Gears of War 3 Review

After a long anticipated wait Gears of War 3 from Epic Games is now available for purchase along with a Gears of war Xbox 360 & matching controllers.Gears of War 3 is a third-person shooter video game developed by Epic Games & was one of the most anticipated games of 2011.I enjoyed Gears of war great story line decent game play over all good game,I liked Gears of war 2 still great story line,Added game play I have put many many hours into Gears 2 with that said I Love Gears 3 it is one of my all time favorite games keep reading to find out why.


Jumping into the game you experience crisp clear graphics,Smooth game play & as always the beloved characters Marcus Fenix & Dominic Santiago. Gears offers a fantastic two player game that my Fiance & I both enjoy so it is only Natural we play the game together from start to finish first thing I did on the Gears 3 Release date was head out to get my copy we put it in the Xbox as soon as I was home. The Gears team has really gone all out for Gears 3, If you played one of the first two gears you know how much of a pain chain sawing enemies could be if you got hit or stuck while starting up your chainsaw then after your enemy was killed your chainsaw would stop Gears 3 allows you to keep your chainsaw running killing multipule enemies at a time earning you achievements along the way.Having beat the game I can honestly say this is one of my top favorite games it has hours of entertainment,a fantastic story line though I was a little taken aback when one of my favorite characters in the game dies. Through the game you get to encounter some old enemies like the Tickers,Boomers,& Kantus but you also get to defeat some new foes which are the Savage Grenadier,Savage Theron,Digger Boomer,Locust Siege Beast,Kantus Knight & New Lambent enemies.A new aspect that has been added is Imulsion humans,Imulsion is a parasite which turns humans into a creature similar to zombies I enjoyed this because it was like playing Gears & another of my favorites Resident evil at the same time.


Other aspects of the new game play I enjoy are some new weapons which are as follows: Retro Lancer,Digger Launcher,Sawed-off Shotgun,Incendiary Grenades,The One-shot,Vulcan & The butcher's Cleaver.Gears 3 has added new playable female characters Samantha Byrne, Anya Stroud & Queen Myrrah whom all add some fun laughs to the game play because of their dialog,There are also new maps & fun new games[Such as Beast mode where you get to play as the Locust creatures not to mention their new experience,cash & award system unlike the other Gears games you can Level up,get Weapon skins,Earn money in Horde to buy barriers,turrets,decoys & more while also buying upgrades for the items purchased you gain money by how many kills you get,items destroyed & more. When I first heard about their cash award system & how you have to buy ammo in Horde I thought I wouldn't like it but having played the game I do really enjoy it I am glad they added it in,It proves a little more of a challenge because if you run out of cash you can only buy small items so you will have to save up to buy upgrades.Asking my Fiance what the first thing he would bring up about the new Gears game to someone who had never played it his response was 'The speed & camera angles were amazing I love what the creators have done with the new game they put a lot of though & effort into the game working out kinks & glitches to make a fantastic game into something mind blowing we plan on playing this game over & over again." There are Tons of unlockables which are all part of the fun,If your into any kind of war,shooting,or similar games I would suggest checking out Gears of War 3 I have a feeling it will climb its way to the top in no time.I could honestly talk about this game for an hour or two but that would be a Huge blog post,So I tried to point out the main differences in Gears 3 compared to the first two along with what I liked most about the game.


I know my post was a little all over the place but I am excited about this game there is a lot of great features to talk about.I would like to point out this is Not a paid post,I did not receive a free copy of this game & I was not compensated in any other way for this review.I personally went out & bought my own copy of Gears of War 3 my fiance & I play a ton of video games,with Gears being some of my favorite games I wanted to share what I thought about you.The next game release date I am looking forward to is the release of Batman: Arkham City.

Overall Beauty GIVEAWAY & Reveiw

Now its the time of day most of you are waiting for time for a new Giveaway! I have a giveaway to share with you today from a great company I have worked with in the past called Overall Beauty who sells a variety of makeup. Here is a Quote from their website "All of our MINERALS have a higher percentage of pure mineral colorants and NO FILLERS, so a small amount on your eye lids provides the same color depth as a heavy application of traditional pressed powder eye make up. A 5G jar of Overall Beauty MINERALS will last about twice as long as the same amount of cake eyeshadow" For my review I will be sharing their Overall Beauty Mineral eye shadows I received the following colors: Silver,Rag Doll,Flash Me,Dustbunny,Deadend



I can tell you right off the bat one of my favorite things about this company is that the Makeup you receive comes in a super cute handmade makeup bag [Made by Little Worm] it also comes with a great makeup brush. The eyeshadow is easy to apply it goes on smoothly, The colors come out a little lighter than they appear in the jar but I don't mind it because the colors look quite nice. I also enjoy the fact that Overall Beauty Minerals is animal cruelty free. They do not test on animals, nor do they believe in testing on animals. I like the colors I choose because sometimes I like to do themed makeup the Flash Me is perfect for use in Egyptian or Roman eye shadow tones because it is gold.



Above I used Flash Me & DustBunny,Since you only need a little bit of eye shadow these jars will last for a while depending on how often you use them to do your makeup.If you are unsure how to apply mineral makeup they have a "How to" page along with a video you can watch. The shipping from Overall Beauty is fast,& the owner Kim is super nice, Overall Beauty is a site worth checking out if your a makeup lover there are many other cosmetic items aside from eye shadow that you can check out.****This was not a paid post and my honest opinion was used. The opinions are solely my own and may vary from others.Products were Provided by Overall Beauty for the Review & Giveaway free of charge****

PRIZE ALERT:
One lucky winner will get to choose SIX Mineral eye shadows of their choice.

Anjolee Review



Before I jump into todays giveaway I want to share a review with you that goes along with today's giveaway. I recently worked with a company called Anjolee on a review, Who is Anjolee? They sell an assortment of Jewelry for everyone including Men's bracelets. For my review I received a Teardrop link Gemstone Bracelet with Amethyst stones. Here is some information from their website "This bracelet is the definition of elegance! Featuring charming, teardrop shaped gold or platinum links that stand out when separated by the round gemstone of your choice. Each gemstone is held secure with a two prong design so you really see the beauty of each stone"



The packaging was better than I thought it would be,This bracelet arrived inside of a White box with a royal blue bow when I opened the box I found a gorgeous bracelet box that looks like it is made from cherry wood & has a cushioned white inside. There are many things I like about this bracelet & two small things that I didn't like as much,Lets start with the things I did like first this bracelet is small & dainty a perfect addition to any dress or night out look.I also enjoy the fact that this bracelet is easy to put on & take off without any help from another person the clasp isn't bulky so it wont stick out like a sore thumb. I wore this bracelet around for a while to test out how well it wears I did notice that it slightly pulls on arm hair once in a while I have very short arm hair so I don't know if it made it pull more easily or not,I also noticed after two hours of wear one of the gems on the clasp fell out though without actually inspecting the bracelet you can't tell that it is missing aside from that small incident I think that this bracelet is well crafted & well thought out I love the elegant yet simple design.I also like the look of their Birthstone Bracelet.



I over all love this bracelet light weight,easy to put on,matches many out fits & classy. If you need jewelry for a special occasion or like wearing nice jewelry I suggest checking out Anjolee they offer Gemstone Bracelets ,necklaces,earring, Birthstone Bracelets & More in an assortment of colors,shapes,karats,& more. Anjolee has friendly customer service,fast shipping & extraordinary packaging.You can visit the Anjolee website or check them out on Facebook & Twitter ****This was not a paid post and my honest opinion was used. The opinions are solely my own and may vary from others.Products were Provided by Anjolee for the Review & Giveaway free of charge****

Plasmacar GIVEAWAY & Review

Ready for a fun new giveaway? This giveaway is fun for both kids & adults & you are about to find out why. I recently did a review for a company called Plasmacar "One of the world’s best-selling children’s ride-on-toys, the PlasmaCar’s unique and award-winning design requires no batteries, pedals, gears, or electrical parts to propel the car; you simply turn the steering wheel, and away you go! The PlasmaCar harnesses the natural forces of inertia, centrifugal force and friction."



Now I have to admit that I did have a hard time with the Steering wheel,The bolt got stuck & wouldn't move to tighten or loosen but I was able to get it back off to fix it.My Fiance couldn't quite grasp how the plasmacar was supposed to work,Showing him how it worked was quite fun my daughter & I both comfortably sit on the car.All you have to do to get the car moving is turn the steering wheel back & forth while slightly leaning forward.I haven't been able to take this to a park yet because I have been working a lot but I am looking forward to playing with it with my daughter,I think I may have a little more fun playing with this than my daughter it makes me feel like a big kid again.Not only does my daughter enjoy riding it by I like riding it myself & my fiance has tried it out as well.



We have used this everyday since we got it,Its fun to ride it around the house on the Tile & Wood.The Plasmacar can go forward or backwards depending on where you would like to go.I personally think that it is comfortable to sit on & is easy to use.My favorite thing about the Plasmacar is that it doesn't need a battery,you simply use your own strength.Over all I am very satisfied with this product it brings my daughter & myself entertainment,The Plasmacar is easy to transport & store when not in use.The photo above shows my daughter with the red Plasmacar it took me a while to get her to take a photo.****This was not a paid post and my honest opinion was used. The opinions are solely my own and may vary from others.Products were Provided by Plasmacar for the Review & Giveaway free of charge****


PRIZE ALERT:
One lucky winner will receive a Plasmacar of their own.

Talenti Gelato Review

It's time to share a fun review with all of you today.My family loves when we get to do reviews together instead of just one or two of us at a time so when I was invited to review Talenti Gelato I couldn't refuse.



I was sent a coupon in the mail for a free Pint from any local retailer which carries Talenti Gelato,Luckily enough the Target store I work at carried their product so I got it one night before heading home.,It was hard to decide which to get my family but I ended up picking the Belgian Milk Chocolate.This was the first time my family had tried Gelato we normally get regular ice cream so After that nights dinner we pulled out the Talenti Gelato to test out,The first thing I noticed was how soft the Gelato was it was very easy to scoop out.The Gelato had a very rich & creamy in flavor it only took a small bowl to fill us all up,We each were able to have two small bowls from the One Pint so for us 1 pint = 6 bowls. Looking on the back where the Nutrition facts are I realized this product is Gluten free,All natural,Vegetarian,Hormone free,& Contains soy which made me start wondering exactly how much healthier it was than ice cream so I did a little research & found out gelato has significantly less butterfat than ice cream's typical 18 and 26 percent it also has a has a much higher density than ice cream because they do not pump air into it like most ice cream makers.Needless to say my family & myself LOVE Talenti Gelato & will start buying Gelato instead of ice cream.



Above is a picture of my daughter enjoying her bowl of Talenti Gelato.****This was not a paid post and my honest opinion was used. The opinions are solely my own and may vary from others.Products were Provided by Talenti for the Review free of charge****

Obsessive Compulsive Cosmetics GIVEAWAY & Reveiw

It isn’t a huge secret that I Love makeup,though I love makeup not all makeup is created equally so I don’t love everything but what I do love I use & Buy all the time here is a shot of most of my makeup collection:




I recently had a chance to do a review for a company called Obsessive Compulsive Cosmetics who offers a wide line of cosmetics,For my review I was sent 6 Loose Colours eye shadows & 6 Lip tar lip glosses.The eyeshadow colors I received were: Cavu Blue,Saturate,Atmosphere ,Burning ,Cherry Bomb,Pollencount & The lip glosses in: Tarred,RX,Reverb,Tone,Pageant,Trollop.Below you can see Cavu Blue,Saturate,Pollencount & Cherry Bomb in the eye shadow the other two I do not have photos of since these products are 100% VEGAN & animal cruelty free I passed on two of the eye shadows to a good friend who is a vegan.




I really enjoy the colors of the Loose eye shadows,It goes on smoothly & bright it also washed off very easily.One of my favorite things to do is wear two colors of eye shadows & slightly blend them in the middle so it is always nice when the shades mix perfectly,The OCC shadow was easy to mix the Cavu Blue & Saturate mix perfectly it has been one of my new favorites which I have been carrying in my purse.The Lip tar glides on smooth,You only need a small amount to cover your lip & it is long lasting the colors is Vibrant.I am picky about my lip gloss mainly because I never really use lip gloss only lip balm so I can say that I am so so with their lip tar but I really Love their eye shadow. Obsessive Compulsive Cosmetics has fast shipping & friendly customer service I would gladly work with & order from them again as I would be very interested in trying their nail polish colors.Below I have included two photos of what the eye shadows Cavu Blue,Saturate,Pollencount & Cherry Bomb look like when applied,The Saturate is a little hard to see but all four colors were used,I also only used ONE layer of each there is no need to coat these colors to get them to be bold & bright they do it all on their own. Disclaimer: OCC Products were sent for consideration****This was not a paid post and my honest opinion was used. The opinions are solely my own and may vary from others.Products were Provided by Obsessive Compulsive Cosmetics for the Review free of charge,Giveaway items are being provided by Me****
