Clearly color contacts

Clearly color contacts:

I wanted to post about my color contacts that I currently wear. I have tried on many different brands in the over 10 years that I have been wearing contacts. Clearly color contacts have been my fav. They are really comfortable and gives you the circle lens look! I wear em 6-10 hours without any discomfort. They come in a glass vial and the lenses are a year prescription~ :)

I have tried on every color that they make in the past 3 years. This is the collection of photos that I gathered from my iphoto. *Violet and the brown are really pretty* :3

Hockey Night!

I L.O.V.E Nose pack & DHC

Hello this is my second post about things I love. You might see this post alot since there are lots of things I love, hehe. X3 Its mostly consist of things that I use alot! (which is beauty products)

Softymo by kose Black coal nose pack:

I use this nose pack once every 2 weeks or so. Its one of the best nose strips I've used so far. It is a heavy duty nose pack. I am very oily and have really large pores on my nose so this is perfect for me. This nose pack uses black coal said to have tightening effects on the skin. You get 10 strips in a pack for around $5 in Japan. Ive seen this sold on ebay for around that price.
DHC Q10 cream foundation(the left one in the pic)

This is my all time love when it comes to liquid foundations. I've been using this product for almost 2 years. I L.O.V.E it~!! I've had DHC products for over 5 years and every product I've used from DHC has not failed me. This foundation is really creamy, it doesn't feel heavy or cakey, has good coverage ( I dont have to use concealer), and contains Q10. I dont have perfect skin (see pic below) but this foundation gives me the look of naturally beautiful skin. It is great for people with oily/combination skin like me and does not make me break out like other liquid foundations! :) All of their color is in an ocher base, its like a yellow tan under color. I use yellow ocher 02 and yellow ocher 03 depending on summer or winter time, compare to NC30 ish. Good colors for asian skin tones~

Here is what the DHC website says about this product. Trust me this product does what it says~

Creamy fuller coverage. Achieve perfect-looking skin at last! This long-lasting SPF 18 foundation offers fuller coverage to smooth over pores, blemishes, and imperfections. Enriched with age-defying coenzyme Q10, hydrating olive oil, and UV damage–fighting olive leaf extract, these ingredients can help you win the fight against fine lines. Feels silky, not heavy, on skin. Elegant matte finish.

Before: Excuse my face with my nose pack,,>_< class="Apple-style-span" face="verdana">

After: with DHC balancing lotion then DHC Q10 foundation~

Things I L.O.V.E from Japan~ :3

SO Im writing about things that I love that is awesome. My aunt sent me this lip gloss from Japan. This lip gloss is pretty popular lip gloss among young girls, its sooo shimmery and glossy looking without the gooey texture! Its made by kiss me japan. 

Contains royal jelly extract great nourishing benefit :)

Here is must have for people that wears contacts. Another awesome item from Japan! :P Well this eye drops are made by Rohto, they have started to import their items in US but they only have the boring and not that great ones. They make all kinds of different eye drops but they only sell em in Japan,, :( 

This two is my favs~ pink one is *Lycee* contains B12 and rose extract and have mild cooling effect. Rohto make cooling level of 1-7 and this one is 3, they make one for contacts and another one for non contacts. Relieves the red eye and moisturizes  for hours! Loves it ;3

Blue one is* Zi 0* This one is for the hard core people that want to feel like you have ice cubes in yo eye! Its level 6 and Im telling you its intense~ but I love it!! I make all my friends try this one. Their first reaction is "oh my gosh!! I have paint thinner in my eyes!!" *trust me it dont burn, its intense icy feeling* but after few minutes they are like "most intense and amazing feeling my eyes ever felt" you gotta try this one it will relieve your red eye and dryness instantly~you will be addicted :D

Review~ Fiberwig vs mac fibre rich lash

One of the must have for me in a make-up is a good mascara. It gives you depth and dimensions gives you the illusion of larger eyes. I have really short lashes that is really straight, I usually have no patience in putting on false eyelashes so its a must for me to have mascara with fibers in it. Also there is no hassle with using mascara primers so its really all in one for me :) One of the great benefit for this two mascaras are that you dont need to use eye make-up removers! just use your usual facial cleanser and warm water is all you need~                                                             
                                                                      

*The trick to using them is applying 3 coats, let it dry alittle each time you apply.*

*also works great with electronic lash curlers*

                                                                                                          Before
                                                                                                     Fiberwig
                                                   After with fiberwig
                                               M.A.C fibre rich lash

Dejavu Fiberwig: (one of the very first fiber in mascaras invented) made in Japan $22 at sephora

I have been using fiberwig for 5 years and I loved it ever since I discovered them in Japan, now they are so popular its distributed all over internationally. After it dries this mascara turns in to rubbery texture becomes waterproof great for weddings, sweat, outdoor. when you remove them all you need is warm water you can actually see the rubbery particles come off.

M.A.C fibre rich lash : $12 at mac cosmetic counters

This mascara is pretty new additions to mac mascaras, it have similar consistency with fiberwig but I would say alittle less fibers but works just like fiberwig. I would say you do have to apply alittle more for the fibers show and its is not water proof like fiberwig, but over all I like it and of course half the price beats it! :)

Overall I would say I love Fibre rich lash since it is less expensive :) they are both great mascaras! hope this review helps anyone that was interested in getting this  mascaras!
