The fine folks at www.influenster.com and Crest sent me a free whitening kit! The deal is that I get to test it out, be thankful to influenster and crest for being so generous, and give my honest feedback on the product and promote my personal feedback whether it is negative or positive.

To be honest I had tried the older Crest basic white strips back in the day. I didn’t like them because they weren’t powerful and they slipped around on my teeth. However, these strips are awesome! They are level 4 whitening power, enamel safe, and they stick to your teeth really, really well. After the first 3 times I used them (2 hours each time) I noticed a difference.

They were a $40 value and definitely worth purchasing again when this box runs out.

Lichtenstein Pop Art Inspired Makeup by Loraine I.!

I feel like this is a great Halloween mask. I know it has been circulating around the internet, but I doubt any of my roommates will even know where I got the idea. #stealing this :D

Seriously I keep getting crap in those boxes. I feel really bad for those that keep getting food. I got some green tea this month, which is okay I guess. Better than the lara bars. At least give us like coupons for a variety of food. Sample Society was awesome again this month. I got the exfolikate mask thing. Amazing!!! I actually might buy it even though it is really expensive. Myglam/Ipsy looks like they are finally getting with the big picture. This month’s bag looks like a real winner. I was so close to saying goodbye to them too. Looks like I actually may being saying bye to Birchbox instead!

Meanwhile Influenster.com got a brand new page which they said they had been working on every since January or so! It was well worth the wait though! This new site looks amazing, pretty, and much more fun. I’ve not encountered any problems on the site, and all the new stuff is so much fun. I seriously like the new direction they are taking.
