[Cosroom] Kyoko Sakura wig

Hi everyone xD Recently, I haven't post reviews about wig. But, now I decide to post another wig review, because I notice some people around me, kept searching or asking for review about some wig brand. I hope this review will be helpful :D

Have you heard a taobao's brand called cosroom? If you haven't, I think next time if you are looking for wig and confuse where to buy it, you can consider cosroom.

And here's the review about a wig from cosroom. Actually, I don't know the exact name of the wig from the store, but I called Kyoko Sakura wig because from the details product, it says that this wig can be used for Kyoko Sakura from anime Puella Magi Madoka Magica.

SO, to the review :D

> Fibre = Same like other taobao's store, it used kanekalon fiber and can be ironed up to 180 Celcius degree. But, the differences lies on the smoothness and strength of the wig which is not fragile to fall out.

> Smoothness = I super in love with the smooth that this wig had, because I think it's soft and the smooth is just perfect (not excessive)

> Cap = medium to large size. It can suits perfectly for any people who have short/medium/long hair and thick/thin hair. Actually, I think for the cap it's similar to cc kids's cap.

> Thickness = Super AWESOME TTwTT I never find a wig that have thick hair and not so easy to fall out. One thing that I admire from this wig is eventhough it's long (I think the clip about 80 cm), when I comb it I only found around 5 piece of the hair which is fall out. Is it really awesome ? :')

> Treatment = Super easy to take care of this wig <3 When I used it to an event, because the event is outdoor so the wig is tangled. Then when i arrived at home, I comb it for several times and it's so easy back to normal shape.

> Price = Rather pricey. The price is similar like my cc kids lolita brown wig.

If you notice, almost all of my comments shows the good side. lol xD But, actually that's an honest opinion from me. Some thing that I can notice as the CONS for this wig are only the wig's collection from cosroom is very few and it's rather pricey.


I don't have pictures that shows the wig in general, but I have some photos when I wore it. (At that time, my friend accompany me and she's the one who became homura akemi)

(Camwhoring xD )


I do hope they will produce more various wig, because the quality is just so awesome :D

[Princess Universe] Venus Circle lens

I was more busy these days because of my school's routinities. But, I still need some time for refreshing, and of course I want to blogging too.
Recently, I don't oftenly buy new things because I want to save money for buying various fabrics and such things. So, I'll just make a review about my circle lenses named "Princess universe". For this product, I bought it in brown color (somehow it looks yellowish).

Eventhough I want to show you more photo of this circle lens, too bad I only have few photos :( Actually I can take more photos, but I already throw this pair before I make a review about it. 
In spite of that, I do really hope you'll get enough information from this review :D

(The photo was taken when the lens were still in the bottle. You can see that the color is really light, right?)

(it's 1 year ago when I'm cosplaying as homura akemi and at that time I used the lens which I mention above)

So, about my review:

Enlargement : so so. Of course it makes differences compared to my actual eye, but I don't really think that my eye is "that" big. Compared to my diva soul's circle lens (diameter: 14.8 mm), my eyes looks smaller when using this circle lens. I think maybe that's because of the outer ring is very thin so it doesn't gives big enlargement.
*For your information, if the outer ring (usually in black color) is thick, it will make a big enlargement for your eyes eventhough the diameter of the circle lens is not really big.

Comfort : It's very comfortable and maybe that's because of the high water content. When I wear this circle lens, I don't feel like wearing something in my eyes. I'm so in love with the comfort side of this circle lens <3

Color : For princess universe collection, they were famous by it's light color. Unlike the other circle lens, you'll see how bright my eye color is when I used it, but it doesn't look weird. But, I only use these pair occasionally, such as when I do cosplay or photoshoot. But when I went hang out or went to a party, I decided to use another pair with natural color.

Life span : eventhough it's stated 12 months, actually I can only used it for 7 months. In my opinion, when I used it on the 7th month, I don't think it's comfortable anymore compared to the first time when I bought it. Because I don't want to hurt my eyes, so I decided to throw it away and buy a new pair.


Also, I'll share some information about the lens itself.



Origin Country : Korea
Diameter : 15.00 mm
Water content : 52 %
Thickness: 0.20  mm
Life span : 12 month
Color Type : Light



PROS:
-) Very Comfortable
-) Thin
-) Light Color
-) High water content
-) Gives enlargement to eyes, eventhough it's not really big.

CONS:
-) can only used for +/- 7 months, while in the catalogue it's written 12 months
-) The price is so so
-) The pattern isn't really special

Rating : 7.5/10

Have a nice days everyone, see you <3 :)

[Bobbi Brown] Creamy concealer kit

There're so many people that have dark circles around the eye, including me. To make it doesn't really appear, you can use concealer and it's really easy to apply it.
This product was recommended by my sister when I say to her that I want to buy a new concealer.
So, I tried it first and bought 1 when I go to Kuala Lumpur for holiday :)

At first when I arrived to Bobbi Brown store, I got confuse why the concealer were so many #slapped. At last I found out, that's because the sample of the concealer come in many different shades. I don't remember how many shades they have for this concealer, but I think that's around 10 color. So, I think you can find the perfect shade for your skin <3

and,, here's the cover of my new concealer <3



> Packaging
I love the packaging, it's really simple but very elegant and useful. The great part that I really like that this kit have a small mirror inside it.




> Kit
Another great part of this concealer was there's a powder on the right side of the concealer. It helps my concealer to sets in place and stay longer. 

> Effects
Yes! it make differences to my eyes. My dark circle doesn't really appear anymore, so I look fresh and brighter xD Also, I can use it to cover my pimples so it can't be seen.

> Texture
Sometimes when I use another concealer it will feels heavy to my eye and made me feel sleepy. But it's not happen with this concealer. The texture is creamy but feels soft to my eyes.



Rating: 9/10

Comments:
I really love this concealer kit :D It makes a great effect to my eyes and the powder is really useful too <3 But, too bad it's hard to find this product in Indonesia :'S and if you consider the price, it's pricey.

The picture below shows the price in Ringgit Malaysia.



Thanks for reading! have a nice day :)

5 movies for Lolita

The second topic is up and it's about "5 movies for Lolita" :D
To be honest, this is a hard topic for me. Because there're so many things I do, so I rarely got the chance to watch ;;w;;

But still, I want to share some movies that relates to lolita style and these are great movies to me.




1. Paradise Kiss
It's a Japanese movie. The main story is talking about an ordinary high school girl which turns out to be a great model and an awesome fashion designer. The plot is very exciting and makes me want to know what will happen next. Other than that, I was deeply in love with the fashion that appears in the movie. It's one of the best movie I've seen and many people likes this movie too.



2. Runway Beat
The great side of this movie is the effort that everyone shows in this movie. After watch this movie, I just realized everyone has their own talent and we should use it wisely. As for the story, it talks about a talented fashion designer in his high school that reveal everyone's abilities and talents. If you love harajuku fashion, you should watch it :)



3. Ai ore! Love me!
Again, it's a japanese movie and mostly the people who act in this movie wear lolita/aristocrat/gothic/other harajuku fashion.  The great side in this movie is the handsome girl and pretty boy, so it shows funny, cool, ciute sides which made a great impression.



4. Alice in wonderland
If you notice, maybe there're only a little connection in this movie related to Lolita. But in my opinion, the clothes that used by many characters in the movie give me so much inspiration for many styles of lolita. Other than that, I just thought the plot is really exciting and super great!



5. Cosplay the series
It's originally from Indonesia. Not only story about cosplay that appear here, but a story of a Lolita girl also appear. This movie tells me about how hard being a lolita, but there're so many things a Lolita should be proud.



So, that's all I can share to all of you. If you have time, maybe you can watch some of them and I'm sure you won't be disappointed. See you on my next post <3 :)

[Milanoo] yellow shooting star bag

Wohoo xD I'm super happy today because a bag that I got from milanoo is finally arrive :D Actually I shocked because it's arrived super fast. Just to let you know, my order had been proceed on 4 January and I got an email from them on 10 January for telling me that my bag was shipped. On 12 January (today), I received the package from milanoo by FEDex courier.
Fyi, I got this bag after join in a christmas contest that was hosted by lolita fashion clothing and luckily I'm the first winner at that time. Of course, I can't make it without my friends >w< thanks a lot guys!

Let's take a look at the package when my bag arrived.



I should say the packaging is secure and neat. It also come with a thank you card which makes the bag more classy. 



Also, they sew and make the bag neatly, so you can see that it looks good.



Not only cute outside, but it's also cute inside. As you can see in the photo, the bag has cute printing on the fabric.




Eventhough the bag is using hard materials for the front and back side, the middle side (where you put your items in there) is rather soft and fragile, which means you shouldn't put heavy things or too many things in there.

Last, here's the photo of me and my new bag xD


Rating: 8.5 / 10 

I should say the quality is great, but maybe you should consider the price too. Because the shipping fee to Indonesia and the tax is rather expensive TT^TT

Thanks for reading and have a great weekend <3

[L-email] brown+light brown lolita wig

Do you thought highlight wig was already usual or ordinary? For me, I ever thought like that :P So I try to buy new wig for my lolita project and it's combination of half brown and half light brown.

Here's the photo of my lolita project (fyi, the theme for this look is inspired by fairy) 
Costume, MUA, and model by me


and the photos of the wig (I took the picture from the website)


(front)

(back)


> Fibre: kanekalon fibre, which can be ironed up to 180 Celcius. But, I never tried to iron it.

> Smoothness: Normal, which I can say it's not too soft neither rough. But when I touch it, it will still feel like a wig.

> Cap: Not too big, I think it will only fit for people who has medium size.

> Thickness: It's rather thick, but not as thick as fantasy sheep or cc kids's wig. 

> Treatment: after using the wig, it's better to comb it to make the wig still good for next time. But, you need to be careful when combing it, because it's rather easy to fallout but not as bad as ghostcos wig.

>Weight: a little bit heavy when wearing with the twintails compared to cc kids's wig. But still acceptable

> Price: It's more cheap compared to other taobao's wig store such as cc kids, ghostcos, grand young, fantasy sheep, etc.


Rating: 7/10

*Notes:
I had bad experience while buying this wig. The seller send me a wrong wig (but not this one), and at first didn't want to exchange it. But I'm so lucky to have a good friend that helps me for negotiate to get the right wig.


Will I buy another wig from this store?
No, I'll try to find other brand that's more better (for the quality) and trustworthy.
