College vox box items

Like I mentioned in my previous post, the first free shipment I received from influenster was the college vox box. The items it contained were: (1)black gel pen by Pentel, a whole roll of tropical fruit waffers by Necco, press on nails (Impress Manicure) by Broadway Nails, (1) eyeliner in black with glitter(Show Time Eyes) by NYC., and energy strips by Sheets Energy Strips. I have had these items for about a week and have tried everything except the press on manicure nails, which I will be trying out this weekend. I will later put my review on these nails along with pictures. I will start with the gel pen. I love it! The ink is a very deep vibrant black color. And it dries pretty quick and this is good because there practically no smear off marks. It is also very comfortable to wrote with.
Now let me talk about the teopical fruit waffers from Necco. I am not too crazy about these. These have a very different texture to any other candies I have had. Its kind of chalky. Some of the waffers taste like medicine. And the green lime flavor taste what I would imagine a floor cleaning product might taste. BUT, co workers and family members and myself really enjoyed some of the other flavors. The favorite all around was the strawberry, followed by coconut, mango, banana, and passion fruit.

Now the energy strips. These dissolve in your tounge just lile the breath strips. And also have a minty taste. But they do have a not so pleasant bitter aftertaste. That being said, I do think they work. I felt active and morw awake without feeling jittery or weired. I personally would buy these if they didnt have that aftertaste.
The NYC SHOW TIME EYES eyeliner. I have a mixed review about this. I like that the color is very well pigmented and soft and easy to apply. Ot doesnt feel scratchy or rough when applying like other glittered eye pencils I have used. What I don't lile is how fast the liner smears away or rather fades away.
