Amazon Prime Blunder Releases New ‘Doctor Who’ Episode Days Before Its Premiere
Doctor Who Series 11 has taken off on a high start with the viewing figures for the opening episode “The Woman Who Fell to Earth” now exceeding 11 million viewers. The series penned by new showrunner, Chris Chibnall, and a mix of other new writers, has so far gained very mixed reviews within its fanbase. You either love it or you hate it.

Makeup Primers That'll Give You an All Day Look
Makeup primers are one of the most essential steps in your makeup routine. If you don’t use a foundation primer, your makeup is more likely to look cakey, show imperfections, and wear off easily, because a face primer is what sets your makeup and allows it to have that matte finish that we all strive for. Each primer has different effects that can color correct, reduce fine lines, and give a natural, oil free glow. Sephora is going to be your ultimate stop to find the best correcting primers on the market for that all day look you’re going for. You don’t need to be a makeup artist to get beautiful skin, or the perfect look you desire.

Why Are Men Afraid of Feminism?
Why are men afraid of feminism? It's a loaded question. Not all men feel this way. Not all men disrespect, oppress, or control women. Not all men hold women in disdain. Some men, however, cannot even hear the word “feminism” without frothing at the mouth. Why are they like that?

Christmas on the Cheap
Christmas has become severely commercialized and most of us can agree that it can be wallet draining.

There are a lot of reasons for this, but with Christmas especially, many people cannot afford such extravagant gifts. Some people even tend to go further into debt around the holidays while others rely on a holiday bonus that any company can revoke if they so please.
