Through Thick and Thin: Yanqina Liquid Eyeliner Review

Hello lovely people! :D Today's review is of a product that's really blown me away! I've never used a liner in pen form. *shoots self* I always go with the old school brush types, gel or felt tip ones. So when Lee Lee from UNIQSO sent me the Yanqina liquid liner to try, I was very curious!
The Yanqina liquid liner is a product of Japan (so you KNOW it's good!) It costs $5.90 on UNIQSO!
Oh yes, thanks UNIQSO for sending this to me along with the lenses I reviewed on Friday.


Price: 
$5.90 (Rs. 318) for 2.5g. That's a good price I think! ^_^ Much cheaper than store brands! 

Packaging:
I didn't get any outer box with the pen, the pen is a pretty black and red with cute graphics and a bit of Engrish on it. Lol! Nice and light, easy to carry in the bag and the lid fits snug, so no chance of accidents! The nib is perfect for thick or thin lines! :D 

Damn focus! Nib! :)

36H? Hours? I don't think so. >.> Why would you want something to last that long anyway?!


Engrish! Lol! Waterproof Lash Eyeliner Pencil... I don't even..
Colour: 
The colour is nice and deep! One swipe gets you almost opaque colour and I love that it has a almost shiny finish. Not quite matte, not quite shiny. Perfect! Swipe it twice and you have a great solid black!

Lasting Power:
This stuff lasts for ages even on my oily lids, although after a day of wearing it, it faded a bit but quite evenly! And absolutely no transfer on my lids. It is waterproof but not if you rub it after washing. :/ Just pat dry if you want it to last! Don't rub!

Swatches:
You can see how much thin/ thick control you get with this liner!

Overall:
Yanqina is an amazing liner! I would buy it again, if not for me, for my sister! She managed to use this with ease for someone who is just awkward with makeup, that is amazing! I only wish that it was a tad more long lasting but overall it does a great job! Awesome for detailed work and beginners. ^_^

Circle Lens Review: I.Fairy Jewel Blue

Ah, it's been a long time since I did a circle lens review! Okay no, it hasn't but it does feel like it! Lol! Anyway, the lenses I'm reviewing today are quite outside my comfort zone but I'm glad I picked them! The lenses I'm reviewing are the I.Fairy Jewel series in Blue!
They were sponsored by the very awesome UNIQSO!
Thanks UNIQSO! >3<


So far I've tried Geo the most and I wanted to try a new brand that's why I went for I.Fairy. They have really creative and crazy designs! This one is one of the tamer ones. ;)
Anyway, on to the review!~


Brand:  I.Fairy (SUNnBON)
Water content: 42% 
Diameter: 16.2 mm
Base curve: 8.6 mm
Prescription available:  0 to -7.00
Expiry:1 year disposable (3 years if unopened)
Place of Origin: Korea

The Jewel series comes in 6 colours including pink! :D 

So, this time the post was kind to me and I got my lenses in a week! Yay! I opened it all up and saw, Uniqso has new packaging! It is super cute but I loved the old one too! ^u^

Now they also provide a q tip to fish out your lenses from the vial!


The Korean says Mi-in. I wonder if that's the Korean name. (It means  Belle/ Beauty.)


Authentication baby!

One in, one out, no makeup! Holy super wonky eyes Batman!
 Design: ♥♥♥♥
I am in love with the design! The edge of the lenses looks serrated and this really softens the effect of the huge size! The colour is so obvious! I've never worn normal blue lenses that were so bright! In natural light they look the best. They look normal yet claim attention! The only issue I have with the design is that it ends too abruptly in the center. So sometimes you get a "chameleon eye" effect. Luckily it isn't too noticeable!

Comfort: ♥♥♥ 
The comfort I would say is okay for these lenses. The water percentage is a whopping 42% but the first time I wore them my eyes felt tired really easily! The second time was much more comfortable. They weren't like my previous lenses that felt comfy as soon as I wore them but they were easy to get used to. I got 6 good hours of comfy wear from them. I think it is because there is a lot of pigment in them that they made my eyes tired easily.

Enlargement: ♥♥♥♥ 
The enlargement for me was just right with these lenses! They were not too big or doll like, and surprisingly natural for 16.2 mm effect lenses!

Overall:
I love the bright colour, I love the size and how they look! I find them awesome to wear with my glasses (see pics), they make my eyes stand out without looking unnatural! Here are some pics to show you how they look!



I especially love how they look with my glasses! I will be reviewing the glasses soon too btw!

Tutorial: Sexy Anime Eyes

Huhuhuhuuuu... A tutorial after sooo long huh? I have almost forgotten how to make one. ;__ ; But I really had to do this one! It was a request by the lovely Coral Crue! And I had left it hanging for so long! She must hate me! PLEAZ NUN HATE ME CORAL! ;A;

10 points for guessing whose eye that is! Clue: It's not a female character.:P


I actually didn't know what to call this look, gyaru has more lashes and Ulzzang not quite enough makeup. A lot of people especially on Facebook told me how Anime like my eyes looked when I wore this make up in a photo. So I decided to go with the flow! LOL! Anyway, here's the tutorial! ♥

Step 1: Put on circle lenses! It won't matter very much but they add a lot of oomph to your look. Especially if you're doing a look like this. I've put a comparison picture at the end to show you the difference in how they look.
I'm wearing Beuberry Kitten Eyes below. I bought them from Uniqso. ^-^ I'll do a review soon!


Step 2: Use a brown shimmery shade to highlight the outer third of your eyelid. Don't go beyond the eyebrow or crease. I used L'Oreal Infallible eyeshadow in Burning Black.


Step 3: On the majority of the center eyelid, use a shimmery shadow of your choice. Blend into the outer colour. I like gold or copper but here I'm using a coral gold colour. ^-^


Step 4: Using the same shadows of the upper lid, line the lower lid. Make sure the brown shadow in the corner doesn't curve with the lower lash line, keep it straight and let it meet the shadow on the upper lid.


Step 5: Use a shimmery light beige shadow and use it all overthe inner lids, both upper and lower, take it quite low from the lower lid. It adds a contour to the eyes.


Step 6: Use a gel liner or liquid liner and line the upper lash line. Start thin on the inside and thicker on the outside. Don't wing it up too much.


Step 7: Use the liner and draw a very angular thick liner on the outer third of the lower lid. Join it to the upper liner. You can already see the angles forming because of the straight lines. :)


Step 8: Joining the line you just drew, line the center of the waterline only. Then just line the very inner corner of the waterline. for a more innocent look, keave the inner corner and do only the center.


Step 9: This step is all lashes and mascara. i don't have lashes to wear so I use a lot of mascara. After curling my lashes, I put 2 coats of curling mascara and two coats of volumising to get the effect below. Lashes definitely add a lot to the look but I no has. >.<

And that's it! That's how you get angular and long anime eyes. ^-^

Here are pictures to show you the difference between no lenses and lenses with this look. Sorry about the flash used, I was doing this at night. X( The circle lenses definitely add the anime touch right? Lol!
I hope you enjoyed that tutorial and get to use it, especially for cosplay and costume parties! Thanks for reading!

Circle Lens Review: GEO Xtra - WCO244 Brown (a.k.a Burst Series)

Hey everyone! I have another circle lens review for you. I'm telling you I am in love with circle lenses and these are definitely becoming one of my faves! I have so many pics of these, so your internet connection might hate me! LOL! But this review was a lot of fun to do.


Also, please don't hate on me for the Photoshop, I had a little fun. ;) 
These lenses are GEO Xtra - WCO244 Brown (a.k.a Burst Series) and they were very sweetly sponsored by Uniqso! 
Thank you Uniqso! >3< ♥


stock image

Brand: Geo Medical
Water content: 38% 
Diameter: 15 mm
Base curve: 8.6 mm
Prescription available: Plano Only
Expiry:1 year disposable (3 years if unopened)
Place of Origin: Korea

These lenses had a trip around the world, it seems because they took a whole month to get to me! I've purchased from Uniqso before and it only took a week.Lord knows what happened here!LOL! 
Lee Lee, the owner of Uniqso, is very sweet and was all ready to send out another pair before my tracking number magically updated. ^-^


The package arrived safely but was beaten up. Luckily everything inside was in pristine condition. The packaging of Uniqso is the cutest I have ever seen! Just adorable! ♥ You get a lens case and the lenses come in this cute bear box. ^-^


I love how all the bears have names and jobs! :D


*drumroll*


Like with all GEO lenses, these came with a scratch off authentication code, so you know what you're buying, is the real deal!


On to the review!

In the case

One in and one out (wonky eyes! LOL!)

Design: ♥♥♥♥
The design of these lenses is very simple but effective. The colour practically merges into my eye colour, unless flash is used. But what really makes these lenses interesting is the "burst" pattern on the limbal ring. Hence the name... 
The black ring gives these lenses a lot of enlargement and being 15 mm anyway, they look HUGE! The pattern adds a lot of depth to the eyes. I suggest that if you want to buy these lenses, go for the same colour as your eyes, they really enhance them and give a dolly like effect. ^u^
I give it 4 stars because without makeup I look coked up. >_< Makeup is a must with these babies!

Comfort: ♥♥♥♥
The comfort was good! I wore them for 5-6 hours without problems, after that my eyes got a bit dry and blurry bu nothing eye drops can't fix. They're very thin so you don't feel them! They tend to collapse on themselves when you wear them, so that can be a bit awkward but no real problems at all. :D

Enlargement: ♥♥♥♥
The enlargement on these things is INSANE! My eyes look mega huge and doll like. Plus the depth they add, adds to the enlargement effect.

Overall:
I LOVE THEM! :D My sister kept making fun of me because of how big they looked, so at first I was afraid to wear them out doors. But with some makeup, they look stunning! Even my boyfriend complimented me saying, even though they look a bit unnatural, they're really pretty! Maybe a bit too much enlargement for me, but I'll get used to it. ^-^

Here are some pictures I took with them on. I love how they instantly make me FEEL cuter and all innocent like, which is not usually me! All CLs do that to me! >.< These make my eyes look all sparkly! NO PHOTOSHOP on the lenses! Pinky swear! 
 Me so KAWAII! LOL!


I love my Apple ring. >w<


If you're wondering why all my background is blacked out, you can see in the next picture, why. Look at the mess on my bed!!! GAH! T^T
I can has duckface? LOL!
Messy room is messy. Ignore it with duckface.


Shhh... This is my secret...

LOL! I just had too! After seeing the logo and the motto, I HAD to take this pic! :D It is just so APT and girly! >w<

If you want to buy circle lenses, head on over to Uniqso! I promise you great customer service and variety. I especially love how fair their Returns and exchange policy is! ^-^  Besides they have a lot of offers going on especially on Geo Xtra because it's their anniversary! Woohoo!
To buy the lenses I'm wearing go HERE.


I hope you enjoyed my review and that I didn't kill you with all the weird cuteness! :3
In other news: My hair is back to pink, I like it better this way! What do you think? 
And I have soooo many tutorials to do! GAH! *shoots self* I hope you will forgive me for my lateness! Especially Coral Crue, she's asked me for a few that I haven't gotten to. :( I feel bad! But I'll do them as soon as I can! PROMISE! ^-^


*sponsored post: Lenses were sent to me for review. I was not given any monetary compensation and this review is completely my honest opinion.
