Sinful Colors Review!

I won the Palmolive brand challenge a while back and one of the prizes in my prize pack was a Sinful Colors nail polish! It's called Innocent, which is kind of a light, neon green. I don't like the color that much, but that's okay. The consistency is thinner than what I'm used to dealing with. It still comes out pretty and shiny though. I believe you can find these at Walgreen's for less than $3. They have 32 shades all together, so lots to choose from!

Surviving Evil Review!

This show is really good. I just watched the premiere episode last night. Carisma Carpenter told her story about how her and two friends were attacked by a serial rapist on the beach. I love these kinds of shows. The survivors are gonna tell their horrible stories, but they lived through it and are stronger. If you like these kinds of shows I recommend checking this one out!



You can catch this show on ID at 10/9c

Teen Mom 3 Review!

I have to admit, these shows are a guilty pleasure for me! I've watched 16 & Pregnant since the very first episode. I've also watched all the Teen Mom installments. I really liked the premiere of Teen Mom 3. It was really good. I think Mac is my favorite! I like her personality. She looks like a barbie lol, she's still a sweet little girl though. I like Brianna a lot too. A lot of people think that these girls glorify teenage pregnancy. I would have to politely disagree. They capture all of the heartaches and difficulty these girls have being moms at such a young age. I'm in my mid-twenties and it definitely makes me happy that didn't happen to me! My life would be so different.

If you're interested in checking it out, tune into MTV Monday's at 10/9c!

Mossimo V-Neck T-Shirts Review!

Target carries these tops. They're really cute, comfortable, and have a cool texture. I call them "date tops" because they're perfect for dates! I have two of them. I have pink and this neon green color. Sounds ugly, but it's actually really cute. It was the only one of the colors that was on sale. They're $10 full priced, and the neon green was on sale for $5. They probably don't sell many in that color. I was unsure when I was first looking at it, but decided to try it out. Since I got the pink one in medium (which usually fits me well), but it fits so loosely. So I got the neon green in small and it fits much better. I'm thinking these tops run a little big, so I would go a little smaller than you normally do if you want them to fit to your body better. If you like tops that fit loosely, go with your usual size.

Bath & Body Works: Blueberry Pumpkin Patch Review!

I LOVE this scent! This may be my new fall favorite. It smells like a blueberry muffin. I really like it. The blueberry is dominate, but you can smell the pumpkin also, it gives it a little spicy kick. I have this in the candle and I love it! It also comes in the wallflower refills, so I might have to get those too! So yummy!

Bridezilla's Review!

This is the 10th and final season! I've always liked this show, for some crazy reason! I guess it's just super entertaining to witness people go insane. You know that this must be these women's personalities though. I'm not sure if I really believe just the stress of the wedding is making them lose it a little. Their personalities have to be like that, at least a little, in the first place. I'm always surprised to see these mean women who find men who are willing to put up with them. And be their "whipping boy". If you would like to see these CRAZY people, tune into WE on Friday's at 9/8c for new episodes (they play older episodes regularly).

Devious Maids Review!

I didn't watch this show when it first came out. I thought the previews and plot sounded so silly. They had a marathon a couple weeks ago, starting at one and ending at the newest episode. I decided to just try it out, ya never know! I'm so glad I did! This show is amazing! The maids are so funny! And devious ;). My favorite maid is Rosie, how about you guys? My mom's favorite is Carmen. If you haven't checked out this show, you're missing out! AND Lifetime renewed it for a second season! YAY!

Avon Glimmersticks: Cosmic Review!

These eyeliners are so cool! I normally just use NYC's pencil eyeliners since they're super cheap and I like the way they wear. The glimmersticks were on sale. I got mine in Blackened Night. It's so pretty! It has subtle glitter in it. It has pinks, silvers, I think a little gold too. It doesn't look cheap or like you're dressing up as a character or something lol. Again, the glitter is very subtle. I also like that it isn't a pencil. It's nice not to have to sharpen! I still like my NYC pencil's, but I might have to get Avon's eyeliners more often!

*On sale for $2.99 each!

Yes To Cucumbers Soothing Body Butter Review!

I really like this butter! It smells really nice and refreshing. It melts into your skin really easily and makes you feel moisturized and hydrated. A little bit goes a long way since it's a thicker consistency. Unfortunately this is product Yes To is doing away with. I'm not sure why exactly they're discontinuing it. You can find these at Walgreens, however, CHECK THE EXPIRATION DATE! Every single butter I saw at my local Walgreens was two and a half years passed its expiration date (same for the Yes To Carrots body butter). I ordered this one online because I wanted to try it before it's gone forever!

$12.99 for an 8.45 oz jar.

Kiss Nails Gradation Kit: Film Noir Review!

This one isn't too bad. I think it'd be a good one for Halloween. This kit is the black one. I only really liked the gold one as far as the fade effect went. It actually looked like a fade! I really liked it and got compliment's on it. I'm glad I tried the other ones though so I could see if I liked them or not.

Kiss Nails Gradation Kit: Freeze Frame Review!

Freeze Frame is the pink one. I thought I would love this one and it would be my favorite. I actually hate it = (. Since my nail beds are pink, the fade effect does not happen. It just looked like I had hot pink tips. Very disappointed = (.

Bath & Body Works Wallflowers: Pumpkin Cupcake Review!

I love this refill! It smells delicious! It really does smell like a pumpkin cupcake. You can clearly smell the pumpkin and then they added a nice sweetness to it to make it smell like a cupcake. It's a strong scent, but not overpowering. I'm sure after a couple days though I'll get used to it and not be able to smell it anymore. That's the only downside to plug in's.

Soft Soap Rich Shea Butter Hand Soap Review!

In the middle of May I was fortunate enough to get the Palmolive voxbox from Influenster (complimentary for testing purposes). I completed the brand challenge for that one and I won! My prize pack was: Soft Soap Rich Shea Butter hand soap, Sinful Colors nail polish, and IMpress press on manicure. I love this soap! A little bit goes a long way. I barely push the pump down and the little bit of soap I have on my hands lathers up as if I pushed the pump all the way down! It also smells amazing and feels really awesome too! There are moisture beads in it, which I find really cool. I'm sure you can find it at Target and Walmart. I will be buying more in the future! Love it!

Yes To Carrots Super Rich Body Butter Review!

Amazing! Is all I really have to say, lol jk. It is amazing though! It's a nice thick consistency, but it's really soft. A little goes a long way. It melts right into your skin and feels amazing! Leaves skin really soft and moisturized. Felt pretty good on my eczema too! I got mine at Target (of course lol) for $12.99! Make sure to check the expiration date! Although Target seems very good at keeping expired products off their shelves. At Walgreens every single body butter was expired! Boo!

Kiss Nails Gradation Kit Review!

A while back I got the Spring Fever voxbox complimentary from Influenster. They always do brand challenges for the different brands that are in the box. I won the IMpress Nails brand challenge! (& 2 others!). The prize pack for the IMpress Nails brand challenge was a gradation kit, lashes, and lash adhesive. I got the Exposure gradation kit, which is the gold one. I wasn't sure I would like it, but it's beautiful! The gold is really light and classy looking. I am the worst in the entire universe at painting my fingernails! I did my nails myself with the kit in 20 minutes and they look professionally done! There were 3 fingers I had to redo, but 3/10 isn't bad! lol. There are 3 steps and 3 different polishes. You do step 1 first, 2 coats of it that cover your entire nail. Next is step 2 which is a darker gold than step 1, you put that on 1/3 of your nail. Then you finish off with step 3 which is a glittery gold, that you put on half of your nail before step 2 dries, blending the other 2 colors together. They're $7 at Target and Walmart!

My mom liked my nails so much she went out and got 2 Film Noir kit's! (1 for her and she grabbed 1 for me since I was sleeping when she went lol). Next I want Freeze Frame!

Haagen Dazs Raspberry Sorbet Review!

This sorbet is all natural and all yummy! I had it shoved way back in the freezer (for hiding purposes) and when I pulled it out hours later I was expecting it to be really hard. It wasn't at all! I glided the spoon on the top of it and it shaved right off onto the spoon! It was also delicious! It was sweet and tangy. I would definitely get this sorbet again! $3.49 for a pint at Target. It's worth it though. I think that was the best sorbet I've ever had!

Ben & Jerry's Berry Voluntary Ice Cream Review!

This caught my eye today at Target cause it was on sale. Normally $3.49 for $1.74. I ate it when I got it home. Oh. My. God! lol. It's FANTASTIC! Raspberry cheesecake ice cream with white chocolate chunks and raspberry swirls. I was in heaven! It was so delicious! It says on the lid that it's a limited edition flavor. So snag them while you can!

Target Mossimo Tank Tops Review!

I LOVE these tank tops! They have to be my favorite ones ever! I used to have and wear them all the time a few years ago. I stumbled upon them again a couple weeks ago. They're 95% cotton and 5% spandex, so they're really comfortable! I got heather grey, sky blue, dark purple, hot pink, and blue with a white design on it. The sky blue and blue with white were both on sale for $5.50, the others were full price at $9. Even full price I think these are an awesome deal, they're really cute, good quality, comfortable, for sure worth $9! If you haven't tried them out, you should!

Haagen Dazs Ice Cream Review!

I bought strawberry last night! I ate it as soon as I got it home ;). So yummy! It had real strawberries in it and was so creamy and soft. It was SO good! I paid $3.49 for a pint. Not too bad, not too great lol. Since it's Haagen Dazs, I don't think the price was too bad. They had some other flavors that looked really good at Target. I might have to try some of the others. I've always loved strawberry ice cream, so I knew I couldn't go wrong with that choice! If you guys haven't tried Haagen Dazs yet, you should give them a try!

Great Value Peppermint Starlight Mints Review!

I LOVE peppermints. They taste good, freshen your breath, and make your tummy feel better if it's upset. I always have some. I get these at Walmart. $1 for a 10 oz bag. Awesome deal! One bag lasts forever!

Bath & Body Works: Spiced Cider Candle Review!

I burned this little beauty last night. It smells really good! I think I burned it for too long though and the spice started to irritate my nose. I have it in a mini candle. I don't think I would buy it in the bigger size since I can't burn it for a long period. If spice doesn't bother your nose, then this is a good fall candle to have.

Sally Hansen Insta-Dri: Brisk Blue Review!

I love me some blue nail polish! This particular blue is beautiful! It's a medium blue. I absolutely love it! This one is also part of her permanent collection (as far as I know lol). I always see it anyway! Hopefully she doesn't discontinue this one. If you like blue or are feeling a little adventurous, you should check this one out!

Pibb Xtra Review!

I love this pop so much! It tastes so yummy. What's interesting is I hate cherry and spice is okay, yet it says on the can it's "spicy cherry soda" lol. Glad I never read that part before drinking it, I probably wouldn't have wanted to try it. I don't ever taste the cherry in it. It just tastes like Pibb to me. I do prefer Dr. Pepper, but I like Pibb a lot too. It's been on sale at Target the last couple times I went for $4.

Yestocarrots.com Review!

I love this website! I made my first order with them yesterday! It's a really easy site to navigate and easy to find exactly what you're looking for. I ordered some things you can't typically find in stores. I ordered the Yes To Cucumbers body butter (I've found these at Walgreens, but all have been two and a half years past their expiration date), 2 Yes To Carrots Anti Frizz Serums (I found them at Target ONCE and have never seen them again!), Yes To Cucumbers gentle milk cleanser, and the Yes To Baby Carrots towelettes (I don't have kids, but I've heard these towelettes are good for adults too lol). I can't wait till it all comes in and I can give them a try! Their website also offers a flat rate shipping of $5, and I wasn't charged tax.

Yes To Tomatoes Roller Ball Spot Stick Review!

I got the kit the other day. I tried the spot stick right after buying it lol. I really don't like the smell very much at all, but it did almost make my pimple disappear right away. I only used it once and it's almost completely gone already. The spot stick costs $9.99, but the 3 piece kit costs $19.99. The spot stick has salicylic acid and tea tree. It also has ginger root and bisabolol. 97% natural!

Yes To Tomatoes Clearing Facial Mask Review!

I really like this mask a lot! I tried it last night after I bought it. You get a 1.7 oz jar for $14.99. Sounds a little high, but the mask is really thick, so you only need just a little bit to cover your entire face. We'll see how long this lasts me! It's a deep pore treatment that refines, purifies, and moisturizes your skin, while keeping your complexion clean, clear, and balanced. It's filled with potent anti-oxidants that fight free radicals, and bursting with powerful sebum (acne-causing oil) absorbers. The smell is light and doesn't really bother me. You only need it on for 5 mins before you wash it off. It went on nicely and washed off with a wet wash cloth nicely. I was very impressed!

Up & Up Sandwich Crackers Review!

I love these things! I used to get them as a kid. Target has their own store brand version, so it costs less. I like bringing them to work with me, they're a good boost. I always get the cheese and peanut butter and the cheddar cheese ones. They're so yummy! You can get a box of 8 (there are 6 crackers in each pack) for less than $2. Super good deal!

Perception Review!

According to ratings this show isn't doing so well. They started their second season not that long ago. I, personally, love this show! I started watching it because I ADORE Eric McCormick. I think the acting is really well in this show and it always keeps me guessing. I can't guess the murderer right away (usually lol) like I can in other shows. It takes a different route, I can appreciate that. I mean most people solving murder cases aren't schizophrenic like Danial Pierce. It's looking bad for a third season, but maybe they can pull it off. If not, I enjoyed it while it lasted!

Yes To Review!

This review is gonna be on the company as a whole. As you can see from my posts, many of them are for Yes To products, and all of those reviews, are good reviews. I've tried many things from this company and I have loved every single one of them! All of their products are amazing and organic. They are cruelty free and don't test on animals. They're still a somewhat small company, but they sure are mighty. You can find them in many stores! In the organic aisle, next to Burt's Bee's (usually). This is by far my new favorite company. If you guys haven't checked them out, you most certainly should! Especially if you're into organic products. These are worth your time =)

Learn more about them here!

Sally Hansen Insta-Dri: Orchid Express Review!

This is another color from the limited edition 2012 summer collection. I love this one! It's such a pretty deep purple. This is the polish I had on my toes before my current color. It's a really beautiful color. I think you can still find these on Amazon.com. If you like dark colors, or just into purple, you should look online and see if this color is one you'd really like in your collection!

Big Brother Review!

I take back everything I said in my other review for this piece of garbage show. CBS should be ashamed of themselves! Supporting people who are so racist, so vile, so mean. Remember in an earlier season when that girl no one liked got kicked off for throwing her mic? That was unacceptable, but being racist and bullying people IS acceptable? CBS doesn't deserve a network. If this is the future of the show, there should be no future. Them putting that disclaimer before the show now is a joke! It's basically them saying they won't take responsibility for anything the house guests say or do, and that they don't support it. How are they NOT supporting it? They aren't doing anything to put a stop to it. Also, did you guys know since Amanda is friends with the producer, she is the predetermined winner of BB? So why are we watching? Why are we voting? It's all for nothing. I really do hope Amanda walks out the door tonight, but it would take a miracle. You would think CBS would stop protecting her. When America voted Amanda as the 3rd nominee, that should have been their wake up call that Amanda needs to go. The only reason this show is on the air is because of us giving them our ratings. Well they don't deserve them! They're going to REWARD someone for their OUTRAGEOUS, DISGUSTING behavior. This network needs to go down in flames. They are garbage. Why was Amanda even allowed to be on the show when she not only knows the producer, but is good friends with her? This is ridiculous. I have already written CBS directly. Ratings need to plummet and we need to get this show off the air. 15 seasons is enough now. Like I said before, if this is the future of the show, why does it need to continue? Let's put this show to bed, for good!

Sally Hansen Insta-Dri: Fast Fuschia Review!

This one is one of my favorite pinks ever! It's so pretty! It's a hot pink color. I think it's good for year round, but it's definitely a terrific summer color! I got this one last year. It was part of her limited edition summer 2012 colors. I got all 8! After getting them all, I've never seen them again. So they really were limited edition lol. I've seen colors pretty similar, but I'm super glad I got this collection before they were all gone!
