Korean Lip Tints: Etude House,The Saem & Skinfood (Swatches & Review)
I got a little bit obsess with korean lip tints they are so affordable and can be worn all year long no matter what age group!
The products I'm gonna show and mention in today's blog post are:
Etude House Dear Darling Tint #1
The Saem Saemmul Real Tint #3
Skinfood Tomato Cool Jelly Tint
Here are some of my thoughts I'd like to share with you starting with my least favorite product which is Skin food's tomato tint I have high hopes and expectations for this one.I'm disappointed when I tried and used it because it has a perfume scent,the jelly like texture is okay most of all it has the least color payoff. I also has a tear drop shape like applicator which I somewhat appreciate.


As for their Applicator, Etude got a much more slightly bended portion in the end while The Saem felt a lot more sturdy.
Overall, I think these two tints are great! it all goes down which brand you're most fond of and the packaging (if that ever matters to you).Although when I tried to remove it with an oil base lip makeup remover The Saem's stain is the toughest one to budge and so I choose The Saem in the end if ever I'd recommend one of the two haha!

Benefit Lollitint Review and Swatch
it's a very small sample, the brush applicator is kinda like nail polish

very light and sheer
Left: with 3 layers on Right : with one layer on
I find it very interesting at first especially the application then again after 5-10 minutes when I licked my lips it feels weird like it doesn't have any chemical taste or smell to it it's just the texture/aftertaste I feel like I need to spit it out and get rid of the product on my lips..after that the product still did and left some tint color my lips it just looks natural that's all. Overall 1 out of 5 stars it's nice to play around with it that's it.I don't recommend it and definitely won't be buying a full size product! so sad! :/

Absolute Boyfriend by Yuu Watase | Japanese Tv Series Live Adaptation Review
As for the Live Action/Japanese Tv Series Adaptation well it wasn't the same as the manga if that's what you're wondering but it has the same concept of Night/AI technology being there.

First episode: Apr 15, 2008
Last episode: Jun 24, 2008
Episode duration: 40 minutes
Number of episodes: 12
About:
A Japanese romance comedy drama television series based on the original manga novel Absolute Boyfriend by Yuu Watase. Mokomichi
A Japanese romance comedy drama television series based on the original manga novel Absolute Boyfriend by Yuu Watase. Mokomichi
Cast:
Hayami -Night Tenjo
Saki Aibu - Riiko Izawa
Mizushima Hiro- Asamoto Soshi
At first I'm kinda disappointed how this isn't the same as the manga but then again it has a great cast and everything simply builds up and grows on you every after episode.In the live-action version, Riiko Izawa is an office lady in search of a boyfriend, and she ends up in possession of a "robot" known as Night Tenjo, who is programmed to be the perfect boyfriend. However, this creates a love triangle with a distinguished young man at her company who also has feelings for her.
A couple of years later I found out that on March 24, 2009, a special episode of this series was released and featured 3 years after the last episode of the series, whereas Riiko had become a pâtissier and is engaged to Soshi Asamoto; and Night was suddenly revived by a Kronos Heaven employee, who wanted to use his individual ego to her own gain. At the end of this special episode, Night is last seen telling Namikiri to erase him from this world while shedding tears. Riiko at last, returns to Soshi's side and their marriage goes on, but this is not shown on screen.
All the feels came gushing over me I mean OMG! in that very special episode alone I feel like I finally had some closure with this series although it's a weird mix of happiness and sadness but overall the story was greatly delivered it captured the audiences heart, everybody deserves to move on and get on with their lives.
For the first live adaptation I gave it four out of five stars simply because I'm disappointed in the some parts I thought it has more manga-ishess to it but the cast redeemed themselves especially with the special episode in which I gave five out of five stars.
Overall I love the manga and live adaptation experience I wonder in a couple of years time if the robot and human roles would be reverse hmm...something to think about some other time yeah haha! what about you? what do you think? have you read this series yet? did you like the live adaptation? feel free to share your thoughts in the comment section below ^_^

The Walking Dead Season 5 | finale & whole season review + spoilers
Season 5: 16 episodes
Premiered: October 12, 2014
Concluded: March 29, 2015
Episode duration: 45 minutes
Finale: 90 minutes
My thoughts:
To be honest the whole time I'm watching the finale I constantly fear that someone from Rick's Group either Glenn or Daryl would die why did I thought of that? Well someone from the Alexandria's Camp hates Glenn since the last mission as for Daryl well he's out there once again hunting,recruiting people I know they're strong it's just that I'm so worried so many people around the interwebs are saying/speculating Glenn's gonna be next or in the blah blah blah comics this is this and that although if some of you may or may not know the comics is quite different from the tv series but still ya know you can never can tell haha!
I for one haven't gotten over volume I of the comics so I only know a few mostly the beginning.I'm actually a bit hesitant about watching this series since there's zombies involve and I'm quite a scaredy cat when it comes to that til one day I decided to desensitize myself to finally get over it! I'm really glad how things turned up in the end.
Spoiler Alert!
What I love in the Finale is Rick's old friend Morgan found Daryl and rescued them it seems he regained his sanity again their reunion of course was a bit shocking I guess and it's like the other way around since we last saw them get together.Oh the cliffhanger of it all ugh must wait til season 6 to find out what happens next -_-
I found a very detailed recap around the interwebs here read all about it.Thanks sleepy eye herald-dispatch for that very spot on post.
As for the entire season I gotta say overall everything came nicely together especially in the end there's lots of unexpected twist and each episode title makes sense to me now.This kept me on the edge of my seat every single time and it seems that I tend to cry every season whether in joy or sorrow. I hope everything turns out well and for the best of season 6.
My season 6 expectations/speculations would be of course Morgan (Rick's Old Friend) they would catch up,what happened til they last met,how he found him stuff like that. Alexandria vs. The Wolves.The Alexandrians would learn how to defend themselves,survive and thrive some of them might die.Hopefully by the end of it all Alexandria would survive all attacks and still be left standing. Watch out for Sasha and Father Gabriel due to their suicidal thoughts they might lose it next season or regain some sanity for the sake of it all #survivorsguilt
P.S
There's an upcoming Los Angeles spin off of this series.
Absolute Boyfriend by Yuu Watase | Manga Review
Genre: Comedy, Drama, Romance, School Life, Sci-fi, Shoujo

Synopsis (from Viz):

The very next day a cute naked guy is delivered to her door, and he wants to be her boyfriend!Has Riiko died and gone to heaven? The cute guy turns out to be sweet, smart, a great cook, and lots more. And he looks like a million bucks, which is what he's going to cost Riiko if she doesn't return him in time...

The cute guy turns out to be sweet, smart, a great cook, and lots more. And he looks like a million bucks, which is what he's going to cost Riiko if she doesn't return him in time...
My thoughts:
What if you could really get a perfect boyfriend and order him online? wouldn't that be great? everything would be grand and just the way you like it, all your problems would be solve in an instant like things you couldn't do your boyfriend could do it for you with a smile. The catch is that kind of boyfriend and technology would cost you a lot! but then again that versus with the cost of your happiness so would you take it?
I really love this story! I love it so much it hurts and the feels are just so great it took me awhile to get over it although I'm not even sure if I'm over it yet even after so many years!.The AI (Artificial Intelligence) idea has been done so many times and in those times that I've read such story like Chobits and this one I usually ended up crying T_T
Yes,I cried so many times in this story alone.It's so heart warming,the scenarios very human and relateable I want to order a perfect boyfriend of my own haha! kidding aside but those instances wherein you find yourself in dire need of assistance and moments where you need someone to be there with you in an instant is the kinda of thing I think most of us wants your own person there with you by your side.
The characters in this world they're regular,ordinary people (except for the AI of course).Riiko tries her best in most situations the moment Night came into her life changes everything! the most exciting bits for me is when Night got into a fight also those times when Riiko's so amaze Night can do anything so extraordinarily well (ok he's a robot but still!) the plot twist for me in the end kinda caught me by surprise I never really thought that could ever happen it's a happy sad ending for me. Let's just say it's one of those series I'd like to be longer but hey I think even with six volumes it ended pretty well the story lives on within us.With that being said I highly recommend this series and gave it five out of five stars!

Haikyu by Haruichi Furudate | Anime Review
Duration: Season 1 (25 episodes), 25 minutes per episode
About the show:
is a slice-of-life sports anime revolving around Shoyo Hinata’s love of volleyball. Inspired by a small-statured pro volleyball player, Hinata creates a volleyball team in his last year of middle school.

After the crushing defeat, Hinata vows to surpass Kageyama After entering high school, Hinata joins the volleyball team only to find that Tobio has also joined. (more)
My thoughts:
One of my closest friends recommended this show to me and I instantly got hooked! if you haven't watched it yet go ahead and check it out for yourself if that first episode won't get you I dunno what will well perhaps when you get to know this series a bit better or if you love volleyball I guess that could also get you plus it's extremely funny! I can't stop laughing every after episode the animation,joke and characters in this series are definitely spot on!they're very lively,always pushing/encouraging themselves to do their best, their expressions so bold,vivid and expressive.
So far my favorite character is Tanaka his thug gangsta like personality never fails to amaze and makes me laugh every single time.
The overall presentation,art style and format of this series took sports anime and volleyball for me to a whole new level. This is also the first volleyball sports anime I watched and loved so I couldn't really compare it to anything else (yet)
Even after a long day I can count on Haikyu to rejuvenate my soul and entire existence.That's how awesome this show is!
I gave it five out of five stars!

As a counter force, a mysterious organization created half-human, half-Yoma warriors known as the "Silver Eyed Witches" or "Claymores," after the huge claymore swords they carry. They are detested by humanity however necessary.
The story begins with a young boy, Raki, who has lost everything in a Yoma attack, and the Claymore, Clare, who is generally detested by society. Throughout the series, Clare and Raki show their deeper qualities, powers and Clare's never ending devotion to the goal she swore to fulfill in her childhood.
__________________________________________________________________
My thoughts:
I think I came across this series about the same time I started watching Bleach way back 2007 along with other animes. What I love about it is that it's filled with strong female characters and even the under dogs rise above to prove their foes wrong also the way their eyes change colors to release their limit in order to increase their speed,stamina,strength,powers and all that I think that was pretty amazing! their sword,fighting skills are all different and unique.

I watched the anime first which was faithful to the manga storytelling and then afterwards read the manga the rest of the way and just recently had closure with it I've been putting it back for quite some time now and I like how the characters evolve and grow.The ending was also pretty nice.
Just in case you don't know what I'm talking about although this happened pretty much early on the series I'm just gonna put a spoiler alert.
__________________________________________________________________
Spoiler Alert!
As far as I could recall in the anime/series Teresa of Faint Smile (#1 claymore,the 182nd warrior of the 77th generation created by the Organization.) found Clare when she was still a little girl then she started accompanying Teresa til one day Teresa got killed in one on her mission. Clare got taken in and went to the organization in order to became a claymore herself.
__________________________________________________________________
So our main character is Clare she's only a quarter yoma and number 47,the lowest ranking member in the organization (in her batch) became the successor of Teresa of faint smile flesh and blood. She then found a boy named Raki and she doesn't want to get attached to him knowing what she been through with Teresa. Even after knowing this Raki remained and tried to stick with Clare. Along the way Clare hone her skills,met fellow claymores,befriended and even got close to some of them,learn from each other and went through hell and back again in their missions.

| Crazy battle ahead |
This series has a lot of blood spilled,so many people died and I'm actually a bit surprised when I found out that there are also some male claymores but their creation was stopped by the organization due to their high level percentage of awakening.
Being an awakened being means there's no going back and you'd be a complete monster! although that is quite an understatement and what people mostly believed but as you go on with the story you'll find out about their back stories, how they can switch back and forth in their original and yoma form.Also how a certain awakened being tried to seek out means to end her life.
The journey of these claymores are indeed very long and hard but they all endured and persevered til the very end.That's also one of the main reason I love and highly recommend this series. It's action pack,full of epic battles,transformation,coming of age story sort of way their adventure will take you to the next level.
And as for the ending I'll give you a clue and leave you with this picture below it's a Statue of Twin Goddesses if you tuned in to the series/read the whole thing you'd get what I mean.Epic battle! I got a bit emotional in the end and still don't want it to end! so yeah I'll give Claymore Anime/Manga series five out of five stars! I really hope you check it out and if you already did what are your thoughts about it?tell me in the comment section below ^_^
