Nails of the Day & Beauty Subscription Services

Spring/Summer is my favorite time of the year because of the bright and bold colors. I also like to get carried away with bright and crazy nail designs. Today I am sporting the Sally Hansen Salon Effects Real Nail Polish Strips in the color Animal Instinct (pink and black zebra). These strips were sent to me in my Influenster Vox Box. On my ring fingers I am wearing the Miss Beauty Nail Bling sent to me in my monthly MyGlam bag. The Sally Hansen strips were very easy to apply, seem to be holding up well, and are so darn adorable! I will definitely re-purchase these in the future. I am not as impressed with the Miss Beauty Nail Bling. They were sort of difficult to apply and they are already starting to peel off :(




Let's chat a little bit about Influenster & MyGlam... If you don't already know, Influenster is a completely FREE beauty tester program. You take several quizzes and earn badges based on your interests. Every few months Influenster comes out with a "Vox Box",or beauty box, full of several full size products. Recipients of the boxes are selected based upon prior participation and badges so you are not always guaranteed a box. However, there have only been 3 boxes since I became a member and I have received 2 of them. There is NO CATCH. It is totally free. They only ask that you review the products, share them on social networking sites if you like them, and take a survey once you're done trying everything out.

MyGlam is sort of similar to Influenster, except it is a monthly subscription service and there are no surveys to take. The price is $10 per month and you receive 4-5 samples and deluxe samples of beauty products in a cute little makeup bag. This company was started by Youtuber Michelle Phan and many of the stylists are Youtube Gurus (AndreasChoice, MissJessicaHarlow, etc).

So far I have LOVED both services, however, I prefer Influenster. MyGlam is nice, but I generally receive products that I wouldn't consider repurchasing. Influenster stocks their beauty boxes with affordable everyday products.

Love & Blessings,
