Saint Luxe| Highlighter (Review)

Image
 Product summary: This highlighting powder is a must have! Unleash your inner goddess with the lightweight, iridescent, and super buildable formula. It compliments every skin tone and can be used to highlight any part of the body. Cost: $18..? I have both Celestial and Rose Quartz.  I received these highlighters in a Ipsy bag which is a monthly beauty subscription service where you get 5 items from sample to full size for around 30$ Canadian.  ***Cruelty free*** Since I started using these products I did double check Saint Luxe's website and at the time they had their highlighters priced at $18 and just a couple months later it jumped to $26 and at this moment? Down to $25...that is a crazy jump! Especially, since it doesn't state on their website how much product you're getting for the price. I did check the packaging on the highlights and it does say they are 4.3g each. Just wish that was something they would include on their site.  You all know I am a huge lover o...

Veriphy Skincare | 20/20 Eye Cream (Review)

Image
 Product Summary: Powers your skin to naturally produce collagen, elastin and hyaluronic acid. Deeply nourishing and hydrating for a visible lift on the eye area. Ideal to combat the look of wrinkles and fine lines, hyperpigmentation and puffiness around the eyes. Cost: $98 for 15 ml/0.5 Oz.  I first received this product in a Ipsy bag which is a monthly beauty subscription service where you get 5 items from sample to full size for around 30$ Canadian.  ***Cruelty free** I am beyond shocked just how much this eye cream costs. Especially, since it didn't improve my skin all that much. I will say it was extremely hydrating but for the same exact results you can save yourself the money and buy a ton of cheaper alternatives.  The older I am getting the more I make a habit to prioritize skincare, especially, around the eyes. The skin around the eye area overtime tend to thin and of course that is typically where wrinkles start forming. One thing I love about subscription ...

Dracula (Movie Review)

Image
 ***This review will contain spoilers*** Summary: When a 15th-century prince denounces God after the loss of his wife he inherits an eternal curse: he becomes Dracula. Condemned to wander the centuries, he defies fate and death, guided by a single hope - to be reunited with his lost love. When I say that I was on a mission to watch this movie...I'm not kidding! When it first was released in Europe, edits of the movie was all over my social media. I watched countless clips and I had this huge desire to watch it. I have been for the past few months in a season of craving love. I've been reading a ton of love stories and been rewatching quite a few romance movies as well. But this one took the cake! I have no idea why this movie was so hard to track down but the week it was released in Canada I checked my local movie theatre and of course they didn't have it. And the closest movie theatre that did was over 70 km away...I'm not driving that far for a movie. However, I lucki...

Birds Of Prey (Movie Review)

Image
 ***This review will contain spoilers*** Summary: It's open season on Harley Quinn when her explosive breakup with the Joker puts a big fat target on her back. Unprotected and on the run, Quinn faces the wrath of narcissistic crime boss Black Mask, his right hand man, Victor Zsasz, and every other thug in the city. But things soon even out for Harley when she becomes unexpected allies with three deadly women- Huntress, Black Canary and Renee Montoya.  Someone needs to come and slap me across the face for not having seen this movie sooner! This movie exceeded beyond my wildest expectations! I loved Margot Robbie’s portrayal of Harley Quinn and even though the Suicide Squad movie wasn’t all that great, one shining star was her and her totally embodying Harley. Jared Leto as the Joker? Well…not so much. I’ve always been such a huge fan of DC comics growing up and I used to watch the animated Batman series on video cassette…yeah I’m that old! I’m so happy that as an adult I’ve bee...

Fast drying and non sticky, providing powerful long lasting hold to your finished style. Added UV protectors guard against environmental pollutants and discoloration. Cost: between $5-10.  ***Cruelty free*** If it hasn't been obvious, I love to take care of myself including my hair. My mother used to cut my hair short as a child and as soon as I was old enough I made it my mission in life to grow my hair out as much as possible. And I haven't looked back. I might have given myself some bangs over the years and a bunch of different colors but I have never chopped off my hair! With how often I do my hair and style it I need a good hairspray that is both strong and good for my hair. I have really thick hair despite popular belief and I love to curl my hair ...
