Touch In Sol | No Problem Primer (Review)

Image
 Product Summary: The pore minimizing formula of this face primer tightens pores and gives a lifting effect to dull and saggy skin. It also helps minimize the appearance of wrinkles, fine lines; and smooth skin texture so that it avails skin to be seamless. Cost: $17.99  I first received this product in a Ipsy bag which is a monthly beauty subscription service where you get 5 items from sample to full size for around 30$ Canadian.  ***Cruelty free*** I have some fine lines around my eyes like everyone else and unfortunately when applying concealer it will settle into said fine lines so a good primer that helps my pores and fine lines is a must in my makeup routine.  I love how quickly this primer works to lift and smooth my under eyes. It clearly makes applying concealer a lot easer. If only I could turn this primer into a tinted version I would be able to skip a couple steps in my makeup routine.  It comes to no surprise that the primer is made in Korea because...

Not Part Of The Plan By: Lucy Score (Book Review)

Image
 ***This review will contain spoilers*** Summary:  A womanizing bad boy with a motorcycle and sexy-as-sin smile is not part of Emma’s life plan. She moved cross-country to be close to family and finally settle down in hippie, trippy, nosey Blue Moon Bend. But when famed fashion photographer Niko shows up with his leather jacket, underwear-melting voice, and a problem, she sees nothing but trouble. He’s all wrong for Emma, but that doesn’t stop the attraction from boiling over. Niko doesn’t let being friend zoned get in his way. Once he gets his hands—and his mouth—on her, will their friendship survive? Or will he lose everything he’s worked for back in New York to the redhead who dominates his every thought? I swear God is giving me signs after signs because here is another book that called out to me while I was grocery shopping and ta-da! It's another romance novel but this one also hits home in a different manner. I used to never purchase any books while grocery shopping. I ...

Dermal | Collagen Essence Mask Review

Image
 Product Summary: I found this assorted 12 pack from TJ Maxx for $9.99 USD. This assorted pack contains hyaluronate, rose, strawberry, green tea, seaweed, collagen, pomegranate, red ginseng, royal jelly, vitamin, pearl and snail. They are meant to sooth the skin, moisturize, brighten and firm the skin.  ***Not Cruelty Free*** As it happens every winter season, my skin desperately screams for moisture. Especially, this past winter with rejoining the gym I've needed to prioritize skincare above anything else. The easiest and fastest way to get a boost of hydration? Sheet masks!  I absolutely love using sheet masks and one way I like using them is wearing them while I sleep. It ensures I get maximum hydration benefits and of course hen there is serum left over I will use it the following days afterwards.  This is going to be a short review but that is a testament to how well these sheet masks worked. As I have repeated time and time again, I have really sensitive skin s...

Wonder Woman 1984 (Movie Review)

Image
 ***This review will contain spoilers*** Summary: In 1984, Diana Prince struggles against two powerful enemies- Maxwell Lord and The Cheeta whose ruthless ambitions threaten to destroy the world that she has sworn to protect.  If you aren't well versed in DC comics and in the many characters that surround Diana then this movie would be considered really good and probably one of the better superhero movies if not the best female superhero movie. Alas, that's not the case for me and I absolutely hate it when movie studios will take vital characters and switch up their origin to either make them palatable to the general public or to make them fit a story.  First and foremost, Cheetah has such an amazing backstory. Her origin story would have been a million times better than Barbara simply wishing to be an apex predator. In the comics, she is an archeologist who is obsessed with Greek mythology (hence being close to Diana) she goes on a trip to Africa and encounters the plant...

Undertone (Movie Review)

Image
 ***This review will contain spoilers*** Summary: The host of a popular paranormal podcast becomes haunted by terrifying recordings mysteriously sent her way. This was definitely an interesting scary movie but not a traditional paranormal movie. I found it to be more of a psychological thriller more than anything else. While there were some paranormal aspects to the story it felt more like things that can be explained away if you were a skeptic.  One thing that I couldn't help but pick up on was first with the previews there were a couple movies that had the name Mother Mary or some variation of it in the movie title which clearly the movies had nothing to do with her and then in this movie there was a bastardized figurine that kept popping up. It's as if Hollywood and the Satanists who run it can't help but keep mocking her. The more I'm reading my Bible and getting closer to Christ, the more I'm seeing how truly evil this world is even in something as simple as a ...
