Geo World Series/Tri color Green

Picked up these from candylens.com which I still stand by being a fantastic shop!  These lenses are very nice. I admit I don't wear them often (clubbing/events) because they are a lot brighter than they show up on the model. The are very nice at blending and are only 14mm lenses. Gorgeous in the sunlight, they are as bright and pretty as fresh cut grass (odd description I know) Very comfortable and no enlargement for me </3 Best thing I love about these are the lack of limbal rings. Three colors Brown darker and then lighter green, that give for a greater blending and natural effect. These wil  be very natural on someone with light eyes, and are still great for those with dark.

Color: 10/10
Enlargement: 0/10
Comfort:10/10

Rilakkuma Kigurumi Pajamas!!

Photobucket

I finally got a Kigurumi Pajama a couple of weeks ago. I have always seen them around but not knowing what they were!. Once a common street fashion in Japan is now more or less cutesy lounge/couple wear. I found out more about it from youtube and Gaiaonline (surprise surprise) I decided to go for Rilakkuma a Japanese bear character. I was picky in between choosing Rali, or Pika, but I've always wanted bear pajamas. I got them from this great store http://www.kigurumi-store.com/shop/  They have an awesome array of Kigu's for spring and summer, and they also do pre-orders!I also bought the spring version (light weight non fleece) Still gets a bit warm if you're not in the A/C. Came VERY FAST they shipped it in about two days, and I got it 3 days later. EMS good stuff. Now for the PICS

Health Weekend 1.2

So the weekend is over and I must say my treatment during it was great. I used Dr. Miracle's Deep Conditioner and it was FANTASTIC!! The tingle was soothing, and when I placed the heating cap on my head I could definitely feel the warmth. I washed it out after about 45min... and my hair was incredibly manageable and clean. I could feel my hair rejoicing! It's usually very hard to get a comb through my hair but after this process it was a breeze to comb and braid it down!

The Next day I used the hot oil treatment. I've never had this before so my experience was 'meh' Boiled water, let it sit, dropped the tub in and then applied it to my hair. I do believe I needed two tubes because my hair didn't seem like it was completely saturated with the oil. I left it in for three hours (above the rec' time) and then washed it. It felt a bit... dry like? Which was different, I feel like if I applied more oil it would have worked better. Overall though I'm happy for my hair over the weekend, and continue to keep it moisturized with natural oils!

King Size Barbie Brown Circle Lens Review

Photobucket
 Okay, so I've actually had these particular lenses for about two months. they were my first pair! (woot) from the fantastic site of pinkyparadise.com The site provided adorable lookign animal cases for these which sucked me into buyning (along with their great track record)

These are really nice lenses! Extreeemly comfortable these are great starter lenses for someone that is not too sure about circle lenses. They are not too big not too in your face, but has just enough wow. The pattern isn't 'natural' up close, and is very muted on dark brown eyes, more so than what you'll see on the models. It is still a very nice lens to wear to school and wont be distracting. These are 'King Size' I've seen these look huge on some people, and on me they look almost normal.

From what I saw on the models, I was dissapointed in color and size, but that's understandable because things are photo shopped and other's eye shapes are different.

Overall I recommend these for comfort and first time circle lens users, but not so much for  adrastic color change


(In Sunlight. Inside they'll mostly look Black with a highlight of brown)

Hair Health Weekend

So after yeaaaars of not taking care of my natural hair, I've decided I want to give it the royal treatment and tender lovin' care it deserves~ I've never had a relaxer in my life, my mom told me I could get one when I could take care of it myself (because she didn't want me blaming her if my hair fell out... which I would have XD) Now that I'm 'responsible' I don't want to get one! My hair though has always been pretty long but not so healthy. I never wrapped it or covered it before bed, and washed it only at the salon every two weeks (when I was at home) When I got to college, I didn't have the money to go every two weeks... I'd be lucky if i went once a month. And so my hair began to feel the effects of not being taken care of . Three years later I want a change.

I've been keeps my hair in protective styles *braids under wigs) for about 5-6 months, and only placed a flat ironed on it once since then (which you can see in the pics below in the front of my hair) Surprisingly my hair grew about 2 inches!   So this weekend, I'm doing a Deep Conditioning treatment with Dr Miracle's Tingling pack, and a Hot oil Treatment the day after. Hopefully My hair will be softer, and healthier. Never tried either of these before so it'll be interesting~ I've heard through the grape vines how grease is bad for the hair because of the mineral oils and petroleum but that's all I've ever used up until the last two years because that was one of the only ways to get my hair to have that 'relaxed look'. Now... time for a change, a good one I hope!

New circle lenses. XCK-105's

Brand: GEO
Style: XCK-105/ Ultra CK-105
Website: My candy Eyes.com

My new circle lenses finally arrived! I have to admit, it's not like I was overly joyed in expectations of these. First they were GEO (which is not the most comfortable brand for some) and they would be H-Y-U-G-E! which I didn't know what to expect. I have to say though, I'm pretty pleasantly surprised!
Photobucket
They're not as big as I thought they would be, and when I first saw them in the vials I thought I got the wrong ones (ck-105/14mm) but once they're on your finger, there's no mistaking it, and especially when they're in your eyes!

Photobucket

A very big difference you can see! Best enlargement so far of circle lenses and not just an 'effect' of a random diameter! very big and dolly, super cute. Love Love Love! ... only one problem...

BLURRY!!!

I don't know if it's because of the manufacturing or the lens size/color or what! My right eye though gets some blur action. Not enough to impair driving at daytime, but at night there are a ton of light halos from different street lights and signs, and near impossible to read road signs. These would probably be harder to wear in class because I have to focus so much on writing, and there's an obvious focus problem on these. Despite that, they are still my favorites, I just wish they weren't so blurry, it seems the prescription is off, though it was correct on the sticker D:. Comfort wise it's great. First time putting them in was a bit 'ergh' but the next day they were perfect. Size and color is also great <3 Blends fantastically with dark eyes. Overall I'd highly recommend these for Dark eyes since the pupil hole is wide and would show lighter colors in a dramatic fashion. Photobucket

I did purchase these from MCE and only found out afterward the large amount of complaints about them. These lenses did come in ten days (which is still a bit long when they're in the U.S.) but shipping was free and the lenses were cheap. $15 I can only go off based on my experience and they were good in service. perhaps they are learning from their mistakes? Can only hope.

~ Big Bang New Music Video! Beautiful Hangover~

I have to say, they look pretty scrumptious to me in this, and I really love the theme of the song and the video! Seems to be a lot of diagreeing with Daesung's hair but to me it looks fantastic. Definitely has that 'Run your fingers through it' look, and who could deny that request?! lol An' I can give nothing but love for G-Dragon's nerd glasses. Who ever said nerds aren't hot? I've just started following them (by way of G-Dragon) and I must say I'm not regretting it one bit. The girl seems Eurasian or at least a third asian? This is different and nice and is continually to touch a broader audience with different views of beauty
