Contact Lens Review: Sparkle Hello Kitty in Black

Hi! I know I'm not really that much of a contact lens expert since I'm not really fund of collecting them, but I'm gonna have a review on this one for those who are interested. A Facebook message from Amz of aMz Blog just made my day - I won her birthday giveaway! Amazing prizes were in store of course and one of them was a pair of Sparkle Hello Kitty Contact lens. I got the one in black.


Diameter: 14.5 mm (Dolly eyes)

oooh~! cute Hello Kitty Pattern! I was kinda nervous about the design. Might be too obvious when I wear it, but it turned out to be unnoticeable after all.

They're kinda grayish when used with flash on photos.

See what I mean? Kawaii ne~

My verdict:
  • It's very comfortable to wear. Doesn't irritate my eyes at all.
  • The Diameter size is not a problem. I do prefer 14.5 mm diameter when it comes to dolly eye contacts. Some people just don't though.
  • Dries easily when I wear them. So, always make sure to bring your contact lens solution with you. 


...and that's all for this review.
If you've already tried this kind of contact lens, please do let me know. I'd really appreciate that.

The GYARU Experiment

Today I was in the mood to experiment. I realized that I have dolly contacts, dyed hair, falsies, and cute outfits. So, why not try to be a gyaru for today?
Gyaru refers to Japanese fashion. They're like real-life dolls. I'm a fan of Tsubasa Masuwaka who is huge in the Japanese fashion industry. 

I'm pretty sure if you dress up gyaru style here in the Philippines, people will notice you. So yeah, today I was an object who was definitely the center of attention. 
People noticed me and I don't really care what they think or say because all in my head was experimenting, and I don't like to be the center of attention anyway :p
and this is the look...

I did curl my hair and tried a cute hairstyle >.<

My eye make up :)

As you noticed, gyaru look should be flawless, that's why I used a lot of products on my skin just to cover blemishes and scars on my face. I also used my Victoria Secret Blushing Cream Duo as highlight for the cheeks and a light blushing powder. 
The eyes should be very noticeable. This can be attained by using dolly eye contacts and white eyeliner to make your eyes appear bigger and doll-like. There's no need to use dark eye shadows. As much as possible use light and shimmery eye shadows. And don't forget to put on lashes :p
And for the lips, apply concealer first before putting on a lip color. Use a light pink color for the lips and top it off with a lip gloss.

kawaii ne? (^.^)v

...and that's all for this look!
I could really LOL for this photo above. Just tryin' to be cute and all? HAHA!
So what do you think? Did I pass on my experiment? 
Anyways, I do hope you'd try this gyaru look. It never hurts to try new things you know, you might discover a new side of you ;)
