Pixie by Petra Eyeshadow in Ornamental Orchid

  Rating: 💗💗💗💗💗 This has to be the creamiest powder eyeshadow I've ever seen! I love the feel and texture and the colors are very nice. It's a good mini travel palette if you get it like this and these particular colors are very neutral and friendly to most skin colors and tones. It has good staying power and both shades blend together beautifully on the lid. The only thing I didn't like was that i had to pack a good amount of the brown on my lid to get the shade you see in the photos and video, but I really did enjoy this eyeshadow and will definitely use it again!

NYX Plump It Up Lip Plumper in Kim

Rating 💗💗💗💗 I am a big fan of NYX. The brand has good, high quality products at affordable prices which is something we could all use, am I right? Their Plump It Up lip plumpers are something I had never tried though and I recently got the chance to buy these babies and take them for a test drive. I gotta say, I really like them! They are not high pigmented, it's more of a sheer color when you put them on, it barely has color, they sting as all lip plumpers fo and I read a review or two of people saying that they threw them out because they burned so badly... I'm not sure of they are just sensitive to the sensation and can't take it or if they had a reaction, but I assure you, it doesn't tingle or sting more than any other plumper out there. It also has normal results on the plumping, you get a little plumpness, nothing like getting fillers so, do not expect Angelina Jolie lips, but they give you a nice pout and it lasts a decent amount of time before y...

Ready Player One by Ernest Cline

Rating 💗💗💗💗 The book is a throwback to the 1980's that's set in 2044. The world as we know it has ceased to exist due to much chaos including overpopulation. Instead we now have people stacking up trailers and living in them, families can not take more space than what they actually need and most people are broke. The world is a mess and the one escape people living in it have is The Oasis. The Oasis is a virtual world where you can be, see and do anything you want. A vast ocean of worlds of many themes, although many of these worlds have two things in common, they are based on other video game worlds and they are greatly inclined towards the 80's. The day comes in which the creator of The Oasis dies and leaves a will in which he declares that he has hidden 3 keys in his virtual world, these 3 keys open a sort of Easter egg in the game (for those of you that are not gamers, an Easter egg is a bonus mini game that some video games have inside them) and whoever w...

Mizani Thermasmooth Style And Style Again Heat Activated Styling Cream.

Rating 💗💗💗💗 I was really surprised with this product. I expected it to be oily and heavy and it wasn't at all. My hair was easy to style and it held the look very well throughout the day, it was light and there was no oil or crispiness like with other products. I was happy to run my fingers through my hair and realize that it just felt soft and normal. I thought it was really nice that the next day I applied a little heat and was able to restyle perfectly without having to use any more product. It also controlled some of my frizz was an added bonus along with how wonderful it smells.

Kerastase Aura Botanica Hair Care Set.

Rating 💗💗💗💗💗 I am in LOVE with these hair care products that I recieved complementary to try. The set is valued at $110.00 and it's worth every shiny penny. Let me tell you about them. Aura Botanica Shampoo: The shampoo has a light fragrance that to me smells like sandalwood. The shampoo looks like a light syrup and has a very luxurious feel when you use it. I have to say, using it made me feel very pampered and left my hair super hydrated. Price $33.00 per 250 ml. Aura Botanica Conditioner: This one didn't smell like anything to me. It is a thick, scentless custard textured conditioner that feels as luxurious as the shampoo and really controlled my frizz. Price $40.00 for 200 ml.  Aura Botanica Blow Dry Hair Milk: I have to admit, I have used this for blow drying and even when I'm just letting my hair air dry. The product works wonders. I feel like my hair is smooth and silky and definitely looks so much better when I use it. It is ...

Jurassic World, Fallen Kingdom

Rating 💗💗💗💗💗 A link to see a trailer for this movie is at the end of the post. When I saw the preview for this I cringed. I'm a HUGE Jurassic Park fan. I've seen them all, read them all and even want it to be an archeologist one day so I could find and collect them all. Having said that, I can honestly say that part two of the series was not the best movie out there. Dino running loose in the wilderness = Awesome, but Dino running wild in the city = Meh. This movie in the previews gives you exactly that, dinosaurs roam the city, climb stars and rooftops, giving me flashbacks to The Lost World. Not again. Flash forward to today: My boyfriend is just as big of a Jurassic Park fan as I am, when we discussed what movie to see, first thing he said was "Jurassic World". "Ok, great. I'd definitely like to see that" was my reply while I internally rolled my eyes, I really wasn't trying to see this movie and ruin all of the series for mysel...

Maybelline Shine Compulsion Lipstick

Rating 💗💗💗💗💗 I received this product complementary for testing purposes. I was really excited to test this product out when I received it. The case is a really cute metallic color and is different in the way it opens from others since the case actually opens way at the bottom rather than halfway up. It's cute and classy. 😁 You open up the lipstick and it smells fantastic, that's definitely one of my favorite things about it. The lipstick is smooth and rich going on, you don't need to apply more than one coat, it glides on and looks perfect, glossy and very much like one of those super expensive lipsticks even though it's really not. Even with all the shine, it's not sticky at all, but actually smooth and nice, it feels moisturizing. I'm gonna seriously recommend this lipstick, it's really gonna be one of my go to favorites from now on.

Burger King's Spicy Chicken Nuggets

Rating 💗💗💗 I have always been a spicy chicken nugget fan. For years I've gone to Wendy's to have those yummy pebbles of goodness. When my boyfriend told me that Burger King had jumped into the game I was super excited.  I went straight for them, ordered a ten piece with honey mustard, ranch, sweet and sour and ketchup. I first tried them alone and really liked it, it had the perfect spiciness for a chicken nugget. Mine were juicy and pretty much perfect, but this really depends on the restaurant itself, how long the nuggets have been sitting in the warmer and a few other snall details. I then tried them with each sauce, one at a time. Ketchup and ranch were my top choices followed by honey mustard and sweet and sour taking the rear. Overall they werent bad at all, but I still prefer Wendy's simply because the crust has a little more crispiness, But a very good try from Burger King.

EOS (Evolution Of Smooth) Unique Skin-Friendly And Super Smooth Shave Cream for sensitive skin.

Rating 💗💗💗💗 So, right off the bat I'm gonna say it. I got this full size sample of EOS Shave Cream free to try (Yay!). I get lots of free stuff to try out and give opinions on so, you'll be seeing that disclaimer a lot here. Now, to the good stuff! I have a problem with razor burn, it's been something that has plagued me since I began shaving. I've tried all sorts of stuff to help it and few things seem to. I don't like electric shavers because they don't do as close and clean of a shave as these and although wax is good, it takes extra time that I sometimes just don't have. A lot of times I pull out the manual razor and get to it. I liked this shaving cream a lot. It has a good consistency and is smooth on. You shave like you normally would and then rinse off. There's really nothing special about it in that department, it's just another shaving cream. The after effects are what I was looking forward to anyway. About 2 to 3 hours after...

New post! 😮😮😮😮

Yeah, I'm not dead or gone lol. I started this blog when things weren't the best in my personal life and that was the wrong move. I'm now more committed than ever to it and if you're still with me, I'm still with you. The blog is not as helpful as I hoped it would be when I started it because it's pretty empty, but this is how they all start and soon we will have a large encyclopedia of products for anyone who wants to try new stuff! All new people that happen to land here, welcome. I'm going to be posting new things that I've tried out in all sorts of departments. Beauty items, food, clothing, household items and even websites will all be included on here. I'll be trying to post once a week at least, hopefully I can get 2 or 3 in per week if I have time. Come back and keep an eye out and you may find the product you've been wondering about up here with an honest review to help you decide if you want to really invest in it. I wanted this blog t...
