Accent Lashes are Love

Thursday, February 25th, 2010 | 53 Comments

I scan in random things I want to share but often forget to SHARE them and I go into my junk folder and there they all are! Well I’ll share a bunch of them today!

First up, Ageha & circle lenses!
They did a big spread on the girls’ favorite 3 circle lenses. It’s from the November issue, I think. Yea… I told you I scan stuff & forget!!









I have links to most major Japanese contact carriers in my links section. Major sites include Max Color, Candy Magic, Angel Color, Vivian, Fall In Eyez.


I also scanned in a page from Popteen that shows some eyemake tips. I really liked the difference they showed when adding on accent lashes (half lashes) on top of full lashes!

Oh the difference!

I actually did this for the first time a few weeks ago when I debuted my Max Brown lenses. It’s really nice effect and doesn’t really require much more work than placing the full lashes. Actually it makes my full lashes feel more secure to be honest! Wasn’t as heavy to wear as I expected either!

I wanted to try the really winged, nude look that Kumicky often sports around~~




The full lashes were just typical dramatic full lashes from Hard Candy. The accent lashes I used were Ardell brand Accent lash #305. Yup, drugstore brand! I got mine at CVS actually and have had them for a while.

I recently got 2 new pairs of accent lashes from Yesstyle. Beauty World Rich Accent Eyelash! パッチリラビット and キュートなパンダ目. This roughly translate to “Cute Panda Eyes” and “Big & Beautiful Rabbit.” The second one I’m not certain on but seems right. Many of their lashes are named for gorgeous animal eyes, LOL. I don’t know but it’s so funny but cute

Just the “Cute Panda” lashes on only!

I might just be wearing accent lashes for a while. They’re just so much easier to wear all day long especially when wearing circle lenses~ :good: Paired with Double Extend Beauty Tubes Mascara it gives enough drama for a more nude look.

Though I’d really like to get these Shu Uemura Mini Star accent lashes! SOOOOOOOOO CUUUUUTE! Why must they be $22? That’s so much for accent lashes, hahahaha! I know, Shu Uemura is super nice quality~~

The seem like accent version of the larger star glitz ones! I couldn’t find them on the US Shu Uemura site for sell. This picture is from Tumblr or a model’s blog or something~ sorry I forget!!

No Wig, No Life

Thursday, February 18th, 2010 | 102 Comments

A few weeks ago I posted this video~~ It’s about how the use of “fashion wigs” has gone up 207% in 2009! They got many girls to remove their wigs in public. They also did a comparison in the amount of time it took to get one’s hair ready. As you can see below the full wig took 4 minutes while curling ones hair took 31 minutes!

*sorry, embedding was disabled*

Seriously!? Wigs are a freakin’ time-saver!? I never thought of it that way! And I started thinking, what if I really did buy a wig? For fun!? For cam whoring? For actually wearing??!!! For putting on 7am on Saturday morning when Mike wants to “do a Starbucks run” that morphs into us being out for hours on end at stores and cafes~~!! Because that happens A LOT. At night too. When I think we’re not going out and I remove all my make and my hair is crap we suddenly decide to do random date night and I end up going out looking like a soccer mom. To at least have perfect hair would be AMAZING~! :driftingheart:

Seriously the wig took a minute 20!! And the actual arranged took 29 minutes :F
I feel bad too because I think the wig kinda looks better

Many girls choose for the wig-parts instead. Like clip-in extensions or hair bun pieces. This girl is using hair bun piece, but I love how HUGE of a fan her friend must be of Wakatsuki Chinatsu! She even looks like her with the full nude make going on & decked out in WC! Hahahah, すごい~~~ so cute!

Under the “read more” there are a lot of photos (50+) so beware if you’re on your phone or something~~
