How I Keep My Hands Beautiful in Winter

I received the Cetaphil Moisturizer and the Pure Ice nail polish free from Influenster. I was not compensated to write a review, and the thoughts contained herein are my own.

Living in the Pacific Northwest, it's not secret that it gets cold and dry up here in winter. I mean cold, and dry. My hands are constantly red and cracked! I may not be a beauty blogger, but like any girl, I like to look beautiful! So when my hands are an ugly red and look like I was attacked by my cat, it's time to do something about it.

That's where Cetaphil moisturizing cream and Pure Ice nail polish come in. These two products are huge problem solvers for a girl like me! I had not even heard of Cetaphil before receiving the moisturizing cream, and I've tried a lot of moisturizing creams. I was surprised that it came in such a small container, but I figured I would give it a shot. I was amazed at how little it took to keep my hands soft and smooth all day! It's so good, I've even started using it on my dry elbows as well!

And let's not forget the gorgeous purple Pure Ice nail polish. I'm not usually one to put bright colors on my nails, but this purple is just muted enough to work with my style. It dries quickly and easily, and only took a couple of coats to cover my nails! It's a great color for wearing on a date night out, or simply to spice things up at work.

Together, the moisturizing cream and nail polish made my tired hands look like new. For someone in Washington in January, that's no small feat! These two products have quickly become my winter beauty staples, and I don't see myself replacing them anytime soon. I highly recommend you check them both out! The Cetaphil comes in different varieties, like if you have sensitive skin, and Pure Ice has tons of different colors to choose from! Both can be picked up at any local drugstore, or somewhere like Wal-Mart or Target.

Have you tried Cetaphil or Pure Ice polish before? What did you think? Is this the kind of nail polish color you would choose for your nails?

Beauty Blogger Voxbox 2012 Final Reviews

I got the chance to do another Beauty Blogger Voxbox! Here's a full vlog with my final reviews. If you have any questions, leave them down below!

Dr. Scholl's For Her Ball of Foot Cushions Review

I recently received Dr. Scholl's For Her Ball of Foot Cushions from Dr. Scholl's through Influenster's Spring VoxBox.

These were so comfortable! I have terrible feet, mainly because I tend to wear flats all of the time, so wearing any lifted shoes really hurt my feet. These cushions helped to protect the balls of my feet from the unusual angle of my heels, and I even used them in a pair of my flats where the soles were wearing thin. These cushions were great, and the kept my feet from pain!

Sally Hansen Salon Effects

I recently received Sally Hansen Salon Effects from Salle Hansen through Influenster's Spring VoxBox. I received the Frock Star color.

I loved the sparkles on these strips! I had a hard time putting these on, and felt that they were harder to put on than the instructions tell you. I was also disappointed that the started to chip the same night I put them on. I understand they're going to chip, but for a product that's known for not chipping, I was disappointed about that. I did love that I didn't have to wait for them to dry, and there is a huge range of colors and patterns! Definitely worth a try for some quick color.

Bath & Body Works Fine Fragrance Mist

I recently received Bath & Body Works Fine Fragrance Mist from Bath & Body Works through Influenster's Spring VoxBox. I received the Japanese Cherry Blossom scent.

I love cherry blossoms! It is probably my favorite scent for anything. I'm currently using cherry blossom shampoo and conditioner, and now this body spray. I loved how light the scent was, but it wasn't too light that it was un-noticable. It surprisingly came in a rather large bottle, so this will be lasting me for awhile. I am very pleased with this spray, and won't be using any others for some time to come.

Sheer Cover Review

I recently received the Sheer Cover Duo Concealer from Sheer Cover through Influenster's Spring VoxBox. I received the light/medium shade.

I liked how easy this was to blend! I used a simple make-up sponge, and the concealer started out as a light cream and blends on as a sort of light powder. I did blend the two colors, and it's very easy to blend a variety of shades with the two different colors. The one thing I wish was better was having a lighter option, as I'm very pale and even these shades were too dark for my skin. However, this concealer is a hit! I love it.
