5 Products I Was Influenced to Buy & My True Opinion of Them

I think we can all admit we have been 'influenced' to purchase at least one item we have seen promoted on Instagram of Facebook. Maybe it's that cute top you saw your fav blogger wearing or a killer mascara you saw on Sephora's Instagram. Sometimes the purchase is a total win and other times it lets you down. We've all been there and I wanted to share 5 products I was influenced to buy and what I really think of them. I ranked these products from best to worst using the 5 star rating system. Yes, this is pretty official.


Billie Razor $9
This is the best razor I have ever used in my life. I seriously look forward to shaving with my purple Billie. The razor is so sharp and gets right down to the skin without any cuts. My legs have never been so smooth. I heard about this product from Small Girls PR. If you do not have a Billie razor, order one now. You will love it too.

Ice Roller  $11.99
I love a fun and effective beauty tool. I heard about ice rollers from one of my favorite bloggers, Grace Atwood. I have used it a handful of times since ordering mine and I have definitely seen some pretty awesome results. The next day after using the ice roller, I noticed my skin looked brighter and tighter.

Lancôme Monsieur Big Mascara Mini $12
It has been a while since I ventured to a new mascara since the L'Oreal Voluminous Lash Paradise is my holy grail. I was influenced to pick up the mini version of Monsieur Big to try out for myself when Kristin Johns was raving about it. Let me tell you, she was not wrong. My lashes have never been longer! The formula does not clump and makes lashes crazy long after one coat. Two coats and my lashes looked unreal.
4 Stars

First Aid Berry Ultra Repair BarriAIR Cream $30
First Aid Beauty is one of my favorite brands. I love their Ultra Repair Tinted Moisturizer. When I heard about this cloud-like moisturizer that was highly recommended, once again by Kristin Johns, I went to my local Sephora and picked it up the next day. When I purchased this product, it was winter so my skin was on the dry side. The formula was so light and moisturizing, and a little goes a long way. The formula does not feel greasy, does not clog my pores, and makes my skin feel so soft and dewy. Once spring hit, my skin was back to normal and this cream, even though so light, was too much for my skin. It made my skin too moist and oily. I still love this product, but I only use it during colder months. I am sure once winter comes, this will be added back to my regime.
3.5 Stars

Flamingo Face Wax Kit $10
I was pretty excited to try this product. It has been heavily promoted on Instagram and the influencers made it looks so easy to use. I first learned about this at-home wax kit from Katie Sturino. I tried it more than once, and each time the wax was just a sticky goo. Maybe it was user error, but I followed the directions to the T so it could have also been a bad batch. I ended up emailing the company and they gave me a refund. The one fun thing about this product is the packaging. I love good packaging.
1 Star

I would love to know if you have been influenced to buy any of these products or others? Where the products what you hoped they would be?
