It... They literally are.
Cortisol, the stress hormone is delaying the restoration of your cells and their replacement. It shortens the telomeres which encode your genetic makeup.
It disrupts the removal of amyloid plaques (the things which create alzheimers, and our best bet is memory loss and the deceleration of minds in humans is caused by a combination of cortisol and sugars).
It prevents the proper resolution of stress by denying you access to essential neurotransmitters (which is why everybody is addicted to stimulants).
That fucked up brainshape results in a collapse of linguistic reasoning and thus executive functioning as a defensive mechanism (which is the origin of ADHD).
This can be passed down generationally as gene activation biases which influence your neurotopology and the shape of your brain, since evolution is assuming you're trapped in a cave but still reproducing and wants you to find a way out of the cave. This is why genetic deviations and birth defects (evolution's attempts) are significantly more frequent in places of stress -- with even transness being more common in places of high stress.
Try to imagine someone who needs to tend to a wound, but if they do they might be eaten by an animal while doing it, so they wait, with a knife in hand, ready to throw their grasp into the beast's ribs and have the knife find its middle.
That's cortisol. You're the one trembling with the knife.
I might be about to tell you something you didn't want to know, or something you already knew but did not want proof of.
You can stop reading now if you want to and I won't begrudge you.

This catastrophic gradual resudial destruction of the body is not only triggered by work, but its also alleviated by relative economic position, meaning if you emotionally feel like you have more security or more stuff than somebody else, your body makes less of it.
They want you to take up those economic objects to saturate your income but also to sate your sense of socioeconomic position. That's the real bargain of white collar work.
What's worse is it induces a kind of learned helplessness, where in the mind a human knows something is wrong but they don't do anything about it.
Humans don't try to change anything.
In fact, it literally shortens your lifespan by up to 30%.
It is literally shredding your organs.
Your body is trying desperately to tell you this.
What's worse is if someone has cortisol from the socioeconomic position but not the workload, the balance of cortisol to status is such that it induces extreme paranoia.
And those over you?
Much as locusts aren't grasshoppers, extreme wealth literally transforms brain topologies, producing ad-hoc sociopaths.

To the people above you, you are a toy soldier.
You are being asked to march into fire as tinder because to them.
It is your purpose to be firewood and to burn and if you don't accept this gleefully, you are ungreatful for being made into a toy soldier from wood to begin with.
...depite the fact they didn't shape or paint or build you. They act like they do, because that's the entire grift.
We live in the 15th century, they live in the 21st century.
The empire never ended.
Cry often and cry lots. Seek out adrenaline, which forces cortisol to distribute properly in your body and kickstarts resuming the healing process. You are biologically trapped in the waiting state for some great predator.
Work out. Exhaust your body. Climb. Lift. Run. Anything.
You need to feel acute (from the external, not your own body upon itself) pain and adrenal fear (excitement) or cortisol cannot work as intended.
This is why so many people in high pressure jobs are into BDSM, or are thrill-seekers via white collar crime. This is why so many people lead a double life as stress relief.
Above all though, you need to cry. You need to process the bad emotion. Not now and not in a catastrophic way, but in a (ugh) "productive way", like experiencing tragedy and thus catharsis through stories or by acknowledging things you had buried deep inside yourself and desperately tried to forget.
Not all at once, and only a little, but you must do this at least a little, or your levels don't achieve a setpoint declared by your endorphins and you will develop a tolerance for cortisol and your body will make more much as an addict does.
Biologically, everybody over 25 going through all this "has an addiction to a hard drug" because of their cortisol levels, and its one of the reasons why psychological research has such problems with replication because different places distribute it (and thus damage the body) in different ways.
If you are able to see a doctor, that feeling in your guts is your body screeching, begging you to run. Please please see a doctor and get a once-over. Think of it as a tune-up for a car or a general wellness assessment. If you're over 35, you'll probably catch something while its very minor like bone spurs, or nervous myalgia that's treatable at this point, the winging of your scapulas in your back, or some sort of imbalance of essential nutrients (my guess is going to be magnesium and vitamin D) -- all of which are incredibly painful if left untreated and managing and filtering that pain will eat into your cognitive capacity (since pain management costs your cognition, since you have finite brain volume and the brain can't use the same areas to do both high quality filtering and reasoning at the same time without one disrupting the other).
Read a book called "The body keeps the score" if you want to know more. It will help you solve your problems.

Someone at an old job asked why I wanted to write up the meeting minutes for our team and I said 'i wanna control the narrative' and they were like 'what' and I pointed out that no one was gonna remember what we said in six months and so my interpretation of the meeting would dictate the assumed reality of what happened
"none of you ever send corrections when I offer the draft so y'all have consented to my version"
"we don't read that shit"
"you must trust me implicitly to create our shared reality that's so sweet"

ROVECTIN is a Korean brand that offers a complete range of skincare to transform and restore skin. Many of which really is aimed toward sensitive skin. Their Aqua Soothing UV Protector is designed to provide highly effective protection against UVA and UVB rays which can cause premature aging. Key ingredients include coconut oil (hydrating, protects skin, smoothing, minimizes fine lines and wrinkles, calms redness, absorbs easily, has some UV ray blocking ability), titanium dioxide (physical sunscreen; protects the skin from UVA/UVB radiation, gentle, good for sensitive and acne-prone skin), zinc oxide (gives skin a protective coating from irritation, promotes healing, astringent, antiseptic), sunflower seed oil unsaponifiables (high in vitamin E, emollient, prevents damage to the skin from UV light, anti-aging, hydrating) and cranberry seed oil (softening, soothing, minimizes fine lines and wrinkles, protects against environmental factors, nourishing, has natural sun blocking properties). This product retails for between $23-29 USD, you can get it here for $29 + shipping. You can use code DANNIEL15 to save some money. :)
Ingredients
Water, Zinc Oxide, Cyclohexasiloxane, Butylene Glycol, Titanium Dioxide, Ethylhexyl Palmitate, Cocos Nucifera (Coconut) Oil, Diphenylsiloxy Phenyl Trimethicone, Niacinamide, 1,2-Hexanediol, Caprylyl Methicone, C12-15 Alkyl Benzoate, Polyglyceryl-3 Polydimethylsiloxyethyl Dimethicone, Adenosine, Hedera Helix (Ivy) Leaf/Stem Extract, Malus Domestica (Apple) Fruit Extract, Centella Asiatica Extract, Vanilla Planifolia (Flat-leaved Vanilla) Fruit Extract, Jasminum Officinale (Jasmine) Flower Water, Moringa Oleifera Seed Extract, Sodium Chloride, Aluminum Hydroxide, Polymethylsilsesquioxane, Dimethicone/Phenyl Vinyl Dimethicone Crosspolymer, Polyhydroxystearic Acid, Prunus Amygdalus Amara (Bitter Almond) Kernel Oil, Helianthus Annuus (Sunflower) Seed Oil, Saccharide Isomerate, Trehalose, Glycerin, Helianthus Annuus (Sunflower) Seed Oil Unsaponifiables, Solanum Lycopersicum (Tomato) Seed Oil, Caprylic/Capric Triglyceride, Vaccinium Macrocarpon (Cranberry) Seed Oil, Tocopherol, Disodium EDTA, Stearic Acid, Triethoxycaprylylsilane, Coco-Caprylate/Caprate, Polyglyceryl-6 Polyricinoleate
To quickly note, I received this for free from Wishtrend for my honest review.
The UV protector comes in a plastic squeeze bottle like normal and contains 50 ml (1.69 oz) and is fragrance-free.
The product is very easy to dispense and it's very convenient.
The sunblock is not watery or anything, but it's pretty lightweight.
The sunblock does blend out a fair amount but is still fairly streaky. This, while somewhat frustrating, is a sign of an effective sunblock as it does leave somewhat of a layer and doesn't just absorb in like a moisturizer.
It's not the most moisturizing, but it does have some chalkiness to it.
The layer is a little bit visible and so I do think this will flash back if you're using flash photography.
Recommended use is to dispense an adequate amount of the SPF on areas such as the face, neck, arms, and hand during your last step of skincare. Apply as often as necessary in order to maintain sun protection. Suitable for daily use and meant for dry to normal skin. This sunblock is cruelty-free, pH balanced, and free of artificial coloring, fragrances, and ethanol. It’s also vegan-friendly. While designed for dry to normal skin, this one may be ideal for oily to combination skin. This is a physical sunscreen that's hypoallergenic and is a non-chemical filter. After using, while I don't typically notice physical sunscreens very often if they are pretty moisturizing, this formula is a little drier and does take some time to absorb into the skin and look less dry. After it does absorb, my skin looked very radiant and bright, but it's very apparent I'm wearing sunblock after application. It has a typical sunscreen scent and a chalkiness to it. So it does have some streaking that does take some time to blend in. The ingredients are quite nice with the exception of one irritant. I didn't notice any irritation on my skin as a result of using this, however, it does ball up on the skin, so in my opinion, this may not be the best to wear under makeup as it may cause makeup to ball up. I do think this would be best for lighter skin as it's less obvious and has less of a cast on it. I do find it long-wearing and very effective but I'd recommend this to people with oily and combination skin as I really don't think it's the best fit for dry skin.
What I like: once it really melts into the skin, it really does leave the skin looking hydrated and it really lasts a long time and is easy to reapply. What I don't like: it's harder to blend in and is kind of chalky and streaky. It really isn't the best for my skin type personally but I can see this working on oily skin. It has a pretty obvious cast on it and I think this would be hard to hide if you have darker skin. It also balls up and so it may not be the best base for makeup.
Pros:
Hydrating
Adds radiance
After melting in, the complexion looks great
Lovely ingredients
Long-wearing
Fragrance-free
Sensitive skin friendly
Vegan
Cons:
Leaves a cast
Balls up on the skin
Isn't really ideal for dry skin
Would I buy this?
Probably not
Rating: 7/10

Decoding Dry Skin and Winter's Effects: Cracking the Code
In the winter months, the skin experiences intensified dryness due to a decrease in humidity and exposure to cold air, resulting in significant moisture loss. Various factors like hot showers, harsh winds, and indoor heating exacerbate this issue. Adjusting your skincare routine becomes vital, but certain mistakes can worsen dryness.
Seelove Cold weather impedes the skin's ability to retain moisture, leading to dryness, redness, and premature aging. Inadequate moisturizers fall short in providing necessary nourishment, necessitating the use of rich, oil-infused variants such as Seelove’s Daily love hydration cream.
Poorly timed moisturization routines can exacerbate dryness. Post-shower, the skin rapidly loses moisture, highlighting the need for immediate application of a rich moisturizer. Consistently moisturizing before bedtime helps maintain hydration levels and supports overnight skin repair.
Cleansers containing high-drying agents intensify dryness; switching to moisture-rich, gentle cleansers like Seelove's cleanser for dry skin preserves skin moisture. Using a suitable cleanser twice daily ensures a refreshed and hydrated complexion. Opting for a pH-balanced cleanser aids in maintaining the skin’s natural barrier.
Hot showers strip away natural oils, leading to irritation and flakiness. Avoiding them can minimize dryness and prevent skin damage.
Night creams aid in skin rejuvenation; products like Seelove Calm and Repair Night Cream effectively counter dryness and signs of aging.
Unaddressed dryness may result in severe conditions like eczema. Adequate hydration through increased water intake and consumption of seasonal fruits helps combat dryness, ensuring overall skin health.
In essence, combating winter dryness involves timely and appropriate moisturization, a gentle cleanser regimen, avoiding hot showers, and maintaining consistent hydration.
How Do We Shortlist The Best Cleanser In India?
Selecting the right cleanser demands a thorough evaluation of factors like skin type compatibility, ingredients, effectiveness, user reviews, price, and brand reputation. Balancing these aspects ensures finding the perfect match for your skin in India.
Skin Type Compatibility: Prioritize cleansers designed for your specific skin type — dry, oily, combination, or sensitive.
Ingredients and Formulation: Opt for gentle, non-comedogenic ingredients like glycerin, hyaluronic acid, or aloe vera, while avoiding harsh substances such as sulfates or alcohol.
Effectiveness: Assess the cleanser’s ability to remove impurities without over-drying or leaving residues. Look for pH-balanced formulations to maintain your skin’s natural barrier.
Reviews and Recommendations: Consider user feedback from trustworthy sources, especially from individuals with similar skin types.
Price and Value: Evaluate the cost relative to size, quality, and effectiveness. Higher prices may indicate premium ingredients.
Brand Reputation: Trust reputable skincare brands known for quality and ethical practices.
Allergens and Sensitivities: Check the ingredient list for potential allergens, especially if you have known allergies.
Availability: Ensure the product is accessible in India through reputable retailers or online platforms.
Additional Features: Assess if any added benefits align with your skincare goals, such as exfoliation or anti-aging properties.
Trial and Testing: Whenever possible, try sample sizes to test compatibility before committing to a full-sized product. These considerations help narrow down options and find the ideal cleanser for your skin’s needs in India.

Budget-Friendly Baby Dresses for Every Occasion
When it comes to dressing up your little one, finding the cheapest baby dress that don't compromise on style and quality can be a challenge. However, with the right knowledge and tips, you can discover a wide range of adorable and affordable baby dresses suitable for every occasion.
Factors to Consider When Choosing Budget-Friendly Baby Dresses
1. Quality of Fabric
Opt for dresses made from high-quality, durable fabrics that are soft and gentle on your baby's delicate skin. Look for breathable materials like cotton or organic blends that offer comfort throughout the day.
2. Design and Style
Choose dresses with appealing designs and styles that suit your baby's personality and the occasion. Consider elements like patterns, prints, colors, and embellishments to find dresses that stand out without breaking the bank.
3. Comfort and Fit
Prioritize comfort and proper fit when selecting baby dresses. Ensure the dresses allow freedom of movement and have features like stretchable waistbands, adjustable straps, or easy-to-use buttons or snaps for hassle-free dressing.
4. Versatility
Opt for dresses that can be easily dressed up or down for various occasions. Versatile dresses can be paired with different accessories or layered with jackets or cardigans to create multiple looks.
If you have a formal event or family gathering, budget-friendly formal dresses are also available. These dresses often feature more intricate details, such as tulle skirts, embroidered patterns, or satin finishes. Don't hesitate to explore different styles, such as A-line, empire waist, or princess cut, to find the perfect dress for your baby.
Tips for Finding Budget-Friendly Baby Dresses
Finding affordable baby dresses without compromising on quality can be a daunting task. However, with these tips, you can make the process easier and more fruitful:
1. Shop Online
Online shopping like at Ginie Kids opens up a world of options for the cheapest baby dress. Many online retailers offer competitive prices, discounts, and a wide range of styles to choose from. Take advantage of customer reviews and sizing guides to ensure you make the right choice.
2. Take Advantage of Sales and Discounts
Keep an eye out for sales, seasonal promotions, and discount codes. Many stores offer discounted prices on baby clothing, including dresses, during specific times of the year. Sign up for newsletters or follow social media accounts of your favorite baby clothing brands to stay informed about upcoming sales.
3. Consider Second-Hand Options
Second-hand baby dresses are an excellent way to save money while still finding beautiful outfits. Look for consignment stores, online marketplaces, or community groups where parents sell gently used baby clothing. Make sure to inspect the items for any signs of wear or damage before making a purchase.
4. Opt for Mix-and-Match Pieces
Instead of buying complete outfits, consider purchasing separate pieces that can be mixed and matched. This gives you more versatility and allows you to create different looks with fewer items. For example, invest in a few tops and bottoms that can be paired interchangeably to create various outfits.
5. Look for Multi-Purpose Dresses
Choose dresses that can be worn for different occasions or easily transformed with accessories. A simple dress can be dressed up with a statement bow, a cardigan, or a pair of cute shoes. This way, you get more mileage out of a single dress, making it a cost-effective choice.

Like A Fairytale
A/N: Kensi and Deeks enjoy some alone time on Christmas. Some adult content.
Merry Christmas!
***
Kensi sighed as Deeks pulled his truck in front of a small cabin, decked out with small twinkle lights and a few decorations. With a dusting of fresh snow on the roof, it looked very close to a real gingerbread house. It wasn’t as close to the resort and attractions since it was a privately owned house, but it meant they could stay for a week for the same price as renting a cabin directly.
“I forgot how beautiful it is here,” she said, turning in time to see Deeks’ smile. Over the last few years, they hadn’t made it up to Mammoth at all. It was especially welcome after all the stress and disappointment of last year.
“It is pretty perfect,” Deeks agreed. “Come on, let’s go in. There’s a hot tub calling my name.”
He took her hand as they walked along the salted path to the front door, which bore a holly and fir tree wreath. Deeks punched in the the security code, toting their bags in as they walked into a small entryway.
While Deeks went to grab another load from the truck, she explored the rest of the house. In the den, she found a small tree decorated with silver and blue icicle ornaments and garland and a collection of blankets, books, and games in baskets next to a fireplace.
Kensi was sure they’d make good use of the fire, but didn’t know if they’d get around to enjoying the games or books. It was a nice gesture though.
Grabbing the small cooler they’d brought with, Kensi moved on to the kitchen. Like most of the rooms, it was small, but nicely furnished. On the table, there was a gift basket filled with fruit, cheese, and chocolate, along with a note that read,
Merry Christmas Kensi and Marty,
We provided a complimentary fruit basket, champagne, and dinner to get your vacation off to a good start.
We hope you enjoy your stay and the holidays.
The Wegmans
There appeared to be an entire chicken dinner, with rolls and dessert included in the fridge and a few meals worth of sandwich fixings. Grabbing a salted chocolate caramel from the basket, Kensi wandered back out to the front of the house.
Deeks was bent in front of the fireplace, his hair flopping into his as he concentrated on lighting a pile of kindling. She was overwhelmed by a rush of affection for him and spent a minutes just watching him work. It had been so long since she’d taken the time to appreciate the way he moved, the gentle strength of his hands.
When he had a nice little fire going, Kensi crept up behind him and wrapped her arms around his waist as he rose.
“Hey.” He pulled her into his side, kissing her temple with a sigh.
“Hi. The owners left us dinner and other treats,” she told him.
“Oh, yeah, I might have mentioned that we haven’t been on a real vacation in a few years when I made the reservations,” Deeks said with a shrug. “And several reviewers mentioned that the Wegmans always go above and beyond to make sure their renters have a pleasant experience.”
“You really did think of everything, didn’t you?”
“I tried. Is it too much?”
Kensi was vaguely astounded that he’d think she might have a problem with him creating an extremely romantic getaway. Rising up in her toes, she kissed him softly, lingering to show her appreciation.
“It’s perfect,” she said, threading her fingers through his hair. “Thank you, Baby.” Deeks sighed, leaning into her touch, closing his eyes briefly.
“So, you wanna break into that dinner?” he suggested, dropping his linked hands to her lower back.
“Dinner can wait,” Kensi decided, drawing his lips back to hers. She sank to the floor, drawing Deeks with her and sighed when his lips found her neck.
***
Deeks’ skin was soft beneath Kensi’s fingers as she ran them down his back and across his stomach. He shivered, making a pleasant sound, but didn’t move from his spot a few inches from the fire. Kensi was nicely warm tucked into his side.
“So much for the hot tub,” he said, flashing her half a smile. The rest of his face was smashed into the floor rug.
“Are you complaining?” Kensi asked, pretty sure of his answer. As far as she was concerned, they’d just spent a very enjoyable hour together.
“No, definitely not,” Deeks assured her quickly. “I’m just going to have some rug burn in uncomfortable places.” He lifted his head and let his gaze run over her. “But totally worth it,” he added, his voice dropping to a low, almost gravely tone that sent a rush of heat through her at the memory of their very recent activities.
Palming her hip, Deeks gently squeezed and rolled her onto her back, sliding over her. She welcomed the heavy weight of his body pressed against hers. He started to prop himself up on his forearms, but Kensi hooked her leg around his waist, keeping him in place.
Kensi arched into him as Deeks kissed her neck, smoothing her hands down his back. When she reached his butt, she rolled her hips and squeezed him. Deeks broke his patter of kisses with a gasp, letting out a breathy chuckle.
“Oh god,” he sighed. “At this rate, we’re going to starve.”
“Completely worth it,” Kensi decided, grinning against his mouth as she kissed him.
***
A/N: No, I don’t think a rental house would have a functioning wood-burning fireplace, but it’s a little more romantic.

The amount of people who nonchalantly decide to regularly eat foods that they are allergic/intolerant to, stresses me out.
Like hun, your "mild" allergy to that fruit you like could very easily to into an anaphylactic reaction and have you dead.
That food you're intolerant to that fucks up your stomach every time you eat it, that you still decide to eat every day, is raising your risk for digestive cancers and malnutrition issues so much.
Like, if you know this and decide to keep doing it, more power to you. You make your own decisions my friend. But please... make informed ones.

I wish more people would grapple with the idea that you can be scared of something without hating it. You can be scared of wasps without hating them. You can be scared of spiders without hating them. Just like you can be scared of drowning without hating the ocean.

My #1 post of 2022
I've known I that I'm nonbinary for a while. Started figuring that out in college, which feels like a lifetime ago. I hadn't known my entire life, but that was more of a pebble than a pothole on my road to self-discovery. I went through a moment of "am I trans enough to call myself trans?" What a funny thought, looking back on it.
Coming to terms with being transmasc though? That was an entirely different thing. My gender felt weird. It felt queer. But masculine? No. I had no connection with masculinity. I felt just as uncomfortable with masculinity as I did femininity.
Or so I told myself—and others occassionally, when I wanted to emphasize my gender's queerness, its otherness, its void-like ambiguity; when I wanted to make sure they didn't just swap out one half of the binary for the other.
Looking back, I can tell something wasn't sitting right, something was nagging at the peripheral of my self-understanding. I remember finding a lot of comfort in butchness at this time. I am so thankful for butches for that safety in exploration, and the gentle nudging into queer masculinity.
But it wasn't really until dear friend of mine, new to my nonbinary-ness, began swapping the more feminine-coded compliments and titles for distinctly masculine ones—it wasn't really until then that my transmasculinity took root to blossom in me.
And you can spare me the essay; I can read my own words. "I wanted to make sure they didn't just swap out one half of the binary for the other." Hear me when I say that I could feel it in my soul that they did not do that. I could tell—and I know I am not the only one who can—when "handsome" was said queerly.
It is not a coincidence that I only give my full set of pronouns to those who I can trust to see the queerness in "he/him." I withhold those for my own safety, though in the process, I feel like I am withholding part of myself. Because the euphoria I get when I can be nonbinary, genderqueer, transmasculine, is like no other I have felt before.

In My Veins - KamilahxMC Fanfiction (Chapter 2)
Summary: Inspired by Lovestruck’s “Havenfall is For Lovers” (Antonio). Amy is a regular, small-town girl looking for her first job in New York City. When she gets kidnapped by the powerful CEO, Kamilah Sayeed, she’ll have to discover her true goals… before it’s too late.
Genre: Romance
Rating: T
Notes: - English is not my first language, so I apologize for any mistakes - This fanfic is slightly inspired by Lovestruck’s story Havenfall Is For Lovers - Antonio, but I intend to make it more interesting and steamier too :P
- I’m sorry for taking so long to update this fic, I had been focused on For You but now it’s ending I’ll be updating it regulary. You can re-read Chapter 1 here.
- Minor changes: I’ve resized the cover and changed the rating to T. There was no reason to be classified as M.
- I hope you enjoy it, your likes and reviews are always appreciated.
Amy opened her eyes. Slowly. Hoping she'd wake up in her own bedroom. The image that started to form in her vision was another. It wasn't a nightmare, after all. She was still trapped in Kamilah Sayeed's house.
Kamilah Sayeed. The gorgeous and rich CEO who planned to kill her and drink her blood. Because she's a vampire.
Amy could do nothing but laugh. Even if she managed to find a way to contact the authorities, who would believe her?
Her stomach started to growl. Her kidnapper hadn't served any food yet since her arrival. She narrowed her eyes and clenched her fists. Two could play that game. She wouldn't just give up on her life. Not before making Kamilah's life a living hell.
"Hey," she yelled, right behind the door. "I'm starving here! Open this door!"
She threw punches and kicks at the door. She cried. She shouted insults. Nothing. From the other side, only silence.
She sat on the bed, sighing in frustration. A couple of minutes later, Kamilah furiously opened the door.
"What's your problem?" She asked. "I was in the middle of an important phonecall!"
"What is my problem?" Amy snarled. "My problem is that you locked me in this room to starve to death."
"The door was unlocked. You could've left anytime you wanted."
Amy felt her cheeks blushing. Indeed, she never actually attempted to open the door.
"But... I saw as you locked it last night."
"Of course, you were acting like an enraged animal."
Amy took a deep breath. She need to control herself. If Kamilah locked the door again, she wouldn't be able to explore the rest of the house. Where she could possibly find a phone.
"Let's go," Kamilah showed the way. "Breakfast is served."
Amy followed her to the dinning room. An enormous table with the most diverse food was served.
"I didn't know what you liked so, I ordered all the available options."
"This is so gentle of you," Amy ironized.
She took a sit around the table. Filling a plate with eggs, bacon, sausage and waffles.
“I cannot fathom how your kind survived this long.”
Kamilah was sitting in front of her, eating yogurt and some fruits. Then, she grabbed the newspaper and started reading in silence.
Amy stared in disbelief. How could she act so normally when she kidnapped a person she intended to kill?
"Funny," she provoked. "I thought your kind needed another kind of breakfast to thrive."
"Blood, you mean," Kamilah patiently closed the newspaper. "We only need a small amount daily, to keep our bloodlust under control."
"Then why have you been killing so many people lately, huh? Is it your concept of fun?"
"I haven't killed a single mortal in centuries."
Amy let out a sadistic laugh.
"Right..." She shook her head. "Then what's the deal with me?"
"You're special," Kamilah took a sip of her coffee.
"And what's make me special? Really, I'm only a small-town girl. I don't even have a job yet."
"Your blood makes you special."
“Okay, then my blood is like one of those rare expensive wines you have there in your rack,” Amy pointed to another corner of the room.
For a second, she could swear Kamilah’s lips would turn into a smile, but she hid it. Very well.
When they finished eating, Kamilah announced she was going back to her office. She had some papers to sign.
"I suppose you'll lock me in the bedroom again," Amy said.
"No, darling," Kamilah shrugged. "You're free to do whatever you want. As long as you don't leave the house, of course."
Amy's face lightened in hope. She spent the rest of the morning mapping the mansion. Inspecting every corner in search of alternatives to escape, or at least a phone. Her expectations were frustrated when she realized the only avaliable phone was in Kamilah's office.
Lying on the couch, she watched the news. Another animal attack. At least she knew Kamilah was telling the truth this time. She spent the night busy... Kidnapping her.
"Amy?" Kamilah called. "Would you come to my office, please?"
Amy gulped, was she ready to drink her blood? Nervously, she sat on the chair in front of her desk.
"So, will you finally do it?"
"No," Kamilah approached her, with a syringe in hands. "First, I need to draw a blood sample to confirm you have what I need."
"No," Amy protested. "I refused to sign your contract. You won't touch a single drip of my blood."
Kamilah sighed, as if she already expected that reaction. She grabbed something inside her drawer. Amy recognized her cellphone.
"Lily has been calling you the whole morning," Kamilah told.
"Of course, she's worried about me."
"One phonecall," Kamilah extended the phone in Amy's direction. When she was about to touch it, she retreated. "In trade for a blood sample."
Reluctantly, Amy agreed. It was her only chance. Of course Kamilah was going to monitor the call, but she could give Lily the smallest sign. She knew her best friend would be able to notice the weirdness in her voice.
Kamilah inserted the needle in her arm's vein. Her touch was soft, careful... There was no pain. Instead, a good electric sensation ran from Amy's arm, spreading to her entire body. Almost causing her pleasure.
"What the fuck, Amy?" She thought. "What the actual fuck... She's cold-blooded monster. How can you even feel like this? Of course, she compelled you. She’s trying to put you under her sadistic spell!"
"Are you alright?" Kamilah's voice brought her back to reality.
"Uhhh yes," Amy felt her cheeks burning a little bit. "Now give me my phone as you promised."
Before Kamilah handed her the cellphone, her face acquired a threatening expression.
"Don't you even dare to try anything, do you understand? You wouldn't want to put Lily's life in danger... Right?"
Amy nodded, grabbing the phone violently from her hand. Kamilah positioned herself in front of her, hearing every part of the conversation.
"Lil?" Amy felt a notch in her throat, controlling herself to not cry. "That's me."
"Jeez, Amy. I was starting to get worried."
"I'm sorry I didn't go home last night... something happened."
"What? Are you in trouble?"
Lily's words alarmed Kamilah, who made the motion of taking the phone from Amy's hand.
"No... Actually, it's something good," she lied. "I got the job."
"Really? And where are you?"
"A-At Kamilah's house. It's uhhh... A special training to... prepare me for the position."
Lily paused for a few seconds.
"Amy, there is something else going on! You're acting strange."
"Fix it," Kamilah muttered, showing the tips of her fangs.
"Me, Lil? Of course not! I'm just tired, I worked a lot last night."
Suddenly, Amy heard Lily gasping at the other side of the line.
"Oh my god," she shouted. "I can totally see what's happening! Tell me, she's some kind of Christian Grey, isn't? It explains that mysterious attitude."
"Lily, no..."
"You only act this weird when you're into someone."
Kamilah was impatient, pacing around her office with a disturbed look on her face.
"Okay, Lily. There's something between us! But it's not as you think. Anyways, I need to go now. Kamilah needs me."
"Calling her by the first name already. You go, girl! Enjoy your time with her, but don't forget to fill me in on details when you have time."
"Oh... Of course. Bye."
When she hung up, Kamilah gave her a furious gaze. She grabbed her phone and smashed it with one hand.
"Hey! That was my phone," Amy yelled. "Why did you do that? I followed your orders."
"No, you didn't," Kamilah rebuked. "You demonstrated tension in your voice, you insinuated we could be having an affair... and who the hell is Christian? Is it some kind of code?"
"Oh, you're not into modern literature."
"Not really, rare are the books from this generation that I..."
Amy handed her a piece of paper.
"Read it, it may help you to relieve your tensions."
Kamilah looked at her intrigued.
Amy spent the rest of the day lying on Kamilah's office couch, asking the most diverse questions about vampirism.
"This heavy curtains," she pointed. "Does it mean you can't walk in the sunlight?'
"Correct," Kamilah replied, eyes still focused on a pile of papers.
"If I open the curtains, will you sparkle or will you turn into ashes?"
Kamilah rolled her eyes in annoyance.
"Why don't you test?"
Amy opened the curtains. As the sunlight penetrated the room, Kamilah didn't show any reaction. After a couple of minutes though, she showed signs of pain and discomfort.
"Close it," she demanded.
Amy obeyed. At least now she knew one of Kamilah's weaknesses. She could use it as advantage in the future.
"How long can you take it?" Amy wanted to know.
"One hour and half."
"Any other aversions? Like garlic, crucifixes..."
"No, it's a myth. And before you ask, I don't sleep in a coffin."
Amy insisted on her plan. So far, Kamilah answered all her questions patiently.
"I'm going to take a shower," she announced. "I’ll need some clothes, you know."
"We can provide it," Kamilah said. "Tonight you can wear some of my clothes.”
Amy nodded, coming back to her bedroom. She wasn't successful on her mission. As long as Kamilah had control over the situation, she wouldn't get affected. Amy needed an opportunity where she'd be vulnerable, an occasion where Kamilah could not control... And it seemed like luck was on her side. Before dinner, Kamilah was on a heated argument over the phone.
"Amy, we need to talk," she spoke when they sat down to eat. "On Friday, I’ll need to attend this event and I have no other choice... I'm taking you with me."
Next Chapter: What kind of trouble Amy can cause when Kamilah takes her to a public event? Coming Soon!

Klairs Youthful Glow Sugar Mask-{Review Time} -A multi-functional sugar mask fortified with the extract from grapefruit and raspberry. Cleanses makeup and provides mild exfoliation. My Review: I really love & enjoy its sweet fruit scent.And I tried using this as an exfoliator and as a mask. I alternately use this method once a week. As to my experience using it as an exfoliator is a more way effective in improving skin texture as it buff /polish well dead skin cells.I find its a little abrasive on my first use, as I felt some sharp granules as I massage it on my face. Immediate effect on first use is softness, smoothness and radiant skin. A more good result as compared when you used it as a mask. However, I experienced some patches of dryness on some part of my face too the next day, so I always followed it with a very hydrating and moisturing serum and moisturizer after. As a mask, even it has a dense texture, it doesn't give me a hard time to apply it. But I find it a little heavy for me once it melts to a nice sticky paste.This is a more gentle way of using for me too. Skin feels soft and radiant too after washing your face. Overall I enjoy both this method of using it. After a couple of times of using it, my skin texture is really improve, even blackheads and whiteheads is vanish and my skin is always feels soft and smooth and glowy.

Review of I’m from’s Ginseng Eye Cream
I’m from is a Korean brand that has a strong focus on transparency and listing all of the ingredients they use in their products. Their Ginseng Eye Cream is designed to firm and tighten the skin, leaving it healthy and moisturized. Key ingredients include: 3.65% ginseng root extract (anti-aging, skin firming, improves skin health, brightening, nourishing), shea butter (moisturizing, nourishing, anti-inflammatory, anti-aging), jojoba seed oil (moisturizing, soothing, anti-aging), allantoin (softening, soothing, protecting, stimulates new cell growth), adenosine (anti-aging, promotes collagen and elastin production, anti-wrinkle), squalane (balances oil production, maintains clear and healthy skin, anti-aging, anti-inflammatory, moisturizing, reduces redness and swelling, softening, smoothing) and hydrolyzed hyaluronic acid (designed to easier penetrate the skin, stimulates collagen synthesis, moisturizing). This cream retails for between $24-32 USD, you can get it here for $24 + shipping. Use code DANNIEL15 to save 15 percent.
Ingredients
Water, Butylene Glycol, Caprylic/Capric Triglyceride, Glycerin, Panax Ginseng Root Extract (3.65%), Cetearyl Olivate, Simmondsia Chinensis (Jojoba) Seed Oil, Butyrospermum Parkii (Shea) Butter, Cetearyl Alcohol, Sorbitan Olivate, Beeswax, Methylpropanediol, Hydroxyethyl Acrylate/Sodium Acryloyldimethyl Taurate Copolymer, Isododecane, Betaine, Xanthan Gum, Usnea Barbata (Lichen) Extract, Sodium Hyaluronate, Angelica Gigas Root Extract, 1,2-Hexanediol, Dimethicone, Dimethicone/Vinyl Dimethicone Crosspolymer, Glyceryl Caprylate, Soluble Collagen, Dipotassium Glycyrrhizate, Allantoin, Adenosine, Disodium EDTA, Pulsatilla Koreana Extract, Zanthoxylum Piperitum (Japanese Pepper) Fruit Extract, Ethylhexylglycerin, Sorbitan Isostearate, Squalane, Sodium Acetylated Hyaluronate, Hydrolyzed Hyaluronic Acid, Boswellia Serrata Resin Extract
To quickly note, I received this for free from Wishtrend for my honest review.
The cream comes in a glass pot of 30 grams (1.05 oz) and doesn't have a discernible scent.
Not a whole lot is needed, I've barely made a dent after a few months.
It's a pretty thick and emollient cream.
It doesn't feel heavy, however.
It does a great job of smoothing the texture of the skin and it's hydrating, leaving a glow.
Recommended use as an eye cream: apply toner and smooth out skin texture. Take an appropriate amount and apply lightly around the eyes and gently tap until it is fully absorbed. If using it as a facial moisturizer, take an appropriate amount during the cream stage of your skincare and apply it evenly over the entire face and let it absorb. The cream is cruelty-free, pH balanced, and free of artificial coloring. After using, this cream does contain one irritant which is supposed to be numbing, though I've never noticed it myself, but keep that in mind if you're very sensitive around eyes like me. I didn't personally opt to use it for my whole face even though it would be a good option as it's twice the size of most eye creams. The cream is a rich, thick consistency but it's also not heavy on the skin. It spreads onto the skin very smoothly and I didn't notice any pilling or up, even under makeup. It soaks in well and is very nourishing. I think this cream is actually suitable for any skin type as it's very moisturizing and fairly gentle even though it's not technically fragrance-free. But there is no noticeable scent or anything that could cause the eyes to tingle, I also had no issue using it on my eyelids. I'd definitely recommend this to anyone, especially people looking for a very rich eye cream.
What I like: this cream is really gentle, moisturizing, and nourishing. It's safe on the eyelids and I didn't notice any kind of irritation. The ingredients are also quite nice. The texture of the cream is very nice and emollient and it doesn't pill or bunch up. What I don't like: I wish it was fragrance-free and there is an irritant that could potentially feel numbing or tingly on the skin.
Pros:
Moisturizing
Nourishing
Hydrating
Rich
Emollient
Little goes a long way
Gentle
Can be used on the eyelids
Cons:
Not fragrance-free
Would I buy this?
Yes
Rating: 9.5/10

Cutie Reviews: Tokyo Treat August 18
Before I begin, I wanted to mention that this month we had a code for so much off of a 3, 6, or 12 month subscription. There was also an item we were supposed to get but due to a last-second issue, it was swapped out for something else. I don’t remember the exact reason but it’s not important anymore.
Also, I forgot to take a picture of the Lucky Treat and Contest prizes. Lucky Treat included a lot of gudetama and Pokemon items, and some cute yellow things like pudding flavored cookies and candy. The Contest was to design your own kit-kat flavor and package, and the winner would receive 2 Cinnamoroll items, while 5 runner-ups got a Pompompurrin item.
The Japan articles in the booklet focuses on Japanese fruits and how popular they are in Japan- asking someone of their favorite fruit is a popular conversation starter, isn’t that cute~?
I’ll play along. My most favorite fruit is a strawberry (ironically I just got some big, yummy looking ones today~), but I also like grapes, apples, pears, pineapple, mango, raspberries, plums... pretty much anything except for bananas, and tomato if you count that as a fruit.
There’s also a question asking “which fruit would you assign/associate to each month?“ so I came up with:
Summer - Watermelon, Pineapple.
Fall - Apples
Winter - Melon (It’s light color and taste reminds me of winter)
Spring - Pears, cherry, strawberry, anything refreshing and light.
I had fun answering those, I kind of wish they included them more often. But for now, let’s get on with the actual review!
Coca-Cola Clear & Melon Jelly Drink DIY
As usual, the DIY will be covered in a separate post. Our main feature for this pic is the big, clear empty-looking coke next to it. As of this box, Coca-Cola Clear is Japan’s newest Coke variation, which features a zero calorie spin with lemon flavoring to create a light, refreshing taste~
I know I’m a broken record, but for anybody new around here; I ♥ Coca-Cola! So I always get excited when it shows up in the boxes, or even getting cola-flavored candy. I love it love it love it~
Rating: ♥ ♥
Unfortunately, this wasn’t exactly what I had in mind...
When I smell it, I get a coke x sprite sort of mix. But when I taste it, I don’t really get the lemon at all. Or maybe I do- but to me it actually tastes like apple pie. More specifically, the taste of the syrup you get from combining apple and cinnamon when preparing to bake them.
It’s not a bad taste in any means, but I had higher expectations. I’m not a big fan of sprite or anything, but I kinda thought it might have been like lemon pepsi; a drink I was obsessed with years ago when it came out (its since been discontinued sadly). You don’t even really taste coke honestly.
Melon Bread Cookies Party Park
A fun, large pack of melon pan inspired cookies. There is an equal amount of crunchy orange-flavored cookies, and soft, sweet melon cookies with cream inside. This product is by Kabaya, The orange cookies are 41.1 calories, and melon is 43.1 calories.
Rating: ♥ ♥
They’re alright. The orange one actually doesn’t have any sort of orange flavoring to me at all, it’s not even sweet. The crunch is light, and honestly I think it’d be better with a sweet drink, or maybe some cream. The melon one is soft and chewy, and it’s much sweeter than the other one; it actually tastes like melon. The cream inside keeps it from being too dry in taste.
Chip Star Lemon Chips &
Next up are two Lemon themed items, the first are chips by popular snack brand Chip Star. The entire container is 263 calories, which kind of bothers me a little considering how small the count is; but it’s okay if you don’t eat them all at once, or share some of them.
This product uses real Setuchi lemons to create a tangy, savory flavor.
Rating: ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥
They’re so yummy~♥ It’s basically a lemon salt flavored chip, but the lemon flavor is very light and the tanginess is gentle. On scent, you get a really strong sour vinegar smell, but they don’t taste like that.
Our next item is this box of Choco-Lemon dipped mini-pocky! This was the item we got instead of the Kinoko no Yama Chocolate Banana; which because I dislike artificial banana flavors is fine by me.
Each package or the entire box is 103 calories. I can’t tell which it is from what’s written on the back... but I’m kinda hoping it’s the entire box.
Rating: ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥
These are very delicious, but usually this type of pocky is~ It reminds me of a non-sour version of lemon meringue ♥ I can’t see eating them too often though. The sweetness starts to get a little one-note.
Chocolate Mint Caramel Corn & Shimi Corn Share Pack
Following the crunchy trend, here we have two more sweet snacks! First up I’ll cover the Shimi Corn because we get it a lot in these boxes and I’ve reviewed it a handful of times. If I remembered where, I’d just link that but because I don’t....
Shimi Choco Corn is an adorable, star-shaped airy puff snack entirely infused in a rich, chocolate flavor. Each pack is 73 calories, and you get like 6-8 per mini-pack.
Rating: ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥
They taste really good, and there is a very faint bitterness to them, but not enough to trigger those anti-bitter gag reflexes. As I said, they are very soft-crispy, in a sort of creamy melt-in-your mouth way. As often as they show up, I don’t get tired of them ;3
Our next item is another famous brand that’s been showing up in boxes, Caramel Corn. Caramel Corn is another light puffed snack usually featuring a sweet, rich caramel glaze. But it comes in many varieties- some even include nuts in them! This specific flavor is chocolate-mint, a recent addition to this brand. Apparently during summer, Japan loves to produce mint-flavors because of the cooling burst they can give.
Rating: ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥
I ♥ chocolate mint so I always have very high hopes they’ll be good, and after last time- I wasn’t sure what to expect. I was very happy realizing these taste like what I expected the July choco-mint item to taste like. They have a strong chocolate, minor mint scent and taste, but you get a good combination of both. I like that it also resembles choco-mint ♥
My only tiny complaint is that the entire bag is 422.6 calories. But chances are, you’ll either share this or eat it in several sittings, not just one.
Banana Man Marshmallow & Black Thunder Fruit Granola & Tsum Tsum Chocolate Bar
Our first item is a small little treat popular in japan for bringing together the chocolate banana flavor in a small marshmallow. I couldn’t find a calorie listing for this one.
Rating: ♥
I love marshmallows, but I don’t like banana (especially artificial) and this just didn’t appeal to me. I didn’t even taste the chocolate, they barely give you any. The concept is cute though.
The next item is the popular Black Thunder, a product by Calbee. It’s been in the box a few times, but never in granola form! I was very intrigued by this because I didn’t know this was a thing. It’s 99 calories and features granola with dried berries and covered in chocolate.
Rating: ♥ ♥ ♥
It’s alright. It was pretty hard, and I mainly tasted chocolate and raisins. It’s not bad, but is anybody else bothered by the fact it’s smaller than normal granola bars and it’s still 99 calories? You can get bigger for about the same amount, give or take, and I didn’t find it as filling.
The final item in this set is another item we’ve been seeing recently, a chocolate wafer bar by Furuta. It’s usually-always the same thing, but it’s been not only covered by Tsum Tsum, but Sanrio characters too! Last time, the one I had was covered in white chocolate and had Gudetama on it.
Each bar is 115 calories.
Rating: ♥ ♥ ♥
The flavor is unique for chocolate snacks. The texture reminds me of a kit-kat, but it isn’t sweet. It’s not bad, but it’s not my favorite either.
Cinnamon Apple Pie Umaibo & Cheese Rice Puffs
Here are our last two crunchy items, each pretty contrasting in taste. First I’ll cover the Cheese Rice Puffs (or “arare” as it says on the bag).
I love rice, especially rice snacks like this- but with all the other cheese flavors I’ve tried, I wasn’t sure if I was going to like this or not. Especially since it’s recommended date to eat it was back in October... They weren’t open prior to when I took these pictures, but they definitely tasted a bit stale >3<
Rating: ♥ ♥
Even though they are a little old, they don’t taste too bad. There isn’t much flavor to them but I still get something, and the crispy bite is still present. They remind me a lot of Bugles (those pointy corn chips people like to put on their finger tips because they look like witch nails).
Our other item is the ever-so-popular and one of my most favorite brands Umaibo. This time, we get a sweet Umaibo, which isn’t very common. It only has 44 calories in total.
Rating: ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥
It’s not my favorite Umaibo, but it’s really good. It tastes a lot like cinnamon toast crunch or applejacks, or like that coca-cola drink, an apple covered in cinnamon sugar.
Fruit Donut Gummy & Honey Apple Hard Candy
These are our last 2 items of the box this month. We’ve gotten the fruit donut gummy a few times in prior boxes, and they come in a variety of mixed flavors- which always makes it a lot of fun to see what you get next~
This time, I got a lemon and lime mixed one. The bottom is always a creamy marshmallow flavor, and the entire thing is covered in sugar. The calories are 39 or this one ring.
Ratings: ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥
These are always really good, and this one was no exception x3 it’s delicious. It’s a simple thing, but it’s so sweet and cute. The inside of the bag still smells yummy~
Our final item is the Apple Honey Hard Candy, the healthy Kinosei snack of the month. Not only is it delicious, but it can help a sore throat you may get in the summers heat (which is possible, if I get really warm my throat ends up hurting... and no it’s not my tonsils. I don’t have those anymore).
Rating: ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥
It was instant love for me~ ♥ Usually I’m not a huge fan of hard candy unless it’s a flavor I really like- and these are amazing! They don’t really taste like honey to me, more like... cooling apple. It reminds me a lot of a cough drop I really liked when I was younger, but once again, I don’t think they make them anymore. They were clear and had tiny colored beads in them, and they tasted like apple pie~
♥ Cutie Ranking ♥
Content - 3 out of 5. I felt like it was all essentially good, but there was one or two items I didn’t really care for. I felt like there wasn’t too much of a variety either, we had a lot of items featuring crunch/crispiness and chocolate, but at the same time, we had variety in terms of the theme itself.
Theme - 5 out of 5. I can’t lie and say it wasn’t there, cause it entirely was!
Total Rank: 7 out of 10 Cuties! It was pretty decent, and I liked how we had a broad theme such as fruits. It was fun to see where it could go, even if I did miss having savory snacks~ I hope we get more boxes with a specific food theme again soon!
♥ Cutie’s Scale of Yummy ♥
1. Honey Apple Hard Candy - the nostalgia of this brought so much back to me~ They’re also kind of cute to look at, they remind me of rectangular diamonds~
2. Caramel Corn Chocolate Mint - I LOVE chocolate-mint, this was everything I wanted~!
3. Fruit Donut Gummy - I love that combination of lemon-lime, it’s so light and refreshing~ I wish we got more gummies this month.
4. Chip Star Lemon Chips - I was very surprised by these, but I really liked them! I’m glad they weren’t fruity like I initially worried they’d be.
5. Cinnamon Apple Pie Umaibo - if you like that apple pie or cinnamon sweetness, you’ll love this.
6. Shimi Choco Corn - As common as it is, the packaging is always fun to look at and these always taste yummy!
7. Lemon Pocky - They are very sweet and creamy~
8. Coca-Cola Clear - I had higher hopes for it. It’s not bad, but for once a cola item did not meet my expectations >x<
9. Tsum Tsum Chocolate Bar - the summer themed package was adorable, but I could take or leave the bar itself.
10. Cheese Rice Puffs - I didn’t have too much of an opinion on these honestly.
11. Melon Pan Cookies - I was a bit disappointed with this one, the orange one had little flavor. The Melon-flavor was way better, but not enough to save it in my opinion.
12. Granola Black Thunder - Meh, it’s okay. The concept amazed me, and the package is fun to look at, but it wasn’t anything special to me.
13. Banana Man Marshmallow - It’s a cute idea, but the taste was not good to me.
Here we are guys, we’ve come to another reviews end~ I hope you enjoyed it, and stay tuned for the DIY review, followed by the August Doki Doki crate review!
Until next time, stay cute~

The market for subscription boxes is getting fierce; boxes packed with more products and with more variety. I’m not one usually for lifestyle items, but I decided to try My Little Box as they have their own beauty brand, and had a tempting first box offer for £10 (including postage). The concept of My Little Box is based on the typical lifestyle of a Parisienne and the monthly box contains a selection of items made up of lifestyle (e.g. notebooks), fashion (e.g. scarves), and at least two full sized beauty items (from their own brand). One important thing to note is that you can unsubscribe any time up until the last day of the month, as billing is on the 1st of each month., which is ideal if you want prefer a flexible subscription. Each box costs £14.95, which includes shipping, or £13.95 if you have the box delivered to your work address.
Ordering is easy, and quick with no profile to fill out; the presentation is beautiful, and the boxes are creatively illustrated, and make great keepsake boxes. The contents may vary slightly from each subscriber, but here is what was in my box:
Blue bandana/scarf
Notebook
A small bag of coconut bites
Fruit infusion water bottle
Mixa Body Lotion (250 ml)
A drawstring pouch
MLB Vitamin Shot 75 ml (facial scrub)
MLB Easy Morning 40 ml (face moisturizer)
The theme was the ‘Garden’ for this month and included a chart of fruit and vegetables and when they are season, which was a nice touch, even though it may not be that useful, but you never know! The main item, the fruit infusion water bottle was the most intriguing item, and it’s quite ingenious. Of course you can use it as a normal water bottle without any fruit, but there are a few ideas with what to add, namely chopped up mint, lemon, or cucumber. The idea is to encourage a healthy way of drinking by upping your fruit content. The navy blue scarf was sweet, but to be honest I doubt I would ever use it, but as a writer, notebooks always come in handy. A full sized body lotion is something everyone can use, and can double up as a hand lotion, and inside the drawstring pouch were the beauty items. The Vitamin Shot is a gentle gel scrub with apricot, bamboo, and argan oil, which was refreshing to use. The Easy Morning moisturiser is a light lotion that is suitable for all skin types, and has a fresh and subtle scent to it. Currently, the My Little Beauty products can only be bought in France and the moisturiser retails at €14, which makes the box excellent value, which already covers the cost of the box. The quality of the beauty products was good, and are packaged stylishly, and the range seems to be expanding.
Rating and verdict
4.7/5
[yasr_overall_rating]
The whole process from ordering to receiving the box was easy and straightforward. Signing up was simple, and the products in the box were all excellent quality and packaged perfectly. This is more of a treat box as it also contains lifestyle and fashion items rather than a beauty box, however, many other beauty boxes seem to be incorporating lifestyle elements into their boxes too, simply because there is a limit to obtaining samples from cosmetics companies.
On the whole, the box represents good value for £13.95/£14.95, and the ability to unsubscribe at anytime gives the consumer control. If you like the April box, you can still order it now (as long as there are stocks) until the end of the month. Use the code FIRSTBOX to get your first box for £11 or £10 if you choose to have it delivered to your office.
My Little Box ~ April 2017 Review
The market for subscription boxes is getting fierce; boxes packed with more products and with more variety.

Imaging at a trillion frames per second | Ramesh Raskar
New Post has been published on https://hititem.kr/imaging-at-a-trillion-frames-per-second-ramesh-raskar/
Imaging at a trillion frames per second | Ramesh Raskar
Translator: Joseph Geni Reviewer: Thu-Huong Ha Doc Edgerton stimulated us with awe and curiosity with this photo of a bullet piercing by means of an apple, and publicity only a millionth of a 2d. But now, 50 years later, we are able to go 1,000,000 times rapid and see the sector no longer at one million or one billion, however a thousand billion frames per 2d. I gift to you a new sort of pictures, femto-pictures, a brand new imaging process so quick that it may well create gradual motion movies of sunshine in movement. And with that, we are able to create cameras that can appear around corners, beyond line of sight, or see inside our physique with out an x-ray, and rather undertaking what we mean by way of a camera. Now if I take a laser pointer and switch it on and off in a single trillionth of a 2d — which is a couple of femtoseconds — i’m going to create a packet of photons barely a millimeter broad.And that packet of photons, that bullet, will travel on the speed of sunshine, and again, a million occasions turbo than an usual bullet. Now, in case you take that bullet and take this packet of photons and fireplace into this bottle, how will those photons shatter into this bottle? How does mild seem in gradual motion? Now, the entire event — (Applause) Now recall, the whole occasion is easily taking situation in not up to a nanosecond — that’s how a lot time it takes for light to travel. However i’m slowing down on this video with the aid of a aspect of 10 billion, so you will see that the sunshine in motion. (Laughter) however Coca-Cola did not sponsor this research. (Laughter) Now, there is rather a lot going on in this movie, so let me damage this down and exhibit you what is going on on. So the heartbeat enters the bottle, our bullet, with a packet of photons that start traveling through and that scattering inside of. One of the gentle leaks, goes on the table, and you start seeing these ripples of waves. Many of the photons eventually reach the cap and then they explode in quite a lot of instructional materials. As you will see, there’s a bubble of air and it is bouncing round inside.Meanwhile, the ripples are journeying on the table, and due to the fact that of the reflections at the prime, you see in the back of the bottle, after a number of frames, the reflections are focused. Now, in case you take an normal bullet and let it go the identical distance and gradual down the video — once more, by means of a element of 10 billion — are you aware how lengthy you’ll have got to sit right here to look at that film? (Laughter) A day, every week? Without a doubt, a whole 12 months. It would be an extraordinarily boring movie — (Laughter) of a slow, common bullet in movement. And what about some nonetheless-existence photography? That you would be able to watch the ripples, once more, washing over the table, the tomato and the wall in the again. It can be like throwing a stone in a pond of water. I suggestion: that is how nature paints a image, one femto frame at a time, but of direction our eye sees an integral composite.But in the event you seem at this tomato yet another time, you are going to become aware of, as the light washes over the tomato, it continues to glow. It does not grow to be dark. Why is that? Considering the fact that the tomato is simply ripe, and the light is bouncing around within the tomato, and it comes out after a few trillionths of a second. So in the future, when this femto-digital camera is for your digicam cell, you probably ready to go to a grocery store and investigate if the fruit is ripe with out truly touching it. (Laughter) So how did my team at MIT create this digital camera? Now, as photographers, you realize, in case you take a brief publicity photo, you get very little gentle. But we’ll go 1000000000 instances faster than your shortest exposure, so you’re going to get infrequently any mild. So what we do is we ship that bullet — that packet of photons — thousands of instances, and file again and again with very intelligent synchronization, and from the gigabytes of information, we computationally weave together to create those femto-movies I showed you.And we can take all that uncooked data and deal with it in very interesting approaches. So, Superman can fly. Another heroes can emerge as invisible. However what a couple of new vigour for a future superhero: to look round corners. The suggestion is that we would shine some mild on the door, it will leap, go inside the room, a few of that is going to reflect again on the door, and then back to the digital camera. And we might exploit these a couple of bounces of sunshine. And it’s no longer science fiction. We now have simply constructed it. On the left, you see our femto-camera. There’s a mannequin hidden at the back of a wall, and we’re going to soar light off the door. So after our paper was once released in Nature Communications, it was once highlighted with the aid of Nature.Com, they usually created this animation. (song) (song) Ramesh Raskar: we’ll fireplace those bullets of sunshine, and they’re going to hit this wall, and due to the fact of the packet of the photons, they will scatter in the entire instructions, and a few of them will attain our hidden model, which in turn will once more scatter that gentle, and again in turn, the door will reflect a few of that scattered light.And a tiny fraction of the photons will in reality come again to the camera, but most apparently, they are going to all arrive at a somewhat exclusive time slot. (track) And seeing that we’ve a digital camera that can run so fast — our femto-digital camera — it has some specific competencies. It has superb time decision, and it may well appear on the world on the speed of light. And this manner, we know the distances, of course to the door, but additionally to the hidden objects, however we have no idea which point corresponds to which distance. (track) via shining one laser, we will document one raw photograph, which, in case you appear on the monitor, would not really make any experience. But then we will take plenty of such photos, dozens of such images, put them collectively, and take a look at to analyze the multiple bounces of sunshine, and from that, do we see the hidden object? Will we see it in full 3D? So this is our reconstruction. (track) (Applause) Now, we have now some approaches to go earlier than we take this outside the lab on the street, however someday, we could create automobiles that avert collisions with what’s around the bend.Or we are able to seem for survivors in hazardous conditions by using looking at mild mirrored through open home windows. Or we can build endoscopes that may see deep within the physique around occluders, and also for cardioscopes. However of course, in view that of tissue and blood, this is fairly challenging, so that is particularly a name for scientists to begin interested by femto-photography as rather a new imaging modality to solve the subsequent generation of well being-imaging problems. Now, like Doc Edgerton, a scientist himself, science grew to become artwork — an artwork of extremely-speedy pictures. And i noticed that all the gigabytes of information that we’re collecting at any time when, aren’t only for scientific imaging.But we can also do a brand new form of computational pictures, with time-lapse and colour coding. And we seem at those ripples. Remember: The time between each and every of these ripples is only a few trillionths of a second. However there’s additionally anything humorous happening right here. While you seem on the ripples below the cap, the ripples are relocating away from us. The ripples must be relocating closer to us. What is going on on right here? It seems, when you consider that we’re recording virtually at the pace of light, we now have strange results, and Einstein would have adored to look this photo. (Laughter) The order at which pursuits take place on this planet appears within the digicam frequently in reversed order. So by means of applying the corresponding area and time warp, we can proper for this distortion. So whether it can be for pictures round corners, or creating the next iteration of health imaging, or creating new visualizations, due to the fact that our invention, we now have open-sourced all of the information and details on our website, and our hope is that the DIY, the creative and the study communities will exhibit us that we will have to discontinue obsessing concerning the megapixels in cameras — (Laughter) and start specializing in the subsequent dimension in imaging.It can be about time. Thank you. (Applause) .
