Uniqso Barbie Puffy 3 Tones Blue Lenses! (・∀・ )

So I have been looking for a good pair of blue lenses to buy recently for my Sailor Moon cosplay. I had bought my previous pair of circle lenses on Pinky Paradise, but I thought I'd try another site! Plenty of bloggers get sponsored from Uniqso so I thought I'd try them out~

The pair of lenses I bought are called Barbie Puffy 3 Tones Blue. Here's the stock photo!

Since it was my first time ordering, I got 15% off! If you've never ordered before, you can get that too off ONLY your first order, the coupon code is right on the website! :D (but it can only be used once) Again I am NOT sponsored, and I paid for these!


I had some problems with shipping since I originally wrote the wrong address, and it had to get forwarded to my current address. =__=;; It would've been here in 3 weeks, instead I had to wait an extra week. But it still got to me!! ;A:

Inside the packaging was this cute little box that had the lenses in them, along with a free lens case~ Remember lenses expire after 1 year usually, so I wrote the day I got them +1 year so I know when to throw them out!

Here's the lenses themselves! I made sure to check if there were any tears in the lenses before opening since I don't want to receive defective ones. They ended up being perfectly fine~ I was also really happy that the packaging was really easy to open this time, my previous pair of lenses I had to use scissors!!

The lenses in the case. I just use Wal-Mart multi-purpose contact solution to put them in~

Oh! And here's the specifications:

Base Curve: 8.6mm

Color Tones: 3 Tones

Diameter: 16.2mm (I believe this is wrong information... the lenses they are similar to are 14.5mm and these don't seem much bigger than my other lenses that are 14.2mm)

Water Content: 38%



Here's what the lenses look like in! With natural light shining on. They make my eyes SO much bigger! Though I was a little disappointed the color wasn't brighter. Even so, you can still tell they're blue, and I really was going for BIG eyes since I'm cosplaying Sailor Moon! (Sorry if my make-up is a big smudgy >w>;; )

I specifically picked the 3-Tones Blue instead of a plain blue lens because I have naturally hazel eyes, and the inside of these lenses is about the same as my natural eye color. It makes them blend really well in my opinion!

Yeah I'm in the car, haha. Here's what they look like further away from the camera~

Inside with dim, artificial light.

And a close-up with artificial light!

Overall:

Color: 4/5 (I wish they were a bit brighter!)
Comfort: 5/5
Enlargement: 5/5
Customer Service: 5/5
Shipping: 4/5 (mainly due to USPS being stupid >///< )

I am satisfied with my Barbie Puffy 3 Tones Blue overall! They make me look like an anime character~

Brave Store Review! (◕‿◕✿)

Get ready for another review~! This time I bought some items from Brave Store. They have tons of absolutely adorable harajuku & korean fashion items!

I bought 3 items: the Pastel Suspender Skirt in green, Skeleton Hand Clips in white, and the Cat Sweater Dress. Here we go! I will let you know I am not sponsored by any stores or required to make these reviews, I buy all my items with my own money and just want to show what I think of them! <3


Each of the items were shipped separately from each other, which means I got them at different times. The first item I got about 2 weeks after I ordered, and that was the Cat Sweater Dress! Here’s the stock photo:

Judging from the photos I hoped it would be a bit longer like an actual dress, and my measurements met the ones on the site. The dress only comes in one size, so I made sure before I ordered! It’s more like a long-ish T-shirt though than a dress, which is still fine with me! I’d wear it with black leggings/pants under it anyways.

Here’s me with the dress/shirt on! It’s still very nice quality and pretty warm, considering it’s made of a little thinner material~ ( ´∀`)


 About 2 more weeks(a total of 4 since I placed the order) pass and I start wondering where my other items are. I e-mailed the owner of Brave Store and she was very helpful with making sure I was satisfied, letting me know that my other items were still on their way. I was really hoping they didn’t get lost in the mail!! ((゜д゜;))

About a week after I sent the e-mail, I got the Skeleton Clips in the mail! They’re on alligator clips and were the cheapest I seen on any other site, which is why I got them from Brave. I love them! <3


The next day after I receive my Skeleton clips, I FINALLY receive my Pastel Suspender Skirt!!  ಥ‿ಥ This is the packaging it came in after I opened it from the bubble-wrap mail. 
I love the color so much, I didn’t actually own anything that was mint-green really before I got this. (´ω`) My first photo shows the color a lot better, since it looks a bit blue in this picture.

Not quite sure what the brand of this skirt is, but it came with tags! The size on the skirt says size “M,” although on Brave Store there isn’t a sizing option and says it just comes in one size.  

On the size there’s a small zipper to put it on, and the waist isn’t made out of elastic. So if your waist is any bigger than mine, you probably won’t fit! The site says 66cm waist for the skirt and I was taking a chance with my waist being 68-69cm, haha. It still fits though! (⊙ヮ⊙)

 The straps are detachable which I like like a lot about it. They’re fastened on by buttons!


Here’s me with the skirt on. It fits me, but the straps are kinda short and makes the skirt really short on me! Won’t be wearing this unless I have leggings or safety shorts underneath. It fits a lot better with the straps off, since I can adjust the skirt to be at a better length at my waist. Here’s a side view too:



Overall: 7/10, would recommend to someone who’s my size or even thinner than me and doesn’t mind waiting a month for items! The quality of the items is really nice, but these items are definitely more for tiny-asian-girl sizing (and my bust and hips are pretty wide). Brave has other stuff too other than clothes like phone cases, bags, and tights! Their prices are really good though compared to other Storenvy stores which is why I originally chose to buy from there.

I hope this review helped somebody~ Have fun shopping! (ノ◕ヮ◕)ノ*:・゚✧

Sweet N’ Sour Review!

I’m gonna take a stab at reviewing some items I bought again! This time I got some really kawaii accessories from Sweet N’ Sour on etsy! You can follow her on tumblr too~



The items I bought were the かわいい necklace and the Kawaii Black Beanie.

 
The items came from Mexico and I live in Michigan, U.S., so it took about 3 weeks to get here. This was the cute packaging that she stuffed them in~ <3

 Inside the little box was all these fun items! There was a letter attached too, so cute. <3 My item i purchased is the mirrored acrylic necklace that says “cute” in japanese~

Here’s the beanie out of the bag! The material is really thick and warm, and it’s kinda snug on my head with the wig underneath, but just enough where it’s nice to keep my wig in place~! ´ ▽ ` )ノ Probably would fit a bit better without my wig.
Close up of the necklace to see how far down it goes. Good length, I don’t like it when necklaces end up being too long! It’s cut real nicely too, no sharp edges. The print is also a little more pink irl than in this photo (the first photo I took of it shows it better).

Overall I love these items! 10/10 would recommend and will maybe buy some more from their shop too, they have so many awesome items it was hard to pick just a few, haha.

Kawaii Goods Accessories Review!

I thought I would try doing a review of KawaiiGood's hand-made items that I bought! :D You can find her storenvy that I bought them from here~

Now let’s get started!


I got my package in only 3 days after she said they were shipped, and about 5 days after I placed the order, very fast! I think it’s cause we’re both in the U.S, haha.

She put them in a cute cupcake bag inside the packaging box and included a cute little note for me too! >3< She really cares about her customers!

Here’s some close-ups of the items I bought. I bought the Cherub Fuzzy Cross 2-way clip, Fuzzy Rainbow 2-way Clip, and the Cherub’s Angel Wings Clips in white.

The cross and the rainbow are also 2-way clips, which means they can be worn in your hair or as a pin.

 

The wings clips are hair-only though, and they’re super adorable! Here’s me wearing one, and the rainbow clip as a pin on my dress.

 

And as an added bonus, I got a lollipop with it too! I love it when stores send little extras~ >3<


And that’s that! 10/10 would recommend and will be wearing these all the time. =w= I’ll keep trying to do more reviews of other products I order online too!
