Urban Legends Are Just Myths... Right?

Advantages: Good premise, clever ending
Disadvantages: Too similar to other films

...While on her way home driving in torrential rain, student Michelle runs out of fuel at the worst possible moment, she just makes it to a petrol station where a strange looking man with a terrible stutter fills up her car. After previously handing over her credit card the man calls her into an office and says that the credit card company need a word with her, she reluctantly enters the office and finds a dead tone upon picking up the phone. The man locks the door and tries to stop her from leaving, Michelle manages to break free and speeds off in the car however she never makes it home. On the college campus where Michelle was a student, news of her death has yet to reach the students and teachers there.

Urban Decay Eyeshadows

Advantages: The most fantastic range of colours something for everyone
Disadvantages: Does have a tendency to crease and wear off easily

...When I go out I like my eyes to get all the attention, being my best feature they look their best when played up with a really brightly coloured eyeshadow. I usually go for cheaper make up to be honest but have been hankering after some of the Urban Decay Eyeshadow for quite a while after I was admiring a friends eyeshadow and she told me it was Urban Decay and also after I spotted what gorgeous colours they do in their range. At approximately £10.50 for a 1.5g tablet though I had felt they were quite expensive and couldn't really justify spending that amount of cash on them. However at Christmas I got a large amount of Boots vouchers as a present and decided I would splash out on a couple of these eyeshadows - I opted for Kiddie Pool an Ocean Blue colour with iridescent glitter and YDK a mocha colour with gold glitter. It took me...

American Urban Chic

Advantages: new trends, great range, friendly atmosphere
Disadvantages: some pricey items

...I am definitely someone who loves to shop and am always looking for new places to buy my clothes. I don't like to buy from all of the typical high street shops like New Look because I like to have things no one else does. I remember a while back when looking in some fashion magazines them mentioning the shop Urban Outfitters but I noticed it was only a London shop so it wasn't really something I was interested in. I then had a look on their US website and loved the looks of their clothes. So many unusual but nice things so I had a look on the store locator. I was shocked to find that Glasgow had a shop, so I got in my car and went for a drive, it took 40 minutes to get there. I was walking up Buchanan Street then in light blue lighting were the words Urban Outfitters. I will base this review on the Glasgow and Manchester branches...

The Mighty Mars Bar

Advantages: Classic chocolate bar
Disadvantages: They changed the nougat filling

...This is perhaps the most classic chocolate bar from my childhood. It has long been my favourite as a kid and I sort of have to say it still is so as not to feel as if I have disowned it (sorry Mars Bar but I have found other favourites - I still love you though!). 'A Mars a day helps you work rest and play' - this was the little catchphrase that was associated with Mars Bar. Funny really; it's like saying a chocolate bar a day is good for you. The slogan has now changed to 'Pleasure you can't measure' which definitely seems more appropriate. A standard Mars bar comes at 58g, about 11cm long and 1.8cm high. You'll pay about 32p for this bar in supermarkets which is well below the norm of 50p. They used to be more expensive but in recent years, the classic nougat and caramel filling has obviously lost its appeal as new and more...

I love Urban Decay

Advantages: fab colours
Disadvantages: price

...****Urban Decay Eyeshadow Ammo Shadow Box **** Since i liked the first urban decay kit i got so much i decided to buy this one as the deluxe shadow box was still out of stock at the time. Urban Decay **Packaging** I really like the box that these shadows come in. It is black with purple velvet bits and is very nicely decorated. On the one side you have a purple gun and the other has loads of different shapes coming from it-butterflies,flowers ...I like how this closes with a magnet so i don't think that the product will spill out. **The colours** Urban Decay say that the colours in this are their 10 top selling colours. These are set out in 2 rows and it is done so that the two colours are ones that go with each other. The colours in this are: Smog-This is like a deep coppery bronze colour . I think it is very metallically and has...

Where's The Wine?

Advantages: Quite Tasty
Disadvantages: Covered In Sugar

...I got home a couple of nights ago, turned on my PC and settled down to eat a packet (or at least part of a packet) of Fruit Pastilles only to discover in horror, that in my hurry to pick up the local newspaper and something to chew on, on the way home from work, I'd made a bit of a boob and must have picked up a packet of Wine Pastilles in error. The look on my face must have been comical, my other half said I looked like a little spoilt child with my bottom lip stuck out, and eyes bulging like they were about to burst. I must admit I hadn't actually had Wine Pastilles before so after the initial disappointment had worn off I decided to give them a try. The Background Wine Pastilles were originally made by a company called Maynard's who are the same people that make the Fruit Pastilles and Wine Gums. Maynard have been making...

Urban Decayed.

Advantages: glossy, not tested on animals
Disadvantages: chips very easily

...I have a bottle of Urban Decay nail varnish in Black. I needed some black nail varnish, and I decided to go for Urban Decay because I'd heard good things about some of their other products. Urban Decay was launched in January 1996, rebelling against a cosmetics World filled with pink. They launched their first campaign under the slogan "does pink make you puke?" It is a popular brand, known for its alternative colours and trends. Urban Decay are one of those brands that spend time thinking about the desig of their products and packaging. The nail varnish comes in a thick glass pot, which contains 10ml of varnish, I'm not sure exactly but it looks as if it contains about the same as other brands' nail varnishes. Like I said, the glass seems very thick and doesn't seem like it would break easily at all so that's reassuring. You can...

Fine Virgin Wines

Advantages: Great value boutique wines
Disadvantages: The on-line wine auctions are addictive!

...I have been buying from Virgin Wines for about three years and I have been consistently impressed with the quality and value for money of their wines. They have got a very good range of wines from all around the world, which vary in price from as little as £4 right up to £85 for a bottle of Dom Perignon 2000. I belong to their Wine Bank, which is effectively a loyalty programme. You pay £20 each month into the Wine Bank and every three months Virgin Wines will add another £20 in interest, so when you come to buy your wine you effectively get 25% off. You can pay more into your Wine Bank if you want to and you will be rewarded with a reciprocal amount of interest (i.e. £30 a month would attract £30 interest and so on). Because most of the wines they stock are generally small production 'boutique' wines, you cannot buy them anywhere...

A fabulous and unique turquoise from Urban Decay

Advantages: Fantastic teal / turquoise colour; good staying power; buildable coverage
Disadvantages: None

...Urban Decay is one of the more funky and fun ranges in my makeup box, full of glitter and sparkle, they're not your everyday makeup items, but perfect for when you want something a bit more glam and sparkly for a night out. These gorgeous little pots of colour were created to satisfy those people who wanted a wider range of alternative colours in their make-up range. Nowadays these colours probably don?t seem quite as wild and wacky as they did when they were launched- with a huge celebrity following including Gwen Stefani, Kylie Minogue and Madonna- but they are still guaranteed to turn heads! Shattered is a fabulous glittery turquoise blue with an irridescent green shimmer and a slight gold shimmery undertone. It's highly pigmented so a little goes a very long way, it applies nicely and the colour is easily buildable to achieve...

Review of Urban Decay Shattered Eye Shadow

Urban Decay - unrivalled for eye shadows!

Advantages: Long lasting, intense colours, beautiful packaging, everything!
Disadvantages: Expensive

...I always used to be the girl that would buy the cheapest make-up I could find. I don't tend to wear much make-up, but I've always loved eye shadows. I kept buying my cheap eye shadows, which would look great when I'd just applied them, but by the end of a night out it would all disappear and you could barely tell I'd put any on in the first place! One day, I was reading an interview with Davey Havok, the singer of AFI (my favourite band), and a question asked about how he got his make-up to last while getting all sweaty on stage. I knew he wore Urban Decay make-up, so thought that if it lasted sweaty rock stars, it should last me for a while! Urban Decay is a company which makes cosmetics in alternative colours, and does not test on animals (some products are vegan too). Their product philosophy is that as well as choosing...
