A couple of weeks ago, I was sent the Carefree VoxBox from Influenster. I received a free bag of Carefree Acti-Fresh Body Shape Regular pantiliners. Each one is individually wrapped, so this little bag of 20 liners is great to keep on hand for travel or to pop in my purse. The Carefree Voxbox was …

March Empties: Success or Fail?
I haven’t done an empties post in forever, like about 9 months. In fact, I’ve saved all the empty containers so I can do a big empties post, one of these days, so I can really report on the brands that I repurchased over and over again. This post, however, will focus just on March …
