Easy, Accessible & Nice?! Reviewing Rare Beauty's Find Comfort Hydrating Hand Cream

Image
  Disclaimer: I bought this item with my own money. I am NOT an affiliate with Rare Beauty.  You can purchase this item here:  https://www.rarebeauty.com/products/find-comfort-hydrating-hand-cream  Let me just start by saying this packaging is so cute! I love it fits in the palm of your hand! It's also accessible, meaning that it's easy to use. Although I had a bit of trouble opening it, the texture and scent was amazing. It wasn't sticky, greasy or strong.  This item gave a really sweet comforting smell. Not to mention it also relaxes you too! This makes my hands very soft and smooth. It's a tad bit hard to open and you have to squeeze the product out. However, the tip makes a good massager for your hands.  I give this a 8/10. 

Kikiz Cosmeticz Taylor Swift Swiftie September 2024 Collection Review

Image
  Disclaimer: I bought these items with my own money. I am NOT an affiliate nor am I being sponsored by Kikiz Cosmeticz.  I bought these lip glosses last year and I did a video review on them too! Swatches of Taylor Swift, Speak Now & evermore I only bought 3 out of the 11 (at the time) as I was on a budget, however, I still loved these glosses. Not only were they non sticky, but they were super hydrating and moisturizing! My favourite was Speak Now (of course).  However, I do feel like they're sticky....but hydrating. I do LOVE the colours! (Purple happens to be my favourite colour.) The scents were amazing! (I gave evermore   to my mom because she loves what I call grounding shades.)  All in all I'd rate this collection from last year a 7/10.  These glosses are no longer on Kikiz Cosmeticz website. They were only limited time. 

Profusion x Harry Potter Collab Review-Lip Oils

Image
  Disclaimer: I bought these with my own money. I am in no way an affiliate nor being sponsored by Profusion Cosmetics.  For the first time in years, I get to review a collab here on my website. I originally wanted the advent calender, however, my local Walgreens was sold out; so I opted to get these lip oils. (The Gryffindor was sold out...sorry about that).  First, let's start with Slytherin!!!! I'm not gonna lie, I was a bit disappointed with  the shade. The shimmer li oil was a bit light, but it is real goo for the date nights. As for the nourishing lip oil, it has this perfect hint of light green and very moisturizing.  Onto my previous house, Ravenclaw. This one might be my FAVOURITE one out of all. The shimmer lip oil for this is giving...midnights vibes. The nourishing lip oil was just a plain jane blue, but it was pretty.  Swatches of the Shimmer Lip Oils Finally, Hufflepuff! The shimmer lip oil was giving Fearless (Taylor's Version) vibes. I LOVE ...

With You At Last Book Review

Image
  Disclaimer: I bought this book with my own money. I am NOT an affiliate nor am I being sponsored by this author. OMG, this book!!!!!!! I never thought I liked romances as much as I did, but oooo!!!!!! This book takes the cake! I can honestly relate to both the characters as I feel like this relates to me and my best friend. (Hence why I got this book.)    The fact that this book is about someone coming back into someone's life when they are terminally ill, kind of turns me off....although, I like how Kate responded to Jon. (No one should ever have to suffer from an illness to find love...)  I HIGHLY recommend this book if you love romances. You can get this book here: https://books2read.com/u/m2E0X6 or on K.M's tiktok page!  Overall: 10/10!!!!

My FIRST LGBTQ+ Book!!!!!

Image
  I know, I know "when are you going to publish book one of Beyond The Shadows Abi?" I'm working on that, promise.  A childhood crush recently came back to me and I always wanted to write an LGBTQ+ book. Due to being raised evangentical Christian, I was ever allowed to. I kind of always knew I wasn't "straight"....I knew I was different, just didn't know how different.  When I was in kindergarten, I had this crush on a girl (whom still doesn't really know I exist) and I was apparently bullied by her. (Still don't know why...) This feeling came up recently and it just grew. As someone who's ace/queer/polyromantic & nonbinary, I was debating on writing an LGTQ+ novel. Here it is! My first LGBTQ+ novel; inspired by my childhood girl crush. Not only does this book have tons of queer love, but also has polyamory and trust too. This novel will be available soon!  What are your thoughts about this novel? 

Pre Order My Noevl(la) Now! (Well, Soon)

  I'm super excited to announce that I have FINALLY finished book one of Beyond The Shadows is done! Right now, I'm just searching for  the right indie publisher.  I began writing this book a the beginning of 2024. At the time, my late father was in hospice. As I was caring for him full time, my childhood home began to make her appearance. Upon my late father's passing, I decided to visit my childhood home and it was there where she began to speak to me.  As she spoke, words were written in a blank, lined notebook and a pen. She told me most of what had happened. As I wrote what she spoke, things started to become clear to me...what had happened to me also had happened to her. Here is the synopsis of this book: Most of her life, Abigail was defined by a number: 212, a house. A money making thing. Now after reuniting with her best friend and 10 year medic, she's finally ready to tell all. This is her story. Welcome. Let me take you....beyond the shadows.  Pre ord...
