Sugar n' Spice voxbox from Influenster

I just received my 2nd voxbox full of fun new things to try out for influenster! I am going to tell you about the products in this post and after I have tried each product, I will update. The first thing I noticed in this box is the Colgate Optic White toothbrush,toothpaste, and mouthwash! I LOVE THIS STUFF! I already use it faithfully and am so excited to get some for free! It really does help me to have a whiter smile. I will write more about this product in a later blog. The next thing I noticed was the Nectresse by Splenda no calorie sweetener. I already use sugar twin on a regular basis, but will be replacing that with the Nectresse over the next couple of weeks so that I can compare the 2. I am a HUGE fan of Sugar Twin, so I am not sure I will like anything better, but we will see. Also in the box was a package of Cinnamon Brown Sugar Belvita breakfast biscuits. I am not too sure about these. They kind of look like pieces of cardboard, but I will be trying them as well. I will make myself try them even though they don't look very appetizing! :) There was also a box of Dickinson's oil controlling towelettes with botanical extracts. I am excited to try these! I have tried other brands of wipes in the past and have not been really pleased with their performance, so I am interested to see how these work. The last thing in the box was a bottle of Vaseline's spray on moisturizer. It claims that it dries very fast and that you can get dressed easily right after application. So, after I try each of these products I will give you further information on what I think of them!

Kroger Good For You campaign

This most recent campaign from Bzz Agent was for the Kroger CarbMaster and Kroger Greek Yogurts and Kroger CarbMaster milk drink. I got a $10 gift card to purchase these items. I bought the CarbMaster milk and 2 flavors of the CarbMaster Yogurt (Cinnamon Roll and White Chocolate Raspberry). I was extremely skeptical about the CarbMaster milk drink. Anything called "milk drink" can't be good,right? RIGHT!!! It brags about being lower in sugar and carbs than regular milk, but it doesn't brag about how it tastes. There is a reason for that! It is terrible! I tried it first in my mashed potatoes because I wasn't brave enough to actually drink it. It wasn't bad in those because you don't really taste it anyway. I guess if you want a way to make healthier potatoes that would work. I eventually worked up the courage to actually taste the milk and it was not good! It didn't taste like milk which is why, I suppose, that it is called a "milk drink". Also this stuff is really expensive! It is 4.59 for a half gallon, which is even more than my favorite Smart Balance milk which is 3.99! So, I definitely wouldn't pay for this so called "milk drink". If you had to drink low carb milk for some kind of special diet, I suppose this would do the trick though! Next we come to the yogurt. The Cinnamon Roll flavor was GREAT! It really tasted like a cinnamon roll, but it was very dry. It was similar to Greek Yogurt in that aspect, which is one reason I am not a huge fan of Greek Yogurt and I didn't buy any for this campaign. The flavor of the White Chocolate Raspberry was not quite as good as Cinnamon Roll, but it wasn't bad. It still had the same dryness though. So, I guess I am not a huge fan of this new "CarbMaster" line of products from Kroger, but, like I said, if you have to be on a low sugar or low carb diet these products would be helpful!
