Jurassic World, Fallen Kingdom


Rating ๐Ÿ’—๐Ÿ’—๐Ÿ’—๐Ÿ’—๐Ÿ’—

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 myself, but as love tends to do and it does this a lot with me, I put my fears aside and risked it all for my tiger. I braced myself, snuggled and got to watching.

The movie starts off in the wild. The island where they had the dinosaurs in Jurassic World has a problem, an active volcano that is going to kill off all of them unless humans step in and help. The idea they have come up with is to transport the animals off of the island and to safe ground. Piece of cake, right? They enlist the help of both of the main characters from Jurassic World to do this and a few new faces. Jeff Goldbum is also back for this movie.

I won't go farther into the plot than that, but I have to say that the movie seriously surprised me. It was nothing like The Lost World. We saw quite a few homage moments to the original movie which die hard JP fans will enjoy and honestly it turned out to be very entertaining. The graphics are great and the plot is believable. There was no bad taste left in my mouth from it like I expected. I'm really glad I saw it and would recommend it. After the movie ended I realized how great it was that my boyfriend gave me the little push I needed to see this movie, we both ended up really liking it and happy. You can't ask for more than that.

NYX Plump It Up Lip Plumper in Kim

Rating ๐Ÿ’—๐Ÿ’—๐Ÿ’—๐Ÿ’— 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...

Kerastase Aura Botanica Hair Care Set.

Rating ๐Ÿ’—๐Ÿ’—๐Ÿ’—๐Ÿ’—๐Ÿ’— 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 ...

Pixie by Petra Eyeshadow in Ornamental Orchid

  Rating: ๐Ÿ’—๐Ÿ’—๐Ÿ’—๐Ÿ’—๐Ÿ’— 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!
