Best ever oatmeal! ... and other amazing products

I tried a few of my VoxBox products and want to share an update. Quaker Real Medleys Oatmeal is (and I'm not even kidding) THE best oatmeal I've ever had. I'm not a big oatmeal person but this was delicious! It is a step up from the "peaches n cream" flavored oats you typically think of with Quaker. This is for grown ups! :) I grabbed this for my lunch the other day and it was easy to make at work. Just add a little water and microwave less than a minute. This is a nice warm and toasty lunch in the winter when it is cold and snowy out! Would I recommend this? Absolutly! I will be buying and trying their other flavors. I checked it out on Amazon.com, and they have 4 different kinds. I can't believe I'm this excited about oatmeal!


I also tried out the Kiss Nail Dress 'nail stickers.' The pros: they looked pretty good and they were quick and easy to apply. I'm fairly artsy, but even I wouldn't be able to do my nails this good in about a 5-10 minute time frame. My favorite part? You don't have to wait for your nails to dry! I HATE spending time painting my nails just to bump them and ruin them while waiting for them to dry. This product is great because you stick, file, and go. The cons: I only have one complaint... they don't last long. I wore them for about 24 hours before they started peeling. I would still recommend these if you want to do your nails for a special occasion or don't expect to wear them more than a day or so. I would buy these again too. They're just too easy and look great. According influenster.com, you can get them for $6.99 at Kmart, CVS, Walgreens, Walmart, Rite Aid, and Target. So go buy them!
 

Last but not least (for now) my new favorite lip gloss! NYC New York Color Liquid Lipshine. I got the color "Nude York City" in my VoxBox and have been wearing it for about two weeks. It is great because it adds some shine and shimmer without color. I don't like lip products with too much color so this is perfect for me. It also doesn't get sticky and wears a long time. I think it smells good  too! This is in my purse now at all times. These pictures don't really do it justice.
