Influenster and YSL

August 15, 2015 By Shann 58 Comments

In the interest of reaching my July/August goals, I have been looking for ways to reach out to companies, brands, and products. I found a great site through a fellow blogger called Influenster.

From their website, Influenster  is a product discovery platform that guides our members to products that suit their interests and needs, as well as how to use them. We provide crowdsourced opinions on products through our reviews and take it one step further with full-sized product sampling in our exclusive VoxBox campaigns.

You don’t even need to have a blog to sign up! You just must be willing to give your honest reviews on products (which you’ll receive for FREE!) and share them with your Social Media Followers. Super easy…and a lot of fun.

For my first VoxBox, I was really excited to receive a Yves Saint Laurent box with YSL Touche Eclat Blur Primer and Perfector. As I mentioned earlier, I received these products free of charge. Hooray!

Even though I haven’t reviewed any beauty products on my blog yet, I know all my readers, including you parents out there, like to look beautiful too. I thought I would show you how the products work, rather than just write a review.  This also gives me a chance to work on my “Vlogging” skills (a video blog.)

YSL Touche Eclat Blur Perfector

 

To be honest, I don’t wear much make-up most days. Between getting up super early with the kids, changing diapers, running errands, and breaking up fights, there’s not much time to have a great beauty routine. However, if I’m going out at night with the ladies or if I have a fundraising event, I want to look my best. These YSL products are perfect for that!

So, here we go…hope you like my Vlog.

And an up close and personal look:

      I actually didn’t realize how expensive the products were, but they are really, really nice.

    Oh my goodness!! I loved your vlog! I thought it was great and I hope you do more of them. I’ve heard really great things about YSL and I love how easy it seemed to go on your skin. Their product usually smells pretty good too. 🙂

    You did a great job vloggin. Although the products are expensive they look like they be worth it. Maybe worth the investment if you are not using all the time.

    I grew up in strict Catholic girls schools where wearing make up was forbidden. As an adult, I guess I never found a need for it. I guess it is never too late to try! I would also be giving Influenster a look. Thanks for sharing.
