I received this box of goodies in the mail a few weeks ago and I'm dying to share my thoughts with you! Included in the box was: Secret Clinical Strength Stress Response Deodorant, Olay Fresh Effects Shine, Shine Go Away cleanser & VaVa Vivid Cleansing Brush, Not Your Mother's Beach Babe Texturizing Sea Salt Spray, and a Greek Yogurt and Blueberry Skinny Girl Daily On-The-Go Bar. 

Skinny Girl Daily Greek Yogurt and Blueberry On-The-Go Bar: I'm not going to lie, the above photo is the only one I have of the Skinny Girl Daily bar because I immediate ate it without thinking twice (bad blogger!). I loved the flavor, it wasn't too sweet, slightly chewy, and all around delicious. I wouldn't purchase these bars because they don't fit into my high protein/sugar/fat diet, but for someone who is dieting or looking for a low calorie snack these are great. That said, put it in front of me and I will eat it! 




Secret Clinical Strength Stress Response Deodorant: One of the reasons I'm not into winter is the constantly changing temperature from going in and outside all day. I'm freezing outside then sweating on the subway. This deodorant was great! I loved the Serene Citrus Scent. Oddly enough, it complements my Marc Jacobs Dot perfume nicely. This stuff keeps you dry and fresh. When I start showering my underarms are dry until I soap em up.




Olay Fresh Effects Shine, Shine Go Away cleanser & VaVa Vivid Cleansing Brush: I've resisted the Clarisonic because any type of brush is just too harsh on my skin. I was elated to receive this system in my box! The vibrating brush has soft rubbery bristles that aren't too harsh. I even used this product twice in one day to see if it would irritate my skin; no irritation at all! The cleanser has a rich lather and smells great. This is a great budget alternative to the Clarisonic.



Not Your Mother's Beach Babe Texturizing Sea Salt Spray: Wow. As someone who has used Bumble & Bumble's crazy expensive Surf Spray for years I was thoroughly impressed. It smells AMAZING. One whiff and you would think you were sipping Pina Coladas on the beach. I sprayed it as well as Bumble & Bumble's surf spray onto my mirror and let it dry and Not Your Mother's Beach Babe has a much higher salt content than the B&B. I haven't wanted to wear my hair wavy lately, but this has totally converted me. Love it! I will definitely be purchasing a full size bottle of this. Check out these results!


If you only try one of these products, make it Not Your Mother's Beach Babe Texturizing Sea Salt Spray. Be sure to come back and let me know what you think!
