EOS Ice Gray Circle Lens Review :3

Hi everyone ^_^

It's been a while since my last circle lens review, actually, I've been too busy to look into buying more lately :x So I bought these because last time, I got the Ice Browns, and I LOVED THE DESIGN! Too bad it I accidently ripped it :( I decided to try the gray ones this time :)

If you don't know already, I love grays. I think they compliment many different outfits and makeup look :)

I ordered mines from Maplelens.com. The sent me one to review from before, and I really do like their service and products that I went back ^_^



Hehe, lenses came in their very own made packaging that's eco friendly with a thank you note~



And of course, lens case to put them in so that you can soak them up right away :3



My first impression? OMG LOVE IT! :D It is definitely "icey" looking but somehow somewhat natural looking. Its nothing that would give a extreme impression like "holy crap your contact lenses" but rather "Ouuu, your eyes so purdy" :p

So here is a close up of the lenses in my eye with flash~



And here is a close up without the flash~



The side halo affects are awesome on these lenses. My fav gray was the GEO Nudy gray for that true gray, sparkle, and halo affect, but I think these are my new favorite grays now.



If you're looking for a englargement that looks 'natural', I'd say these does a pretty good job IN person lol If you look at my photo above, yeah it's quite exaggerated hahaha You know them kawaii Asians and their poses. :p

OH!! This is random..but I'm wearing a wig! (I hope it was pretty obvious that my hair cannot grow that fast lol) But yeah, cheap ass wig from ebay but it's quality is god sent! Could be god sent who knows! I love how soft it is. So easy to tame and put on and it looks natural and not all synthetic looking lol Omg, off track and starting a review of my wig wtf. Sorry lol

ANYWAYS, more camwhore photos of me with the wig, contacts, and oversized glasses!!







As for COMFORT, EOS brands are usually super comfortable for me. However, I know a few that has problems with itching and whatnot from EOS, just as I do for GEO brands, but they are perfectly fine for me. They are comfortable for me, not super though. I can occasionally feel it moving around my eye, I'm sure it's because of the size.

Here's another photo from the day before when I tried it out for the first time. Check out that halllloooooooo!! <3 :3



So yeah! Overall, these are my Newwwwwwwwww fav :D ^_______^ These are pretty popular now too lol If you want to check them out, here's the link! http://www.maplelens.com/eos-ice-grey/

I hope you enjoyed this review!! Thanks for reading :D

Bye ^3^

Illinois Trip! Mitsuwa, Friends, Driving, Japanesey things!

Ohayougozaimasu ! :3 

OH OKAY! ~

So it's been half a week of spring break for me so far. I haven't planned to do much, but on my top list is to definitely spend time and do things with my lovey because he's leaving this Monday to Nagasaki Japan for a semester of school :( So that's 4 months D: I know, some have it worst, but it's not wrong for me to incredibly miss the love of my life or else something would be wrong with me in this relationship lmao Also, it's not like I've never been in a long distance relationship for those who forgets and keep preaching to me about it =___="

Anyways! With that said, I demanded that we do something a bit more extravagant (sorta not really lol). I just wanted out from my state and everyone there too.  Illinois worked since it was close enough, not too far, plus I haven't been there since ACEN, (Anime Central) which was about 2 years ago. Cody mentioned Mitsuwa, a Japanese Market place and yes of course I want to go!! His friend Adverse, who we later met up to pick up an order Cody made from him, texted "Why are you going to fake Japan when you're going to REAL Japan in less than a week?!" lol I guess, but hey...it was that or doing nothing! Hahaha

Soooo! The first thing set up in front of the entrance in Mitsuwa, were tables of MAGAZINES and some MANGAS! Foe lyke a dolla mannnnnnnn! I was like wtf and started scrambling through them all like a squirrel. At that point...I just grabbed what I saw appealing since it really was just a dollar each. They were recent magazines too just a few months old like from December and November issues in 2012. New and errthang.


I Had to get the beauty magazines, no duh, and of course my Jrock <3














There was also a small Kamisama Hajimemashita calendar in the manga yay! Cody got a few, like a cosplay one  that'll be in my hands soon to watch over when he's in Japan lol So yeah, I feel like I stole these cause they were so cheap! I would've gotten more but the rest of them weren't so cool lookin...maybe next time they'll have more :3


They sold food and stuff, pretty much they were like a Japanese Target lol Although I am Asian, I'm an American, and foreign things fascinates me no matter how Asian my blood is lol I'm saying this because CHECK OUT THESE PADS N BATH STUFF IN JAPANESE!







Holy shittzzz. Okay I'm exaggerating a little bit. But seriously, I am a fucking sucker for anything cute. I walked down the aisle for kitchen cleaning and stuff, their packaging were so damn cute I'd like BUY the hell out of it LMAO They could easily sell off of me ;-; In a way, I'm glad I don't live near there lol


The best part was, they had dolly wink and other drugstore makeup from Japan here! I was just happy I saw it being retailed in an actual store and not online where I did all of my Asian shopping. I didn't buy them, just cause I could still get it cheaper somewhere online haha







OH, and they also have Palty hair dye. I guess THESE would be the reason for me to live close so I could just get hair dye stuff I wanted in a flash when I need it lol


Pretty neat they had a Shiseido counter too AND BB Cream from Asia. Lol told you so, I was just really stroked that I'm seeing this in person haha.



Bought a few snacks and then ate at the cafe area. Found this guy! hehe




Caught Cody off guard. lol 


<33333333

After about an hour and a half at Mitsuwa, we headed over to his friend Adverse's 'den'. He owns KWOC (Kings Without Crowns) which is quite a brand for Breakers, such as my bf. His stuff is pretttttttttttttttty DOPE. Love his style. He prints all the stuff himself and runs it himself. This guy is what's up when it comes to WORK HARD. *clap clap* Since you read this far, how about checking him out yeah? ;) http://www.killkwoc.com






Like dayumm cool stuff yo :O

After that we went to Chinatown. I've been there a few times, but I was younger so I don't really remember. It was just like...a Chinese...town lol Cody been to China before, said the smell was quite similiar haha. Somehow I didn't remember to get much photos here. Too busy running in and out of each and every store on the block. We did find this romantic chain! "Always love you until the forever love" <333 lolololol



I also bought myself a Fruit Tart ^__^ Cody got a Coconut Tart which was ubbbbber yummy...but he ate it before I could take a photo lol



Then some pics of us goofying around. Well, ME, goofing around. Occasionally he's been occupied with this new game of his, Jurassic Park haha He never play games on his phone, nor download anything but this one got him GOOOOOOOD. 








We were on our way to go see the egg thingy, CLOUD GATE. But man, downtown is not like from where I came from. It's fucken crazy downtown in Chicago lol So we just drove around it haha We were on our way to pick up his friend John (bby name J Funky) to go back to our city to visit his gf. 




Got home and chilled a bit as we watch fucken Ruselle Peters. HAHAHA That guy, is fucken hilarious. I'm probably gonna show my parents one of his clips haha But yep...and ate our snacks we bought from Mitsuwa like fatties once again! I'm gonna miss being a fattie with him and watching shit ton of movies, anime, and comedies lol





SO YEAHHHH, it was good day. We needed this since we never really went out out with just us two, sorta. lol


And just cause I wouldn't know where to post these pics, here! Earlier TODAY before work at school lol






<3333333333333

I'm planning on a trip to Japan myself the last two weeks Cody will be there. So I'm going to be cheap as hell and save save save. It'll be worth it. I'm gonna LOVE it there! I also can't wait for next semester when I start Japanese. I've been dreaming of this for 2 years now before college even started @_@ So many of our friends are planning to visit Japan sometime this summer too!! Trying to get them all to go near the end of July so we could all hang out together in Japan lol EEEEEEEEEK!!! I can't wait! I hope everything will go smoothly til then!!!! *CROSSES FINGERS*!!

OKAY! ^___^ Well, Thanks for reading! I'll make sure there are more adventures to share with you guys this summer before the BIG JAPAN adventure. ^___^ I can't wait to live more of life.

PURPLE HAIR!!!!!!!!!! (SPLAT HAIR DYE REVIEW!!)

HI!! :D So previously I made a quick post about how I chopped my hair off without any feels given. I wanted to dye my hair purple for a while, even if I had long hair, but now that my hair is short, it's much easier AND I would use less hair dye, saving MONAYY!

So I actually dyed my hair myself this time because the mommy is busy with baby. I figured it would be easier as well since it's short hair. SO, I bought the hair dye brand "SPLAT" in the color Lusty Lavender.



It comes with the bleach powder and the liquid thing to mix with and they dye itself. This is the first time I ever dyed my hair by myself...and I'm a perfectionist when it comes to hair. Not just hair color, but everyday I MUST have nice hair..nicely styled. I talked about me and my crazy hair self in another post about me styling my hair with a video tutorial here: http://ichuyy.blogspot.com/2012/06/straight-hair-with-volume-tutorialstory.html

But yeah, I was scared lol So I mixed the bleach stuff. All you had to do was pour the powder into the bottle of chemical and shake it. Easy enough. Then...applying it...

My hair had black dye on it. And my roots has grown out quite a lot since then. Some people forget this, but the natural hair on your roots pick up color A LOT faster and more dramatic than the part of your hair that has any type of dye on it, because it's 'virgin' hair that's growing, meaning it hasn't been exposed to any hair dye chemicals.

It was hard for me to part my hair in half to being the application because I had so many layers so I attempted to get the tips/ lower half of my hair all around my head before touching up on the roots. This is to give the lower half more time to process because it has black hair dye on it. The process will take longer because the bleach has to rid of the color. Then I went with the rest of the dye on my roots. According to the instructions on the package, it says for dark brown to black hair, leave it for 50-60 minutes. The smell of the bleach was a bit strong, but I didn't mind. It was itchy as fuck though!! Could just be because I haven't bleached my hair for a while. Bleach usually itches lol

So here is a photo of me and Goku, Naruto hair self LOL. I felt cool...and my brothers really liked it just cause I looked like Goku XD



Goku lookin' ass I know ;P

Then next would be the actual color!!! PEW!



So my lover said if I could keep some blond. So I tried that as you can see. In the end, the color bled so much when I tried to wash it off that it got some stains on the parts that I didn't want color on T_________T All well. This was the first time I applied color and washed result:



Sorry for weird photo. I couldn't find good lighting to show the two colors hahaha But yeah..the purple was a bit faded and golden ish from the dye. It's much harder to color Asian hair I swear T__T

The next day, I decided to buy another to really dye it purple. I wasn't really happy with the first result.

I was actually finally satisfied with the color enough to not feel "eh" about it lol That same day, I figured I do some makeup stuff since I haven't for a while. I've been watching a lot of One Piece and been obsessing over Final Fantasy stuff after the concert, so I guess I somewhat took that as inspiration. I love all the OP and Final Fantasy characters. They all are so unique and have their own feel..if that makes sense. Instead of replicating a character, I tried creating my own ish lol Idk. I also just wouldn't have the clothing for the characters haha

For this look, I wanted to try a cartoony, very thick usage of eyeliner 'drawing' on my face and tribalish look.

Here are the presentable photos I took of the Makeup Look and Hair:

I must say, I'm very narcissistic about my hair in these photos LOL. It was effortless despite the how complex it may look, gosh I love short hair n___n

Some random photos taken on my ipod touch5:



Lol I look crazy in some. But yeah. Not my most 'creative' but I do like the concept and the inspiration I found.

Idk if I should do a tutorial for it yet...I've yet to do one for Black Star Rock Shooter. O_O We'll see!!!

♥♥♥♥♥OVERALL REVIEW ON SPLAT HAIR DYE♥♥♥♥♥

I think it's a great product considering that you could get at Walgreen or CVS for about $10. I have short hair, and I used two boxes though. So if you have long hair, you might want to try two as well and possibly prepare to get three. The product itself is great! The dye is extremely concentrated. The only complication I had was my own hair since it is dark Asian hair which takes more strength n stuff to deal with lol I might wanna try pink next! I'm going to go hair crazy. Why not...because when I get old it would be weird lol But honestly, that wouldn't even stop me haha ♥

Thanks for reading!!!!
