Bath & Body; Cosmic Cleanse; March Pre-Ord

Vendor; Cosmic Cleanse Unicorns
Order; March Order

Owner; Heidi Fitzsimmons

YouTube Reveal;


What I ordered;

2 full size body budders in; snowcone for a unicorn and kirin

small unscented body budder

2 small Whipped Soap Scrubs in Suicide Squad Goals

 Thoughts;
It took some time to receive my order from the order date, however she did a wonderful job at keeping everyone updated from how many orders she received to when supplies were expected all the way down to shipping. Personally I think that her TAT was pretty good. She is also in school and obviously works very hard at this. People were showing pictures of their orders in her facebook group and when you see some of the hauls you can imagine why the TAT was so long.

I suffer from chronic pain and fibromyalgia and using this lotion is amazing for me. I also have arthritis in my spine and it helps so much with the pain.

I normally don’t “drink the coolaid” and go for the holistic approach, however after receiving some of this in a mystery box and using it, without knowing if it was infused with CBD Oil I felt much better. This is something that I would highly encourage people to check out.

Scent Descriptions;
Snowcone for a unicorn; Blueberry Slushy, Cherry Slushy & Fizzy Pops
Kirin; Blackberry Birthday Cake

Get Out

Tomatoemeter: 99%

Caution; Spoiler Alert


Synopsis;
A young African-American man visits his Caucasian girlfriends mysterious family estate

Staring;
Daniel Kaluuya as Chris Washington
Allison Williams as Rose Armitage
Catherine Keener as Missy Armitage
Bradley Whitford as Dean Armitage
Caleb Landry Jones as Jeremy Armitage
Marcus Henderson as Walter
Betty Gabriel as Georgina
Lakeith Stanfield as Andrew Logan King



Storyline;
Chris and his girlfriend Rose go upstate to visit her parent's for the weekend. At first, Chris reads the family's overly accommodating behavior as nervous attempts to deal with their daughter's interracial relationship, but as the weekend progresses, a series of increasingly disturbing discoveries lead him to a truth that he never could have imagined.


Thoughts;
This movie will NOT disappoint! It was pretty amazing. Again, there’s not much of a back story, which is what I like. Give it to us, but don’t take up an hour with it.

This movie wasn’t so much scary as it was creepy! Watching it for the first time, you truly have no idea what’s going on in the Armitage estate. The “help” act strange as do the parents and brother. When the “get together” happens, things seem to get a little weirder. You can tell at this point that Chris is putting together that something is going on. He decides during the party that he is leaving, he tells his girlfriend Rose that they are going. As they make their way down the stairs and finds the rest of the family waiting. This is when you learn that Rose is in on the whole thing.

This movie was truly amazing, one of the best I’ve seen in awhile (besides split which we just also watched). It’s very hard to be original now, all writers can do is put their own spin on already there plots, this was pretty unique.

I also very much liked the comedic relief of the best friend, who happens to work for TSA. He also happens to save Chris, who has killed the family, Grandma and Grandpa too!

This was packaged so well! She had them in invididual boxes and all wrapped nicely in tissue paper and bags!

This was a spontaneous wax purchase. I saw the unicorn cups and they were so very cute, I just had to order it! This is a new to me vendor and I assumed it would all ship together since the sample was a pre-order and then the other two were RTS.

These smell so amazing! I can’t wait to get the sample!

Synopsis;

Staring;

Anya Taylor-Joy as Casey Cooke
Betty Buckley as Dr. Karen Fletcher
Haley Lu Richardson as Claire Benoit
Jessica Sula as Marcia
Izzie Coffey as 5 year old Casey
Brad William hence as Uncle John
Neal Huff as Mr. Benoit



Storyline;
When three girls are kidnapped by a man with 23 personalities, they have to work out which of those personalities will help them escape and which of those personalities will try to stop them


Thoughts;
This movie was amazing. It was just to the point of freaky where you want it move faster. James McAvoy is amazing as the girl who plays Claire.

We keep seeing flash backs of Claire’s past, which I’m not sure I really understood. I think it has to do with her will to live based on what she’s been through in her life. I really wish they would have touched on this more. My favorite was the very end of the movie where Bruce Willis is there and talks about “Mr. Glass” from un-breakable. That was an amazing ending.


After they get kidnapped the girls wake up in a room, there are two beds and a bathroom. They have no idea where they are or what they are doing. The movie goes from here with the girls trying to escape one by one. Towards the end of the movie when the Beast comes out is when the movie really gets going. You see the girls trying to escape, the Doctor waking up and the “turning of the beast”. It’s pretty amazing, you then find out that he has been living in an abandon part of the zoo maintance area. Claire is the only one who lives and I’m pretty sure they were pointing to the fact that she was not going home with the uncle.
