Uniqso Dolly Eye Crystal.i Grey Circle Lenses Review

Today I'll be reviewing my first ever pair of circle lenses :) I hope you guys enjoy.

I got Dolly Eye Crystal.i Grey lenses from Uniqso, which is a lens and make-up reseller. They are secured by Paypal and ship internationally, which makes buying super easy! They sell both crazy eye lenses and circle lenses ^^

First I'm going to be reviewing the seller, Uniqso. Let's do a little timeline:

5/31: my order is processed and complete. I get an email from Uniqso's admin asking for a small survey, which I complete promptly. Just for answering two questions I get points added to my account! So nice!

6/2: my order is shipped. A tracking number is given to me. I shipped it via International Registered Post which takes 14-45 working days to arrive.

7/2: my order arrives to my doorstep. It's well within the time range, and also things always take an extra time to get to Argentina.

The seller was amazing and I would undoubtedly buy from them again. You get to talk to a real person and they are very prompt in their answers. I had absolutely no problems! 

I got the following envelope:

Lined with bubble-wrap and in perfect condition ^^

Inside:

A complementary lens case and a cotton swab to get the lenses out of their packaging.

Adorable packaging, at that!

And this is how they look like inside the packaging. The color is a very pretty clear grey!

And now, how they look on me...

Left: with // Right: without. No make-up. Natural light.

Both on. No make-up. Natural light.

This grey contact lenses blend so nicely with my light blue eyes!! I was surprised at how natural they looked, and how comfortable they were! Dolly Eye Crystal.i have 38% water content and they feel like you're not wearing anything. Even a first timer like me had no problem wearing these!

Just in case, here are the specs:

Brand: Dolly Eye (EOS)

Model: Crystal.i Grey

Water content: 38%

Diameter: about 14.5mm

Lifespan: a year after they are opened.

And now, of course, a close-up with make-up (and indoor light)!

I think false lashes really complete the look.

I hope you found this review useful! ^^

HAPPY BATH DAY Precious Rose - Rose Enrich Hand Cream Review

Hello everyone! Today, I'm going to be reviewing a product from one of my favorite Japanese beauty brands: HAPPY BATH DAY Precious Rose!

Rose Enrich Hand Cream is a thick, fluffy hand lotion that smells like heaven. All of HAPPY BATH DAY's products smell the same, but it's the best fragrance ever so I can see why they insist on putting it everywhere.

They describe it as a "fruity rose" scent. Seriously I would marry this perfume. It is SO GOOD.

But let's get back to the cream:

This lotion is enriched with wild rose extract, bulgarian damask rose honey, and tuberose. I bought it on a whim after my hands almost died in the Tokyo winter. Upon use my hands were healed immediately. 600 yen might seem a lot for such a little container of cream, but it's actually worth every penny. Better than anything I had ever tried before.

And of course, the smell! Hahaha. It stays on your hands for quite a while :)

As you can see the texture is super thick, enough to put my hand upside-down and it won't even bulge. The concentrated feel is what makes it better than runny, "milk"-like lotions, in my opinion.

I 100% recommend this product to anyone. It's specially great for use in dry climates or harsh winters.

Swimmer Pattiri Eyelash Review and Pictures

Japanese fashion, goods, stationary, and all-around-everything brand SWIMMER is the most varied group of shops I can think of. They sell everything from a stapler to a Nintendo 3Ds case, haha.

Being in love with the brand, I bought a 3.000 yen Lucky Pack and got these!

Pacchiri (romanized here as "pattiri") eyelash, by Swimmer. They sure looked interesting and were packed super-cutely, so I couldn't wait to try them on! That just happened today XD

A closer look. You can tell already that these are going to be very exaggerated, haha

Let's see a review overall!

-Feel: 2/5. These will definitely remind you every single second that you are wearing humongous fake eyelashes. They do put a lot of weight into every blink hahahah.
-Look: 3.5/5. Super overdone, but if it's your style, go for it!
-Design: 4/5. Not carefully calculated as, say, DollyWink lashes, but for not being an specialized make-up company, Swimmer did an amazing job.

Woah, erm, my eyes got ready to jump out the screen here. Like I said, no low-profile with these lashes, but they DO look super-cute on.

Really awkward photo closing my eyes just because I wanted to show how long the lashes are. Also, because the lashes already have a black "line" connecting them, it makes your eyeliner seem thicker.

Just for reference, I am wearing:

• Disney (TrenD) t-shirt
• Tokyo Disneyland Minnie light-up chunky bracelet
• Canmake Lip Concealer Moist In (Milky Pink), Powder Cheeks blush in Lollipop Pink, Perfect Serum BB Cream as base, and Secret Chiffon Pact as powder
• CandyDoll Lipgloss in Strawberry Milk
• Majolica Majorca Lash Enamel Mascara (Black)
• Dolly Wink Liquid Eyeliner in Deep Black
• Tokidoki Brillante Glitter Eyeliner in Mozzarella (Black with Silver Glitter)

^ that's a lot of make-up.

And then came webcam-whoring and Mickey Mouse ear time:

I am wearing those Minnie nail seals I already blogged about, so that instantly became a theme for the whole """photoshoot"""

If you can call this lame set of pictures in which my messy room is shamelessly visible a photoshoot.

To conclude, Pacchiri Eyelash are a fun set. However, I would definitely wear more adaptable, natural-looking pairs for my everyday look... even if you wanted to do gyaru fashion I would try to wear a more balanced pair of lashes.

But there are some pluses to Pacchiri: they come in the cutest packaging, the glue included does what it has to do, and for a fukubukuro they were an amazing surprise for me!

SWIMMER is still leading in the stationary market though! I adore that brand!

It is unknown to me, but they surely must sell other lashes. Swimmer simply sells everything. You might even find, like, spaceship parts in that store, dang.

What do you think about the lashes?

tokidoki Gelato Lip Balm Stain in Donutella - Swatches and review

Hello everyone!! Ready for a make-up review? :)

Today we will be going over tokidoki's Gelato lip balm stain in Donutella, a bright peachy-red color.

Here is a quick overview:

Look: 5/5

Feel: 4/5

Design 5/5

This is an AMAZINGLY colored product. Just a bit on your lips and they are sure to pop. The design is super-cute and practical, too. It's sized a bit bigger than a chapstick. The transparent illustrations are the highlight point for me. Donutella (the donut girl) rides her Unicorno around this lipbalm.

I apologize for my awful hands D:

As you can see, the color is very bright. Be careful though!! It stains if you touch it. The feel of the lipbalm on is a little dry, but it's OK if you moisturize your lips frequently with other products anyways. 

Here is a very light swatch on my hand. You can build up the color until it gets very intense. That's amazing!!

The product is also melon-scented. So yummy ^^

If you like cute things, tokidoki products are for you.

I can understand them being a little expensive (9 dollars for a lip stain), but I can say the products are worth it. They do not compromise quality over cuteness... they have a lot of both! :P

What do you think of tokidoki products?

tokidoki Prisma Gloss in STRAWBERRY LATTE ~Review~

Hello everyone! You know what time it is!! (or... maybe you don't??)

REVIEW TIME

The subject today is tokidoki's lovely Prisma Gloss in the color "Strawberry Latte".

Here's a quick overview:

Look: 3/5

Feel: 5/5

Design: 5/5

Now, why such a low rating on look? let's see...

This gloss is very nice, I would absolutely recommend it. It's mildy sticky, but not too much, and has an enticing blueberry smell. It's hard to resist licking your lips ^^; but please try to do so, for the sake of your make-up! LOL

The design is a key point here. The top has a small snow-globe filled with tokidoki logo-shaped confetti, and a cute character smiling at you. The character is usually the one the product is named after, this case, Strawberry Latte.

The packaging is a lil bit on the big side. I mean, if you're taking a REALLY REALLY TINY WEENY small purse, it probably won't fit. But usually most of us girls use bags thrice the size of our brains, so...

I really like the applicator (I sound like I'm talking of tampons here... yuck! why did I even mention it???), it's made out of rubber so it feels... weird. But nice. It spreads the product well.

The only downfall? No color! This is 100% transparent. And here I was hoping it would give me nudy lips... but, alas, the strawberry pink color isn't noticeable AT ALL on your lips. It's just gloss. It looks well, though.

 I hope you enjoyed this review~
