I received Celestial Seasonings Candy Cane Lane Decaf Green Tea from Influenster to taste and review ... so here it goes
I am normally not a fan of herbal teas. I am pretty much a black or green tea drinker ... a little sugar or a little honey and I am good to go. I went in thinking it's going to taste like liquid candy cane ... and while I do like peppermint ~ that did not sound appealing. Boy, was I pleasantly surprised at the just a hint of peppermint flavor and none of that "herby" taste from the past!! I added a little sugar and it's perfect! I also like that it is decaf and I can drink it as my before bed cup of tea!!
It is a holiday edition ~ so it may not be on the shelves now ... but get you some come the holidays this year!!!

Frosty Vox Box
I, again, was lucky enough to be chosen to receive a Vox Box from Influenster. I enjoy getting these boxes and trying out and reviewing the items in it! This time I received:
Rimmel Gentle Eye Makeup Remover ... I found this remover to be extra gentle on the delicate skin around my eyes. It is oil free and therefore a little watery ... but works great!!
Rimmel Scandaleyes Waterproof Kohl Kajal Eyeliner ... I'm going to be completely honest ... I am not an eyeliner kinda girl ... but I gave this a try. I found it to glide on easily ... now I just need to work on my application to make it work for me!!
NYC New York Color Expert Lip Color ~ Sugar Plum ... This shade is perfect for almost any skin tone and any occasion! It goes on smooth too!
Celestrial Seasoning Candy Cane Lane Decaf Green Tea ... I was pleasantly surprised with this tea. I don't usually enjoy herbal teas, but I make an exception with this flavor! Just a hint of peppermint ~ sweetened with a little sugar ~ yum!!! I also liked how it was decaf and I could drink it as my night time hot tea fix!!
Boots No. 7 Protect and Perfect Intense ADVANCED ... I didn't see much of a difference with using the small sample that was provided. It did feel nice going on. I am curious how well it works ~ so I am tempted to give a full sized bottle a try.
McCormick Gourmet All Natural Thyme ... Thyme is one of my favorite herbs. I throw it in soups, roasted potatoes and corn all of the time. This all natural thyme did not disappoint in it's flavor! I will definitely buy a new jar when this one is gone!
Fruit Vines Bites ~ Cherry ... My daughter loved these little chewy bites! The cherry flavor was present without being too strong. Just the right amount of sweetness to satisfy the afternoon sweet tooth! I can't wait to try the strawberry!!
EcoTools Sleek and Shine Hairbrush ... My daughter also claimed this brush as soon as I unpacked it from the box. She loves how it smooths down her hair in the mornings. It also doesn't pull too much which is another plus in her little 6 year old eyes!! I love it too!!
Overall, I am pleased with all of the items in the box ~ even the ones that I normally wouldn't use. I am grateful for the opportunity to give them a try and hope to receive another box in the future!
