Have you signed up for a box full of new products from Sample Source yet? I eagerly look forward to each and every box, as there is always something in there that I add to my list of favorite products.
Many sample boxes these days seem to contain razors of one type or another. This one contained a Schick Hydro 5. The five blades ensure a close, smooth shave, while the built in nutrient enriched shaving gels do away with any chance of irritation.
The Boire Nose Strip is something I may not understand properly. I've tried nose strips in the past and they always appeared to have dark spots on them when you pulled them off, as if you had pulled the dirt out of your pores. This strip clung tightly to the skin and had to be eased off slowly, but I didn't see any difference on either my nose or the strip once it was removed. However, my nose did feel like the top layer of skin had just been peeled off, and I felt the need to moisturize it very soon afterwards, in an attempt to make it feel better. It just continued to sting for quite some time. I'm pretty sure I won't be buying this product, but others may find it does what they wanted it to do.
Jergens Ultra Care Extra Dry Skin Moisturizer, on the other hand, was exactly what I needed at this time of year. It's non-greasy, absorbs quickly and left my skin silky smooth.
John Frieda Luxurious Volume Shampoo lived up to it's name. Even in my hard water, it produced a luxurious lather. The companion conditioner didn't make my hair feel thin like many do, but rather it seemed to add body without making it too heavy to hold itself up.
Higgins & Burke Green Tea was a pleasant surprise. I'm definitely a tea drinker but I've never been fond of green teas. This one was not bad. In fact, I actually enjoyed it. That's really saying something. Though I doubt I'll ever replace my Orange Pekoe, I may consider stocking it for guests.
The Ice Breakers Duos are made by the Hershey company. These were a fruity flavour. I had a sample of minty ones in a previous package, and I much preferred those. In fact, I intend to buy some of the minty ones soon, to keep in my purse.
There was also a Hershey's Whole Almond bar. I passed that to my hubby as my body doesn't tolerate almonds. He enjoyed it, he said.
Kelloggs Special K Pastry Crisps are a nice light snack. They have real chocolate that melts on your fingers, which, in my books is a good thing. I found they had an interesting flavour and texture, and would be tempted to pick up some more from time to time.
One of the two products that I really liked out of this batch of samples was the Frizz Ease Secret Weapon, also by John Frieda. I tend to wash my hair most days, just to get it to look good, but a little touch of Frizz Ease and my hair not only perks right up and is good for another day, it also shines so beautifully I'm thinking I'd like that look every day!
Brookside Dark Chocolate Acai with Blueberry is another product I really loved. OMG these are just incredible! Such flavour! I fully intend to hunt down a bag of these as soon as possible. When I take a notion to eat chocolate, a few of these glossette type morsels will satisfy my craving, without causing me to feel guilty. I am satisfied so much more quickly by things that have more flavour. These certainly fit that description.
If you have not signed up for Sample Source, go here and do so now, so you will be on the list to get the next box of goodies. This program is all about letting you try before you buy. It works for me!
