Influenster!

If you guys haven't heard of a website called "Influenster", you definitely need to take notice of it! Especially if you like receiving free items - I first joined three years ago, and since then, I have received 4-5 VoxBoxes that contain free full-sized samples of items that I can use, test, review and share.

Here's how it works:
  • you sign up on www.Influester.com
  • fill out the required questions and connect your account to your social media accounts (Instagram, Facebook, etc.) - the more friends and followers you have, the higher your social impact score will be.
  • review products that you have tested
  • become an expert in three subject areas to receive badges - write reviews, take surveys, answer questions
  • if you are selected for a campaign, you will be alerted on your dashboard. There's a certain time limit where you have to accept the campaign, check in your box when you receive it, review items/do specific tasks to receive brand badges, and fill out a concluding survey.
My favorite VoxBox was the College VoxBox where I received a free and complimentary box stuffed with samples from Influester that was geared towards college and university students. There was candy, deodorant, make-up, snacks, protein bar ... I was so surprised at the quality of the items that I knew this website was amazing!

I also think the Virtual VoxBox tasks are pretty neat, too. I feel like Influenster has had a few eBay tasks where I made collections and wrote guides that were published on eBay. In exchange for my efforts, I received gift cards to eBay from $10 and $25!

Not only does Influenster send out boxes, but they have products that are new and upcoming that the companies want the public to test. If you're among the general target audience, you definitely have a chance! I tried out Dishwasher soap, Dr. Scholl's gel inserts ... all amazing and all free! Definitely give it a try to see if you like it as much as I do!
