Maybelline Vox Box - Influenster

I got picked for the Maybelline Vox Box. I signed up for the vox box because honestly, I rarely ever get picked for vox boxes. I don't know if it's because I don't have a huge reach or maybe it is the way I answer my snaps, I don't know.   I'm surprised the campaign was still open when I signed up because I had gotten the email a few days prior and forgot to sign up.  Number 90 - Warm Honey was still available.  It looked as if it may be the closest to my skin tone.   

When I received the vox box, I knew immediately that the shade was not going to work, but I tried it anyway.  Sadly, it made me look ashy.  I didn't feel comfortable posting the picture to my Instagram because the shade just didn't match my skin tone.  It did go on smoothly and I tested it out one Saturday for about 8 hours to see how long it lasted and surprisingly it lasted really well.  I really wished that it matched my skin tone, because I could really see using this foundation.  It wasn't cakey and it kept my oiliness at bay (which was awesome).  Perhaps, Maybelline will consider adding or testing out more shades for women of color.  I would be glad to test out another shade.  

Obligatory pictures of the foundation:


I received this free from Influenster for testing and review purposes.  All opinions are my own.
