Schwarzkopf Repair Rescue Review!
Yet again this was a product that was in my mega voxbox. It says on the front... Schwarzkopf BC Bonacure hair therapy amino cell rebuild repair rescue sealed ends treatment for damaged ends. So basically it helps keep split ends at bay lol. I've used it since I got it (Sept 16th). So far so good! My ends look nice and healthy, no split ends that I can see. This product teamed with my Pantene beautiful lengths shampoo and conditioner is keeping my ends healthy. Depending on which site you go to, the prices for this 2.6 oz tube range from $13-$20. I don't really have $20 to blow on a 2.6 oz tube of hair product lol. I probably won't purchase it just because of the price, but I'm so happy it came in my box for me to try. I really do like it. It's a nice consistency and doesn't smell bad.

CSI Season Premiere Review!
What a great premiere! Luckily they did a "previously on..." because I forgot pretty much everything that had happened all those months ago lol. Of course they make it really intense right from the jump. They started us off at a funeral, then after a few minutes it says "3 days earlier..." so you spend the episode wondering who died! Knowing that Morgan and Ellie were abducted and being held somewhere by the killer who staged his victims to look like pictures from the 9 circles of hell. So right away you're thinking Morgan is probably the one in the casket. She managed to break free from her restraint and do a little harm to the murderer and locked HIM in the restraint. Her and Ellie ran. Then Ellie says "I think there was another girl." Right away I'm thinking... What?! No there isn't... I never heard/saw another girl... Why is Ellie being so weird?! When Morgan runs back in to look for another girl, she see's that the murderer is no longer in the room where she had hurt him and he isn't in the restraint anymore. She runs back out and has a tussle with him. Ellie shoots him. While Morgan is thanking Ellie for coming back to help her, she turns to walk away and Ellie shoots her! So that's where you're really thinkin "Yup, that must be Morgan in the casket." Luckily Ellie wasn't a very good shot. The cops show up and get Morgan to the hospital. Ellie tells them that the murderer attacked Morgan and ended up shooting her, and Ellie had grabbed the gun and shot him while he was fighting with Ellie. Well they found evidence to the contrary while Morgan was in surgery. Sara also found pics of Ellie WITH the murderer in his phone. She was dating the guy... And she was part of all those murders. Who would have guessed! The person in the casket was Ellie's mother. Ellie went home before she was arrested and killed her mom. She was gonna kill her dad, Jim, too, but she didn't have the guts. The cops broke in before she could get enough courage to do it. Crazy start to a wonderful season!

Sleepy Hollow Review!
I've only watched the premiere episode so far. The second episode is in my DVR and ready to be watched, I just haven't gotten around to it just yet lol. After seeing these previews I was really excited! I like those creepy, spooky, weird shows like American Horror Story. This show is unique since Icabod Crane is the main character! I like the girl who plays Abbie Mills too, she's good. So in the first episode we see Icabod coming out of the ground. Then he wanders around, curious why everything looks so different to him. We later find out that Icabod was frozen all those years before. When he cut off the headless horseman's head, their blood blended together and bonded him. So when the headless horseman was summoned and riding again, Icabod also awoke. I liked the way they ended the first episode! It was so creepy and spooky! I loved it! With all of that being said, it is a little confusing and hard to follow. They had a lot going on in the first episode. I'm sticking with it though, I'm sure once we get used to the characters and the story it will be a lot easier to follow.
*You can check it out Monday's on Fox at 9/8c!

Hostages Review!
When I saw the previews for this new series it looked pretty exciting! After watching the first episode, I think we're in for an awesome season. The only problem I have with shows like these is they seem like they would be better off if they were movies. I mean how do you keep the excitement up? How do you keep the show going? Missing was another show that would have been better off a movie. They ended it on a cliff hanger and ABC decided to shut the show down. If it were a movie it would have either ended the same way and they would have done a sequel, or they would have ended it differently and satisfied the viewers. Anyhow, back to Hostages. It's about a woman who is a successful doctor. She was chosen to operate on the President. A former FBI hostage negotiator got a band of people together (4 of them total) to basically watch the doctor and her family's every move. When they felt the time was right, they ambushed them in their home and they're holding them hostage. They want the doctor, who was set to operate on the President the next day, to empty this vile into the President which will shut his organs down and kill him. They haven't established WHY these people want the President dead yet. Hopefully soon they will though, because it's really confusing. I mean these people break into this sweet doctor's home and start threatening to kill her family if she doesn't kill him. It doesn't really make sense yet. The only facts we're given are the FBI hostage negotiator's (I said former earlier since it hasn't been established if he's still working there) wife has cancer and isn't doing very well. I have no idea what that has to do with the President though... Hopefully this will become clearer as the season goes on. Oh and for the record, she gave the President a blood thinner so that she wouldn't be able to operate on him period. It said at the end on the "news" that he would have to try again for the operation the following week. So looks like she's gonna be one of those tough girls =).

Shea Moisture Baby Eczema Bar Soap Review!
Once again, this was one of the items in the mega voxbox I won from Influenster for placing 3rd in the Lifeway Kefir photo contest. I've never heard of Shea Moisture before, but apparently they're an organic line. I really like that! This bar soap has organic raw shea butter, argan oil, and extracts from frankincense and myrrth. It does say it's for babies, but I use it on my own eczema. I use it in the shower. I just rub my hands on it to lather it up and then rub my hands over my eczema. It feels pretty nice. I'm not sure how much it actually helps. The eczema on my shins is the most sensitive area. Probably because I shave. It does feel like it moisturizes my skin. I hope this bar soap lasts a while! I know you can purchase this line at Target, Walmart, Walgreens, and CVS. This particular bar soap is $4.99. I think I would purchase it in the future.

NYC Show Time Sparkle Eyeliner Review!
I actually won TWO of these! The first one I won because I won a Brand Challenge from the Spring Fever voxbox from Influenster. I won the NYC Badge. The prize was this eyeliner. I also got it in the mega voxbox I won for placing 3rd in the Lifeway Kefir photo contest! Yay! Anyhow lol. I like this eyeliner a lot! The sparkle in it is really subtle (both prizes came in Show Time Black). The only problem that I have with it is that it smudges and ends up under my eyebrow lol. I try to do a thinner line when I use this eyeliner so that doesn't happen, but I find it kind of difficult. I would probably purchase this again. I mean it's only $1.99. I normally use NYC eyeliner anyway. I get the pencil that costs $0.99. I do kind of like Avon's eyeliner though. The "self sharpening" kind. I did a review on the Cosmic one I got of those. I REALLY like that a lot! I might stick to that. Not sure...

NYC Sparkle Eye Dust: Amethyst Dazzle Review!
I wanted to do a review separately since I wore this one to work today. Before I had just tried them on briefly and wiped them off. At first I was unsure about the color, however I do really like that you can put some on your lid and then kind of decide how dark or light you want it to be. I went on the lighter side. After having it on for a while I really loved it. I think I just am not used to other colors. I always wear brown & white (brown on lid and crease, white from inside corner of eye to outer eyebrow), have for years. So it was just really different. It's such a gorgeous color though! It looked so good with my face completely done (foundation, blush, eyeliner, mascara). I really love this color! I would get it again! Now I'm contemplating getting the Aquamarine Sparkle. Even though I don't think green would look good on me (I didn't think purple would either).
*You can get these at walgreens.com for $2.99. I saw online Walmart has the Aquamarine Sparkle in stores, I'm not sure why that's the only color listed...
