Notoriously Morbid : Vanishing Cabinet August 2016 "Perfect Day"

Hey there geekonistas!


I usually try not to be snarky, because I truly believe the world is a better place when you put out positive energy instead of negative. However, today I have had enough of something and I really need to make my displeasure known. Can we PLEASE stop saying that things make people's eyes "pop"? It just... it just sounds so dang disturbing! I just can't stop picturing beauty gurus with their eyeballs rolling around on the floor and its horrible and funny at the same time and makes me feel like a terrible human being. So please, save me from being just the worst and let's.. stop.

Innocent + Twisted : i+t alchemist - August 2016

Guys. GUYS.

I missed out on July's i+t alchemist. It was the restructuring month where only the one month trials were available and I was gonna order it and I forgot until all of the sudden it was August first and I couldn't get it anymore. Guys. I missed out on the Ranma 1/2 themed box! One of my favorite anime of all time and I missed out on the subscription dedicated to it! *sobs inconsolably* Thankfully, overstock of the individual colors should be up on the Innocent & Twisted store soon, so I can at least get a hold of those. *Sigh of relief*

Once Upon A Book Club

Hey there geekonistas!

Well, this weekend was both fun and hugely stressful! The Sabakon Fashion show was a blast, but for  someone with severe social anxiety, it was also very draining. I must have done five or six test runs of my makeup for show last week, which burned me out a little bit, so let's move away from beauty today and into something at least equally as cool! (To me, anyway). I just got my first box from Once Upon a Book Club and I just HAD to share it with you!

Glamour Doll Eyes: OTM August 2016

Hey there geekonistas!

So, wow! I'm going to be in a geeky fashion show this Saturday! I'm excited but also kind of terrified, since I've never actually done anything like this before. I'm walking for Darling Army, who makes some of the best "simple" cosplay clothing around, like pinafores, printed dresses, leggings, and a whole lot more! If you live in the Las Vegas area and want to come see the show, it's going to be a part of the Sabakon convention at the Alexis Park Resort, Saturday at 11 am. Whee!
But before all that, let's jump into something else exciting: this month's OTM from Glamour Doll Eyes!

Espionage Cosmetics: BOOM! Box August 2016

Hey there geekonistas!

I don't know if this happens to anyone else, but when I have a bunch of packages and subscriptions on order, no matter when I ordered them, they all seem to arrive at once! That happened to me this week and it's super fun, but also kinda sad at the same time since I feel like there is so much to look at and unpack that I don't spend as much time enjoying each item. Still, when you have a pile of really awesome packages and you rush to open one particular one first, you have to know that one is pretty special, right? Well, for me this week, that "special" package is definitely my BOOM! Box from Espionage Cosmetics!

Hello Waffle Cosmetics: Visage - July 2016

Hey there geekonistas!

Well wow, this is a late post! You can blame the Canadian Postal Workers for that, though. They inconveniently decided to have a strike last month, severely delaying my Visage shipment. I know, it's all about me, right? Haha, anyway, things seem to be back to normal now, so let's take a look at the July Visage box!

Fortune Cookie Soap: Soap Box Fall 2016

Hey there geekonistas!

So here is something funny - Yesterday was my one-year bloggiversary! Yup, it was exactly one year since I published my first blog post. It's so hard for me to believe that I've really made it this far! In honor of this milestone, I thought it would be appropriate to review the same product I reviewed for my first post - the Fortune Cookie Soap Fall Soap Box!

My Pretty Zombie: Madhouse Collection

Hey there geekonistas!

Yeah, okay, I know most people right now are fully in the swing of summer, thinking about cookouts, hanging out by the pool, wearing shorts and sunglasses, and other such warm-weather activities. But there are some among us...a special few... who are impatiently waiting for summer to end so it can just be Halloween season already! Well my spooky friends, this new collection from My Pretty Zombie has you covered - guaranteed to put a little chill down your spine even while the temperatures outside are soaring.

July Favs and Flops

Hey there geekonistas!

I honestly have no idea where July went - it seems like just yesterday I was so excited about getting to wear tropical scents and now everybody is putting out "back to school" signs and apple-scented everything. We've still got some summer left, though, and even though the weather here is more towards the "wash you away" side than the "bask in the sun" side, I'm going to enjoy what's left!
Speaking of enjoying summer things, why don't we take a look at all the things I was enjoying during the month of July? You may want a snack and a comfy seat, 'cause there were a lot of them!
