Quaker Soft Baked Banana Nut Bar

I'd show you mine....but I ate it!


I got to try one of the yummy soft baked bars when I opened my Influenster Summer Voxbox about a month ago. Honestly, it was the first thing I tried! I love when they include a sweet treat! But this has been by far the tastiest thing they've sent!

What I say:

Well, I said it! SO yummy! I like that they have so many good things in it too! And only 3.5g fat! Eating it, I thought there was no way this would be a good treat! Yeah! I haven't bought any yet, but I plan too!!! I think my kids will love these too---which is always a big bonus for me! Price is great too!

Have you tried this? What flavors do you like?

Hawaiian Tropic Silk Hydration Lotion Sunscreen

Hey everyone! I got this product I was sent weeks ago from Influenster, a site you just have to check out if you haven't already! I got a box full of free goodies and here's one thing I wanted to rave to you about!



What they say:

"Hawaiian Tropic Silk Hydration Lotion Sunscreen SPF 30

Also available in SPF 12, 30, 50!
With its ultra-luxurious hydrating silk ribbons, Hawaiian Tropic Silk Hydration™ lotion sunscreen nourishes and pampers skin while providing broad spectrum UVA and UVB protection, and 12-hour moisturization when out in the sun.
 Where to Buy
You can find Hawaiian Tropic products at most major retailers.
Suggested retail price: $8.99 for a 6oz bottle"



What I say:

 All day outside at the pool with my kids and no burned skin? Amazing! I have fair skin and don't tan well...but boy do I burn well! That is amazing! I have used other brands before and have still come home with sunburns on my face and shoulders!

It doesn't smell like the typical sunscreen scent. It smells like a great body lotion I'd want to put on anyway.

 It was very moisturising, so I didn't even need to use lotion. No sun burn for me!

Some people don't care about packaging, but it's def something I enjoy! The product is easy to squeeze out, I love the ribbons of color, and it's not outrageously priced!

The verdict:

I will purchase this over and over again!
