Influenster College VoxBox: Broadway Impress Nails

Good Morning! Who's ready for Santa Claus? ONLY 5 MORE DAYS!! I hope you ask Santa for a set of Broadway Impress Nails in your stocking because these are AMAZING (no, I'm not getting paid to say that either)! I was chosen by Influenster to test out their College VoxBox edition in early November. Last week, I took the time to test these babies out. I will first say that I was hesitant as I *HATE* press-on nails, never liked them at ALL! I always had problems with them staying on but let me tell you I was WRONG after testing these out.    It was love at first press-on (LOL). They fit perfect to each nail and were very easy to put on. I could bore you with the day-to-day details of what I did in the week I wore them but I'm not. I'll sum up that I did a lot of craft and business projects during the week. By Saturday, Day 7 they looked like a little chipped at the ends but nothing too dramatic. If I had given myself a mani, the paint would have chipped off within 2-3 days of application. I didn't see chipping until day 5. 

Reasons to purchase:
1. NO popping off
2. Minimal chipping
3. a HUGE range of colors
4. cheaper than a mani!

P.S. 
These will last longer than a week. :)

Check them out here:

Purchase them at your local store (s):
$5.99 for colors, $7.99 for patterns at CVS, CVS, Rite Aid, Duane Reade, KMart, Walgreens, Walmart, and more

Influenster: College VoxBox 2012

 
Right before Thanksgiving, I received my first ever Influenster VoxBox. I received the College VoxBox 2012 that included Broadway Nails imPress nails in Space Cadet, Energy Sheets in Mint, Necco Wafer candy in Tropical, NYC New York Color Show Time Glitter Pencil in Showtime Black, and Pentel Ener-Gel X pen. I was going to make a post the day I received the products but I wanted to really test out the products first. So, we're closing into a month since I've had the items and here's what I think.

College VoxBox 2012:

Broadway Nails imPress nails in Space Cadet: I absolutely LOVE these nails! They lasted a full week and I'm sure they could have lasted longer had I not caught snags while fixing jewelry. Towards the end of the week they did start to chip at the ends but I work working on a lot of projects. I will be posting a separate blog post for the nails. STAY TUNED!

Energy Sheets in Mint: I tried these at work mid-shift and the smell alone could wake someone up. The mint smell was overpowering, although it worked as a  2-n-1: energy strip and breath freshener.

Necco Wafer in Tropical: I used to eat these as a kid growing up, so being able to try new flavors was pretty amazing. The flavors were coconut, passion fruit, strawberry, lime, and mango. I wasn't very fond of the passion fruit flavor but the others were pretty good. I even shared with my mom. :)

NYC New York Color Show Time Glitter Pencil in Showtime Black: The pencil was very smooth and I like the glittery effect. This would be great for the holidays, such as, New Year's! Let's get the party started!

Pentel Ener-Gel X pen: I used this the first two day I had the product and it has mysteriously disappeared since. I do have to say that I loved the smooth writing of the pen. I am very picky when it comes to the use of writing utensils.
