Influenster Essie Unboxing & Review!

I have been with Influenster for over a year, and have started recieving product from them since the start. It was only recently I decided instead of reading everyone's reviews about the product we were given I would make a blog about my thoughts, experiences and true feelings with these items.

Influenster is not a monthly subscription box. It is a social media based promotional company that sends out samples of new product to social media's most influential members! These products will also be in future subscription boxes and are already available in stores for your enjoyment!

I was chosen to receive the Essie Influenster VoxBox on Sunday evening, and it was in my mailbox by Wednesday! Talk about fast shipping! There is no better feeling then opening your mailbox to find a box full of goddies!

What I received:

1 Essie Apricot Cuticle Oil

1 Essie Good to Go Top Coat - Rapid dry + Shine

1 Essie Nail Laquer - Bikini so teeny #764

1 Essie Nail Laquer - Licorice #720

I was a little too excited when I got this box, so I tried on both colours togther! I have no patience when it comes to things like this, I wanted to see what the colours looked like on, and I was in need of a small mani so why not!

I eneded up using the Bikini so teeny as my main colour of choice, it is a lighter blue which is nice for spring time (which I hope is coming soon!) and the Licorice as my accent nail! I was not sure how this pair would work together, but they came out great! The Bikini so teeny was a light colour going on so I put on 3 coats to be safe, but the Licorice being so bold in colour only took 2 coats and has a brialliant shine (even before top coat) Check it out!

I couldnt have done a perfectly looking mani and polish job without my best friend to help me! Thanks steph it looks amazing!

For the top coat I used the Good to go Rapid Dry + Shine I recieved in the box (Pictured above). I hate waiting for nails to dry, it takes to long and I always seem to smudge one from being impatient! So I gave this one a try, and it stayed true to its name! It was rapid! I was able to continue on with my life only minutes after applying it. It has left my nails nice a shiny, and strong. This is a must have for any polish lover or when your in a pinch for time!

Once all done I used the Apricot cuticle oil (Pictured above). I suffer from CWHS which is Canadian Winter Hands Syndrome (yes I made that up but its a painful reality), the awful dry and cracked hands that never get better, no matter how much you moisturize! This meant one thing for my cuticles, they were dry, and often cracked! This oil went on oily, who knew right?!? but was quickly absorbed and kept my cuticles hydrated all day, even throughout all the hand washing! This is another must have for healthy looking hands, especially in our dry, cold Canadian winters!

So thank you Influenster and Essie Canada for the free products, and allowing me to review them. It was fun afternoon of trying new products and will continue to keep using them with my nail car routine! If you LOVE Essie, let them know, post your favorite colour, or Essie product and use #essienailedit and tag @essiecanada so they can see it!
