The Creme Shop | Holiday Sheet Mask Duo -A Snowman's Dream + Deer Diary (Review)

Image
 Product Summary: This holiday inspired duo contains two sheet masks to satisfy everything your skin craves, use Deer Diary to plump and hydrate skin for an ultra-dewy glow. Pop on A Snowman's Story to help combat dryness and that tight feeling that skin can get when temps drop. Cost: $3 per mask.  I ended up receiving these face masks in a Ipsy glam bag which is a monthly beauty subscription service where you get 5 items from sample to full size for around 20$ Canadian. Click  here to check them out.   ***Cruelty free*** From the packaging alone, you would assume the sheet masks would be styled after a deer and snowman but alas it was just plain white face masks. Other than that, I had no issues with the masks. Winter time tend to dry my skin out quite a bit so sheet masks that are meant to hydrate the skin is exactly what I need.  For face masks that are geared towards being moisturizing I leave it on for as long as possible or I'll sometimes fall asleep with ...

Kiss The Dead (Anita Blake, Vampire Hunter #21) By: Laurell K. Hamilton (Book Review)

Image
 ***This review will contain spoilers*** Summary: When a fifteen-year-old girl is abducted by vampires, it's up to U.S. Marshal Anita Blake to find her. And when she does, she's faced with something she's never seen before: a terrifyingly ordinary group of people - kids, grandparents, soccer moms - all recently turned and willing to die to avoid serving a master. And where there's one martyr, there will be more...But even vampires have monsters that they're afraid of. And Anita is one of them... One of the saddest things that could happen is the summary being better than the book. This summary has more plot than the book itself. At this point, I have no one else to blame but myself. This series has gone downhill quicker than the stock market crash. I don't understand how a series can start off so damn amazing to now each book barely having any plot. Lately, the way the books have been turning out is that we have some type of plot at the beginning to kinda get th...

Ironman (Movie Review)

Image
 ***This review will contain spoilers*** Summary: A billionaire industrialist and genius inventor, Tony Stark is conducting weapons tests overseas, but terrorists kidnap him to force him to build a devastating weapon. Instead, he builds an armored suit and upends his captors. Returning to America, Stark refines the suit and uses it to combat crime and terrorism.  Opening Scene: Tony Stark and his military entourage get ambushed by a terrorist group using weapons from Stark industries. Tony is the only one left from his group and the terrorists have taken him and don't plan on letting him go.  Ironman is known as the movie that helped set up the Marvel Cinematic Universe and I 100% agree. From start to finish it was a great action packed movie that follows a man on his journey to becoming a hero. For a lot of movies that I've seen and reviewed on my blog there are things that I point out that I feel need to be changed or done completely different and I have nothing for thi...

True Blood |Season 3 Episode 1: Bad Blood (Review)

Image
 ***This review will contain spoilers*** This episode is beyond chaotic, Bill's been kidnapped, Jessica killed a trucker, Jason is going off the deep end from killing Eggs and Tara is about to snap.  This episode confirmed that werewolves exist in this universe! I'm happy that this world is expanding slowly but surely. I like when there's a natural progression of a world expanding and not when everything is out in the open right away, it becomes overwhelming as a viewer and with this show it's not too much so soon. Bill gets kidnapped by drug addict werewolves hooked on V gets away from them and the episode ends with the gang in wolf form. I'm over Bill as a character so if they kill him then awesome.  One thing that I noticed that I found so shitty is that Sookie instead of making sure Jessica is ok only goes to see her to see if Bill reached out to her. Sookie acts like Jessica is not even a person but an accessory to use at her convenience. Here is Jessica a newb...

Bellápierre | Mineral And Matte Lipsticks (Review)

Image
 Product Summary: Bellápierre's lipsticks are formulated with natural waxes, mineral pigments, iron oxides and nourishing antioxidants, such as vitamin C and vitamin E for luscious, flawless lips. The lipsticks are 100% natural and provide long lasting color. The mineral pigments provide natural protection from the sun. Shades in matte: Incognito. Mineral lipsticks: P.I.N.K and Ruby.  Cost: $15 each.  I ended up receiving these lipsticks in a Ipsy glam bag which is a monthly beauty subscription service where you get 5 items from sample to full size for around 20$ Canadian. Click  here to check them out.     ***Cruelty free*** These lipsticks are extremely easy to use and are very pigmented. They apply easily, are extremely moisturizing to the lips and it sits comfortably on the lips as well. The only downside to them is they aren't long lasting. The lipstick breaks down very quickly whether I'm eating or drinking it doesn't last.  One great thing about...

Huda Beauty | The New Nude Eyeshadow Palette (Review)

Image
Product Summary: 18 gorgeous shades ranging from cool to warm tones, including 10 buttery mattes that blend seamlessly with your skin, 4 multi-reflective shadows with a versatile pearly to iridescent finish, 2 pressed glitters for an opulent touch, 1 pressed pearl for a velvety shine, 1 concealer base to make your shadows pop. From a minimalist, I-woke-up-like-this look to a show stopping iridescent lid, this eyeshadow palette is your new must have to enhance your beauty on any occasion.  Cost: Full price $86 but I bought it on sale at sephora for $43.  ***Cruelty free*** This is my first Huda Beauty product and I'm disappointed. I expected better, especially, when their palettes almost cost $90. One of my biggest issues is the fallout. Whether I'm picking up product with my brush or the wear throughout the day it gets everywhere! The glitter and shimmer shades are the worst to deal with. The glitter and shimmer shades end up all around my eyes and don't stay put. And if I ...
