St Ives Vox Box
I was one of the lucky Influensters to receive the St Ive's Vox Box! All of the products I am reviewing today have been given to me complementary. I was so excited to try these products out, because in the past I used St Ive's but moved on from them. I was an avid user of the St Ive's apricot face wash, but my skins needs changed. In the box I received three products, the nourished and smoothing oatmeal scrub plus mask, the even and bright pink lemon and mandarin exfoliating body wash, and lastly the refresh and revive pear nectar and soy body lotion!
I'll start off with the nourished and smoothing oatmeal scrub as it was the first product I tried. I really love the face wash and love the fact that it is a mask as well. It's been gentle on my sensitive skin, usually everything makes me break out especially something that is supposed to be used as a mask. Usually products like this are very heavy, but the St Ive's scrub and mask is incredibly light weight! I've been using it for at least 2 weeks now and my skin has been very happy about it! I also love the fact that the product is hypo allergenic, and paraben free! The only downfall to this brilliant product is at times it can leave a residue, it only happened once but once is more then enough in my book! Other then that it's a great product and I would still recommend this to any one!
The second product that i'm going to review is the even and bright pink lemon and mandarin exfoliating body wash. First of all this product smells really great! It's not an overpowering scent which I love, I'm personally not a fan of scents that are to intense. I want to mention as a big factor, I have hard water so a lot of body washes leave a residue because of that. This body wash has become my favorite because I never felt like anything was left over when I was done showering! Total win on my part, I love to treat myself and why not with something as simple as a body wash. I ranted and raved about the body wash so much I got my boyfriend to use it, he also loves it. Again this product is also paraben free, I don't know about you but I don't like using plastic on my body! I really like how easy it is to use as well, a little goes a long way and it lathers so nicely. I would absolutely recommend this product for someone to use, especially if they have hard water like I do.
The third and final product i'm going to review today is the refresh and revive pear nectar and soy body lotion. As with the previous product the scent of this is just fantastic. I love how subtle it is, powerful enough that you'd get complimented but not strong enough that everyone knows your coming! I love how when I used the lotion the first time my skin just absorbed the lotion up. It made my skin so soft and smooth, plus it made me smell great! The only downfall I noticed which is a big one for me is the fact that my skin felt sticky after using the lotion a few times. I personally don't like to feel like I have anything on my skin, so this was a deal breaker for me. I took a break from using the lotion and figured I'd try it again in the near future! So as of now it's the only product that I'm not sure if I'd recommend.
I hope you enjoyed my reviews, and stay tuned for more reviews! Thank you for reading and please feel free to comment or message me!
