Giveaways galore!

Just a reminder to my readers and anyone who comes across this that both of my giveaways end TOMORROW AT 5PM PST! If you haven't entered already please feel free to, and remember that posting about my giveaways will give you an extra entry to win!

And since I shouldn't be only throwing giveaways, here's a few that I'm entering that look pretty sweet!

Mitsu from Universal Doll is having her "Mitsu's Favorite Things Giveaway" going on right now with the only announced prizes as Diamond Lash in Celeb eye and an Alpaca plushie with more to be revealed in the future! If you're a reader of my blog, you know that I love the Celeb eye and did a review for them and also wore them in my profile picture! To enter click on the photo from her giveaway to get to the entry! I also credit Mitsu for giving me the inspiration to get into blogging :D

Hana from Finding Tokyo has her "New Year Giveaway" going on right now with a lot of secrets going on! I love Rilakkuma and new makeup so it should be good! Also a big thanks to Hana again for featuring my "Recession proof makeup" article on one of her recent weekly wrap ups, helping it to become the most popular article on my blog so far!

Also I guess it doesn't hurt to do a photo dump things from this month~

2 outfits and makeup changes

I hope everyone in the US had a fabulous Thanksgiving and Black Friday! I did and didn't at the same time, mostly because the screen on my phone is totally cracked. It still works but it's a sad thing to see :(

But anyways, here's some photos~

Eyelash review: Loujene Glamorous Full S #2/LJ つけまつげN02 グラマラス フルS

I'm going to review the Glamorous Full S #2 from Loujene's line of affordable cosmetics. Retails for 105yen in Japan and $1.50 at Ichibankan stores in California. I'm not sure where else their products are sold at, but if you've seen them please let me know! :) If you're interested in them you can purchase them on the company's Rakuten store here, but you need to use a shopping service for them. Most of their lashes are very gyaru-kei along with some of their other makeup products!

Recent outfits

I haven't made a post about me in awhile, especially because during my trip to Monterey the internet was very inconsistent :( So I guess here's 2 outfits and a few other things~

50 Followers Giveaway!

I know a lot of you have been anticipating it, and here it is! Remember, my original 25 follower giveaway is still going on! Yes, you can participate in both of them :)

What's in it:
- Diamond Lash sampler pack with 6 styles of lashes
- Black rose detailed fine tooth comb
- NYX White chubby eyeliner stick
- Black colored Eyelash Adhesive

Detail pictures on the eyelashes:

I reused a Glamorous eye pack, but I did clean it out and sterilize it before I put the new lashes in :) Just in case if any of you are germaphobes~ Also the Glamorous eye is my absolute favorite of all the Diamond Lash styles and I wear it the most. You can see me wear it here and here, along with the Lovely bottom lashes on the bottom.

Rules:
- Open worldwide, so I'll ship this to whoever wins it no matter where you live!
- Please comment with your name, e-mail and blog link for 1 entry.

ageha model names: Featured models

This is part 2 of the ageha model names post. If you want exclusive and graduated models, visit this post.
Like the other post, I'll have a picture along with their names in romaji and Japanese and their blogs!

ageha model names: Exclusive/Resident + Graduated models

I've noticed in my stats that there's been an influx of people here coming from Google searching up "ageha model names", so I guess I'll make a post about that ^^;; I'll break it up between resident + graduated models and models with their names in romaji, Japanese and blog address!

Featured models are in this post.

Another quick check-in!

This project is kicking my butt but I thought I would make another quick stop by in my blog! I like posting daily but hard now with deadlines :'(

After Friday I'll be off for the week and going up to NorCal for my 2nd anniversary vacation with Tony! I'm excited since I haven't been to SF in so long and need to go to Japantown and Daiso! I'll be staying in Monterey Bay though because I want to go to the aquarium and it's a shorter drive back home for us ^^;;

Since I'm almost already at 50 subscribers, I had to decide what was going to be the prizes for 50 and 75 already! To entice people on what's going to be in the next one to subscribe so I can start the giveaway, I'll tell you guys what the main prize in it is (there's also a few other small things in it):
A SAMPLER PACK OF 6 TYPES OF DIAMOND LASHES, INCLUDING 2 FROM THE NEW SERIES!

So what are you waiting for? Tell your friends about this cool prize and that they need to subscribe! :D

A quick update and check in!

As you guys will see in the next few days I'm just going to make small updates around the blog layout here and there. I have a really huge project due on Friday, so I'm going to be working mostly on that throughout the week.

I've been getting a big influx of followers in the last few days, probably because I was featured in Hana of Finding Tokyo's weekly wrap up? Many thanks to her for featuring me, and all the new followers I've gained from it!

I purchased two different brands of BB cream online (Korea's Missha and Japan's Nanoce), because a few people have had concerns about my skin. Thanks to those who did have concerns, and I hope that changing to BB cream will be beneficially for me! It did come at a good time too, I'm almost out of both of my foundations! I'll try to do reviews once they both arrive (for the Nanoce I have to pick it up in store since it's in Southern California) :]

Also just another little blurb about how I will do giveaways at 50, 75 and 100 followers! Remember how I said the prizes will start getting bigger? They are looking pretty nice so feel free to follow me and join in on the giveaways :D

アイコレ: Eye Make Collection

Has anyone ever heard of this site before? http://www.eyecolle.jp/

If you haven't, it's a very good resource to see different girls' daily eye makeup and get some inspiration! Luckily most of the eye makeup is gal styled, but there's also some V-kei and a few others featured.

What I like about this site is that the eye is the main focus and usually the girls will talk about what they wanted to get out of the look and also the products that were used. Most of the site is keyword based, and you can look at the sidebars or on the main page to see what is trending!

Here's a few pages you will all be interested in ranked by most popular:
- Most recent
- Most popular
- Gal-style (a lot of model copycat looks)
- Natural (for an everyday look)
- Circle lenses
- Without circle lenses
* If you can't read Japanese, I recommend using Google Chrome for their built in translator or Yahoo! Japan翻訳 and select the 2nd option to translate Japanese to English.
* You might have to sign up for the website to look at additional pages or pictures.

Also a big thanks to the girls who have entered my giveaway so far! Keep it coming :D
