Dr. Scholl's® For Her High Heel Insoles Review

I received these Dr. Scholl's® For Her High Heel Insoles complimentary VIA Influenster! I was really excited to try these, since I've always been too cheap to purchase any, because I am never sure about things I've never used before.

Like every girl, I love the look of high heels. When it comes to actually wearing them, I have mixed feelings. Previous to having kids, heels were my BFF. I wore 6.5 inch heels though my entire pregnancy with my first, sore back and all. After having my second, heels went out the window. I wanted comfy, not sore feet and a sore back. My heels end up blistered, and my back gets sore. So, I have had heels just sitting in my garage, tags and all.

Recently, I did a small photoshoot with our car, and I really wanted to wear my cowboy boots. I knew that we would be doing some walking, and going out after, since our babes were with grandma. I ended up bringing flip flops, and a change of comfier clothes. Here's the boots I wore!


My boots ended up being so comfy that I posed without breaking my legs, or making any "these shoes are really hurting my feet" faces! I also ended up wearing these all night, and not even changing into my other shoes I brought! I think that says it all, from thinking I'd be out of these shoes as soon as my last picture was taken! 

I'm not sure that I would purchase these or not in the future. I only say that because I still don't see myself wearing a ton of heels, however, that may change when I unpack the ones I have, or purchase more. These aren't badly priced, either, right around 10-11.00.

Goody Ouchless Ribbon Elastics Review!

So, I received these Goody ribbon elastic hair ties, complimentary, in my SunVoxBox from Influenster! I've actually seen these made by some fellow WAHM's, and I've wanted to try them, but I always have a hard time buying ANYTHING I haven't used before! (Weird, I know, but that's one reason to love Influenster!)

Here is what they look like!


There are 5 in a pack, and they retail for right around 3.99 for this pack of 5. You can get them pretty much anywhere Goody products are sold, I believe. I've seen them at Target, Walmart, and Walgreens so far!

I like these hair ties. I think they are cute. The knot makes it kind of odd, if the knot is facing up, because then the ribbon ends stick out. I usually tuck the knot under if that happens, but I try just making sure the knot ends up on the underside of my bun or ponytail. 

When I first went to use one, I didn't really have high hopes of it holding my hair very tightly. My hair is all different lengths, so I need a tight hold. These actually worked really well, and I was able to get them pretty darn tight. 

Overall, I do think I'd purchase these in the future. They feel like they wouldn't be as harsh on your hair as original hair ties. Here is my (very boring), but daily updo, with these!

Without a flower. And you can see that my first time using them, and there is no knot popping out!

Sinful Colors Sinful Shine Review!


This is part of my pretty Sun VoxBox from Influenster! This is Sinful Shine, by Sinful Colors, in the color "pragmatic". Firstly, this purple is GORGEOUS. The formula was amazing, and the wear was pretty incredible. I beat my nails up... a lot. My nails were pretty indestructible for nearly 2 1/2 weeks, before I went bowling, and actually cracked one of my nails ): 

I had actually bought 2 bottles of this prior to receiving a bottle complimentary from Influenster, but I never used it. Getting this and trying it out to review, pushed me to use my other 2, and I really love the 3 I have so far! Like I said, the formula's are great, and you get a nice even, opaque coat in 2 coats. Several of their regular line polishes, I find I need 3-4 coats, but not with these! I can't wait to buy more! (Or win them from Influenster! :D)

You can purchase these at WalGreens for 2.99 each, and there are 32 awesome colors to choose from! They are exclusive to WalGreens! I received this product complimentary, from Influenster

Here is my mani I did with the color "pragmatic"
