SpreePicky Review 1 ʚ♡ɞ

Clearance Wig

ʚ♡ɞ

Here is a video version of the review, if you'd prefer  ʚ♡ɞ

I've admired SpreePicky for ages and with the clearance sale I decided I was going to treat myself to one of the wigs. 

I thought this was a really good idea, you pick if you want a long or short wig and then they surprise you with the style and colour. I was so excited, like a bit more than usual because I couldn't wait to see what I got.   ヽ(*≧ω≦)ﾉ

Postage and Packaging

I didn't have to wait long any way, which was another lovely surprise. 5 DAYS! How amazing is that? Free Shipping from China, and it took less than a week. Seriously I was not exopcting my wig to arrive so soon.

The packaging was secure and safe. The wig came in a bubble wrapped envelope, yes it fitted in one of those. And then in a clear, plastic wallet, the wig was placed in a thin net to prevent notting. 

Here is a picture of the envelope, however my original images got 'damaged' so these pictures I took a week or so after...
I also got some cute stuff with it, that was also in the envelope. I'll talk more about those a bit later.

Price

The price of the wig was around £12, which I think is a super nice, especially for a heat resistant, 'cosplay' wig. 

And of course, very kind Free Shipping.

Product

This wig is so nice, where should I start?
Well it's nice and comfy, if you don't put it on too tight like I accidentally did one day... ;>~<;
The hair is nice and soft too, to add to the comfy-ness.

The wig is decently long, not too hard to maintain and look after.

It looks so natural and pretty, I look a bit weird here but I tried to get a picture of the length of the wig....

The fringe is also quite long so you can style it in a lot of ways. I've kept the fringe as it came, for something a bit different to my other wigs.

The wig arrived with beautiful waves to it, after wearing the wig a few times and combing, etc, they have loosened but the waves are still there which I really like.

Picture from the day I got it (off my tablet so lower quality).

Inside and out this wig is so pretty; the netting is brown to help camouflage and it has pretty flower designs on. I appreciate the flower design.

Free Gifts

As I mentioned earlier in this post, I got a few extra things in my order besides the wig. 

Of course they gave me their cute business card~.

They also gave me a super early birthday card :P (I know, I know...)
So cute~

And then I got two kind little gifts.

A hair net, which is super nice quality.

And an adorable cat (or possibly puppy) ring.

It's so small it's hard to take
a 'detailed' picture but there's
not really detail to it, it's just simple
and cute. uwu











So over all I am super duper happy with SpreePicky, as I expected. They have succeeded my high expectations and I hope to enjoy more products of theirs in future.

Alpacasso Bag and Cleaner Review (TOM)

Tokyo Otaku Mode Review

 

If you would prefer to watch a video review, I have one for this review here : 

ʚ♡ɞ

 

TOM Points 

 So I soon discovered that Tokyo Otaku Mode had a points system where you can accumulate points to get money off of purchases. You share a personal link and those who use then get certain points, and so do you. 

They also give you $5, off on your first purchase. 

I was planning on purchasing an Alpacasso Plushie with these points as I had $10 worth to use, which is the amount the one I wanted was. Also some codes give you FreeShipping on certain items. 

Unfortunately because of this great opportunity, they sold out like crazy. And the 'first purchase' code runs out after a week so I wasn't sure how long to wait... 

But then thanks to some friends I got more points, I think $15. 

So here is what I ended up purchasing.

Plsuhie Lovely Bag 

Thanks to my $15 amount of codes, and an extra code I found worth $1 and free shipping, I managed to buy this adorable bag for 61p (99¢). 

I think that's pretty amazing. 

Here's the website's photos:                                                 I chose the lavender (D) one

They're all so cute, but I chose lavender to match my Snowdrop Jewellery Necklace.
[Review here]

Look how cute the is bag is, it is just as cute as a plushie, and more useful~.

The bag was kept safe in this plastic packaging (in the original box which I will come to after I talked about the individual products).

It comes with cute tags attached to the zip handle. 
So you can just pull it off and no harm is done to the bag. 

Look how cute this tag is~

Look two of them have bows like the bag.
Speaking of the bow, it came in pretty condition, not crimpled ot squished. 

And the inside of the bag is spotty, to kinda match the bow I guess. It's almost like the inverse pattern of the bow.

Look how fluffy is looks, that's because it is, it's extremely soft and fluffy. It's also very cuddly, so if you were waiting to meet with someone you could just sit there cuddling your bag... To pass the time. 

But yeah, it came in lovely condition, here are some extra photos. 

Block Mini Cleaner

With my 'welcoming code' ($5 off) plus the free shipping I used before, I managed to order this cute screen cleaner for free!

Websites Photos:

Look how cute these are too~ 
I was thinking of getting Grape but then maybe that's too much purple alpacas... So I chose blue (Soda Pop) as that is another favourite colour of mine. 

I think this is such a cool item, I admit my phone and tablet screens tend to somehow get a bit mucky with fingerprints... So I do kinda need this.
I've tried it on my phone so far and it does work at cleaning, and I haven't had to clean it for awhile now, since I did clean it. YAY

Like the bag, it was seperately packed in a plastic packet. It was secured with tape too, so all nice and safe. 

Another cute tag~
It's soft, and has an elastic band on the top. I guess you can put in on a bag or something? 

The ears are a little 'wonky' but that's from the postage and packaging I think, they'll be fine.

P&P and Free Gifts

 The shipping was really fast, the items got me around 8 days from the day I ordered them. 
Strangely though the items arrived n seperate boxes, the postman actually almost forgot my second parcel, it arrived an hour or so after the first one did. And it's not like there was no room for them to be in one box, both boxes were quite big. It didn't really affect me much, I just think it would have been easier to have had them in one box, would have cost them less too.

Here is what came in the first box.

The featured 'free gifts' I got here, I also got the same with my screen cleaner. 

I got a fan, which would have been great for the summer just passed. 

Then I got a sleeve that my order information came in, I'm going to use this to store drawings probably. 

I'm really happy with what I ordered, and the service. 
And it's very kind of them to give free gifts too.

Light In The Box Review 1 [Cosplay Buys]

Light In The Box

Previous Purchase

Before I go on to the main review, I'd like to mention a mention of another wig I purchased from Lightinthebox. This was my first ever wig, and originally was for Arthur Kirkland (England) cosplay... I am going to cosplay him...

I originally thought it was just over a year when I got this, but it will actually be 2 years in october! And this wig is only just recently starting to 'die'. So I have high standards for lightinthebox wigs, this blonde wig is lovely and thick and soft, and easy to style (so glad I got it for my first wig). 

15 year old me, who had no idea on how to wear/style a wig xD

But I did go to school with this wig once and no one knew it was a wig, until I went the next day with blue, longer hair.

Picture from earlier this year.

Camelia Gumi Cosplay Wig 

 ♡

So this year I finally started to cosplay and ever since I have created such a massive list of characters that I want to cosplay, Gumi from Vocaloids being one (I want to cosplay the majority of the girl vocaloids...). 

I wasn't actually planning on a Gumi cosplay so soon but I generally wanted a new wig so came across this one on Lightinthebox.com. I actually bought my first ever wig from them so I trust their quality (I bought it about a year ago and it's only just starting to 'weaken'). 

But any way, enough of the 'back story'. 

Here is the main photo the website provides:

 Look how pretty the gradient is.

Price

This wig is originally £12.95, which is quite cheap for heat resistant fiber wig. 

But, as you knowI love sales, I got this wig for £8 I think it was, something around that... Which is an amazing price!

Plus it's free shipping, and you have the option to pay for insurance of the postage, which (if my memory is correct) is around £1. I can't remember where they ship from, but it's nice to know it's insured if anything was to happen.

Postage and Packaging

After I purchased the wig, it took around 3 weeks to get to me, which I respect as I am unsure where they ship from.

The wig comes in a cardboard like this, and this was (if I remember correctly) a plastic packaging.
All packaging was secure and nothing was damaged. 

Inside the box the the wig comes in a plastic wallet, which is handy for future storage.
The wig is wrapped in a thin net and has a cardboard strip around it, to help prevent the wig from moving too much and tangling/damaging.

The wig

Here's what the wig looks like after I took it out of the packaging:

No tangles :D

 The wig is so silky, feels really nice.
As I mentioned before the wig is made of heat resistant fibers.

This wig is as pretty as it looks on the website.

 This bit looks a bit darker and the yellow looks a bit longer, but that may be if you want to trim it a bit?

Like most wigs it originally comes with a long fringe so you can style it how you want.

Before styling:

This wig is so pretty! I was really tempted to keep it like this but I feel as though Gumi's hair is more of a full fringe so...

[I have a video on how I cut this wig, if anyone is interested. Link at the bottom of the blog.]

 This wig is so nice and an even nicer price, so I definetly recommend this wig.
In my video review I did notice a slittle loose thread in the netting but that may be my doing as I hadn't noticed it before, though it won't be hard to sew back in. 
I haven't cosplayed Gumi yet (working on Matryoshka outfit) but I have worn this wig quite a few times.

[Picture from my last review (Romwe).]

I can't wait to cosplay her!
