I was chosen to receive a free full size bottle of Dry Spray made by Unilever and provided by Influenster in a VoxBox. I didn’t know which brand or scent I was getting until I received and opened the box.

There’s a new product from the makers of NyQuil that I’ll get to try out soon. ZZZQuil! It comes in both liquid and liquicap form. If you’re a member of Vocalpoint, you can head over there and get a coupon for $3 off a purchase of ZZZQuil. Coupon is no longer available. They asked us to share these 5 sleeping tips.
