Review: Fynale J01 Honoo Blue Circle Lenses

Did I say "end of the year soon"? I'm late as usual heh-heh.... ^^;

But as stated a few posts ago, I wanted to put up my review on my first pair of blue circle lenses!!



Let me tell you... these lenses are beautiful! I wanted to do something daring as well as bold, and these lenses provide a nice blend of both. The style is similar to my dreamy.i brown lenses, in the fact that you have the bold black outer ring, and just the one color for the inner ring, with dithering effects to help blend with your natural eye color. However, they also have a cute little heart ring that traces the inside of the blue, so in some cases, it looks a bit odd on some eye colors (in my opinion). Again, because these are blue lenses, they usually look STUNNING on people with naturally blue eyes, but I love these lenses a lot on myself too! 

Click to go to the website!!

This was my first time ordering from Love Shoppingholics, and based on my previous experiences, they're on par in both shipping time (about 2.5 weeks) and price (about $24.00 USD). I have no complaints, and I feel like I am able to find actual pictures of people wearing the lenses more than what I've come across on other circle lens sites (so it's a tie between here and Geo Lens House on Facebook).

SOOOOOO onto the mini  review and what few pictures I've remembered to take way back when!

Comfort: 4.0
These lenses are quite comfy, though once that 7th hour started to creep up on me, my eyes started to dry out, but nonetheless, almost 7 whole hours with minimal discomfort is freaking awesome!! 

Color: 4.5
This. Color. Is. So. Beautiful. It's clear and vibrant and so lovely! It was exactly what I had been looking for to put one foot outside of my usual comfort zone. I have few regrets with such a nice color. 

Style: 4.0
The inner heart ring is ridiculously cute, but sadly it's pointless if no one can see the ring :( because of my eye color, I never even knew the little ring of hearts existed!!

Enlargement: 3.5
These lenses are 15mm diameter lenses, the largest pair I've ever owned I think, but for what ever reason, they don't look all that big, but that could also be because the outer black ring isn't so prominent in the following pictures.

Price: 5.0 
Bright, comfy, good quality lenses for under $25.00? Yes please!!

Website: 5.0
Love Shoppingholics website is very cute, I'm not the biggest fan of pink, but I can put this on my exception list!!

And finally, the pictures!!! These aren't gyaru-styled photos at all, I only took a few pictures of me wearing them around the first few weeks or so of having them, then forgot every time after that ^^; But enjoy anyway!!! I think these are the first pictures of me playing with my new camera? So worth going broke for... but that's for another post! Be sure to click on the pictures to enlarge them to see the full detailing of the lenses too. ^^






That's all for now.... Bye bye!!!!

Recovery...

I've abandoned taking care of my blog, and for that I must sincerely apologize...

There's been a lot going on in my life, aside from school being a bunch of crud muffins, my family and I recently laid a loved one to rest. I don't think I've fully recovered from it, it isn't until someone is gone that you start to notice all the little things missing in your life. I have many precious memories, and now, it's all I have left. My grandmother is taking this full force of all this and the toll it's taken on her has me worried, she's getting better, but it's still hard. We've all been overwhelmed by the love and support from family and friends, it's been nothing short of amazing.

Even so, I've strayed away so far from gyaru, I wouldn't be able to tell you left from right. I try and stay tuned in but I haven't worn full face makeup in months. In fact, I just usually put on some lip gloss and head out the door. Yeah, that's how bad things have been, I've just been way to depressed to even care about make up, let alone take the time out to put some on.

I do intend to recover, but I just need more time... I also intend to get those other posts up, of this I am sure. Be patient with me, it's not over yet. 

P.S. Read/Watch Fairy Tail, it's awesome :)

Bye Guys, I'll be back soon! Like, near-the-end-of-the-month soon!!

Retail Therapy

Retail therapy...





Best concept ever, am I right? I think I'm always making an excuse just to go out and buy something... it makes everything all better, if only for a little while ^^; but as of late, I have found sweet solace in hitting up some of my favorite places to shop. Sure, they're NOT gyaru brands, but they're figure-flattering and don't burn a hole in my wallet! I wanted to share my most recent gets from a few of my favorite stores... 










These clothes look better on me than the hangers I swear!! XD it's safe to assume (because I can't recall the prices) that all the items listed were no more than $20 each, which is cutoff point when it comes to shopping in my terms. I'm not paying $50 for a Gucci t-shirt!

Posts in Progress:

1) My first experience at Otakon 2013/ vacation time
2) Review! My first BLUE circle lenses!
3) Updated Foundation/ Concealer routine
4) Archive - Who I'm following on Youtube
5) Also, hopefully be the end of September, I'll be making an updated archive of whose blogs I follow as well!

Bai bai! :3
