati I decided to sign up a few months back and boy am I glad I did! I wrote a post on my first Influenster VoxBox and how impressed I was with the full size samples they shipped to me to review.
 

I am usually not a big fan of online surveys, but Influenster makes the surveys short and sweet. Being the thrifty gal that I am I thought let’s try this out what do I have to lose!
I mean It’s Free! Yes Free!
If you have a few minutes out of your day and a social media presence, Influenster can be very beneficial!The website uses your likes and dislikes in products and reviews and qualifies you to become a part of a testing market for various products. Again, more FREE stuff to try out!

What I love about Influenster is you don’t receive a microscopic test tube with a one time try. You receive a full size product you can keep trying to really come up with a substantial opinion. Influenster is a no hassle easy program. No gimmicks, no junk email and no phone calls. You basically set up a profile, answer a few questions and voila you have received an awesome VoxBox or sample to try out!

A couple of weeks back I received an email letting me know I had been selected to try a free cleaning sample. To my surprise, I received a hefty package of two full size 25 oz bottles of Palmolive dish liquid!

 

Like you, I usually expect a free sample to be sample sized, but NO once again Influenster aimed to please! Now let’s see what these bad boys are all about!

My favorite of the two was of course the Palmolive Soft Touch Vitamin E. While I love the scent that takes me right back to vacation in the Palmolive Soft Touch Coconut Butter, I think the performance of the Vitamin E was greater! Plus what girl isn’t prone to loving the pastel pink color and awesome fruity scent?

I despise washing dishes because my hands are left dry and itchy due to the dish soap I usually use, Dawn. The only reason I have stayed with Dawn is because it seems to be the only dishwashing liquid that cuts the grease off of the pots and pans.

Both cleaned the dishes effortlessly! I was impressed that unlike most gel soaps, the Palmolive dish liquid rinsed from the glassware completely with no soapy streaks. Bonus! As far as the benefits they did for my hands I still rate the Vitamin E a 10. While the coconut butter left my hands smelling great it left a bit of a greasy feeling rating it at a 7.

If you are looking for FREE products to try with a no hassle program, Influenster is the place for you! If you are on the lookout for an inexpensive dish soap with more bang for your buck I would snatch up a bottle of Palmolive Soft Touch Vitamin E today!

 

These products were sent to me complimentary from Influenster for testing purposes.

Sugar N' Spice and Everything Nice!

I received my very first Influenster Vox Box and I’m so excited to show you what’s inside!
I hadn't heard of Vox Box until Kati shared her box and sent me an email invitation to join!
The box I qualified for and received is called Sugar n Spice.
First off, I just love the way the products are packaged. Full size products that are shipped in this wonderful orange decorated box! When you receive a package in the mail that is a couple of pounds you can't help but get excited!
I’m one of those people that love getting things in the mail. Between Ipsy, Birchbox and now Influenster I have had the chance to try out some of my new favorite products! I highly recommend linking up your social media, writing some reviews and scoring these amazing boxes!!

 Let's see what's inside!

Wow! Is this not impressive! Such great quality products to try!

First off we have my three favorites of the box:

Colgate Optic White

Mouthwash: $2.99 (8 oz)

 Toothbrush: $2.99 

Toothpaste: $2.99 (4 oz)

 

I am always on the lookout for whitening products without using the gel strips. Colgate is a winning product when it comes to turning teeth into pearly whites! After five days of using the toothpaste I could definitely see a difference! The mouthwash is a bit minty and very foamy which I am not a fan of but it is tolerable. The toothbrush has medium to soft bristles and really massages the gums leaving your teeth clean and feeling good!

Here we have a product that I have been debating to buy or not to buy:

Vaseline Spray & Go Moisturizer

$7.99 for a 6.5 oz can
You just never know how spray on products will work out, especially lotion. Man was I shocked when I use this product! I tried it out on my hands to begin with and it smelled wonderful! It was non-greasy, went on easy and was dry within 20 seconds! I will be using this from now instead of the daily lotions. My skin is super soft and smells great! It's a win win!

Anytime I receive food samples I am a little hesitant. You just never know how they will taste and who wants to experience something that tastes like crap? Not this girl.

belVita Breakfast Biscuits

$3.69 for 5 pkgs. (4 biscuits)

I read the packaging and it sounded great but would it taste great? Yes! Cinnamon brown sugar! Yummo! It was basically the same flavor as those cinnamon graham crackers! An energy bar that is good for you and tastes great, I could eat these every day for breakfast or for a snack!

I have been very happy with all of my contents so far until I opened this:

Dickenson's Original Witch Hazel Oil Controlling Towelettes

$5.99 for a 20 count box

I could not review this product because I couldn't get past the smell of the towelettes. I am not a fan of the scent and I could not bare to smother these all over my face and smell them all day.

 

Here we have the sweetest product in the box:

Nectresse 

$6.99 for a 5.9 oz container

$3.99 for a box of 40 packets

 

I love adding sweeteners to my tea or coffee rather than sugar any day. Nectresse is 100% natural and really adds a great taste to your drink.
