Vichy Liftactiv Collagen Specialist

Hi Savvys!

I was so surprised to have received the Vichy Liftactiv Collagen Specialist VoxBox complimentary for review. I am getting into a more comprehensive skincare routine and am always looking for new products to try.

I’ve noticed a trend recently about collagen products, which helps firm up aging skin. I was curious to see what this could do for my skin since my skin is still pretty firm and fine line free.

Upon opening the container, I found that it was really strong smelling. It was actually kind of off putting because I am not used to products that are so strong. I’ve used other Vichy products before and have noticed that in general, they do tend to be strong smelling, but this was really uncomfortable.

The packing is pretty and they do have really good ingredients, like vitamin c, is made without parabens and is hypoallergenic. I used this for 3 days and did notice that my skin felt immediately firmer and plumper.

Overall, I do not think I would purchase this product because of the smell. I’m sure I can find similar products that is less stress on my nostrils. Hope you guys found this review helpful.

Now set forth and be Savvy!

Hi Savvys!

I’m so happy to have received Influenster’s Covergirl Exhibitionist VoxBox. With Covergirl’s new success of becoming cruelty free, it sends a signal to other beauty companies that as consumers, this is what we want! We don’t want our products tested on animals while we still want the same quality expected from these large companies.

With the launch of this VoxBox to help socialize Covergirl’s new cruelty free status, the products for review include the Exhibitionist mascara, liquid eyeliner and lipstick.

The mascara: there’s been so much hype about this Exhibitionist Mascara that I had developed high hopes for it. I decided not to curl my lashes before apply it because I wanted to see how it would hold up to my straight and stubby lashes. I was a bit disappointed because it didn’t make my lashes look any thicker than how they usually look. I was impressed however that it was able to curl my lashes and make it look slightly different.

The liquid eyeliner: you definitely need to have a steady hand if you are not used to liquid liners. It had been a few years since the last time I tried liquid liners and I must say I loved it. It went on smoothly and dried pretty quickly. I really helped completed my look along with my mascara for an overall finished look.

The lipstick: I LOVE this lipstick! It glides on smoothly and is such a luscious shade of red. I will definitely be wearing this shade in the future.

Hope you guys found this review helpful. As someone who doesn’t wear makeup often, it was very helpful to have received all 3 products to help me complete my look for any occasion. I do have to say I will definitely be thinking about applying this more in my daily routine!
