Thoughts;
One person took on all this in the Waxopedia group on facebook. It was an idea that someone in the group had and it was just ran with. The girl who took the reigns sold these from her personal Etsy site. She announced right after that she will not do it again as people left her bad reviews. I’m sure it was a lot of work but it was really nice to be a part of this and to purchase one!

Extra Love; Small scent shot of Jolly Rancher, scent shot in Strawberry Lemonade/Cheesecake, tarts in Cinnamon, Love Spell/Strawberries and Cream, Waste no wax, Strawberry Lemonade and a clam in Vanilla Pumpkin Pie

Thoughts;
I have been seeing Jessica around making wax and wanted to give her a try for a little while now. I’m pretty sure she made wax before so this isn’t her first time, I just think she started selling it vs. making it for herself.

It all smells very good and I will melt it after I hoard it for a bit!

Staring;
Kevin Costner as Ethan Renner
Amber Heard as Vivi Delay
Hailee Steinfeld as Zooey Renner
Connie Nielsen as Christine Renner

Thoughts;
This movie had everything good that should appear in an action movie. The CIA, a character called “The Wolf” and a very good action packed opening scene, however that’s it. This movie was not as good as it could/should have been.

First off, it went down hill right after it opened. Then it got weird. It was way too long and everything could have been done in less time. Along with the ending that was way to easy to figure out.

Book; Down the Rabbit Hole; By; Holly Madison

As a reader, I thought I would add this to my blog along with movies and wax! All things I love :) Thank for taking the time to check it out

Down the Rabbit Hole
Curious Adventures and Cautionary Tales of a Former Playboy Bunny
 



Author; Holly Madison
Came out; June 2015
Read on; Nook
Rating; Per Amazon 4.1/5


Caution; Spoiler Alert


Synopsis;
The shocking, never-before-told story of the bizarre world inside the legendary Playboy Mansion—and, finally, the secret truth about the man who holds the key—from one of the few people who truly knows: Hef’s former #1 girlfriend and star of The Girls Next Door
A spontaneous decision at age twenty-one transformed small-town Oregon girl Holly Sue Cullen into Holly Madison, Hugh Hefner’s #1 girlfriend. But like Alice’s journey into Wonderland, after Holly plunged down the rabbit hole, what seemed like a fairytale life inside the Playboy Mansion—including A-list celebrity parties and her own #1-rated television show for four years

Thoughts;
I was a GND fan at the time, I am also a celebrity gossip freak (it’s my guilty pleasure) so these types of books/tv shows always interest me. I like biographies.

During it’s hayday, I used to refer to the girls as such;
Kendra; The Dumb One
Bridget; The Smart One
Holly; The Hot One

I think I expected more from this, more about behind the scenes. I know there was a lot of this in the book, but I felt as if it were lacking something. I also felt like, even though the book was nicely put together, the chapters were too long and it was hard to read. Maybe it just didn’t peak my interest.

I wish she would included more of her life now, we know that she had a daughter that she oddly named “Rainbow” and got married, but really, what is she doing now? All in all I would call this book ok and I probably wouldn’t recommend it.

What I Received;
·        Jewelry Tart in Sadie’s Shortcake

Extra Love; Small scent shots; Citrus Strawberry, Agave Lime and Berry Crunch

Thoughts;
Between a few wax review groups, True Wax Review and HONEST Reviews on facebook I had heard so much about Iddy Biddy! I decided to give it a try.

The smells are amazing. The box was so good to sniff! I found it a little odd that the jewelry wasn’t actually in the tart, for me, that’s the best part!

TAT was also super quick, I ordered Friday and received on Monday giving Kushner a run for her money! LOL

I haven’t melted anything yet, but I can’t wait!

P.S. Her Business card says; “Scent Wax….Because it smells so good” very cute!

Movie; Devil Seed (The Devil in Me) (2012) Caution; Spoiler Alert

Devil Seed (The Devil in Me)

 The Devil in Me (2012) Poster

Came out; 2012
Time; 108 Minutes

Watched on; Netflix

Rating; None Listed

IMDB Rating; 4.1
Rotten Tomatoes Score; No score yet

Caution; Spoiler Alert


Synopsis; This movie is about Alex, a returning college student who moves in with her girlfriends after the holidays. They go out and have quite a few drinks and on the way home Alex and her friend Jessica go to a psychic where Alex has an episode and freaks out her friend and the psychic. The next day Alex doesn't have any memory of what happened and her friends think there's something going on with her. Over time, she starts having things happen to her, scratches, visions and ultimately rape from some being. Her friends start to worry about her even more and things take a turn for the worst when she loses control. What is inside her, and will they all live?


Staring;
Michelle Argyris as Alex Froshiber
Shantelle Canzanese as Jessica Martin
Vanessa Broze as Breanne Whitaker
Kevin Jake Walker as Brian Wolski



Thoughts;
Tired and Boring. This movie really didn’t “take off” until the middle. There is no explanation as to what happened to her and why. It, like many movies was much longer than it needed to be. The back and side stories need to be there to understand the plot, however this was just odd since all the back story involved around the “priest” who doesn’t even show up until the end of the movie.

There were no good jump scenes, nothing good at all really. It seems to have been left open since at the end a couple is adopting her baby.

Thoughts;
This was my first purchase with Sensei. I have seen other videos of Bonsai bags before, but this being their anniversary bag I thought I’d give them a try.

The do smell really good and are very “pretty” to look at. I couldn’t find on the web site or on the label if these are 100% soy or Parasoy. I find it a little odd that this information cannot be easily found.

I am glad I got to try Sensei, but I don’t know if I would make another purchase.
