Pink hair!

It's a popular opinion that both blond and brown look good on me. However, after switching my hair color from blond to dark brown for the past 6 years I got really bored of it. For real, here's a timeline of 2011:

January-March: Blond

April - May: Dark brown

June - July: Brown

August - Sept: Blond

Oct: Dark brown again.

So yes, it still got boring.

Anyway, I've always thought pink hair looks good. 5 years ago I loved Audrey Kitching's hair and now I love Xiaxue's hair. :D However, until a month ago I never thought that I would dye my own hair that color. 

But if you know me, then you would know, that I'm exactly the type of person who would do something like that, just to get attention.

One day a guy I know told me he dyed his hair neon blue. And another friend told me what he wanted to do with his hair. And I started to think that.... I'm 18 years old, soon I'll be 27 and have a family and I'll never have a change to look like a pink haired doll again. So the same day I arranged everything. 

Helena bleached my hair. 

Sander got me a pink hair dye, but it didn't work since I originally wanted pastel pink hair. Then realized it's impossible unless my hair is white first. I wonder if it would have worked if I had asked him to get neon pink.

Anyway, here's a short video before we started bleaching and dyeing my hair: 

I don't actually have any pictures of what my hair looked like after that, but at least my roots looked really cute pastel pink! :'D 

It was still very nice of him to get me a color they don't sell in Pärnu :)

Tuesday at school, me and Kiku decided that I have to go to hair salon right away, and we did that. 

She, of course, was with me the whole time because it was too exciting. And obviously she took a lot of photos:

I was quite demanding customer. But they did their job well, mixing different hair dyes to get the exact color i wanted. I gave up on pastel pink for now as I wasn't interested in bleaching my hair some more.

And the final result:

It cost me 32€ and lots more in total as I used 2 bleaches and 2 colors before going to salon. Can't belive I spent that much on hair! What can I say, pink hair is tricky business.

It's my second day with this hair and I must say I love it! Even tho, it's a little hard to match it with something. But I'll manage...somehow. :)

LensVillage Geo Princess Mimi aka Bambi Lens Chocolate review

Today I'm reviewing lenses from the famous Bambi Series (Now called Geo Princess Mimi series). 

 I got them from www.lensvillage.com

Look at the cute lens case and package they arrived in!

LensVillage is an online store selling a great selection of circle lenses. I love how they have categorized their lenses to so many different colors such as hazel, honey, aqua, gold etc. So it is easier to find and compare the color you are looking for. (Most of the shops just use brown and blue, etc.)

Just like everything else advertised by Masuwaka Tsubasa,  the series gained great popularity. Who wouldn't want to look like her, wear something she does or use the same hair dye. She is an idol to whole gyaru community and even to people beyond that style.

So this could be the reason this is my second pair of circle lenses she has advertised. (First were angel wing, you remember those, right?)

When I pick out circle lenses I always try to choose the ones that would blend in better. From the picture it seemed like this one doesn't end too sharply. Changing color in the middle and all.

 Size: 15.0 mm

Color: Chocolate

Style: Geo Princess Mimi aka Bambi Lens

Lifetime: Up to 1 year

Water Content: 38~42%

In the lens case: (the right one is upside down just for comparison)

And this is how they look in my eyes!

Natural light

 

 With flash

Comparison

Design: 5/5

I especially love the dark limbal ring on the outer part and how it fades naturally into my blue eyes. Also despite being 15.0mm they look a lot bigger, don't you think? :)

Color:5/5

So far these are the most brown looking lenses I've ever had! Most of brown lenses make my eyes look rather yellowish or green. I don't mind, but I'm happy to finally own a pair that looks so dark! It's similar to what black lenses look like, however, it 's far more natural.

Comfort: 4/5

For 15mm lenses these are extremely comfortable to put in. Though, I do occasionally feel that one of them is out of place. The bigger the lenses the more they dry your eyes and reduce oxygen supply to your eyes so it's kinda natural. However, I've had slightly more comfortable lenses.

Overall: 4.5/5

I think these lenses almost manage to give Caucasian eyes brown eyed look! I want to thank LensVillage for sending me these lenses, I really like them!

Close-up:

Full face view:

I really love how dark my eyes look here!

Doing more reviews soon! However, I'll probably post something not circle lens related in between. Anyway stay tuned & thank you for reading! :) ♥

About circle lenses [In Estonian]

 
The washing machine was working so you can hear it in the background lol.

In fact, I know that a lot of my followers wear circle lenses! So even if you can't understand the video feel free to post your favourite link where you get your circle lenses from! :)

[FOTD] Green eyes + purple eyeshadow.

Hello everybody! ヾ(＠°▽°＠)ﾉ This is my first time making fotd post. Trying out lots of new things lately, aren't I :)

I figured since I have so many different circle lenses, (probably all colors?) then it would be fun to match them with different eyeshadows.

The lenses I used for today's FOTD look are brought to you by my dear sponsors :

Go check them out!

 Beuberry - Poppy Green 

They are 16.00mm which is quite large. But unlike some big lenses, they don't hurt my eyes when I put them on. :) And I've never had green lenses before, so thank you very much for sending me these! :)

I tried to combine green eyes with purple and pinkish eyeshadows as they are suggested to look best on green eyed people and make green eyes pop. I didn't actually use any pink eyeshadows rather browns with a hint of purple but the overall look is really pinkish purple looking.

This is how it turned out:

I really like how the lenses look and I've received many compliments from other people too. ^^ What do you think? Does green suit me?

The look is perfect for going out. And yesterday I was wearing it to my friend's 18th birthday! Yayy~~

Another thing I want to try with these lenses is red lips! :)

✿ What I used?? ✿

BASE:  

Bourjois Healthy Mix Serum gel foundation 51
Manhattan Clearface compact powder 70 vanilla
Flormar eyeshadow/highlighter

EYES:

Flormar eyeshadow/highlighter
Make Up Store Microshadow grape
Manhattan Mat Effect eyeshadow 95R
Flormar dipliner
Lioele real waterproof eyeliner pencil black 
Bodytalk false eyelashes

As for the lipstick and eyebrow pencil I have no idea where they come from. Probably Carlo di Roma.

Hair: Nothing new, I've become too lazy to think about it!

That's all! I hope you liked my first FOTD post. :) Would you like to see more in the future or some tutorials maybe?

If you have any questions regarding my lenses then feel free to ask! Also if you are planning to buy lenses of your own, don't forget to use the code uniqso.com has given to all my readers for -10% discount: LP10

A day in life 1.11.11 (Shopping, food, etc.)

Hello everyone!

Since I have free time now I'm going to share some stuff I bought yesterday and other photos I took. It might not be very useful if you aren't from Estonia, tho. :(

First there was school. Me and Kiku always buy our lunch from supermarket near school (Can you tell from the photo which shop it is? :D) and this week we decided (or actually she did) that we should stop buying chips, cookies, chocolate etc. This is what we bought instead:

1 apple and 1 banana costs around 0.40 € Healthy AND cheap.

Our next mission was to find me new boots. I already had an idea in mind but I always have such hard time deciding between 2 or 3 pairs so I'm glad she was there to help. :) 

The heel is actually quite high but it doesn't look like that on the pictures. :( Only on the picture above you can see it well. I also like the fact that this type of heels are really useful for Estonian winter.

And me wearing them:

I really wanted camel brown boots and now I have them! Yayy. Only to find out that I have nothing to wear them with. Lol. So suggest me outerwear I should buy! :)

I got them from a shop in Pärnu that sells really cheap shoes. And they cost only 26€. Which is weird because they certainly don't look like crappy cheap boots. But well...we'll see about their quality in some time. The lady working in the shop told me that all pairs I picked out only had the smallest sizes left! Lucky me for having small legs/being short. :D

Moving on, also bought other stuff: 

Bodytalk false eyelashes 1.85€ from Seppälä

Kiss Eyelusion false eyelashes 5.1€ from Ideaal

(Both have been tried out before <3)

Rimmel Extra Super Lash 2.5€ (WAS ON SALE! YAY!) from Ideaal. 

(Sister has the same mascara, lol.)

About the eyelashes, I'll show you how I wear them in another post. Adding other eyelashes I already own.

And my last achievement of the day was making chicken soup! The easiest healthy food I know and like: 

Oh well, this was quite random. I used to write like this all the time before, haha. What do you think of this kind of entries? ^^

By the way, I feel like I should change my blog design soon. So maybe that happens, we'll see.

Anyway, it's late so good night! ♪

[LiliesShop] Korean Make-up Review: Lioele eyeshadow & eyeliner

This is my first sponsored review of make-up products. I don't think false eyelashes count, haha.

Thank you so much LiliesShop.net for sending me those items to try out! :)

LiliesShop.net is an online store selling various Korean make-up products. They have a large selection of Lioele's products as well as other Korean cosmetic brands. I suggest you to check their selection out!

The package got from Canada to Estonia in 8 days. This has to be one of the fastest services (If not the fastest service) I've ever experienced!

The products are:

Lioele real waterproof eyeliner pencil (black)

which costs $12.60 (9€)

and

Lioele real color eyeshadow #04 Modern Brown 

which costs $8.5 (6,1€)

They also sent me 2 bb cream and 1 sun lotion sample! How nice! :)

As you can see the prices aren't too bad! They are pretty much the same as most drugstore prices. So why Lioele?

First thing is that even if the price is comparable to Maybelline (just an example) the design and quality of the products is far better! And look at the cute packages they arrived in!

Although written in bad English I really like the story on their web page. All of their products have a cute logo on them and are Cinderella themed. They also have lots of information about brand's history and development here.

But as nice as it seems you can never fully trust a text on company's web page. So I also did some googling and was pleased to read many good things about their products' quality as well. And I didn't have to be disappointed. The price asked for them on liliesshop.net is definitely a small amount to pay for such quality!

And do you know what else is really cool? That Korean idols use the same brand! :)

Let's start with the eyeshadow first:

#4 Modern Brown is a bestseller in Real Color Eyeshadow series. And it doesn't surprise me. Just look at that color:

It's a cold bronze brown which is great for daily use as it is one of the basic colors.

The eyeshadow itself is well-pigmented  yet shimmery and smooth in texture.

Swatches without eyeshadow primers in natural lightning:

Applied one, two and three times. You can see that there's only a small difference.

And me wearing the eyeshadow. It's not a good picture though. I might take some better photos with different lenses I just got. :)

Waterproof eyeliner:

Depending on a situation I love to use both - pencil and liquid eyeliner. Pencil eyeliner creates a more natural looking line while liquid liner is more noticeable.

I don't really have anything bad to say about this eyeliner! Some pencils can't be used on upper eye line since the smudge around eye crease, but this doesn't! :) Maybe the only minus is that it is slightly hard to remove.

Close-up:

Another cool thing is that it actually has a sharpener at the top! I'm not very good at using it though.

Waterproofness. After hitting the shower and soaking in bath for 30 minutes afterwards the eyeliner on my hand still looked the same! I was pretty amused actually.

How it looked like in the beginning:

Sorry about my lousy drawing! x_x

And later:

Different lightning and rubbed off one line

You can see that it's slightly duller but I think it did quite well for being in hot water for 30 minutes.

All in all, I definitely recommend giving Lioele's products a try. :) If you have used them before then tell me your opinion! Thank you so much for reading this review!
