I received the Influenster GoVoxBox to review the products. All opinions are 100% mine. So far, this VoxBox has been the most useful I've received, as some of these products will definitely be put to good use-especially now with my new fitness and health plan! Here is what I thought of each individual product:
Vitamin Shoppe Next Step Fit N Full Protein Shake: I haven't had the chance to try these yet but they look really good. I'm impressed with the packaging and the information on it, as well as the cute mixer cup!
Playtex Sport Fresh Balance: I really like these! I received a box in my last VoxBox and have since actually bought some of them as well! They're comfortable and they stay in place without irritation!
Blue Diamond Blueberry Flavored Almonds: These were delicious! Such a great little snack that helps with your sweet tooth without being too many calories and still with the health benefits of almonds!
Aqua Spa Bath Salts: These were PERFECT! I took a bath with them the other day and they smell lovely (Lavender) without being overpowering. It was great to just soak in the bath and feel relaxed without an over-perfumed smell. They were light and soft, and my skin felt great after!
ProFoot Pedi Rock: I'd never tried a Pedi Rock before so after my bath I broke it out of the packaging and gave my feet a good rub down with it. It did take off a lot of the rough spots, though it's not harsh enough to get the more problem areas. I think if you keep up with your feet better and use this often it would be great.
ProFoot Triad Orthotic: This was seriously my favorite (and most used) thing in the box. Recently I found out that my heel pain is from Planter Fasciitis and was told by my doctor that I need to be wearing inserts that cushion my arches better. He also said that for at least the next few weeks/months I'm not allowed to be barefoot even walking around the house-that is a huge bummer for someone who loves being barefoot as much as I do.
I had already picked up some fancy inserts for my gym shoes a while back, so we went to a local sporting good store on the mission of finding something I could actually slip into my little shoes so I wasn't wearing my running shoes everywhere-including just from the couch to the bathroom. I bought some gel inserts but they did not fit in the shoes (the size was totally off on the packaging) and ended up not being great. Then I remembered I had these-and they're exactly what I needed!
They fit right in my little shoes without squishing my toes, and I've been wearing them for 3 days now and my heel pain has significantly decreased! I'm totally taking the gel ones back and will probably buy from ProFoot in the future-they're perfect! The only thing I'm worried about is squishing them so they flatten out after a while, since they're pretty much all foam-but it hasn't happened yet so here's hoping!
