Yves Saint Laurent Touche Eclat Blur Primer and Touche Eclat Blur Perfector Review

Hi Alls,
   Today I received YSL's Touche Eclat Blur Primer and Touche Eclat Blur Perfector to use and abuse then post a review. =D   Anyways, here is a little about it.

{ PRIMER }
The primer has specks of gold it in, to illuminate your skin and the liquid keeps you skin matte and feels rather velvety.  When the bottle is unscrewed, there is a little spatula attached to it for easy application. Upon application I blended it in with my fingertips in gentle circular motions. viola!

I would say, I like this product.  I am a long time user of Benefit's Porefessional, but I feel this primer has the same affect, just not in the same form and added bonus of the gold flecks.  I will give it 4 out 5 stars.

{ Profector }
Okay, this right here, is my favorite! Its a BALM in case you didn't know.  For one it becomes a powder on application.  I use it to set my foundation, or on lazy days just over my sunscreen to achieve a more even and matte face. YAY! NO MAKEUP MONDAYS! Anyways,  the puff it comes with is great and all you can carry it around with you to touch up.  I use my beauty blender to apply it at home and the puff for touch ups.  It comes with a little black dust bag so that the pretty case won't get scratched up (oh! the thought that went into this!)   I will give this a 5 out of 5 for its multi function use the time it lasts (about 6 hours) and pretty package.

Just for your references I have never bought any cosmetic items from YSL so this review is solely on these products and not the brand itself.

Baby Killing Mothers

Scrolling though my news app on a day to day basis has become a ritual to me now. Its quite obvious the media does often speculate the worse of all news.  But lately there has been more than normal amounts of news about mothers killing their young ones.  As this is quite disturbing news,  one has to wonder this does happen more often than we can even fathom.

I am not one to judge, but wouldn't abortion also count as killing ones child?  Don't get me wrong here, but we all know this is a touchy feeling topic. Pro-Choice or Pro-Life??  It irritates me to hear someone who is Pro-Choice to yabber on and on about how this woman is a monster for killing her own child. UH, hey didn't you "Technically" kill your child too??  But it also irritates me to hear someone who is Pro Choice yabbering on about how the system is messed up and if you can't teach your children then don't have them.  Well that is.....ironic.

Point is, of course it is wrong to kill a child.  They are innocent creatures, who have yet to do any wrongs.  But don't sit on your fanny and think, "oh poor child" "that mother is a monster!" do something, children are being killed in third world countries because of many reasons the parents cannot take care of them, they are not wanted, etc etc.  Why don't you donate some of that $$ to an orphanage who will take care of these children so they don't end up in another grave.

Here ya go, your welcome.

Korean Drama > City Hunter

Have you seen Boys Before Flowers? If you have an utter fondness for the main character of that drama (Lee Min Ho) you will like City Hunter (because he is the main character) I myself, don't care much for the guy but, eh thats just me. Anyways after finishing this drama, all I have to say was.....wtf! It was a complete rip off of "A Man Called God" except for the lack of good looking people in that drama, it is almost identical.  The ending, however, was a bust. I mean my brother was hyping it up so much I just had to see what it was all about.

I mean it wasn't all bad, it had its ups and downs. It just bothered me that, the whole time I was watching this drama, I kept comparing it to "A Man Called God"

So here is the synopsis on the drama in a nutshell, back in 1983 there was a bomb in Burma that killed a bunch of high ranking caviar eating right folks, orchestrated by the North Koreans. To strike back, the South Korean sent in 2 of the Presidential Security (who were present during the bombing) and 12 of their top men into North Korea in a covert operation.  This caused problems back in South Korea, therefore some high ranking officials in South Korean decided to abort the plan fearing that the United States would withdraw its nuclear protection.  In order to keep the operation a hush their own country sends in snipers to take them out, killing all but one.  He bears a grudge and kidnaps a child of one of his deceased colleague to plot the ultimate revenge.

RATING 3/5 STARS OKAY, not anything spectacular

Renting Apartment Adventure

So for a while now I have been living in one of my family's single family home with a few room mates.  My boyfriend, however, has been urging me to move out with him for about a year now. ( I finally gave in ) So, the first task at hand was to look for an apartment.  I remember as a child my parents would drive around and stop at any "For Rent" signs that were posted up.  So, although we did our due diligence online, we still went for a drive.  Surprisingly, there were NO SIGNS up! So we just went to the addresses we got off craigslist, to our surprise even those didn't have signs up! (talk about a buzz kill)

Anyways, after hours of driving around we FINALLY found a "For Rent" sign, it was like it was glowing and the angels were singing while our eyes were bulging out of its sockets. We noted the phone number and called, the owner (who just happened to live in one of the complexes came out) it was an elderly Korean lady and her husband (aw how cute!) ...it also points out as to why the sign was posted up. I set my budget at $1350 for a 2 bedroom 1 bath apartment (which is decent, since nicer ones go for about $1700-$2000) ...she told me the rent would be at $1400....  

( >_< ) OIIIYAH!!!

After looking around....I guess the extra $50 bucks is worth it since it is newly remodeled and in a good neighborhood. Point is, living in Northern California is burning a hole in my bank account, owning a car is super expensive (payments, registration, insurance, smog, gas...the list goes on), rent is a bitch, internet and cable bill is 150+...staying connected is friggin expensive! Comes to show why I have been so busy to blog lately. Eat, work, eat, school, eat, work, exercise, sleep ...REPEAT.
