Get UNJUNKED with UNREAL Candy

Well, it's official- I love being a BzzAgent! This time I was chosen to try UNREAL candy, a new candy brand that is better for you than the brand name candy. UNREAL candy contains NO corn syrup, NO partially hydrogenated oil, NO artificial ingredients, NO GMOs and NO preservatives. So its no secret that it truly is better for you than our traditional candy brands.
When I got my coupons in the mail I began the hunt for these candies. They are being picked up by more and more stores, but the only place I could find them in my town was at Staples-of all places, right?! Anyways, I chose three candies- Unreal 41 (comparable to M&Ms), Unreal 5 (comparable to Milky Way), and Unreal 77 (comparable to Reeses PB cups).

After buying my candy, I bought their brand name counterparts and headed over to my boyfriend's house to have him and his roommates help me out!
First, I set up all the candy on plates and split it up into four pieces so we could each compare them...

Kyle was up first-

His thoughts:
Unreal 41 vs m&ms- He liked them both, but thought that the Unreal 41 chocolate insides tasted like hot chocolate, which he loved. If given the choice, he would choose Unreal 41 over m&ms!
Unreal 5 vs Milky Way- He could not tell a differece at all. He would choose the Unreal 5 because of the healthier ingredients.
Unreal 77 vs Reeses- Kyle did not like the Unreal 77, especially compared to the Reeses cups. The chocolate was not sweet enough with the peanut butter filling, he said.

Next came Cody-

Unreal 41 vs m&ms- Cody thought these both tasted the same! He really couldn't tell me differences between the two!
Unreal 5 vs Milky Way- After comparing the two, he thought that Unreal 5 was chewier than the Milkway Way, which was neither good nor bad. Taste wise, though, he did not notice a difference.
Unreal 77 vs Reeses- This was the only instance where Cody clearly preferred the name brand, Reeses. He said Unreal 77 was "not bad, but nothing special."

Lastly, Dallas-

Unreal 41 vs m&ms- The shell tasted and felt the same to him, but he agreed with Kyle who said the Unreal tastes a little like hot chocolate.
Unreal 5 vs Milky Way- He said they tasted exactly the same, but thought the Unreal was a little bit harder in texture than the Milky Way.
Unreal 77 vs Reeses- Before testing these two, Dallas told me that he loves Reeses Peanutbutter Cups, so I was sure he would prefer the name brand... But he didn't! He said he liked the Unreal even more.
Photobucket
All in all, they liked the Unreal about equally as much as the brands they grew up with, and in some cases they liked it even more! I asked them if they would choose Unreal or name brands if they had the choice of two and they were the same price, and each of them chose Unreal for 2 out of the 3 candies they tried.

Kiss Nail Dress-Fashion That Sticks


As a member of Influenster I got to test out Kiss Nail Dress because of my Love VoxBox! I think Kiss Nail Dress is way better than Sally Hansen nails. Now having tried both, Kiss Nail Dress is clearly the favorite. They seem more sturdy and less likely to peel off. They're also easier to put on because they're a little thicker and not so flimsy. I also love that there are large ones included for toes! There's also some texture on them which is very cool.
Nail Dress lasts up to 10 days and is available in 18 styles, some of which have 3D jewels on them! Each package contains 28 strips, and they suggest you cut up your extras to create designs that can be used on top of polished or artificial nails. Nail Dress doesn’t dry out, so you can save them, and a nail design booklet is included in each package for inspiration.
These retail for $6.99 (most affordable mani/pedi ever!!!!) and can be found at major drug stores and retail chains. I have seen them myself at Walgreens and Walmart.

Venus & Olay Razor: Two Brands Team Up to Create Seriously Smooth Legs!

I recently signed up to be an Influenster, and got my first VoxBox- The LOVE VoxBox! If you are not an Influenster, you should be- check it out here at www.influenster.com.

Anyways, in my VoxBox there were several awesome goodies for me to test out and tell my friends about. One of my favorite things was the Venus & Olay Razor. I love Venus razors, and I love Olay body products, so how could I not love the razor they teamed up on? It seriously requires no shaving lotion, and the blades cut close to leave my legs smooth and silky.

The razor retails around $9, and that is so worth it. I have been using mine for over a week and the 5-bladed razor still works great. The head swivels to make shaving around knees and ankles a breeze. The Olay Moisture Bars contain petrolatum, which helps lock in skin's moisture, and Glycerine that makes your legs glow! The handle has grips, so being slippery is not an issue.

Smarterer

As a Bzzagent, I got to sign up for Smarterer, a website that's kind of like a game. It's filled with quizzes about things you do online like BzzAgent, Facebook, Gmail and much more like Disney Movies, Harry Potter, 80's trivia, etc. With each question answered correctly your Smarterer score goes up, and with each wrong answer it goes down.
At first it's pretty fun, but after a while the questions get repetitive in some categories, and it gets a little boring. It would be more fun if everybody was playing and it was more competitive, but so far not many of my friends have signed up.
One benefit to Smarterer is learning about categories as you go. I learned a few things about BzzAgent that I hadn't known even after being an active member for several months.


You should try it out and see for yourself- there's probably a category for you! I've reached Expert level for BzzAgent, and I'm a Facebook Master. Once you get bored with answering questions, make up a few yourself to add to the mix!
