ios 6 Update Review

I just updated my Iphone4 and Ipad2 to the new ios 6. I would like to say...I effing HATE it! First of all that Passbook app piss me off the most lol. When I first saw it, I thought to myself, OK, this will be good, Apple never fails. Than I clicked on it and...It told me to go to the app store to download the boarding passes, tickets, store cards and coupon apps... SERIOUSLY? That app is a waste of space.

After I was getting annoyed of that passbook app, I realized they took out the Youtube app. I was so heartbroken! I love Youtube, I got on it everyday to see new videos from the channels I follow. Super bummed out about that Apple. I also tried searching for Youtube apps but there wasn't any until today. The layout is a bit confusing but it's something at least.

Another thing that was taken away from me was Google Maps. To be honest, That was a bad move Apple. Google maps is the best kind of map out there and you took that away and replaced it with a map that has little details to it...

The update wasn't that great, I honestly wished I didn't update, oh well. Aside from Those 3 problems, there are some things that were good. Like the fact the app store doesn't always ask for my password to update and stuff. I like the Apps Icons you get when you're trying to send pictures.

Also another cool feature that I love is the call feature. I can decline and call and send that a text that I will call the caller back with one button, or I can reply with a message.

Everyone has their own opinion about the update. I just happen to hate it.

Dumpling is what my boyfriend is saved under my contacts as...lol I don't actually call him that! & excuse the embarrassing picture of him too lol.

Game Review: Mario Party 9

Bought this game a few weeks ago. was super stocked when I bought this and I came rushing home to play it right away...I'm not gonna lie, I was really disappoint with the game...it's probably super exciting for little kids lol but for me...I was a little bit let down by the Nintendo company lol. Mario Party 9 was nothing like the other Mario Parties. In this game, all the player are on the same car going through the game together collecting start. You automatically get start for each turn so there was really no competition what so every. Everyone was a winner in this game and it was brutally boring.

The mini games however was pretty decent...not great but over all, I give this game 2.5 thumbs up out of 5.

Clinique Saved My Skin

So ever since I was like 11, I had really bad case of acne...like really BAD and gross. I've tried Clean & Clear, Neutrogena, Murad, Proactive & so much more crappy products! I thought had the most messed up skin ever! Until a few months ago, I decided to try out Clinique's 3 step acne plan.

I'm not gonna lie, I was very skeptical at first because I had so many of my friends bash the product. Most of them said it didn't work and others said that they stop using it because it made their skin dry and peel a bit. Honestly, it made my skin peel too at first but if you think about it, that just means that your skin is getting use to the solution & it's your dead skin that is peeling off. So don't be alarmed. o.O

Anyways, I started off with the $40ish starters kit from Sephora. It just has the 3 steps in small bottles & when I was half done, my ENTIRE face was pimple FREE!!! I WAS SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO HAPPY! =) Every since than, I haven't stop using Clinique.

I really love this product, so I thought I would share it to who ever that has tried every other acne product.

So I recently just ran out of the acne solution clarifying lotion & being the lazy butt I am, I haven't gotten one in 2 FULL weeks! lol As the results, I have gotten 4 pimples on my forehead . ='( Therefore, I decided to go to the Bay to get some. & lucky for me, my friend just informed me that Clinique was doing a promotion! With a minimum purchase of $28 you get FREE gifts! I love getting free gifts lol so I had to go!!

Inside the shopping bag

Step 2 Acne Solution: Clarifying Lotion $17

This is what I ran out of, I dunno why it's called a lotion lol it should be called a toner cause lotions are suppose to be creamy...am I right?! Also this lotion does sting my face every time I use it...I think that just means it's working lol.

Step 1 Acne Solution: Cleansing Foam $23

I love that fact that this is foamy.

Silicone Face Scrubber: $2 on Ebay

This is what I use to wash my face with the cleansing foam. I highly recommend this face scrubber! It got rid of my blackheads and is supper gentle on my face. Also this thing takes off my make up so easily! I love the fact that I can see all my make up on this scrubber, it just puts my mind to ease, that ALL of my make up is removed. & all I have to do is rinse the scrubber with water to clean it.

Step 3 was an acne lotion. I didn't buy it because I did not really need it. I just use any kind of face lotion after and it does not effect the results.
