Catrice -ICONails - 20 Back To The Routes - Gel Lacquer



It says 'gel lacquer' but it is just an ordinary polish.

This is a ONE COAT black!


Maybe I should send some to Cristine?

It is shiny, long lasting, and I love it!

And a good excuse to show you my sweet pinkie nail.


Price: 4/5 ($4.51 for 10.5mL)
Alternate shade name: Gothik
Effectiveness: 5/5

O'Clair Health - Hanfpulver Kapseln - Hemp Powder Capsules



These are capsules with two natural phytocannabinoids, which are supposedly good for their cell protective and anti-inflammatory properties.

These have no THC, so they won't get you high.
It's silly that you can't get this in Australia, it cannot be enjoyed recreationally.

I take them at night right before I go to bed because they can make me feel a little nauseous.


Price: 2/5 ($61.46 for 90 capsules)
Scent: 2.5/5 (no scent or taste)
Effectiveness: 4/5

Cien - Tag für Tag Shampoo - Frucht & Vitamin



This is a daily shampoo that I purchased from Lidl.

It is a nice peach scent and I really wanted it to work.

But it gave me the worst dandruff! I was getting skin everywhere and it seemed like it was endless. Even the tops of my ears started peeling! 



I can't use this anymore, which sucks greatly (because I have a lot left).

Price: 5/5 ($4.52 for 500mL)
Scent: 5/5
Effectiveness: 0/5

Isana - 200 Wattestäbchen (200 Cotton Swabs)


I got these to clean up parts of nail polish and apply masks as spot treatments.

They are sturdy, don't fall apart, and I like the plastic box they come in (the lid fits on nicely for storage).

Price: 5/5 ($0.45 for 200)
Scent: 2.5/5 (no scent)
Effectiveness: 5/5

Masquerade! - Face Apeel - Suction Black Mask



Black peel off face masks are very popular right now.
It didn't pull too much out of my skin, but it did get some gunk and many baby hairs.
The trick it to apply a thick enough coat.
I only did a thin coat the first time and nothing happened.
It does smells very nice, perfumed.

Effectiveness: 4/5

RdeL Young - French Manicure Schablonen (Template)

These are guides for doing french tips, but I just used them for a border on my glitter.

Check out my accent nail!

They did pull up the nail polish underneath a little bit, but they were cheap and it didn't really matter with the clear nail polish I used.
Also, I was probably too impatient in letting the base coat dry.

Price: 5/5 ($1.37 for 40 stickers)
Effectiveness: 4/5

Podcast Review - Alice Isn't Dead



This follows the story of a truck driver (who goes by many names) as she searches for her missing wife.

I did like how despite the story involving a lesbian relationship, they feel no need to explicitly stating it. I like that a lot.

We start learning about the 'Thistle man' and begin to peel back the layers of something bigger.

I won't go too much into the story, I don't want to spoil it.

The only thing I don't like is the guy who introduces the story each time, he talks for far too long.
  And here's a question for you: Why did the chicken cross the road?

Because he wanted to be involved. Because he liked the story. Because he couldn't bear letting the story shine. Because he should be the story. Because he needs the attention. Because he needs to be the centre of attention.
Because he wants part of the fame and glory. Because he can't present a good story.
Because atmosphere be damned.
Because he can't be quiet.
Because your enjoyment be damned.
Because he must be the star.
He must be.
He must.

Catagory: Horror
Rating: 2.5/5 (It would be 4.5/5 if the stupid intro and end was cut off the episodes, but I have to rate it as presented).
