You can call me Meg.

Well I guess I'll start with introductions.. 
My name is Megan Walters. I am 25 years old. I was born and raised in Charleston, SC and I am still living there with my fiance and two four legged children. I'm sure you will get to know them better, because they all like to help me try out products! :)

Here's the whole family celebrating my birthday!


I have been blogging for a few months now, but I finally got around to creating my own blog! A friend introduced me to the world of sampling, reviewing and blogging and I got hooked! I really do enjoy being able to try new products (for free too!) and posting how they work, what I think about them and if I'd recommend them, in hopes that it will help others discover new products they love also!


I enjoy reviewing all kinds of things. I have reviewed health and beauty products, cleaning products, household items, snacks and food, vitamins and supplements, pet products, kitchen gadgets, water bottles, sleep masks, e-cigarettes, websites that let you make customized products, books.. I don't have a specific category. I just like to review products that interest me.


So I want to review products, now what??

So in almost all of my reviews you will notice something along the lines of "I received this product for testing and review purposes, compliments of _______". Unless I am just reviewing a product that I purchased (which I am going to start doing more) then there was a website that helped me get the product. As I said in my first post, here are some of the sites that I use most often, how to get started with them, and a brief explanation of how they work. Feel free to comment below if you have more helpful info to add or if you would like additional help with any of them.

The first one I started on was Influenster. Once you make your profile, you link all of your social media sites to it, start reviewing products on the site that you have already tried out or use, and at some point (patience is key on this site) you will start getting pre-surveys in your email. Take them as soon as possible, and you might just be qualified for their next VoxBox. A VoxBox is a box full of free goodies from multiple different brands. They usually have themes, for example, health, beauty, pets, parents. Once you get your goodies its time to spread the love on all of your social networks. You'll have tasks to complete and the more you do, the more likely you are to get more VoxBoxes! Yay!
