Review: DUO Brush On Striplash Adhesive

Finding a suitable eyelash glue for false eyelashes can be hard to find, especially for beginners and those with sensitive eyes. Typically latex-based eyelash glues can get very messy and hard for beginners to use since it's hard to get the right amount of glue on without making a mess! Japanese eyelash glues such as DUP Eyelashes Fixer EX, Eyemazing Super Fit or Diamond Lash Eyelash Fixer are definitely the best option for anyone to use since they are long wearing and easy to use. However, they can be costly at around $10-15 a tube and get really thick and hard to use after use for awhile (you can see an example here).

What is a good medium between being easy to use, won't get thick within months and is affordable? Duo Strip On Eyelash Adhesive!

Review: Diamond Lash Little Wink Series in Romance eye and Honey eye

I've had these for awhile now, and I know a lot of people are curious about how these are so I thought I'd review them! The Diamond Lash Little Wink series was released back in February to be more natural looking, similar to the newer Dolly Wink lashes.

Review: Donki Twinkle Lash D-6 Sexy

Twinkle Lash (or formerly known as Candy Style) are lashes that are created by and sold at Don Quijote (Donki) stores all across Japan. These lashes caused a craze amongst gyaru bloggers and even magazine models including Okarie and Kanako Kawabata, who have both blogged about them!

Recently Donki decided to open up an online store called HelloHello Nation, just for circle lenses and lashes that are sold exclusively at their stores. These lashes are now sold in packs of 5 pairs for 780yen, which is very economical. I have purchased most of the styles so I can review them for all of you!

First I'll start off with my favorite of the bunch, D-6 Sexy.

 The packaging that it comes in.

New Diamond Lash Series: Little Wink Series

This new eyelash series was just put up on sale on Diamond Beauty's online store, and will officially be rolled out in Japan on 2/24. The models for this series features Narumi Nakakita (former PopSister, current Edge Style model), Yumi Higashino (BLENDA model), and Yuki Yamamoto (JELLY model) and is supposed to go for a more natural, eyelash extension look. It reminds me a lot of Dolly Wink's new Otona line!

LOTD and some new lashes~

I've been using my weekends recently just to sleep in and be lazy at home since I am constantly busy throughout the week, but today Tony and I decided to finally go out! We decided to go to Round 1 since we haven't been in awhile, and while we were up there I went to Takashima and we ate at out beloved Foo Foo Tei <3

New Decorative Eyelash Series: PLAYGIRL featuring Emi Suzuki

Remember to join my giveaway! It is going on until November 11th!

Decorative Eyelash is created by SHO-BI, who also creates a line that you might have heard of... Diamond Lash! I believe that Decorative Eyelash came out first and was filled with lots of simple lashes. Like their Diamond Lash cousins, they come with 5 pairs in a pack and retail for 1050yen.

SHO-BI decided to create a new series for Decorative Eyelash called PLAYGIRL, featuring Seventeen and PINKY magazine model Emi Suzuki. These lashes are more suited for a gyaru lifestyle, but are also made so they're not exclusive to the style. There's 12 new styles of lashes all together.

Review: Decolog Who's Rich Eyelashes

Remember to join my giveaway! It is going on until November 11th!

I bought these recently while I was up in LA a few weeks ago, which you can see in this post. Sara Mari also has done a review of them recently as well. I usually don't like lashes that are this style (very "furry", to look more natural and full), but I don't know what made me get them. But they were definitely worth a try!

Review: Eyemazing No. 002 Eyelashes

Remember to join my giveaway! It is going on until November 11th! 

I'm a big fan of Jun Komori and her Eyemazing line, so I thought it would be appropriate to do a review! I am kind of ashamed actually I haven't tried these earlier, since Eyemazing No. 003 were one of my first pairs of lashes!

Review: Luminous Change No. 05 Eyelashes

Remember to join my giveaway! It is going on until November 11th!

I am so backed up on reviews due to school commitments, but I have some time now to post a review! I am reviewing Luminous Change Eyelash in No. 5, which I bought hoping it would be a dupe for Jewerich No. 2. Some people used keywords on my blog hoping it was a dupe for Diamond Lash Glamorous eye. So is it?

Photo dump from July

I took a lot of pictures in July that I meant to share here, so here goes!

FOTD using a bunch of new makeup products!

Over the past couple of weeks I've gotten a lot of new things, mostly makeup and lashes. I'll post what I used in my FOTD that's new and do mini-reviews for each item! I'm also wearing my new lenses, Geo Honey Wing. They were purchased for $25 at Elizabeth Center in New York's Chinatown.

Luminous Change: Rumi Itabashi's line of Eyelashes and Crystal Gel Seal

While I'm not a big fan of Rumi Itabashi aka Rumiringo (personal issues), I do have to admit that her line of products looks really nice and doesn't get enough exposure. It's not available in many places and mostly sold out, but we can all drool at the product images and hope they come back in stock soon! Bigger images in the cut~

Diamond Beauty Cream Summer Series, Miki Fujimoto's Eyemazing Line

Last week Diamond Beauty added cream blushes and eyeshadows to their product line for the summer, featuring Remi Sakamoto of Jelly as their model. Eyemazing is really expanding as well, they not only released a line for Mizukitty but also for Miki Fujimoto of Hello! Project fame.

Mizukitty for Eyemazing: Sweet Ribbon Series

Popteen and Nicky model Mizukitty has teamed up with the Eyemazing label to create her own subseries: Sweet Ribbon Series. The main points for her series was to have eyelashes that were comfortable and good quality, made your eyes look cute, be natural looking all the while being affordable!

There will be 4 styles and will be released nationwide in Japan on 6/8. They are priced at 1260yen for 3 pairs per pack.

New brand of eyelashes for gal, Eyelash Laboratory

If you have seen the last couple of month's issues of gal magazines, you'll see that a new brand of eyelashes called Eyelash Laboratory has been taking out 2 page ads to start promoting their line of eyelashes. Taking a team of gal magazine models (mostly from Popteen), they helped design and create these new eyelashes. You can see part of the process in this video that was uploaded to YouTube:



For a new brand, they already have a ton of options! All of these lashes come in 5 packs and are priced at 1050yen (tax-in). Currently they're only being sold on the Popteen store online and Don Quijote stores in Japan.

Eyelash categories:
- Cute Princess (9 styles)
- Sweet Fairy (5 styles)
- Natural Angel (3 styles)
- Rich Venus (2 styles)
- Sexy Doll (5 styles)

Spring break so far with a pleasant package :D

I've currently been on Spring Break from school for the past week and spent the time watching all of Hellcats so far and sleeping in until 1! Too bad it's only a week, but I have to get back to my normal sleeping schedule :(

I got this package today from Japan To Door with my recent orders of cosmetics (mostly eyelashes):

You can see that there's Diamond Lash, Eyemazing, Jewerich and a couple of random brands of lashes in there~ I will be opening up my Diamond Lash custom packs again very soon, but there will be a couple of rule changes! Stay tuned for that :D
