Review: GEO Grang Grang Choco HC-246

Hello! Been a long time since I last posted ANYTHING... oooppsyy..

First post of 2013 will be a circle lenses review. I've actually been meaning to do a review on these lenses for a while since I got them in the summer of 2012... ^-^;
Oh and FYI, I have brown eyes and wear Plano lenses~

Intro:


I bought these from iwantcute, the seller is UK based so it's pretty fast at delivering! I'm very pleased they arrived so fast :)

The Review:
These lenses are 14.2mm, 1 year disposable.



As they are circle lenses, it makes my eyes look bigger, doll like and more animated (and fake lol). Sorry I don't have a better photo... lenses expired now and I can't take a new photo ahahah ._.
My boyfriends opinion on these is that he hates them because it makes me look soulless

Comfort rating: ★★★★★
5/5 because they feel like nothing! Very comfortable to wear, although it does get uncomfortable if you're sitting near a fan because it's drying up your eyes.. but that's with all lenses.. lol

Verdict:
These lenses are good for those that want a more natural look (basing on people with brown eyes like myself). It's less "soulless" looking compared to a black circle lense because of the added brown colour, it just defines the brown even more on my eyes, which is a plus.

Would I purchase these again? Yes I would, but right now, I want to try loads of different types and colours of lenses so I will not be re-purchasing them again any time soon!

New Lip Balms!

Today I went out to the high street to pick up some stuff to bring with me to uni in a few weeks.
Then I came across these new lip balms by Maybelline - BABY LIPS
 

I got these from Boots, as they were also on offer for 3 for 2, priced at £2.99.
I picked up all three as the Blue Hydrate one has SPF 20 and is a clear lip balm.
The Orange one is Cherry Me, and is a red colour, the scent is a gorgeous sweet cherry!
The Pink one is Pink Punch that looks like a florescent pink, and smells like strawberry bubble gum, not the overly strong scent! 


Here are swatches of Pink Punch (left) and Cherry Me (right)
As you can see, it gives a very light tint of colour, perfect for a more natural look.
 
I have applied the Blue Hydrate one to my lips, and I already feel that it is moisturizing. More than Carmex, which I feel dries my lips after a while. 
 
I actually really like these lip balms, and since I have three, they will last me quite a while before I need to repurchase them :)

Best eyelash glue?

Using false eyelashes used to be a turn off for me simply because every time I attempted to stick them on, it would peel off or half hang at some point during the day after application. Not good!

I realized it was the glue that was not working for me, the glue i first used is Eyelure lashfix strip lash adhesive:
Since these were the only ones selling in places like boots and superdrug, along with their eyelashes which comes with a mini bottle of lash glue. My first false lashes were from this brand.

I do not like this glue. It isn't sticky enough to last for a night out, or even during the day. The applicator is also quite big so it will leave massive blotches on the lash strip.

Product Review:
★☆☆☆☆

Now onto the next one:
THIS IS THE ONE. I love this lash glue, because of it's precision brush it is much easier to apply glue to the lash strip with no mess. My lashes stay on all day and night with no peeling from the sides! Perfect right?
The only problem I have with this lash glue is that it kind of clumped up inside? I'm not sure if this happened because I brought it with me to Vietnam and the change of climate messed with it (because my mum previously brought back a barry M nail varnish which went clumpy in Vietnam).

But that aside, this is still the best lash glue, one that I will be re-purchasing soon.

I would also like to note that I have only seen this available in Asda. I have tried looking for this in Boots, Superdrugs and Savers, with no luck in finding them there.

Review: Etude House Panda Peach Hand Cream



My friend got me this cute Etude hand cream about 2 years ago now, I've only started using it this year because with me, I don't like using cute stuff!

In the end I popped this hand cream into my handbag to carry around.

It smells very nice, like peaches (of course). It is a sweet cute smell which matches the product packaging very well. Cute little pot~

Leaves hands soft and nice smelling.

Review: Rice Water Bright Lip & Eye Remover

I got this product when I went to Vietnam as I needed a eye makeup remover, and this one is a Natural brightening solution with rice water (how Asian). Seeing that I have dark under eye circles, I'm hoping this will help to lighten them up? .___.

It removes eye makeup really well, even waterproof eyeliner and mascara! I really love this product, it has a nice smell, like roses, a very pretty smell. I only got one bottle though.. would definitely buy this again
