Go VoxBox!!! Featuring... Next Step Fit n' Full, #GoProFoot, and #MullerQuaker!

That's right, folks!!! I qualified for another VoxBox compliments of Influenster!!! ( This is my second VoxBox, my first was for the reformulated Rimmel Moisture Renew Lipstick check out my thoughts here!) This box is called the Go VoxBox, and it was filled with all kinds of fun "active lifestyle" goodies!!! I was super excited for this Voxbox and all it's contents, howeverrrrr... Some stood out more than others. And some kinda just fell flat. Here are my thoughts starting with the stuff I LOVED...
Next Step Fit n' Full 
I received three Next Step shake packets in French Vanilla (Ok), Fresh Berries (No!), and Swiss Chocolate (Yes ma'am!!!) and a Next Step Jaxx shaker cup. It just so happens I was in the market for a shaker cup and this one was perfect (not to mention, I didn't have to pay for it). As for the shakes... I have to say I was impressed. The Swiss Chocolate was definitely the best flavor by far. There was a slight aftertaste (as with most meal replacement shakes) but it was least offensive with the vanilla and chocolate flavors. I drank these shakes for an on-the-go breakfast before work and they really kept me feeling full and curbed my hunger until lunchtime. You can purchase them in a large tube or individual packets. The convenient packet-size is very travel friendly. Overall, I'd consider buying these in the future. Don't believe me, check out some other reviews for yourself here...
Blue Diamond Almonds Blueberry Oven Roasted Almonds
I had NOOOOOO clue Blue Diamond made these. Let alone that they come in Strawberry and Raspberry also. Really, not much needs to be said. If you like almonds, and you like berry flavored things... You'll LOVE these. Go get you some!!!
Aqua Spa Lavender-Chamomile Bath Soak
I must admit, I wasn't expecting much from this. For one, I'm not into baths. Second, lavender is not a scent I am usually fond of. Also, I assumed this was one of those soaks that just absorbed into the water to moisturize your skin... I was wrong. The scent is really light and not overpowering and nauseating... At all. PLUS this created some serious bubbles. I was surprised. Pleasantly surprised.
Playtex Sport Fresh Balance
Tampons. There's not too much I can say about a tampon. Always useful for any girl. I am partial to unscented products, but these weren't bad. They didn't have that disgusting floral smell that belongs NOWHERE near a vagina. IJS. It's unnatural for it to smell like roses. Boys, take note. If it does, she's hiding something. ;-) Off topic. Anyways... These are decent I'd purchase them if they were on sale. But truth be told, I prefer my U by Kotex.
Pro Foot Triad Orthotic Insole and Pedi Rock
The item I was most excited for, the Pedi-Rock. I couldn't wait to try this. But after one use and as of this post, I'm confused... Was this supposed to happen:
The little "scrubbies" (that's the technical term, I swear), just scrubbed right off. And this picture was taken immediately after my first use. Soooo by my calculations... This product will not last too long. And I didn't find that this did anything to help smooth my feet. Lastly, the shape of it just felt awkward in my hand. I think I shall stick with my trusty Mr. Pumice Pumi Bar. The shoe inserts worked great. I used them in my work shoes and they definitely made a difference. They provided support and comfort. But the best part is that they are one-size-fits-all. No scissors or trimming needed, just slip them right into your shoes and get to steppin'. 
Müller Greek Corner Yogurt
I received a coupon to redeem for a free muller product and I chose the Greek Corner Yogurt in Blackberry & Raspberry. Now I'm gonna be completely honest. This was just... Meh. I mean... It's yogurt, so you can't really ruin it... But I much prefer the Chobani Flip yogurts. They have soooo many great flavors (like this one... or this one... or this one!) And that's where I found the Muller brand to fall flat. There just wasn't a decent flavor selection, In my opinion. Come on Muller!!! Get some stuff to compete with brands like Chobani! Then we can reevaluate...
So there you have it! My thoughts on all the items I received compliments of Influenster for testing purposes! Have you had a different experience with anything mentioned??? Let me know! Until next time...
