A New LGBTQ+ Dating App? Reviewing Taimi

Image
  Disclaimer: This is 100%  my own opinion. I am not an affiliate with Taimi.  So, I started using this app last year when I was looking for a 3rd ( if you poly, you should know what I mean). I've been on this app 3 times (once for my drag king). I can honestly say...while this app does have some perks....it's not really for me.  I started to notice that a lot of people were not very interested in me...there were times where I thought I'd found a 3rd ( if you're poly, you know), but it didn't work out. I recently went back to Taimi to find some "friends", but again...that didn't work out..... So, I decided to get off the app all together. Honestly, some find love through a dating app and some don't and that's okay.  If you found love through an app, what was your experience?   

Cute & Dreamy?!- Reviewing CoraCreaCrafts Dreamscape Box

  Disclaimer: I bought this item with my own money. I am in no way an affiliate with CoraCreaCrafts.  You can purchase this box here:  https://coracreacrafts.com/products/curiosities-box-subscription?_pos=1&_psq=Curi&_ss=e&_v=1.0 This box is the bimonthly Curiosities box from CoraCreaCrafts. For this theme, it's called Dreamscape .  This box came with all that you see in the photo. For an example spread, here's what I made:  I did this to honour my childhood home. I thought this was the perfect use for this box. While I had a lot of pros for this box, there are some cons.  I had a hard time with the clouds tape, just as I did with the Celtic Knots washi tape...it kept tearing when I didn't want it to and it was hard to get it back into its shape. Back to the pros of this box, I LOVE how some of it came with beachy items. (Such as the seashell stickers).  My favourite item in this box has to be the collage sticker pack! I love the packaging ...

A Blast From The Past!- Reviewing CoraCreaCrafts The New Look Vintage Box

  Disclaimer; I bought this box with my own money. I am in no way an affiliate with CoraCreaCrafts. If you did not see my review of the Celtic Box, Please click here:  https://abigailelizabethauthor.blogspot.com/2026/01/a-cute-junk-journal-supply-company.html This box was a little different, but was in my budget. This box is inspired by fashion from the 1950s & 1960s! This came with some cute washi tape, paper and more! Let's just say....I've already started creating with this box.  I..uhh....went a little overboard with this spread, but that's the thing with junk journal...you're allowed to go crazy! Anyway, I LOVE this theme! Although it's the 50's and 60's, it's still amazing. I love the colours and aesthetic.  I like to give this box a7/10; although this does have some good high quality items. It's just not the aesthetic I'd get again.  If you received this box, what was your favourite item? What kind of things did you create? *this box i...

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 ...
