KLensPop mailed the package via Korea Post, and the cardboard box was very secure. Inside the cardboard box, everything was wrapped in a thick layer of bubble wrap.

Inside the bubble wrap was this adorable little box! I love KLensPop’s packaging. There was even illustrated instructions for the care of contact lenses on the back of the box.

Above, you can see what was inside the box. Everything was packaged neatly inside a ziploc bag. The circle lenses come with a contact lens case (color-coded for left and right), and a pair of contact lens tweezers. I don’t use tweezers since I use my fingers, but if you want to use a tool like this, the option is available.

DSC_0007This is my first time trying circle lenses from the Korean brand New Bio, by the way! Now, onto the review for these lenses from KLensPop. ^_^

eye

These black circle lenses do enlarge my eyes, but the enlargement is very natural. I don’t think people will stare at my eyes skeptically; if I wore these lenses at home, I honestly don’t think my grandparents will freak out like they normally do when I wear circle lenses. Since the enlargement is natural, these circle lenses look great with toned-down makeup. I did not wear any false lashes for this makeup look! I only used eyeshadow, black liquid eyeliner, white pencil eyeliner, and mascara for the eye makeup.

These are in my prescription too, which is wonderful! You should check their website; they probably have your prescription as well.

Now, for my circle lens ratings!

Overall: ☆☆☆☆☆

Style: ☆☆☆☆ This design is simple but definitely fits in the natural aesthetic. It looks lovely! I like how it gives my eyes a gray tinge in certain lighting and eye positions, due to the sheer-colored black parts on the inner section of the lenses.

Enlargement: ☆☆☆ These give slight enlargement, but they are not too noticeable. If you compare these photos to photos of me without circle lenses, you’ll see that my real eye are, in fact, smaller. These lenses would be perfect for a natural look! If you are interested in wearing circle lenses, but are scared to try them because they are so large, you should start off with these lenses! They would be a great pair of circle lenses for someone to start out with.

Color: ☆☆☆☆☆ It’s definitely a black color! The outside is black, but it is more sheer toward the inside. I have dark-colored eyes, but I’m sure it will darken light eyes too. Since the black ring is only on the outside and fades toward the inside, they would look really cool if you have light colored eyes~!

Comfort: ☆☆☆☆☆ These are extremely comfortable! I wore these lenses to see The Hobbit: The Battle of the Five Armies, and they never bothered me, even when watching the movie in 3D. I never had to use eyedrops. I am definitely interested in trying other circle lenses from this brand!

PinkyParadise: Princess Pinky Radiance Honey Brown

beautyplus

PinkyParadise sent me these cute prescription circle lenses: Princess Pinky Radiance Honey Brown. Here is the information about these lenses from their website:

Diameter: 14.5mm
Water Content: 38%
Base Curve: 8.6mm
Life Span: 1 year disposal

If you buy something from PinkyParadise, use the coupon code “xiaorawr” to get free mystery gifts and cute lens cases! PinkyParadise shipped out these lenses with no problem at all. They marked the package as “Gift,” so there were no problems with customs.

packagingThe vials were wrapped in secured foam, so they were completely safe and undamaged.

DSC_0009_Fotor_CollageThey had my prescription in stock, which is wonderful! Some lenses don’t have the same increments in prescriptions, but my prescription is a bit odd. My left eye is -3.75 but my right eye is -3.50 right now. If you check out Princess Pinky Radiance Honey Brown‘s available prescriptions, you’ll see that they have a huge range!

lenses

PinkyParadise always gives out cute contact lens cases with lens purchases. For these lenses, I got a cute purple fish lens case! I love how adorable these look. I soaked the lenses in my multipurpose lens solution overnight before wearing them for the first time. If anyone is curious, the lens solution I use is the Walgreens Multi-Purpose Contact Lens Solution. It’s affordable and works really well; I’ve been using it ever since I wore my first contact lenses.

Now, for my circle lens ratings!

Overall: ☆☆☆☆☆

Style: ☆☆☆☆ This design is really pretty! The space for your pupils is also large, so your pupils will look bigger.

Enlargement: ☆☆☆☆ Great enlargement! They definitely enlarge your eyes, but they don’t make your eyes look as huge as some other circle lenses. There is no black limbal ring. I think these lenses would look lovely with casual makeup looks (without any false lashes or dramatic eyeliner) because they are fairly realistic.

Color: ☆☆☆☆☆ Love the rich brown on the outside and yellow on the inside. It’s very cute! The brown looks orange in some lightings.

Comfort: ☆☆☆☆☆ These are very comfortable! I can wear them all day without using eyedrops; they do not dry my eyes out. Of course, you should only wear the lenses for the recommended amount of time. I usually try to wear my lenses for less than 6 hours.

I think I will use these lenses next time I cosplay Hinata from Haikyuu!! … >w<

Silly Sweet Shop: Jewelry

SWEET

Silly Sweet Shop sent me an awesome package of sweet treats! 😀 Sweet wearable treats, I mean!~

They mailed it in a bubble mailer like this:

packaging

Inside, they left a sweet note on cute stationery, and they also included their business card! I love their business card design; it definitely shows off their style.

DSC_0007_Fotor_Collage

All their products were safely tucked away in the bubble wrap. When I ripped off the tape securing the bubble wrap and unfolded the package, I was pleasantly surprised to find adorable packaging! The two necklaces were in a drawstring pouch, and the bow and ring were in a cute plastic baggie that said “Handmade for you.” I’m saving this bag; it’s so cute!

goodies

In this package, I got a pink macaron necklace, a waffle bowl ice cream necklace, a pink drippy chocolate-and-sprinkles bow, and a bear drippy chocolate-and-sprinkles cookie ring. All of these items are super cute and have lovely detail! Both necklaces have a lobster clasp, which is my favorite type of clasp. I find it much easier to use than the spring ring clasp, and I always appreciate artisans who use the lobster clasp for their jewelry pieces.

Here are some individual shots of the items:

itemsI truly love ALL of these jewelry pieces! It is difficult to choose a favorite, but if I really had to choose, I would pick the waffle bowl ice cream necklace as my favorite piece. The detail in this sweets pendant is impeccable.

WAFFLE

The waffle bowl looks realistic, the fudge looks perfectly chocolatey, and the cherry on top is an adorable touch. Red is my all-time favorite color, so I love seeing red cherries! The red really pops against the brown chocolate fudge.

For my styling photos, you may recognize the coordinates from this previous review. Since I am a full-time college student (who also works two part-time jobs), I’m extremely busy. I do not have much time to dress up anymore, and I definitely don’t have time for many photoshoots alongside my studies. I tried to work different pieces together when I did these outfits. I think the different elements go well together, thank goodness!

BOW

The detail on this bow is amazing! The chocolate actually does look drippy, and the entire bow is well-constructed.

bow copy

The chocolate and sprinkles are not loose. This is a very cute bow that can be worn for OTT coordinates as well as casual wear!

coordI wore the bow and the waffle ice bowl ice cream necklace with the above coordinate, but I can also wear these cute items to spice up casual pieces of clothing, such as jeans and a t-shirt. These accessories would also be perfect additions to a fairy kei outfit!

macaronI also want to talk about this adorable macaron necklace! As you may already know, I loveloveLOVE macarons!

coordi

I felt really cute when I wore this necklace! I want to start a macaron jewelry collection now… Macarons are delicious, but also look super cute as accessory motifs. ❤

And of course, I cannot leave out the adorable cookie ring:

DSC_0001

This ring is a great size: it’s big enough to be easily noticeable, but it’s not too bulky. It’s very comfortable to wear, and the ring band is adjustable!

Here is a message from the owner of Silly Sweet Shop: “I have been a clay sculptor and crafter for six years now. I love JFashion very much, so much that I wanted to base my brand on Japanese pop culture fashion. I travel to many conventions selling my items, I love to bring joy and spread the word about how great JFashion can be.”
