The Sony Playstation 4 VR is one word...AMAAAAZING! The virtual reality headset for the PS4 is very new and at the moment, fairly expensive (you will pay up to $1000 for everything) but SO with it. For a retail level virtual reality experience the PS4 VR is completely immersive and absolutely impressive. Ocean Descent is a 360 degree "dive to the bottom of the ocean" experience title that is both beautiful and loads of fun. The shark attack is startling and realistic! I'm not kidding when I say you really feel as though you are there.
There are probably about 60 titles currently available ranging from short VR experiences and videos to more full games (Resident Evil looks to be like one that will be super popular and VERY scary, I played just the demo and almost couldn't stick with it!) The unit also works with Youtube and you can watch an assortment of 360 videos or regular videos that display as though watching a cinema screen.
If you get a chance to try this, do. If you get a chance to buy this, go for it!

I recently purchased the Urban Decay Vice Lipstick in "Naked" and LOVE it! It goes on easily and adds just the right amount of natural but enhanced looking color. It's not matte but not too sticky (which I hate). The nude look seems to be the thing right now and it's hard to find a great shade but for me, (with light skin, dark hair and medium eyes) this shade works great; I think it's the kind of shade that can work for a variety of skin tones.
I decided to try this color after seeing the ad with Ruby Rose wearing the shade and have no regrets! The lip pencil in the same color is a little less effective in my opinion; it goes on fairly light and doesn't really have great staying power.

Dailyburn.com is a wonderful internet site that offers a variety of workouts for a small monthly fee (about 12-16 dollars per month depending where you live). Initially you answer a few questions and some program recommendations are made for you. My favourite workouts are the Pilates and Yoga programs; there are many options to choose from and each tailors a workout program that lasts for several weeks and guides you through a series of workout videos. The workouts are fun and come in a range of difficulty; they have a great starting out program to ease you into or back into a fitness routine before tackling some of the harder programs. The instructors are personable and the site is easy to use, it even includes meal suggestions and fitness articles. I've had a lot of success losing some weight and improving my fitness using this site and have recommended it to many people! -

I do like the Glaceau Vitamin Waters but some flavours are definitely better than others. My favourite is the Mega C Dragonfruit flavour, it's fairly light, refreshing and doesn't leave a heavy aftertaste. The Zero products in the line are less successful in my opinion. As with many "diet" products, they have a funny flavour and aftertaste, I'm assuming due to the use of whatever sweeteners are in the beverage. It's up to you if you believe these are providing you any health benefits; I enjoy them occasionally strictly from the perspective that they are a tasty drink with some unique flavour combos to choose from. I wish they would sell the Green Tea flavour in Canada, I have never seen it anywhere. -

Love these and always stock up when they have their sales. I do find that these are more noticeable for the first couple of days you use them but that could just be that you become used to the scent. I haven't found any that I really dislike and most of them smell great without being too overpowering or sickly sweet or strong. I prefer the fruity scents as they are clean and light. Every year there are some great seasonal choices as well; Winter Candy Apple is a personal favorite from this past Christmas season! -

I love this product because it is light and makes your skin dewy and fresh. It's not a heavy coverage if used properly so you don't look over made up; just brighter and alert! What I don't like about this product is that I find the container it comes in leaky; this has twice now sort of poured out the top when I've opened it, almost like air built up and forced the product out. I'm not sure if that's just my experience or not. -

I bought the Schwarzkopf Keratin hair colour because although my hair is not exactly that aged yet, it does have some grey (I started in my 20's!!) and I wanted something effective to cover it up! This product does the job beautifully, leaving your hair soft, shiny and full of depth and dimension. I've only gotten compliments after using this product! I used color 4.6 Intense Cocoa most recently. -

I purchased this mascara because I wanted something long lasting that would create that lush, full eyelash look with staying power and everything I had read about this product indicated that I could achieve that. Unfortunately, this product was a bit of a disaster for me. Rather than the soft, fluttery lashes promised, I was rewarded with clumpy, harsh lashes served up from a bottle that seemed to over coat the applicator in an extremely messy fashion. The applicator was also difficult to clean off evenly before trying to apply and I used this only a few times before giving up and buying a different mascara entirely. With so many choices out there there is no need to settle for a product that only makes things messy! -
