Reveal by Halle Berry Shower Gel





I got this gift set as a present. I didn’t like the scent of the perfume very much but I am a bit of sucker for shower gels. The shower gel is quite heavy scented and I thought it would dry out my skin. Although the shower was quite strong while I poured some on my loofah but it didn’t leave my skin with a strong scent or dried my skin out. Overall, it was pretty good shower gel for a perfume gift set.

Sorry there are no photos, I thought I  took some but I can't find any on my hard drives or memory card.

Goodies Company Kid’s Box – September 2013 Box 1














Nesquik Strawberry Cookies by Nesquik - These were okay, not my favorite of the two flavors. But if you like strawberry flavored Nesquik, than you would definitely like these. 










Nesquik Chocolate Cookies by Nesquik - These were good, a bit plain as I didn't notice much of the  "chocolatey" flavor just tasted like Nesquik. If you prefer a cookie with a subtle chocolate taste, than this is something you would enjoy. 







Organic Pasta Sauce by Animeals  - Recently, I been making a lot of Italian foods but I think I am going to keep this for a rainy day as I had my fill of pizza, parms, chicken and pasta lately. I do like the concept though, I notice certain pre-made pasta sauce are a bit acidic and sour tasting. I am hoping these would be good :)








Chocolate Chip Cathy by Cow Wow Now -  I thought the premise behind this was very interesting. The product is basically, the sugary milk that is left behind after eating sugary cereal. Why I thought it was a interesting idea, it lacked taste. It was very bland and didn't taste that good. It feels like it was just a glass of milk and someone threw in some cookies and shook it up and then bottle the concoction.  Overall, not a fan. I rather just have a glass of milk with some cookies instead or drink the milk from the cereal.








Cotton Candy by Dorval Trading - Huge disappointment these were! I love these candy straws and cotton candy. You would think adding to great things together would make something delicious, this turns out not to be the case. They were a disgusting tasting and I would rather the blue raspberry or cotton candy instead. 









Kettle Corn by Oogies - I have had better kettle corn but these were tasty. I did like how the bag was filled up all the way to the top. I managed to get 2 servings out of the one bag.

One Love Organics Rose Aromatic Body Serum

The body serum is packed with essential oils like pumpkin seed, rose and sea buckthorn, Zinc and Omega 3, 7 and 6. The serum promises to hydrate, soften, soothe, softly exfoliate and improve skin elasticity.The rose scented body oil goes on smoothly and doesn’t leave my skin feeling greasy or oil. I used it right after showering and my skin felt amazing. The rose scent waft through the air while applying the serum and softly lingered. I felt like just visited the spa while I was massaging the body serum into my skin, although I wish I actually had a massage therapist instead.

Elle Accessories Spring/Summer 2013





Trends this season-
“Fresh Direct -  From cheery mod checks to poppy pastels and sharp stripes, the season’s best bags and shoes send a crisp, uncluttered message.
Block Buster - Wear them with everything: Color blocking takes an understated turn in low key hues of black, white, and tan.
In the Clear - Sometimes transparency is the best policy. Powder-pink shades meet see-through touches for a light as air effect.
Power Point - Save ballet slippers for the studio and make a sharper statement in pointed toes graphic flats.
Mint Condition - How sweet it is! Accessories go soft this spring with sugarcoated hues.
Clean Break - Streamline your look with pristine structured bags and optic-white heels.
Slide Rule - Business in the front, party in the back: The season’s spiked mules offer a cutting edges alternative to the basic stiletto.”

Play Match Maker with these trends-
“a. the day mini + the flat clutch = a slim, brightly colored clutch pops against the season’s pared-down separates.
b. the deep v + the gold collar = sleek, high drama necklines give these clavicle-framing necklaces plenty of room to shine.
c. the summer shift + the hoboy = a textured, oversize holdall add hardworking heft to the relaxed vibe of jeans and easy dresses.
d. the high-slit skirt + the gladiator heel = pair a graphic cutout boot with an eclectic skirt, rather than the obvious sexy dress.
e. the crop top + the oversize hoop = sparkling, swingy earrings will draw all eyes to your face - even when abs are on display
f. the kimono + the mini clutch = an evening bag with an edge makes a cool partner for romantic dresses”
