LENSE~HAUL~TUTORIALS~OH MY! (Pics++)

Hihi!

---

I know it's been a few days. Working and such.. But before I get to the actual post I just wanna give a heads up on the up-coming tutorial categorys I have thus far...

Post 1

  • Make
Post 2
  • Contour
Post 3
  • Blush
Post 4
  • Foundation
Post 5
  • Hair
Post 6
  • Nails
Post 7
  • Exercise
Now I'm breaking these up into 7 posts due to the amount of contents. I have a good amount so far but I'd like to build on this tutorial collection for you all.

Why am I building this tutorial haven? I think tutorials are -VERY- important. I'm trying to provide a large amount of varriety from styles, skill lvl, as well as eye shape. Not all the tutorials I have thus far have lower lashes as part of the tutorial or sometimes no lashes at all! I've come across a few with little to NO contouring.

Basically saying It;'s one of the best tools you can have... and you can never have too many. There's such a varriety of styles and techniques.  I've learned tons from them and still learning more.. I understand a lot I just don't have the skill to use it. :,(

---

I recieved my lenses in the mail today! I've offically started the 2-day soaking period!

I got them in New Adult Green from  PinkyParadise..! So very excited!

Blue piggie lense case~ And a Dariya hair magic sheet!

Soak em' for 2 days, right?!

Now, I did try this. No pics, late wrk night..Huhu
It does what it says (keeps hairs, bangs, fringe out of your face when applying make/washing face, etc) but when I took it off it made that section a fuzz-ball. D: I'll take a pic another timeee~~

---

I alos went to Sephora in search of a new cheek blush to soon-replace my CANMAKE cream cheek...

I purchaced URBAN DECAY AFTERGLOW IN QUICKIE

THE RESULTS::


First off I was going to get MAKEUP FOREVER IN 6. Very close match but when I saw UD in Quickie I knew which one I wanted.

It's not a match, by any means. But the lack of shimmer excites me. Maybe it's time for a change. :P


This is me wearing it after a 12 hour day. But it's such a pretty colour~~
Please excuse to heart-face boyfriend. Goofy face is goofy.

I have been looking for this for over a month. I find it at The Christmas Tree Shoppe--ON SALE?

My Thoughts:
Sad it have no top/cover.
Lives up to everything good you'll read about it.

What I Use It On:

Now, aside from this brush I use a blush brush. I don't press hard. Just putting it out there that this is already crumbling apart at the edges. GREAT PRODUCT THOUGH! :(


Sephora: harajuku shower cap.. YAY. Wanted the Hello Kitty one ;<
Victorias Secret: Can we say 75% off sale? This is the only thing I got~ WOW.

I have opinons on the scent as of yet although I can say it's called LOVE ME. Not musky.

---

And some make/outfit.

I look SHORT ?(I am only 5'3) but Boo~Bear took this pic and he's taller then I so.. maybe bad choice. ;<


I did my hair in about 30 minuets with a straigtner. 410 heat and got2b flat iron spray. I used STYLETINI from Got2b to have it hold. Did I good job.

I've tried so many things to get volume at the top of my haed. Hair's heavy. I think I need BUMPITS. lol

Just something a lil'fuzzy.

GYARU HAIR TUTORIAL SPAM PART 1 20+ PICS

Hihi!

---

Here's the hair tutorial I spoke of. No duplicates I think. I tried to include long, medium, short as well as skill rance from simple to hard.

Please enjoy!


GYARU MAKEUP TUTORIAL SPAM PART 2--20+PIC!

Hihi!

---

So before I head off I'm going to be posting another assortmant of gyaru (style) make tutorials. I tried to include non-asian gyaru tutorials considring we all have different eye shapes and make looks diff on diff eye shapes.. :)

I'm also going to be doing a hairstyle tutorial post right after this one so stay tuned!

I apolagize NOW for any duplicates.

---

ENJOY!


Layout + Products + Pics Included

Hih~

---

First off, I'm sure it's obvious. I've make a new layout. I managed to get my hands on ADOBE:White Rabbit and I've been going crazy with it. I'm going to invest in a tablet and start doing oekakis again.. :) If some of you didn't know I'm an ARTIST. I haven;t done anything new so bear with me.  Haha

---

I invested in a few new products.

I'm almost out my my CANMAKE cream cheek (#03) so I was trying to find an alterniatve, Someone suggested Maybelliene Dream Mousee blush. I got it in PINK FORSTING. I like it.. as a base. It wasn't as noticable as CANMAKE cream cheek is... I like it to be a brighter pink. I'm most likley going to end up going to SEPHORA for TARTE cheek stain. Ughh~




I'm not too dissapointed considering I love they mousse products by Maybelliene.

Now if I did go the TARTE route not sure what colour to invest in. I'm best bringing my CANMAKE cream cheek with me and do swatches there. Ho hum~ Any suggestion on what would best match CANMAKE Cream Cheek #03?



---

Another product I invested in was Hard Candy SHEER ENVY primer (1.6oz)

I'm no one to do a review, I guess. I like the smell. Pea size amount goes a long way. Doesn't take long to dry. Skin feels softer after removal. I've only used it once so I can't give any other kind of input. I didn't go out nor leave the make on long so I can't really even say if it works, I guess. HAHA..

Going out~

Hihi!

---

So I had every intention of going out today. I did my make and hair, took pics (which you will see) and left to cash my check. I forgot it, came back to get it then cashed it.

My main thing today was a pedi. As I came home to change to go get my pedi I stubbed my toe bad-blood and everything! I'm obvisouly not getting a pedi anymore..

So sad.. I stayed home. :( All this make and hair wasted~~!

OH WELL!

Atleast I can show pics.. :3

I think angel is VERY dramatic for me.. they were a lot easier to put on. Possibly because I've been applying lashes daily.. heh

GYARU MAKE TUTORIAL SPAM! 30+ PICS!

Hihi~!

---

I tried doing the jum page READ MORE link but every thing I followed--including the BLOGSPOT guide did not help. I'M SORRY :(

Omg it worked!

---

So right now my main focus in getting my make to where it needs to be. As I said before.. you can buy clothing but you can't buy skill. I've spent the past few days with my BF and have had more time to explors the visual world of gyaru. I've come acorss many tutorials. Some hair but mostly make. I didn't save many hair ones due to my hair not being long enough to do much with.
---

Bear in mind many of these are scanned by other bloggers who have scanned and provided these such as A Little Bit Of Eki (Full magazine scans provided via link). Otheres are from Ricoche.net and an assortmant ot other sites. I've been collecting them for a bit now so I do apolagize if I can not recall where I have acquired these from. TT_TT

I hope you enjoy! I will be sure to put these to use for myself! :D


Mine you they are generaly in order; may be a bit backwords. A hair tutorial is mixed in as well as a fewpages for nails~

Some problems..

Hihi!

---

I really need advice. :(

I'm coming into some problems..

Lashes-I've noticed my lid--near my lash is getting irritatated. The ends of the fake lashes are causind the irritation it it's quite painful.  They're like, pressing into my skin and it's getting raw. Is there any way to avoid this?

Lenses-I want pink/violet/gray. I want 14.0mm. But I don't want to cover my eyes, I want something a big bigger. Does 14.0mm do that or is that normal iris size? And if I buy mutiple lenses I need to invest in mutiple cases to hold them in, correct? Is there a better brand of lenses? Plus I want a pair that'll have a 1yr lifespan.

Ohh~~ I don't know what I'm doing. :(( I just threw myself into a pool of lenses and I don't wanna screw myself. I have no knowlage in lenses.....
