Book Review: Lie In The Tide by Holly Danvers

Image
Lie In The Tide by Holly Danvers opens with four high school friends meeting up in Cape Cod, Massachusetts for a reunion of sorts. When one of them doesn't show up, and no one can get a hold of her, the other friends are desperate to find out what happened. NetGalley, thank you for the Advanced Readers Copy (ARC) of this novel. I requested a copy of this book based on their synopsis and the author. When my request was approved, I was thrilled. The story started off well and kept me wanting to know more. Early on, I thought I had everything figured out, but much to my surprise, there was a plot twist I didn't count on.  I won't say more as to not spoil it for others. It's an easy read and perfect to take on vacation. Although I enjoyed Lie In The Tide by Holly Danvers a lot, I wish there was more action in the first half of the book. The second half was action packed, and I found myself rushing to finish the story to see if my gut instinct was correct. As for the charact...

Product Review: Boi-ing Cakeless Concealer by Benefit Cosmetics of San Francisco

When Influenster.com contacted me to let me know I was receiving a voxbox with a product in it for me to review, I was ecstatic. I was even happier when I realized it was an under eye concealer because I always have dark circles due to extremely bad allergies. I'm just about allergic to everything outside!

Since I work from home, I don't always wear makeup like I use to when I had to go into an office, so one of the first chances I had to test out the Boi-ing Cakeless Concealer by Benefit Cosmetics of San Francisco was when I went to see the Broadway show Cats when it was in Atlanta. It was the perfect time to try it out because I had bronchitis, and the circles under my eyes were exceptionally dark.

The Boi-ing Cakeless Concealer went on smoothly and was cakeless as promised by Benefit Cosmetics of San Francisco. It blended well into my foundation and the concealer actually matched my skin tones extremely well. Most makeup tends to be too dark for me, even the lightest of the lightest because I'm so pale. It doesn't help me any that I don't sun myself . . . I don't tan; I burn, and I don't want all that sun damage to my skin! (And, I know way too many people who now have skin that looks like leather from years of laying out in the sun or in tanning beds, and I don't want my skin to look like that.)

Because my circles are so dark, I do have trouble finding concealer that actually hides them. Benefit Cosmetics of San Francisco's Boi-ing Cakeless Concealer is the best that I've tried so far, so I'll likely buy this product when I run out of the concealer.

Another thing I liked about this product is that the packaging is minimal, so I like that they seem to be environmentally conscientious. And, the actually container is super cute . . . it is made to look like a pencil with an eraser. It appears that their target audience is likely a much younger one than me, but don't let that stop you from buying the concealer.

All in all, I was very happy with the end result and would give Boi-ing Cakeless Concealer by Benefit Cosmetics of San Francisco 4.5 stars out of 5 stars. I received this product for free from Influenster.com for my honest review.
