Things I'm Lovin' Tuesday: Suave Coconut Milk Infusion

This is an Influenster sponsored review.

I was given the Suave Coconut Milk Infusion free to try, but every opinion is 100% my own!

Last Summer I started another monthly blog series called

THINGS I'M LOVIN' TUESDAY!!!

If you missed the first few, you can find them:

here, here, here, here, here, here and here;

and make sure to check back every last Tuesday of the month!

Now onto what I'm lovin' this month...

In this post, I briefly shared my thoughts and reviewed
Suave Professionals Coconut Oil Shampoo and Conditioner.
And I was such a fan of it after the first use,
that I decided to share my love for it with you guys!!!

I'll be honest and was a little hesitant at first.

I was thrilled by the coconut milk, 

but I'm a little bit of a hair product snob,

and wasn't expecting much from Suave.

Well let me just say - lesson learned!

I am no longer anti-Suave 

and it has a lot to do with these products.

They made me a believer in inexpensive hair care!!!

I love the way the shampoo lathers,

I love the way my hair looks after it's air dried,

I love that if/when I re-buy it I won't be breaking the bank,

But most of all - I really really really like the scent!!!

The coconut milk gives the shampoo and conditioner an amazing smell.

It's not too strong or overpowering, but surprisingly it sticks around for hours!

I typically wash my hair at night and when I woke up the next morning after using these,

I WAS STILL SMELLING THE COCONUT!

If you're looking for a new shampoo and conditioner to try,

I highly recommend you give these two a try.

I can't speak on their long-term use because I've only used them a few times,

but so far I've really loved what they've done to my hair!

Bubble Bath Review: Dr. Teal's Epson Salt

This is an Influenster sponsored review.

I was given the Dr. Teal's Epson Salt free to try, but every opinion is 100% my own.

Hellllllllllllllllllllllllo Wednesday!

It's time for another bubble bath review and I'm so excited about this one.

It's not about your typical bubble bath, but instead Epson Salt for the bath!

I've used Epson Salt in the past many times,

and even reviewed some Dr. Teal's bubble bath before too,

so I was really excited to try this and share my thoughts with you.

As mentioned above, I received these from Influenster in return for a review.

I was really thrilled about the lavender scent and couldn't wait to use them.

In fact, it was my first VoxBox item to be used for review!

Dr. Teal's Lavender Epson Salt

The size of the bag was perfect for one bath!

I really liked the ease of not having to measure out the salt,

like I've had to do with other Epson Salt I've used in the past.

Of course I have something to drink and read while I soak!

Pour the entire bag of Epson Salt under warn, running water.

Sit back, relax and let the Epson Salt start to absorb into your skin.

And don't forget to set a timer so you don't soak too long!

So are you wondering what I thought?

I LOVED the Dr. Teal's Lavender Epson Salt

and will most likely be buying more soon.

They definitely helped my sore muscles,

but I think my favorite part was the scent!

The lavender made it so easy to just soak and relax.

Suave Professionals Coconut Oil Shampoo and Conditioner

When I saw Coconut Milk I was sold immediately!

I'm pretty much a fan of ANYTHING with coconut in it,

so I was quite excited to give this shampoo and condition a try.

And not surprisingly, I ended up really liking it!

Dr. Teal's Lavender Epson Salt

These definitely helped my sore muscles,

but I think my favorite part was the scent!

The lavender made it so easy to just soak and relax.

Check back in March for a detailed review post on these!

Hormel Chicken Taco Meat

I'm really picky about the quality of meat I eat,

especially when it comes to precooked meat,

but I was pleasantly surprised and really enjoyed this!

For a more detailed review, check out this post. 

Simply Sprouted Way Better Snacks 
Sweet Chili Tortilla Chips

To be honest, I didn't have high hopes for these chips.

But I was pleasantly surprised when I took the first bite,

because man oh man were they DELICIOUS!!!!

They reminded me of a healthy version of a Cool Ranch Dorito. 

I hope you enjoyed reading my reviews!

As a reminder, I was given everything free to try, 

but every opinion is 100% my own.

Hormel Chicken Taco Salad

This is an Influenster sponsored review.

I was given the Hormel Chicken Taco Meat free to try, but every opinion is 100% my own.

When I received my most recent VoxBox from Influenster,

I think I was most excited to try out the Hormel Chicken Taco Meat.

I instantly knew that I wasn't going to make typical tacos,

but instead was going to use the meat for a giant taco salad!

I posted this picture on Instagram the night I made the salad.

And now I crave the salad anytime I see this picture!

Now that I've told you how amazing it is,

let me show you how simple it was to make!

The Goods:

Hormel Chicken Taco Meat

Lettuce

Tomatoes

Avocado

Monterey Jack Cheese

Pickled Jalapenos

Black Beans

Rice*

Cilantro*

Limes*

Sour Cream

Salsa

Ranch Dressing

*I used the Rice, Cilantro and Limes to make an easy,

knockoff version of Chipotle's Cilantro Lime Rice.

Once you have all your ingredients prepped, 

you're pretty much already done with the hard stuff.

Just throw everything in a bowl and toss to combine.

And because I like my food to not only taste good, but look good too,

I put my salad into a nicer bowl and topped it with a little more cheese.

Even though this salad has quite a few ingredients,

it was one of the easiest salads I've ever made!

Hormel made it super simple for you,

because the chicken is already cooked and seasoned perfectly!

I'm really picky about the quality of meat I eat,

especially when it comes to precooked meat,

but I was pleasantly surprised and really enjoyed this!

My VoxBox Goods:

First Aid Shot Therapy: $2.99

Hawaiian Tropic Silk Hydration After Sun: $2.99-$8.99

Jamba Juice Smoothie Kit: $2.99-$3.49

CoverGirl Bombshell Curvaceous by LashBlast Mascara: $9.49-$11.99

SinfulColors Professional Nail Polish - Aqua: $1.99

I received all of the above products FREE from Influenster for review purposes.

First Aid Shot Therapy

This is the ONLY thing I have yet to try.

And I'll be honest - I'm a little scared.

It looks pretty, but I'm not too sure about a pain relief shot 

used to cure headaches/migraines, sore muscles, back pains and hangover headaches.

CoverGirl Bombshell Curvaceous by LashBlast Mascara

I'm always a fan of trying new mascaras, 

but I almost always go back to my old favorites.

I was intrigued by the design and couldn't wait to give it a try.

Left - No Mascara, Right - LashBlast Mascara

Top - No Mascara, Bottom - LashBlast Mascara

As you can tell, the mascara did do a lot for my lashes.

I really liked the end result, but I felt like it was kind of a process.

I wouldn't use this everyday, 

but will keep it around for occasions I can spend more time applying. 

Hawaiian Tropic Silk Hydration After Sun

Out of all my goodies, I was most excited to try this!

Being so fair skinned, I tend to stay out of the sun, 

but couldn't wait to use this after a fun Summer adventure.

It's a different consistency than normal lotion and not greasy at all.

It soaks right in, but has a slight sticky feeling for a little - less than 30 seconds.

I really like this and am glad it came in my VoxBox!

Jamba Juice Smoothie Kit

I chose to review the Caribbean Passion flavor.

I didn't read the back, so I didn't realize I also needed to buy Apple Juice, 

which was needed to make the smoothie.

Thank goodness for vending machines in my apartment complex!

The Kit AKA Frozen Fruit and Apple Juice.

Add the goods and blend!

Now time to taste!!!

It was quite good I must say.

While it did remind me of a smoothie I'd had from Jamba Juice in the past,

I was a little disappointed I had to purchase the juice in order to make it though.

SinfulColors Professional Nail Polish

I love the color aqua.

And I love wearing it on my toes.

But this shade was a little too irridescent for me.

If I'm being honest - I think the color 

would be much better for someone a little younger.

(Did I really just say that?!?!)

Color aside, I was a little sad with the quality.

It didn't chip, but did start to rub off the tips of my toenails

in a little over a week's time.

I hope you enjoyed reading my reviews!

As a reminder, I was given everything free to try, 

but every opinion is 100% my own.

And leet's hope I have another VoxBox coming my way soon!
