While we wait..

Hello,

So, I figured while I wait for the first sub boxes to arrive, why not write about some of the things I got today while back to school shopping with one of my kids.
I'll start with the highlighters. And boy are they bright!! They are Color Story Dewy Glow, Liquid highlighters. They look insane! I searched them on the back of my hand a little over 2.5 hours ago now, & they still have not rubbed off or smudged! The shine is intense, so if you want a nice bright liquid highlighter, these are definitely for you! It comes with 4 colors, the darkest color being a reddish pink tint, and the other 3 are fairly light, 1 is like a blush pink (sheer) 1 is like a taupe/gold sheer tint and the last is a very light (I mean barely there) pink tint and is also sheer.
Price-$18.99 @ Ardene

The next items are both an Eau Dr Partum. The first is Still Heart, (an impression of Rihanna's Rogue Love, By Rihanna) and holy only does it ever smell amazing!! It's not a floral or citrus type scent, it's honestly difficult to explain, it's just something you really need to smell for yourself! I sprayed some on a few hours ago now, & it's still going strong and smelling fantabulous! ;)

The second is called Heavenly Babe, an impression of Abercrombie and Fitch8 and it really is heavenly!! Again, it's not floral or citrus-y...and like the other, the scent was sprayed a few hours ago and is still smelling amazing!!

Both bottles are priced at $7.99, (but as of this post, Aug 31/2019, they are on sale at Bluenotes 2/$12!!)

And last, but certainly not least, is the Subtle C Rosehip & Lavener facial mist. This spray calms and soothes your skin. & boy does it ever! Nothing is better than a beautiful hydrating mist for your face and neck to help you relax after a long stressful day at work or school...or shopping (cuz let's face it, shopping is about as stressful as anything!! Nobody likes going into crowded places to spend their hard earned money am I right!!) So when you get home, and take off your make-up, spray this amazing mist on your face and neck, & your skin will thank you!!

Price-$8.99 @ Ardene 

 So that's it for now, I'll try to put up some more posts/reviews over the next days/weeks while waiting for sub boxes to arrive. If you have any suggestions for things to review, or if there's anything in particular you are interested in but aren't quite sure about that you would like reviewed before you go out and buy it, please feel free to let me know :)

Thanks! 

Till the next time 🦄

Hello, nice to meet you! I'm....

Hello All,

 This is my first post on this blog, & I wanted to have the first post with info about myself, and about what type of things you'll eventually find here :) So, here we go!

 First, I'll start off by telling you about myself. I'm a 36 year old single mother of 3 daughter's (18, 15 & 11 <as of the date this post is made) I was in a very long term relationship, 13 years, and Nov 30/2016 he was tragically killed in a car accident. Since then, there has been too many more deaths of people I love and that are close to me. Late last year, my best friend of a number of years, Rob, was in a motorcycle accident and spent 8 days in a coma, and 40+ days in hospital recovering. Shortly before he was released from the hospital we started dating. It's been a long road for him, but his recovery has been nothing short of amazing! Then earlier this year, tragedy struck again, my mum became very sick and was taken into the hospital. Where myself, Rob, and my sister Julie spent 9 days in the hospital by her side, until she ultimately passed away.
A month or so later, my youngest daughter was pushed at school on the ice, & fell & broke her collar bone. She healed incredibly fast, but while getting xrays to make sure her shoulder was healing properly, the doctor noticed something worrying in her upper back and ordered more xrays. She had more xrays and was diagnosed with idiopathic s oliosis. She has a double curve in her spine. 32° & 36°, & with that we were referred to a specialist at another hospital in a different province, & started the journey towards her getting a back brace. And while my youngest was going through that, my middle daughter was having issues with her jaw. It was found she has issues with her TMJ, a muscle in her jaw which causes her mouth to lock in a shut position. She has issues opening her mouth to do everyday things like eat, brush her teeth etc so she has had to make lots of trips to the dentist to figure out how we can fix it. We have since ordered a mouth guard for her, and we're hoping it will help realign her jaw while she sleeps over time and will help relieve the pain it causes her.

 Now on to what this blog is actually going to be about! 😉I have a weak spot for subscription boxes...of all types! Make-up, card/craft kits, clothing &accessories, fitness etc etc. Now I know this isn't anything that hasn't been done before, but I can honestly say I personally haven't seen a blogger that does all different types of sub boxes, most tend to stick to certain types, like craft/card kits, or make-up/clothing/accessories etc. I'm not by any means saying it hasn't or isn't being done, I just personally haven't seen it :) and Thus you have, Receive Try Review! :)
 If you have made it to this point, I want to thankyou so much for reading, & I hope you check back for my first actual review, the August 2019 BoxyCharm:)
