Getting rid of Dark Circles- H2O Eye Oasis

I have used a bunch of H2O products- face washes, toners, etc. This really worked better than any other, maybe because it actually did what it claimed. So I hardly sleep, 4 or 5 hours every night. I have tried almost everything I could to get rid of them. I have used cucumbers, tea bags, eye rollers and more before finally resorting to this. 

It is unlike other gels that I have used on my face. Gels tend to be sticky and I always want to wash them off right after I put them. But, this absorbs right away. I don't feel irritated by this at all. 




It smells so good. Exactly the same as the face wash I have from the Marine line. After applying it morning and night for a week I saw a difference. So, it doesn't get to work immediately but also doesn't take forever to start. But you really have to be regular with it. 
It is extremely moisturizing for my eyes. That is something I noticed the very first time I used it. 

I paid $25 for 15 ml /.5 oz. I got it off amazon. I have read so many great reviews about this product, that I just had to buy it and write a review of my own. It is a luxury for my skin.  

Kabuki Flex Brush- Sephora (Review)

The first thing that comes to your mind when you hear about this kabuki brush- overrated. Well, not so much. It is one of the most compact brushes out there. It is travel friendly and double tasks. It is so easy to wash. Unlike other brushes, the color doesn't fade and it doesn't get all frizzy after a couple of washes. I actually just have two or three strands out of place on it, and it is so soft on the skin. Also, no shedding. 

Powder and Blush Brush

I can vouch for this as an amazing powder brush, even though I am very picky about my powder brushes. So keep it closed and just use it to buffer in your foundation for a lighter coverage. Because it is angled, it has a larger surface area and is such a time saver. It spreads the foundation easily and picks up the color REALLY well.

You could actually use it as a blush brush if you were to open it, but I hardly use it like that. I generally just use my normal blush brushes for blush but if I am ever travelling, this does come in handy. Usually, I just open it for bronzer. 








In conclusion, it is totally worth the $26. I really can not think of any cons other than it could be easier to open. It is my second favourite brush and it is safe to assume that I don't go anywhere without it.

Star Trek Into Darkness- Review by a girl (SPOILERS)

I have always hated sci-fi. I have never been willing to give it a chance until now. My boyfriend has been bugging me to see this movie but, I always said NO! So, he gave me the movie. I was up at night and bored out of my mind so I started to watch it (mainly because of Chris Pine and Benedict Cumberbatch). I cannot believe that I actually liked it. It was amazing. The story line was so great. Why did I not watch it sooner? It wasn't at all as I expected it to be. It was very emotional at times. Emotional enough to make me cry. I cried when Pike died and when Kirk died. Sci-Fi really isn't all that bad. Spock and Uhura are an amazing couple. I'd rather obsess over them than some Twilight bullshit. I felt so connected to the characters. I was so happy to see Khan helping Kirk and I was hoping he'd be the good guy. But, sadly he wasn't! :( I thought Zachary Quinto's character would annoy me but, I grew to like him as well. He is an excellent actor. I love Spock's character and his catchphrase(even though he didn't say it in this movie). I also found some traces of good humor in it which I wasn't expecting at all. This movie was the complete package. It had action, romance, suspence and best of all, amazing future gadgets that I wish existed.



So here's what I'm gonna do now-
I'm going to download all of the previous Star Trek movies and see them (and probably write a review about them too). But, seriously though, BEST MOVIE I HAVE EVER SEEN!
