ELF at Target!!
In hopes of finding a whole section dedicated to ELF, but just like K-Mart, Target only had a end cap solely for ElF. Boo!!
Anyways, I hope this helps you out if you're looking for ELF at your local Target. Don't be like me looking over and over down each aisle. It's outside at the end!! Sorry this video is so short, there wasn't much room to video tape because there was so many people walking behind me looking at me like I'm a weirdo video taping some beauty products. Haha!!
Thanks for watching, voting, and subscribing!!

ELF Studio Powder Brush vs. Face Secrets Powder Buff Brush Review!!
Hope this helps you guys to see the differences in these two brushes. Here's is a video comparison of the ELF Studio Powder Brush vs the Face Secrets Powder Buff Brush from Sallys. The ELF Powder Brush is $3 from their Studio line, however I got it in their 11 Piece Brush Collection. The collection is $30, which is great because if you were to buy the brushes individually it would be $38. This makes each brush in the set come out to about $2.78 cents. Plus it also comes with a carry case!! I cannot say enough great things about this Studio line. Very impressive. The Face Secrets brush is about $7.99. Online the brush handle looks like a light brown color however my handle on my brush is all dark black. And I'm serious when I say the Face Secrets brush literally smells!!
You can watch the great video I spoke about in the video from a great YouTuber named guitarrasara. She does a great video on how she found out the ELF Studio brush was made of wood!! Check her out here!!
Hope you found this helpful!! And please remember these videos are designed to my YouTube channel so any text or movement saying the information is to the right, that is directed to my YouTube viewers. What is to the left for YouTube is here below the video for my blog readers to see!!

Paranormal Activity Review!!
Wow seriously?? Where did this movie go wrong?? First off, it's like the Blare Witch Project. It's made to look homemade to give it a scary "real" feel. This isn't a documentary folks. I hate when movies say it's "based on a true story". It makes it sound real but its not. It may be that there was a couple who thought they lived in a scary house and they lived in San Diego however none of this stuff really happened. Throwing around the words "based on a true story" doesn't mean squat to me. After all, how much of it is real??Second of all, this movie is SO SLOW!! I got warned it was slow in the beginning, but I never thought it would be slow throughout. I thought the end of the movie was the beginning because that's when it started to get a bit of action. In addition this same friend told me the ending scene was "the shit" and well.. They show the ending scene in the trailer so it wasn't really "the shit" once I already saw it. Literally everything in the trailer is the "big parts" in the movie. Just watch the trailer and ta-da!! It's the whole movie!! It was all very predictable. You could ask Rey, many times throughout the movie I whispered over to him what was going to happen next. Haha!!
No need to say I was deeply disappointed in this movie once I heard rave reviews on it. plus the "in demand" for this movie. The producers made it seem to "limited". I wish I would have saved my money. I don't even think this is worth renting nor seeing for free when it hits a TV channel. Ughh, so lame!!
1/5. So wack, however I did laugh a few times because I thought there was some stupid parts and also because the way the audience reacted like little babies over every little thing!!

Law Abiding Citizen Review!!
I often times find movies good, however I rarely find a movie that was worth the $10.25 x 2 for the movie ticket entry, then the $20 on popcorn and drinks, however I will say this this movie was worth it!!Rey invited some of our good friends out and we went to watch this movie. It was sweet because he remembered that when I saw the preview for this movie, I had wanted to watch it!! So off we went to the movies. The movie was so good! It was very suspenseful!! Good action when you least expected it! Never once did I check my watch!! And I even groaned when Rey had to get up to pee because I didn't want him to miss anything!! The movie is so good!! In the beginning it goes straight into the story (and it also made me tear up! So heart wrenching!!), which was good because I hate a movie which lags and takes forever to get on with the story (Not to throw you under the bus Paranormal Activity!!). There were many moments in the movie where I didn't see what was coming which was great. I don't want to give away any spoilers but after the movie when we all walked out of the theater we all said what a great movie it was and how we felt like we got our moneys worth!! Go watch it!!
5/5!! Doesn't get any better than this!! Very suspenseful!!

E.L.F. Review!!
As you all have seen my mini video hall (if not you could watch it here), I was sharing with you guys on some of the goodies I got while at K-Mart. Well, here is a little review blog on the items I have tried. I haven't tried em all, but this is what I've tried so far. And just as an update, I already placed my other order for the brushes and I've been waiting for 4 days. It still hasn't been shipped out. They take forever with their processing, it's quite annoying. Anyways onward with the reviews, in order here is what we'll review today:Their eyeshadow is a bit powdery and loose. However this quad is very dense. Not only is their black very dark, but their white is very very white!! This product is pretty true to color. However I lightly put this over my Too Faced Shadow Insurance and it still didn't stay on that well. I'd give this a 3/5.
Very similar to the Drama quad with consistency. However this isn't as dense. I'd give this a 3/5 as well.
$1 E.L.F. Liquid Eyeshadow in Green Machine 7405
$1 E.L.F. Liquid Eyeshadow in Sultry Satin 7401
$1 E.L.F. Liquid Eyeshadow in Misty Mauve 7406
Again, these swatches are in order from the photo and list above!!I love love love this!! It's amazing!! I haven't put it on my eyes yet so I can't tell you about the creasing or smudging, however when I tried to wash this off with soap, I had to scrub pretty hard!! And wash it two times over!! The colors are so dense!! And it's very creamy!! I love this!! 5/5 so far!!
This is a fantastic eyeliner!! It's very dense, dark true black. And it does not smudge at all!! It stays on so well!! The best liquid eyeliner I've ever tried!! The only down side is the tip is crazy hard and when I accidentally poked myself in my eye it hurt, however the good thing is that when the product went into my eye, it didn't sting!! Yippee!! I give it a 5/5!!
$1 Gentle Lip Scrub
Eh, it's nothing fabulous. One light coat feels good, melts pretty well on your lips. but if you put more than one then your lips will feel so waxy you could scrape the wax off your lips. Plus even when it's stored properly it still dries out and makes it hard to melt on your lips. The scent isn't very pleasant either, smells very waxy. I'd like to see them make this product a bit more moist and also maybe cherry scented!! I give it a 2/5.

That's about it for now, I'll keep you all updated when the next package comes in!!

L.A. Colors Shimmer Loose Eyeshadow Review!!
-Sunshine BES402
-Honey Suckle BES401
-Snow White BES400
-Radiant BES404
-Lollipop BES403
And here above are the swatches of the colors in the same order shown in the first picture and also listed!! All I used was my Two Faced Shadow Insurance. My favorite color out of all of them was Sunshine and also Radiant. Would I buy this again?? Maybe the Sunshine and Radiant, and maybe even the Lollipop, but not the others. I'm planning on doing a video blog review for this, so keep an eye out everyone!!
My vote is a 2.5/5 for the Sunshine and Radiant, and about a 2 for everything else.

Pandorum Movie Review!!
This was right up Rey's alley!! He loves futuristic type of movies. Eh, not so my style however I will say that this was a pretty good movie, especially for it being something not of my genre type. I was scared at least 2 times, hiding behind my hands, ha!! I don't want to spoil anything for anyone who hasn't seen it yet, but I will say... Why is it that the Asian character can never make it!? Gosh, come on now people!! Let an Asian character live!! Haha!!The movie is a good length, not too long, not too short. It's got alright graphics. And it does make you think a bit, with a twist at the end. Over all a pretty good movie. Rey like this better than Surrogates, but I like Surrogates better than this movie. I guess it's because this type of movie his his genre and Surrogates is a bit more my style. This is def. a good rental!!
3/5 for me!! Pretty good for being a genre outta my box!!

Surrogates Movie Review!!
Good movie!! Bruce Willis is such a great actor!! This is a great movie with action and another reason why I liked it was because it had a good moral at the end of the story which is, humans are lazy!! Haha!! This movie is suspenseful, and makes you think throughout the movie (but not too much!!). I was tripping off the machines faces, the make up they did on the actors to make them look robotic was so neat!! But it's kinda funky how Bruce Willis' mouth barely moved in robot form. Haha!! You have to see the movie to understand what I'm talking about. Throughout the whole movie, I was laughing on how perfect the robots were!! The make up work was amazing!!4/5 stars!! A very good rental!! Wouldn't be disappointed paying for a matinee!!

The Informant Movie Review!!
Not really knowing what the Informant was going to be about, I went in with an open mind, after all it was Matt Damon and he usually makes great movies!! Thinking it may however be action, I was deeply disappointed. This movie takes forever to get the basic idea what the movie is about. I'm assuming there were suppose to be funny moments, however I didn't laugh. If I look at my phone for the time during a movie, that means the movie isn't good. I looked at my phone several times to check for the time!! I wanted the movie to be over with. I even went into a light sleep, it was so boring!! Have you ever seen the movie Bug?? If so, then you know that Bug was the worst movie I've ever seen in my life. Well.. This movie is creeping up there next to Bug. This is the second worst movie I've ever seen in my entire life. I don't even recommend renting it for $1 at RedBox. Hell I wouldn't even watch it on TV for free!!0/5 stars. This movie is horrible!!

Zombieland Movie Review!!
Alrighty folks, so for those of you know know me and my Fiancee Rey really well then you guys all know that we are movie junkies!! My soon to be Father in Law loves going to the movies so we go to the movies just about once a week, watching two movies at a time. Plus I watch movies at home all the time thanks to NetFlix and also my local RedBox!!Rey and his sister Gen are zombie freaks and they've been waiting to see Zombieland for MONTHS!! So you bet opening day we went to go watch it!! (Sadly Gen couldn't make it, she was busy working.) All I have to say is Zombieland was way better than what I expected!! Zombieland > Shaun of the Dead It's hilarious!! I don't want to spoil it for anyone who hasn't seen it yet, but seriously I suggest seeing it ASAP!! You'll get a great laugh!! The type of comedy really reminds me of that new type of comedy, not the old school stuff like Shaun of the Dead. It's hard to explain, you'll just have to see!! Reminds me of Pineapple Express, the Hangover, type of comedy!! Good times!!
I give it 5/5 stars for a light hearted funny movie!!

While Trying to be Productive..
Here I am, on a Sunday night, trying to be productive by making a video to poll readers on a school project. I'm trying to see which balloon animal the general public finds fun, easy to learn (but not too easy) and entertaining. As I'm almost done with the video I realize.. MY CAMERA DIED!! Ughh!! So I then jumped into the shower as my camera was charging. And when I came out I tried to tape again, and BAM it died AGAIN when I'm almost done. Haha. I really give up. I think I'll end up doing the dog because it's easy (but not as easy as the mouse) and it's also great for both boys and girls!! I'll let you guys know how it goes tomorrow in class!!
