I was fortunate enough to be chosen by Influenster to test products from the Viva VoxBox. I was very excited when I saw the bright yellow box had arrived to my house.

Included in my Viva VoxBox were the following:

• NYC Twistable Lip Color
• Shell Fuel Rewards Card
• 2 Pure Ice Nail Polishes
• Cetaphil Gentle Cleansing Cloths
• Montagne Jeunesse Peel Off Mask
• Vaseline Spray and Go Moisturizer

Needless to say this VoxBox is amazing and I could not wait to try it all! 

Cetaphil Gentle Cleansing Cloths

This was the first time I've ever used the Cetaphil Gentle Cleansing Cloths. The thing I loved the most was that they did not make my skin feel dry. When I used the cloths they removed all the dirt, oil, and make up from my face.

Pure Ice Nail Polish

I absolutely love the Pure Ice Nail Polish colors I received "After Hours" and "It's Complicated". With being a busy, working mom nail polishes and I don't usually get along. The polish lasted on my nails no more than 2 days. Here's a picture of one of my many manicures.

Vaseline Spray and Go Moisturizer

The best thing about the Spray and Go Moisturizer is that it moisturized my skin all day. It did not leave and oily or greasy residue on my skin or clothes.

Shell Rewards Cards

This is the item I was most excited about and the one the disappointed me. As the owner of an SUV I was looking forward to being able to save money on gas. It program is simple enough. Activate the card, recommend to friends and family, earn money off gas. 

Well I activated the card and was so excited to use it. I drove to my closest Shell station,  walked inside, handed the cashier my Rewards card, and he didn't even know what it was :(. I was so disappointed to find out the card is not accepted at every location. I live in the city of Philadelphia you would think there would be at least one Shell gas station that accepted the card but I could not find any. I feel like it should be like other rewards cards, that no matter the location it should be able to be used. 

NYC Twistable Lip Color

The NYC Twistable Lip Color in South Ferry Berry was a beautiful color. I absolutely loved the color. My only issue is that it smudged and rubbed off easily. I would have loved it if it lasted longer.

Montagne Jeunesse Peel Off Mask

In my box I received the Manuka-Honey Peel Off Mask which smells amazing! The mask is easy to apply and easy to remove. It did not leave my skin feeling dry. My face felt so smooth after using the mask.

Overall I loved all the products included in the Viva VoxBox. I would definitely buy these products on my own and recommend them to my friends and family. I would like to thank Influenster for giving me the opportunity to sample these products.

Team Manny

Every 40 seconds someone in the world dies by suicide. Every 41 seconds Someone is left to make sense of it.

On October 5, 2014 my family and I will be joining with thousands of people nationwide this fall to walk in American Foundation for Suicide Prevention's Philadelphia Out of the Darkness Community Walk to benefit the American Foundation for Suicide Prevention. I would appreciate any support that you give me for this worthwhile cause.

I am walking in honor of my big brother Juan "Manny" Rodriguez who for many years battled with Bipolar Disorder as well as Schizophrena. He did not enjoy being on medications because he said they made him feel like a zombie. He lost his battle with these diseases and on March 1, 2012 he took his own life to end his suffering. 

The American Foundation for Suicide Prevention is at the forefront of research, education and prevention initiatives designed to reduce loss of life from suicide. With more than 38,000 lives lost each year in the U.S. and over one million worldwide, the importance of AFSP's mission has never been greater, nor our work more urgent.

I hope you will consider supporting my participation in this event. Any contribution will help the work of AFSP, and all donations are 100% tax deductible.

Donating online is safe and easy! To make an online donation please click the "Support This Participant" button on my fundraising page.
