The Snow Fairy is coming

Advantages: Fun, girly, sparkly
Disadvantages: Too sweet for me

...It's nearly Christmas and the snow fairy is coming!! I have read about Lush Snow Fairy shower gel on this site for quite a few years now and how people rave about it so this year I decided to try it for myself. Lush is a handmade cosmetics company. The first Lush store was opened in 1994 by husband and wife team Mark and Mo Constantin. There are more than 600 stores in 43 countries. Lush produces and sells a variety of handmade products, including face masks, soaps, bath ballistics, hand and body lotions, and hair treatments. Lush uses organic fruit and vegetables, essential oils, and safe-synthetic ingredients in all products produced. In addition to not using animal fats in their products, they are also against animal testing and perform tests solely with volunteers instead. You can smell a Lush store even before you get to it...

Calling All Snow Fairies...

Advantages: Smell, Smoothes Skin, Generally Amazing!
Disadvantages: Only Available At Christmas! x

...bought for me every year without fail, and boy do I look forward to it... Little Bit Of Background... Snow Fairy is sort of like Lush?s signature product (now signature scent, more about that later) at Christmas, it appears every year without fail and if Lush ever discontinue it they would have many angry customers to deal with. Snow Fairy is known for its pinkness, sweetness and girliness and me and my friends have to stock up with many of the large bottles to enable it to last all year round. I am literally on my last little drop of it now, and it is treasured, so I need to head off to my local Lush to get some more! Snow Fairy has been around for years, and I predict it will be around for many more... It was invented by Mark Constantine and Mo?s (the founder?s of Lush) daughter, Claire Constantine, when she was fifteen. She made it...

Review of The Snow Queen (DVD)

A nice tale of snow and dogs!

Advantages: Fun family Disney film
Disadvantages: Nothing special

...Snow Dogs is one of those cheesy Disney family movies that you can't help liking. It was released in 2002 and stars Cuba Gooding Jr, who had recently broken into the main casting scene on the big screen. The film is essentially a poignant comedy which features some clever special effects work and that traditional addition of classic Disney family movies: animals! Dr Ted Brooks is a successful dentist who hates dogs. When he finds out he has inherited some property including a team of sled dogs, he dons his winter wear and heads to collect his new property and tries his best to fit into his new surroundings. He soon finds this hard as everyone judges him, and he must adapt to earn the respect of his new neighbours, some new enemies, and hardest of all: the dogs! Cuba Gooding Jr gives a very cheesy performance as the black dentist...

Let It Snow, Let It Snow, Let It Snow!

Advantages: aroma, brand, price, attractive
Disadvantages: /

...When I was younger I used to be terrified of candles. I have a phobia of fire *shudders* and I am incredibly paranoid when it comes to making sure sockets are switched off. I cannot use the cooker and I only recently have been able to watch television at night now. Though oddly I can now light candles, despite everything else. And when I saw an advert for the new Christmas collection of candles from Glade, I was instantly attracted to them. So off I rushed out to the shops to see what I could find, and there on the shelf in Tesco among the air fresheners was a collection of Christmas candles. Straight away I knew the one I wanted! The candle I decided to go for was the Glistening Snow candle. I think the fact that it caught my attention was largely down that the packaging. The others were all reds and greens, but this one was an ice...

Review of Glade Glistening Snow candle

S-Now this is a great book!

Advantages: Sweet story, lovely pictures, basic language, good talking points throughout
Disadvantages: None

...Little Polar Bear lives all alone with no one to play with, and wishes that he had a friend to play with. The snow cloud feels sorry for him and tries to help. He snows gently to make it form an owl, but Polar Bear doesn't realise that it isn't real and hopes to play. Sadly, the next day, the owl melts away and the Polar Bear is alone once more. The snow cloud tries a few more time to snow a friend for Polar Bear but again, they melt away. Until one day... another polar bear appears but Polar Bear dares not get his hopes up... I picked this book up for the bargainous price of 30p at a book sale at Harry's nursery last week purely because it had a lovely cover and looked like a nice wintery book for me to read to Harry at bedtime. It was first published 7 years ago now so it has been around for a while, but as with most children's book...

Review of The Polar Bear and The Snow Cloud - Jane Cabrera

Resident evil 1

Advantages: Story!
Disadvantages: same theme as many before it

...Introduction Resident evil is a Science fiction horror film which was made in 2002 and was based on video games Resident evil 1 and resident evil 2. Unfortunately, I am not a huge fan of computer games and I had never heard of the games until recently. And I did not see the film when it first came out...I was too young! (Bless) However, when the third one came out, I was old enough, so after seeing it at the cinema, being impressed and having someone explain the first two parts to me I rented the first two on DVD. Story The story is about a secret research company which is located about a mile underground and is owned by a firm called the ?Umbrella Corporation? the lab researches illegal things like genetics and viruses. The lab is given the name ?the Hive?. Due to the secretive nature of the research, everyone who lives in the lab...

Review of Resident Evil (DVD)

Snow Cake... absolutely scrumptious.

Advantages: Entertaining, thought-provoking, funny, brilliant acting.
Disadvantages: None.

...he will stay until garbage day and take the garbage out, and whilst he is there, Alex goes a step further and, with Linda?s input, begins preparations for Vivienne?s funeral. During those few days, Alex will learn a great deal about Vivienne, and Linda, as unlikely as this seems, will help Alex come to terms with his anger and grief. * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * This is one of the best movies I have seen this year! Don?t be put off by the title of the movie, or allowed to pass it by because of the incredibly boring and somewhat unattractive cover, this movie is a little gem. What my summary doesn?t tell you is that Snow Cake is incredibly thought-provoking, and although the storyline is of a serious nature, you will find yourself laughing more often than not. This is an unbelievably entertaining movie that will sway...

Evil in Residence

Advantages: Twists at the start
Disadvantages: You've seen almost all of it before elsewhere

...either. The twist at the end of Resident Evil: Apocalypse doesn't seem to have been used much which may annoy or confuse some viewers who were expecting it to be developed on. There are a few nods back to it now and then and Alice seems to have developed telekinetic abilities as well from no-where (no idea if that was ever used in any of the games having only played 1 of them). There is a lovely old school nod in homage back to the Hitchcock classic "The Birds" at one point during the movie. One scene doesn't quite ring true, where their attacked by the zombies in the container in Las Vegas. Now this is a well co-ordinated group who have clearly survived and held their own for a good long time against the zombies but here they are panicking, firing randomly and firing on automatic when ammunition is clearly in short supply. They would have...
