So you probably found yourself here at my little blog because you were wondering how my experience went with placing a shoe order on finishline.com
Starters that were super easy to place my order and pay for my order through PayPal
I had come across quite a few reviews that said to avoid this place like the plague, and a lot of consumer affair reports that were all negative. I decided though that I really wanted a pair of Adidas eqt in pink,
And no other website was offering these shoes for the price that I could get them here at finishline.com. So I figured it was worth the trial-and-error. I figured hey, maybe I'll have a good experience, I'll give them a sho...t besides nothing wrong with it because I have a local store nearby and if something goes wrong I could always go there and return the shoes.
Unfortunately I'm sad to report that my shoes have yet to be shipped out. They are scheduled to be here in my possession as of tomorrow. But unfortunately for the past five days my status has said that it is still in the process of the label being created, and the shipment has yet to go out.
I said customer service an email asking them when my package is actually going to be shipped out, and I'm awaiting a reply. I don't update this piece if I get a reply, and ad in my final thoughts
So far....not good.

ShopDisney Really Hid September's Memories Merchandise
I guess to keep thing fair for september, due to every previous months memories items selling out at 3am eastern time...this month disney made it even more difficult to obtain the merchandise
The items were sold out before you could even find them on the site. Only those who were savvy enough to find them through Google got lucky this time around
I secured a mug and plush but at 3.50am I am still unable to find the pins

Terrarium TV DONE
What's that terrarium TV has finally closed down as of today. There is no discussions on whether or not it will be coming back, but people who open up the app today will find that it does not work. A Farewell notice is also being displayed on the screen, it claims that it won't work at the end of September but we find it is not working currently right now.

Review of LUSH: Angel's Delight Soap
Lush is an addiction, a love, a passion, and honestly I need an AA
program to help me recover, and to stop spending half my paycheck every
other week on their site.
WHAT IS LUSH?
Lush is a bath and body product store and online store. Everything is made of fresh fruits, vegetables and herbs. Most of their products are all natural and vegan. None of their products are ever tested on animals. This is sort of what attracts me to their products, the fact that it's chemical free, and no animals were guinea pigged. Oh yeah, and the smell of their products are divine. But I'll mention this further on.
WARNING:
Lush soaps, massage bars, body butters and other items all melt rather quickly. Not melt before your eyes quickly, but fast enough. So when I order their soaps, I cut them into sample sized pieces and use one at a time. I save the rest in a cool dry place, or in the fridge.
If you ever happen to order from www.Lush.com expect to wait from 12-15 days for it to ship to you. You can also shop ant any local lush stores if you happen to have one nearby. If not your stuck to shopping online, which stinks because their shipping rates are a bit unfair.
Items will arrived neatly packed and sealed with a kiss (Thats what the label says anyways). Your items should all have an expiration date. Yup thats right, some of Lush's products have an expiration date as to when you should discard the item. However I have never gotten such a thing on any of my items, and I don't know why Lush mentions it, if they don't add it. There should also be the name of the person who handmade your product. Again, I have yet to receive this either. It's a small disappointment, but the products make up for it. Not only that with every order Lush throws in 2 samples of their products. Sometimes though it's as if they don't really look what you ordered and you end up with 2 samples of things you already have. Wake up Lush!
MY ITEM OF THE WEEK:
ANGELS DELIGHT!
It's a lovely glycerin/cream handmade soap. On the Lush website it is pinkish in color with glitter stars all throughout.
However Lush soaps are cut from the block, so you never know what you're going to get. I for one have never ever gotten the golden ticket; as in angel stars.
My first bar was an all pink glycerin based soap. But my second order of it came in a pink and purple glycerin, with swirls of creamy blue throughout it. The scent thankfully remained the same.
The soap itself it $6.65 for 3.5oz bar.
I cut mine up into sample sized pieces and got nearly 10-12 pieces out of it. Pretty cool!
Lush soaps are known to become very potent once warm water hits them. It's like activating the stink button. But oh the stink is heavenly. I could really understand why Lush would call this one Angel's Delight. It smelled simply delightful. A delicious scent of fruit punch filled the air, and I happily scrubbed away.
In the shower I knew this glycerin based soap would last most likely for only 5-10 minutes and melt away to nothing. However it lasted so long I didn't even have to use the entire thing. So I saved the rest for the next day.
Angel's Delight doe not do such a wonderful job though when it comes to creating a luscious lather. However it did make me feel clean, and it did rinse off without leaving any residue or greasy icky feeling behind.
After my shower was over and done with, I could smell the scent of this fruity goodness surrounding me and sticking with me. The smell lasted for at least 3-4 hours afterward, which is pretty dang good for soap. I never have any soaps scent last with me after a shower. Usually the scent is gone when I'm dry. This is not the case with Angels Delight. This is why I dub this particular soap with a perfect 100% when it comes to Lush soaps.
It's so lovely I'm growing wings.

Review of LUSH - Big Blue Bath Bomb
ANOTHER LUSH ITEM OF THE WEEK:
BIG BLUE!
Big blue is a bath bomb created by Lush. It is an all natural alternative to the chemical baths most people these days are happily soaking in.
I ordered mine online at www.Lush.com for $5.40 for a 6.3oz ball. And what a ball it is! It is seriously just as big as a softball, and although some say to cut it in half to save a piece for another time, I found this nearly impossible to do without ruining the bath bomb.
RUB A DUB DUB, SEAWEED IN THE TUB!
I ran my bath and plopped big blue in, immediately big blue began fizzing and changing my clear bath water to a lovely turquoise color. This beautiful color alone was relaxing. But not only that Big blue let out a subtle scent of herbs. It smelled like pizza herbs mixed with mint.
Just when I though that was all Big Blue had to offer, I began to feel scratchy particles at the bottom of my tub and under my butt. I also noticed black particles floating about in the water. The beautiful blue water was now filled with ghastly particles. Usually when I use bath bombs it makes the water feel silky, smooth, and moisturizing. This was not the case with Big Blue. The water felt the same.
SEAWEED! Thats exactly what was floating all over the tub. I tried to enjoy it seeing how I spend almost $6 on this experience. However it grossed me out too fast and I ended up only soaking in it for a good 10 minutes before hopping out.
I was also disappointed to see that my skin had not felt any more moisturized than when I went into the tub.
On the site I had read that these seaweed particles would easily drain down the tub. So I drained the tub, and went for bed.
The next day my boyfriend comes in and tells me we need a plumber because he sees black worms coming out of the drain. I had to laugh. I knew Big Blue must have left behind a few seaweed particles that didn't go down.
When I went into the bathroom I discovered the mess everywhere. Stuck to the drain, stuck to the edge and bottom of the tub! What a mess! 10 minutes wasted cleaning up the mess. a 20 minute investment, all of which were just a pain in the butt.
I felt like packaging up the seaweed and sending it back to lush and asking for a refund.
Overall I have been satisfied with many of my Lush products, but Big Blue was a huge nasty burn.
INGREDIENTS:
Sodium Bicarbonate, Citric Acid, Atlantic Sea Salt Crystals (Sodium chloride), Perfume, Arame Seaweed (Eisenia arborea), Lemon Oil (Citrus limonum), Lavender Oil (Lavendula hybrida), Seaweed Absolute (Fucus vesiculosus), FD&C Blue No. 1, FD&C Yellow No. 5,

Review: Lush Sandstone Soap
I'm sure all of us know the feeling of a gigantic wave washing up on us,
tumbling us around like dry clean, and leaving us wet, scratched up,
and our bathing suits filled with sand. That gritty feeling is known by
almost everyone reading this.
So why would we want that gritty feeling while showering? We wouldn't actually, but thanks a whole lot Lush for making such an awful soap.
SANDSTONE:
A glycerin soap made by Lush, sells on their site for $6.95 for a 3.5oz bar. You can also obtain this soap at any local Lush store. The soap itself is yellow in color with swirls of white soap throughout it. On top it looks as if they dipped the soap into a batter of gritty sand. Thus creating the name, Sandstone.
The soap is used to moisturize the skin, and the sand is added in to give exfoliation. (The removal of dead skin particles)
I would not normally buy a soap with sand in it, but with a recent Lush order they were kind enough to throw it into my box as a free sample. Usually I love free samples, but Sandstone was no treat.
SHOWER POWER:
If you are like me, wasting anything that you get for free is a giant NO! So of course I had to put Sandstone to the shower test.
I took my sample with me into the shower, and left it in the soap dish until I was done shampooing and conditioning. I did this to test how long the soap would last in the hot humid area. Most soaps from Lush melt rather quickly. Sandstone however withstood the test of time, and only broke a sweat. I honestly thought it would melt into a pile of goo before I was ready to use it.
Anyways...
I rubbed the bar all around my skin, and the scent hit me pretty fast. It smelled just like Pine Sol, Pledge, and cheap furniture cleaner. It was lemony all right but the lemony scent was not natural. It was chemically and didn't sit well with me.
I went on scrubbing anyway. At first the sand on the top of the bar stood put, however once the soap began to melt I had sand everywhere. I scrubbed lightly because my skin is not used to exfoliation particles in my soap. Within just a few minutes of gentle rubbing, I noticed my skin was becoming irritated and was starting to hurt.
Not only that but there was sand everywhere, but my skin was turning bright red and getting splotchy in areas I had rubbed the soap.
This soap was a mess, and it made me feel gritty and dirty. I find it unusual for a soap to make you feel dirty, but this is exactly what Sandstone did.
I hoped out of the shower disappointed with the soap. Not only that I had particles of soap stuck in 'places'. I had to hop back into the shower and rinse off again.
The soap also did not leave the citrus smell behind on my skin. Usually Lush soaps are known for their potent powerful punch. Sandstone does not punch, it scratches.
HOW TO MAKE SOME SANDSTONE:
Sand, Water (Aqua), Glycerin, Sodium Palm Kernelate, Sodium Stearate, Perfume, Litsea Cubeba Fruit Oil, Coriander Oil (Coriandrum sativum), Sodium Chloride, EDTA, Tetrasodium Editronate, Gardenia Extract (Gardenia jasminoides).
OVERALL:
Sandstone was a nasty rude experience. It hurt like hell, and turned my skin raw. It did not provide any moisturization, all it did was rip at my skin, and leave sand in my bum. If I wanted an experience like this, I would have just layed down on the shores of an ocean and had the waves clobber me, and drag me across the sea floor.
I for one also do not have sensitive skin, but according to Sandstone, I do.
I usually love products from Lush, but with Lush soaps, it's always a hit or miss. For me, Sandstone was a big miss.
RECOMMENDATION:
Only for those who are used to abrasive painful body exfoliations. Everyone else...run!
If you do happen to take well to abrasive exfoliation, it is recommended to cut you bar into sample sized pieces and store the rest in a cool dry place, or a refrigerator.

Review of LUSH Sultana of Soap
LUSH ITEM OF THE WEEK:
SULTANA OF SOAP
Oh yeah!
Sultana of soap is another handmade cut from the block all natural soap from Lush. I lately have been obsessed with all things Lush. Everything they make is completely unique from items you will find at any regular beauty shop or drug store. The scents are like no other, and best of all Lush does not test on animals. Most products they make are vegetarian as well.
It is not unusual to buy a piece of soap that contains nuts, fruit, sand, vegetables and sea salt. (Sometimes you will even get products containing glitter)
Sultana of soap contains raisins (even though the description failed to mention this), dried out cranberries, currents, and apricot.
My bar however seemed to contain nuts, even though this was not in the description either. The soap itself is white with small particles of crunched currents and apricots. The top of the soap contains a nice little pile of raisins and cranberries. The soap that I got looked similar to the picture I have added, only my bar was misshaped square. Again, I preferred it this way only because it made cutting the soap easier.
Why would I cut the soap?
Well if you have never ordered from Lush before you may not know that their soaps melt quite quickly. When I get my bars I cut them into sample sized pieces ensuring more use from my bar. Out of the 3.5oz bar I get about 8-10 sample sized pieces. I take only one in the shower with me, and the rest I leave in a cool dry place, or I put them in a plastic container and save them in the fridge.
Sultana is a creamy soap, and cutting it was like slicing butter. However some of the cranberries and raisins may fall off of the top while you are cutting your bar, so be gentle!
SMELLS LIKE HEAVEN:
In the shower Sultana preforms better than most Lush soaps I have used. The lather was nothing to brag about, but compared to other soaps from Lush, it was pretty decent. The lather itself was not luscious or bubbly, but it was more like a lotion type lather. Creamy, but not silky.
The scent really stinks the place up once warm water hits the bar; but in a good way! Most Lush soaps have a very strong overpowering scent, that will last and last for hours. This is what Lush is known for, the soaps with a kick. It's like caffeine for your skin, and the scents last!
With Sultana I could detect the light scent of apricot and almond. Although there is no almonds in it, this was a distinctive scent I could easily detect. It was lovely. I rubbed the bar all over my body, and the raisin particles began to fall to the floor. These raisins surely would not rinse down the drain, so I had a few to pick up after I was done. It was annoying, yes, but the scent really made up for that little problem.
Mainly what I look for in my Lush products is not how well they moisturize, but how long the scent lasts. I can proudly report that the lovely scent will stay with you for hours after using Sultana. The moisturization it gave is nothing to write home about, but it was pretty nice compared to most soaps I have used.
All in all Sultana of soap is a must have from Lush. It has become one of my favorites, and I see myself ordering this over and over again.
Now that you have all of that information, lets talk about where to get a piece of you own.
If you are luck enough to have a Lush store nearby you can easily purchase it there in any ounce size you want. However if you're one of the unlucky ones like me, we have no choice but to order this from the Lush website at www.Lush.com. The soap itself will cost you $4.95 for a 3.5oz bar.
Shipping rates stink! That's probably the only downside of ordering from Lush. It will cost you $8.20 to have Lush ship to you with standard UPS. It will take anywhere from 10-15 days to get your order to you. The wait is killer, but well worth it in the end.
Honestly though if you're about to make you first purchase from Lush, be sure to add in Sultana; a sure to please soap.
HOW TO MAKE SULTANA:
Sodium Palm Kernelate, Water (Aqua), Propylene Glycol, Perfume, Dried Apricots (Prunus armeniaca), Dried Currants (Ribes rubrum), Titanium Dioxide, Dried Cranberries (Vaccinium macrocarpon), Olibanum Oil (Boswella Carterii), Bergamot Oil (Citrus bergamia), Sodium Chloride, Glycerin, EDTA, Tetrasodium Editronate
