 ~(•̪ . •̪~) My Alpaca and Totoro Necklace (~•̪ . •̪)~


So there is a fairly new webstore on Etsy called Snowdrop Jewellery, that sells handmade, adorable, clay necklaces.
The necklaces I have are not on sale, as the alpaca was won in a competition, and the totoro was a one of its kind. 

They sell quite a range of hand made clay necklaces.

Price

As you can see all the necklaces are £7, my totoro necklace was the same (but the alpaca was free - competition).

If I remember correctly, postage and packaging cost £3.

So overall £10, which I think is nice price for such pretty, handmade cuties.

Postage and Packaging

This was super quick! The order processed straight away and I got my necklaces in about a week, might have been even less. (I need to make notes in future...)

Both my necklaces came in a decent sized 'envoloped package', and Christina (the owner and creator) kindly wrote 'Fragile' on the package.

Also in the package there was loads of bubble wrap, which the necklaces where delicately wrapped in.

My cat really appreciated the bubble warp too, but for a different reason...

And as you can see the neclaces came in really pretty bags, I still keep them in these, to keep them safe.

Gilbert (the dinosaur )looks fabulous with them, don't you think?

Jinxx tried to take them...

The Necklaces

I can not express how adorable these are~.

As I kind of mentioned the alpaca necklace is my own design, Christina held a competition for people to design their own alpacas, there was three winners and I was lucky enough to be one. :3

Look how well it's made, it's exactly as I designed!

 I love art and designing, so to have designed something that has actually been made is amazing. 

I'm so so happy with it. ♡

More angles of the necklace-

She even added glitter on it which was a lovely suprise~.

Christina has mentioned other competition opportunities, so look forward to that. :3

Here is the necklace I bought, my adorable Totoro necklace. 

Like my alpaca necklace the detail on my totoro necklace is so good, I like how Totoro's fur looks, the continues detail. 

This necklace also makes me very happy to own, I love Studio Ghibli films, and already have a 'No Face' necklace from somewhere else, so I might start a little Ghibli jewellery collection. ♡

Another cute touch like the bags are these little 'pendants' on the chain where you fasten the necklace, it says 'made with love' and it's so adorable, and I believe they are. 

Overall

These necklaces are super duper cute, the pricing is really good and the postage and packaging and postage was brilliant. 

Sorry these aren't the best 'worn pictures' but I've been busy with college work.

♡ Uniqso Barbie Angel Blue Review ♡

ʚ♡ɞ Uniqso Review 1 ʚ♡ɞ

~(•̪ . •̪~) Barbie Angel Blue (~•̪ . •̪)~  

Hello reader and welcome to my first contacts and first uniqso review. I've admired circle lenses for awhile now but never got around to purchasing any until I started cosplaying and I felt like it was a must. I have read and watched quite a few reviews of contacts from uniqso and all are generally posistive, so I looked at their site for my first pair. 

It was really hard choosing a pair as I really liked many designs, but finally came across the 'Barbie Angle Blue' lenses. I liked how they looked on the website's pictures.

I liked how they included a picture of the contacts on people with different eye colours, I have light blue/grey eyes so the first modeled picture was really helpful and was the final thing that helped me decide to get these. 

So the website is super duper helpful, especially when there is a drop down box for currency so you don't need to bother converting. :D

Cost

These contacts are £10.53 ($16.90) which, looking around on a few sites, is a good price I think. :3
I can't remember how much the postage and packaging was but I don't think it was more than a few pounds.

Postage and Packaging

I think there is options for postage and packaging, and if there is I probably got the cheapest, just so you know. The processing time for my order took around two week, and then it took just over a week (week and few days) to ship to me. I live in Yorkshire, in England so if you live near there, that's an idea of the time it takes. So if you need these for a specific date, order your contacts at least a month in advance.

The packaging was really good, it all came in a envoloped styled packaging with bubble wrap attached. In this initial package was a cute box. 

It's super cute and says thank you in four different languages around it. 

And on the bottom. 

And in this box were the contacts themselves in their tubes, these were both individually wrapped in bubble wrap. 

So the contacts are kept really safe so you don't have to worry. :3 

The case for the contacts was also in this initial packaging. 

I love the design of this case because even though my contacts are quite big, the case reflects in a way that makes them appear smaller and easier to see. 

It was so difficult to focus on the lenses >~<. 

Circle Lenses

These lenses are 16mm in diameter, so they are on the larger scale of circle lenses. Though many would advise not to get 16mm lenses for your first pair, personally these were fine for me. Of course I was nervous when first putting them in (which resulted in me only able to get one in) after a few times of wearing them I got the hang of it. So I don't completely object to 16mm for your first pair but obviously smaller lenses would be easier. 

 I really like the enlargement of these, I think I have quite small eyes because these do look really big when on, in my opinion. 

 Comparison - 

I also really like the colour~. I like the dark outline, the only bad thing about it is in bad lighting some people can confuse the contacts for being black themselves (talking from experiance). But the blue is a lovely shade and even though it doesn't 'blend in' with my eye, I don't think it looks bad when my pupils are small, the curvature of the lense flows. 

I'm clearly no expert, however as a first time wearing I can tell you these are very comfortable. When you first put them on you can feel them, and it does feel quite weird, but not uncomfortable, and then after awhile you can't feel them at all, unless you get something else in your eye then, it's going to hurt, so be extra careful with them, a few times I have got hair strands from my wigs wondering close to my eye so, yeah, that hurts. 

 

Unfortuantely I could not get these in perscription, I was hoping I could but luckily for me I don't have to wear my glasses 24/7 so I can wear 'blank' contacts. 

This is the only proper 'downside' I have to these.

Thank you for reading my blog~

Geisha Wigs Review 1 ♡

ʚ♡ɞ Geisha Wigs Review ʚ♡ɞ

~(•̪ . •̪~)Sweet, Magenta Pink Curled Wavy Wig(~•̪ . •̪)~

Price

The cost of the wig is £22 which I think is a good price for a wig, especially one this long (I'll talk about that a bit later). I can't remember that well but the postage was around £4 which again, it's a big wig so I think that's fine. Fortunately I used a 10% off discount code so I got it even cheaper, that code is no longer available to use but Geisha wigs seem to have loads of codes and competitions which I think is great. I will win one one day. ^-^" ahaa

Postage and Packaging

Like I said before, I live in England and it took around 2 weeks for the order to get to me, the company is based in Wales (I believe) and is mostly one women doing it all is really impressive. Two people now but it was one when I ordered mine.

The outer packaging was a cute pink plastic wallet like packet? Which was so cute as it went with my wig, I dunno if they are all pink because this is my first purchase from them.

It was secure and was not damaged when I received it. :3

Then inside the wig was neatly placed in a wig net, in a clear plastic wallet. 

Here are pictures because I'm not so good at describing the packaging.

As you can see it came with a cute 'business card'(?) which had a little thank you note on which I really liked. :3

The Product

As I mentioned this wig is very long, it's my longest wig. With it curly it finishes about my waist, so when I straighten it it will be even longer.

Because it's so long and curly I haven't worn it that much because it does get tangled quite easily so if you are still quite new with wigs be cautious with this, I'm hoping I can cope with it better when it's straightened. And so far when I have worn or tried to style it a few hairs have come out, but that happens with most wigs and it still looks as cute, so if that happens to your wig just remain careful with it, it'll be fine. ^-^

It originally comes with a side fringe, but for my cosplay I cut the fringe, and I didn't think the side fringe suited me any way. The original fringe when straight down came down to my top lip so it's very long, so could be styled quite easily.

This wig is so soft! It's smooth but soft too, it feels so nice against my cheeks (*ˊᗜˋ) tehee.

So yeah, the quality is really nice and I don't think it's that shiny so looks quite 'natural'.

The netting is a pale skin colour, which personally I prefer and it's very secure. n.n

Wig with original side fringe

Wig with full fringe I cut in (still needs trimming a bit)

Other pics so you can see how long it is.

I adore this wig, I hope it looks nice when I straighten it (つд⊂) because I wanna wear it more.

But with it curly I think it would be perfect for a pinkie pie cosplay, I may try to re-curl it after for other cosplays (｡•ㅅ•｡)♡

This would be great for Pinky Pie
