Julep Rethink Your Shower Hydrating Body Cleansing Oil

I usually use a  combination of shower gels and bar soaps for showering purposes. I feel like some shower gels are not moisturizing enough and well, some bar soaps are dull. Especially on days where I need to something "extra" to make my mornings more bearable. 

The lightweight body cleansing oil is packed with grape seed oil, coconut oil, kukui nut oil, grapefruit peel oil, and glycerin. It promises to leave skin hydrated and moisturized. The cleansing oil provided a generous lather and did leave my skin feeling soft. However, I still had to follow up with lotion.  It's not a bad shower cleanser but, it's definitely pricer than the brands available at the drugstore.

Colourpop Super Shock Ultra Glitter Eyeshadow - Birthday Wish

The creamy powdery eyeshadow goes on smoothly when applied with my fingers. I found when I used a makeup brush there was a lot of fallout. The champagne color eyeshadow has pink, violet and blue glitter. I love that most of Colourpop's eyeshadows are long-lasting and doesn't crease and fade.  I believe I got this eyeshadow for free as part of their birthday special. Otherwise, while it is a beautiful color, it's not usually my go-to color.

Susanna Fenton is living a lie. She is keeping secrets from her daughter and her friends. Fourteen years ago, she left her husband and her identity behind to keep her daughter safe. She works as a therapist helping people, hoping she put her past behind her.

A young man, Adam Geraghty walks into her office, insisting he needs help from Susanna. Susanna feels that Adam isn't being honest with her and he has a darker motive. She begins to fear that her secret has been discovered. Why is Adam asking Susanna for help? What are his true motives behind his visit?

The novel had a few twists and turns but, I didn't find the novel to be exciting. I didn't find any of the characters relatable and I felt that the novel moved very slowly. Overall, it wasn't a bad read but, it wasn't very psychologically thrilling.

Two years after her husband's death, Stasia Marinakos is trying to learn to enjoy life again. She decides to take an extended vacation for her birthday on a Mediterranean cruise. She crosses path her childhood friend, Roberto Carrass. Stasia is excited for the familiar face until she is mistaken for his fiancée. Roberto and Stasia agree to continue the charade to stop his family matchmaking. However, they both feel their attraction growing but, what will happen to their budding romance when the vacation ends?

The novel was a quick and light-hearted beach read. Personally, while I understand that Roberto and Stasia knew each other, I felt like they fell in love rather quickly. I felt that there was a lot of back and forth between each of the characters because they couldn't be honest about how they felt with each but, wanted honesty in return. Overall, it was an enjoyable book for a quiet afternoon.

Book Review - Tidelands (Fairmile #1) by Philippa Gregory

Photo Credit - Amazon

 In 1648 in England, there is a civil war between the king and his people. The struggle reaches every corner of the kingdom, even the remote tidelands. Alinor is a  poverty-stricken midwife and a healer. However, people around her believe she practices magic. They believe she is friends with faeries. 

On one Midsummer's Eve, Alinor decides to walk among the graveyard under a full moon to look for her abusive husband's ghost. Instead, she crosses path with James, who is on the run and looking for refuge. Alinor decides to help James but, little does she know that she is leading her heart into danger.

To be honest, I wasn't sure what to expect when I first picked up this novel. However, I do know that the novel had an interesting premise but, it was unnecessarily long and boring. I felt like maybe 200 pages of the novel was just fluff. The last few pages are when the story finally progresses but, I felt it was more of a cliffhanger for a second novel. Overall, the novel had a good plot but, it was too much fluff to be enjoyable.
