G&G GBT Sky Review

Sorry, I didn't notice that the camera didn't focus properly. : (.

Hello everyone~ Back with another review! This time I'll be reviewing Dueba's G&G GBT Sky circle lenses that I bought from Pinky paradise. All photos were taken in my room, hence the bright white light.

Specs

Diameter: 14.0mm

Water Content: 38%

Base Curve: 8.6mm

Type: 1 year disposal

Service
This is the second time I've actually bought something from that website, and so far, I like it~ I got the registered shipping, so the package came in fourteen days (From January 27th to February 14th, excluding weekends). I believe the last time I ordered about a year ago it also came in the same time frame.  I was a bit surprised about how it was delivered though; I remember last time the package would be brought to my doorstep but instead, it was put in my mailbox... Then again, the package was sent via Fedex, not USPS, aha. I wonder why it changed... It came wrapped in pink cellophane...? If that's the right word. The bottles were wrapped about twice and then taped off to ensure that it would break during shipping. It's very safe and definitely needed. : ). If the customer service hasn't changed, then I can assure you that it is amazing. I remember last time I entered in coupon deal and after I hit the place order button I was scared that I had done it wrong. I emailed them and they responded as soon as they could (I placed the order on Saturday/Sunday so I had to wait a day or two for them to respond). They checked my order and voila, I was set. Not much to complain for from their website, to be honest. They are the first circle lens website I've ever bought from, and they will always hold a special place in my heart.

Colour
The colour isn't really that vibrant. If you're looking for contacts that are like "BOOM" in your face, then these aren't the ones for you. Rather, they give a slight tinge of colour, but out in the sun, it really isn't that noticeable. I wore them out for one day and only one person could tell I was wearing them, aha. If you are looking for the type of lenses that don't stand out and can change the colour of your eyes slightly, these are for you!

Design
Pretty... Normal? xDD. I mean, they definitely aren't like the Princess Mimi series - far from it. No giant, black limbal ring. Just... Normal 14.0mm contacts. They don't provide a major halo effect. It could just be that the contacts were out of place for me, because I could make out a very tiny halo around my eyes. Other than that, the design is pretty natural. The gradient effect they have doesn't go from a super contrasting colour to blue, but blue and outwards. So far, only one person has noticed that my eyes were coloured - and that was only because we were having a face to face conversation. On lighter coloured eyes, the design will be more noticeable (Obviously) but for dark coloured...

Enlargement
Like I've stressed before, these contacts are natural. They are perfect for everyday wear! There is no limbal ring, so the enlargement is very minimal. They are very close to my natural eye size, so it does not give me a dolly effect.

Comfort
I guess my eyes are a bit drier than others, because I had to reapply contact solution to my eyes...

Overall
Overall, I would recommend these contacts for anyone who wants an every day pair of lenses that aren't "in your face" noticeable.

Maybelline: Baby Lips - Review

I was at a local CVS picking up some nail polish colours and I stumbled across the Baby Lips products. Knowing that all of my friends that wore lip products had labelled this one off as their favourite, I knew I had to try one. Between Peppermint and Pink Punch, I decided that I would buy #25, Pink Punch. Probably one of my worst impulse buy choices.

Packaging and Design:

Just like a chapstick container, the Baby Lips container is more or less the same; the bottom portion of the tube twists up, allowing the product to come out. I've noticed that as long as the clear cap is on, you can't twist the product out. That's a very good thing for me; you wouldn't believe how many lip products I've ruined because of that. Overall, I actually really like the container for the product; it's very cute and modern.

Colour:

The product gives off a pinkish tone. It isn't a vibrant pink, it's more like... A subtle pink? It's enough to change the colour of your lips without having people question whether or not you're wearing something, aha. As you can see in the picture below, the product gives your lips a bit of a shimmer.

Swatch.

Bare lips.

On lips.

Smell:

The smell reminds me a lot like the EOS lip balm in fruit punch too, actually. The smell itself isn't overbearing; in fact, I can actually live with it. It smells less like fruit punch but more like... Artificial punch...? if that makes sense. @_@. I mentioned earlier that I chose this flavour as the one I wanted instead of peppermint, and well, I was right. Although I dislike the smell of peppermint, I feel like I can bear that one more than this fruit punch smell; I know I strayed away from my EOS lip balm because I couldn't necessarily stand the smell of it... But like I said, if I don't focus on it, it doesn't bother me. I reallyyyyy wanted the Cherry Me product though because of the smell. ;-;;

Usage:

True to its word, the Baby Lips product does moisturize your lips. I didn't have to reapply the product a lot - only one to three times throughout the day, and two of which were caused by myself. If you're looking for a bit of a long lasting product, then I would recommend you check out these. : ).

Final Thoughts?

I think I will purchase from this line again, except... I won't choose Pink Punch, aha. If you're looking for something that smells good and is great for your lips, then go for it!

Peripera: Peri's Tint Milk - Review

I'm a sucker for anything 2NE1 or IU related. With that in mind, how could anyone resist when they saw the packaging for these products? The artist that drew the girls is actually the same artist as the one who drew the music video for 2NE1's song, Hate You. I know, I know, the makeup for this line isn't even for 2NE1! Regardless of that fact, it was still cute - it was probably one of the most colourful things in the store I was at.  NOW ON TO THE REVIEW: Peri's Tint Milk in #2 Milky Peach.

Packaging:
It's so cute omg. It's size is roughly the same as the Hellow Bunny Perfume Stick, actually. It's very simple and not overdone, plus the size of it makes it easy to fit in the palm of your hand.

Same same~

Application and Usage:
Simple, just apply to your lips and blend away~ I like to dab it on the center of my bottom lip and spread outward. : ). The colour stays on for a few hours, then you'd have to reapply it. I'd say that as long as you don't eat and drink when wearing it, it'll stay on longer, aha. The product itself is liquidy/creamy-ish.

Swatch on hand.

Colour:

The colour is pretty natural (at least for me). It does give my lips that little hint of pink to it, but the product doesn't give me an overwhelming amount - the colour is just enough to make my lips look natural when I wear it out.

On lips.

Final Thoughts?

The product is lovely; it's actually the first lip tint I've ever gotten. I'll be sure to get the other colours next time I see them! I like how it, for the most part, is a bit long lasting and definitely something that I'll wear to school. I'm not one for lip products that isn't chapstick and lip balm, so the fact that I like something like this is a bit rare.

Tony Moly: Hello Bunny Perfume Bar - Review~

A week or two ago, I ordered a product from Tony Moly - the bunny perfume stick! Honestly, I was bought  in by the extremely cut packaging, ahaha. I ordered the perfume stick in #5, Pompom Green Tea.

Look at how adorable it is!

Packaging:

The product is about 3 inches tall. I don't know why I expected bigger even though I read other reviews of it being small. Nonetheless, that only added to how adorable it was - I'm a sucker for items like that. The size makes it convenient for everyday travel; it fits in the palm of my hand and my pockets very easily. In fact, it almost reminds me of those circley nail polish containers.

Once you take off the cap, you'll notice a plastic piece there on the product. That's there in order to keep it more sanitary and to stop the product from smashing onto the top of the lid. I know for a fact that stopper will be useful for me; you have no idea how many chapstick tubes I've ruined because I forget to roll down the product...

Inside with the stopper.

Smell:

When I first took it out of it's packaging, I was surprised at how vibrant the smell was. I could smell it out of the envelope! Granted, my nose is overly sensitive to smells, but that's beside the point~ It smells like... A floral/citrus scent? A strong, sweet, orange scent is in it, and there's this slight after smell of flowers. Like I mentioned before, my nose is overly sensitive  In fact, I'd say at least 80% of smells that come from perfume/other products make me sick, due to how strong my mind perceive them to be. I'm glad to say that this doesn't do the same! There is a hint of green tea in it, but I wouldn't say it's as strong as the first two smells; rather, it's more of a smell that's very subtle. Once applied to the skin, the smell is very obscure; you CAN smell it, but it won't be the type where you can smell it five feet away, the closer you are, the more you smell. I personally like that factor of it; I highly dislike passing someone at school and getting a breath full of their perfume!

Usage:

The product glides on very nicely; almost like deodorant, to be honest. Although the stick itself is coloured, there is no actual colour when applied to your skin - in all honesty, you wouldn't be able to tell if there was anything there because of how there is no colour, except for the waxy residue it leaves behind. Even then, it disappears soon after, once the product starts to wear to the skin. After a few hours, the smell starts to fade and you'll have to reapply. That'll be easy though due to how small the container for the product is. 

Swatch on hand.

Final thoughts?

I love it~ I'm hoping that in the future I'll be able to collect all the containers for this series, ahaha. I bought this from A-Poly, an amazing seller on Amazon from Korea. This is actually the second time I've ordered from their company and in both situations, my items came earlier than the expected time - I know this one came a full two weeks earlier! I strongly recommend you go check them out. : ).

Pokemon White

     So about a moth ago, I bought Pokemon White from my friend, and I just finally got to open the packaging to play yesterday. And I'm amazed. The graphics are so much better as compared to the last games. I mean, when I first got into a Pokemon battle with a trainer, I couldn't believe just how good the graphics were.

The Pokemon
     To be honest, I had actually avoided the Black and White game versions because of the new Pokemon that would be added in. They just seemed to be running out of ideas, and well, the new Pokemon looked pretty... Odd. But after my friend had gotten a second copy and offered it to me for only $20 (It then became $10 once I made him change his mind), how could I resist? Now that I'm actually playing the game though, the Pokemon that I have so far encountered seem as if they are just remade versions of past Pokemon (ex. Purrloin = Skitty). But oh well. Hopefully they get better as the game progresses...

The Starters
     After having a long debate on the three, I chose Oshawott as mine, but Smugleaf Snivy came in close second. The reason why I didn't choose Snivy though was only because in SoulSilver, I had chosen Chikorita as my starter, so I decided to change it to a water type Pokemon. : ). I just hope that it doesn't turn out into something like Piplup...

The Story Line
     When I first started the game, the friend I bought this game from had told me that the story line for the game was one of the main things that he loved, and so far, I agree with him! I haven't gotten that far yet, but I can already tell that it will be promising. What got me though was that they introduced Team Plasma so early in the story (only in the first city I travel to and we already see a confrontation?). I can't wait to see how the ending will be, especially with a second Pokemon Black and White coming out soon. Hopefully N can make it back to the story though...
