Review Time: HoneyColor.com

So, if you have read my last post, you probably know that I ordered circle lenses from Honey Color (I'll review them when I get them). For now, I'll review the site and customer service of HoneyColor.com

I thought the site was pretty and professionally designed. That is a big thing to me because I won't buy from a site that is unattractive and unprofessional design. So, my Dad place the order for me on Thursday. I received an email saying they are processing my order on the same night, which is pretty good I think. They sent me an email this morning informing me that my order had been shipped and that I will receive my package on December 29th. WHAT!? I mean it's great that they shipped my order at the time they are supposed to, but after Christmas??? When I first ordered it, the confirmation email had said it would arrive right before Christmas! It is my Christmas present and I really wanted it ON Christmas. So, there's a thumbs down for me: they lie about delivery times!!! Anyways, now I have to wait four days after Christmas to get my package. Great!! (not) Well, I did want express shipping, but my Dad ordered without me with my Uncle and he said I didn't need express shipping, that my package will come before Christmas even with standard shipping. No, Mr. KnowItAll, it's coming all the way from Malaysia! Don't you understand that if it's coming all the way from there, it will take a long time? No, because you're a KnowItAll. So, thanks to him, now my lenses are coming four days after Christmas!!! I'm not the happiest person right now...

So, I've been hearing some pretty bad reviews on HoneyColor. Complaints such as: they don't reply to email, they don't send tracking numbers, they never ship their packages, they don't refund, they send refunds quicker than it takes to ship packages, they don't give reasons why they didn't send their packages, it takes forever for packages to come,and many more. But, they replied to my emails and they already shipped my package. Hopefully, nothing bad happens from here. I thought the customer service was the same as Zappos, which has very good service reviews. They sent my package out at the same time and it took the same amount of time to reply to my emails. They both sent me tracking information that didn't work right away, but that's how tracking numbers work. They don't give information right away. Overall, I thought HoneyColor's customer service was decent and acceptable.

When I get my lenses, if I don't have problems like other people, I'll tell you how my service has went from this point and review the lenses.

Wanna buy lenses from them?

I also have their site banner on my sidebar. Yes! That is what I wanted! Woo-Hoo!!!

Wishlist: New Curling Iron

I have a boring, old school, small metal barrel curling iron! I want a modern, adjustable heat, ceramic barrel curler that is much easier to curl hair than my current one, that takes forever to heat up and gets really hot, and takes a long time to make satisfactory curls.

But... the question is... which one do I want?! There are so many good sounding curling irons! Which one is the best?!

Here's what I'm thinking:

Conair You-Curl???


Here's what the Conair site says its features are:
-Conical iron
-Instant style with no clamp-- simply wrap
-fast and easy, with no kinks
-tourmaline ceramic technology offers more protection, reduces frizz, helps eliminate static, and no damaging hot spots
-powerful ceramic heater
-30-second instant heat
-Ultra-high heat levels-- 400 degrees F/ 204 degrees C
-Auto shutoff
-LED indicator lights
-Professional length line cord
-Limited five year warranty on the You Curl iron

Depending on where you buy it, it cost from around $40.00- $30.00

Sound pretty good huh? Some of the things are just fancy talk to make you buy it, but overall it has everything I want! Especially the fact that is creates loose, bouncy curls instead of tight curly-Qs; it has no clamp, as well. Clamp marks are so annoying -_-

Bed Head Tigi Maxxed Out Curling Iron???



Bed Head Tigi says it has these features:
-Ceramic Technology; for softer shinier loose curls, high heat preserves hair's natural moisture for styles without frizz
-Tourmaline Technology; for ultimate shine, volume, and healthier looking styles
-30 Second Fast Heat-Up
-Rheostat Dial with Multiple Heat Settings
-On/ Off buttons
-On indicator light
-Tangle-free swivel cord
-Cool tip & built in safety stand

This one costs $21.99

 psst, that's cheaper than the You-Curl and it almost has all the same features as it, excluding the fact that is has a clamp, but it's also pink!!! I think it's a great deal for a great sounding, good reviewed curling iron! It has everything I want (@_@)!!!



Remington TStudio Large Pearl Ceramic Professional Styling Wand


Remington Products tells me it has these features:
***warning! this is quite a lot

Gorgeous salon-created curls are a breeze with the new TStudio Large Pearl Ceramic Professional Styling Wand. Featuring a high-tech ceramic wand infused with real pearl, this patent-pending technology provides the most advanced ceramic surface for the smoothest glide on the market.

This must-have styling tool offers easy-to-read digital controls  and heats up to salon-standard 410 degrees F so you get picture perfect curls that last all day. The multifunctional tool has a cone shaped design offering a variety of dimensions to meet your style needs.
 -Patent pending ceramic pearl technology for the smoothest salon finish ever

-Creates professional tight & loose curls
-410 degrees F salon high heat

Hmm... that sounds pretty fancy-smancy. Well, this also has all of the things I want in it! This choice is going to be so hard! Ugh!!

Honey Color Circle Lenses

Today I was reading Xiaxue's blog and I came across one of her sponsors, Honey Color. So I went on their site and started browsing their selection of circle lenses. I found the same exact ones I was going to buy from Pinky Paradise. Yeah, I decided not to buy any of the circle lenses in my circle lenses post. I decided I really like the EOS Candy Magic King Size Blue contact lenses. They are so blue and big and pwetty and AMAZING!! Turns out they are almost $10 cheaper on Honey Color than Pinky Paradise and even express shipping is cheaper than Pinky Paradise!! That means I have more of a chance that my daddy will buy them for me (◕◡◕) hehehe!! and they come with an adorable animal contact case!! Oh how wonderful this site is!! My total order came out to $47.50 including shipping!! That is very cheap for my Christmas Wish List!! I can't wait until I convince my daddy to order these for meee!! Hopefully he will, since I don't got enough money to buy them. Plus, what else is he going to buy me for Christmas??? 


So Honey Color is the way to go when buying circle lenses!!!  


Here's a look at what I am buying: 


EOS Candy Magic King Size Blue circle lenses
Original $25.90 $20..70
comes with free animal case!!

Rohto C3Moist Contact Lens Eye Drops 13 mL
$11.90
I'm afraid of getting dry eyes and my lenses shrivelling up and moving around my eyes so I wanna order these eyedrops. Unfortunately, the drops I originally wanted are out of stock.
Here's a picture of my order: 
You see, only 47.50 for all of it plus EXPRESS shipping!! To me, that's absolutely AMAZINGLY AMAZING!!

Me Like Candy Doll

I've always liked and wanted Candy Doll makeup so I thought I might blog about some of  the makeup I want from it. P.S. there are a lot of good sites that sell Candy Doll makeup online if you're looking for it (^_^) 
enjoy: 
Mineral face powder: a light, perfecting powder (i love loose mineral powder)
Lip Gloss in Macaroon Pink: you gotta love Candy Doll lip gloss it is so pretty and light i would buy it in every shade, macaroon pink happens to be my favourite due to it's amazing light pink pigment
Liquid Foundation Shade #01: I've heard some great reviews on Candy Doll foundation so I really want to try it. It's supposedly is a really good, light feeling base

Cheek Colour in Strawberry Pink: This blusher is absolutely freaking AMAZING! look at the brightness and pinkness of it. This probably has to be my MUST GET item from Candy Doll. I can never find a blusher in such a bright pink like this from other makeup brands. 
Lip Concealer: this is a biggy because I can never find lip concealer from other makeup brands. Right now I use regular face concealer, but it comes off too easily and makes my lip colour look glumpy. 
Cream Eye Shadow in #01 Gold: I love cream eyeshadows, they are creamy and easy to apply while being super pigmented and long lasting. I happen to love the shade of this particular eyeshadow. It's a shimmery light cream colour. I absolutely love cream coloured eyeshadows. It's like vanilla, just an eyeshadow. 
Highlights in Marshmallow Purple: I love highlighter, but it always comes in a silvery white colour, never pinkish or anything to bring out natural pigments in your skin. This highlight is a pastel purpely pink.
Lipstick in Ramune Pink: I love the pale pastel pink of this lipstick. I also think it wold pair off well with the pink macaroon coloured lip gloss (^_^)

That's it (^o^) so if anyone knows a product similar to any of these, PLEASE let me know so I don't have to order this brand all the way from Japan.

wishlist: M.A.C. cosmetics

M.A.C Cosmetics has an awesome thing where you can customise an eyeshadow palette. I absolutely love this because then I won't have any colours that I disfavour in my palette. I don't like bright shadow colours. I like very neutral, golden or pinkish shades. Here's a palette I made called Yumi. It has a lot of browns, greys, pinks, and whites. 
The shades in my Yumi palette are (starting from first colour, top row, far left): Charcoal Brown, Gesso, Folie, Motif, Sushi Flower, Brown Script, Coppering, Smut, Sweet Lust, Idol Eyes, Silver Ring, Pink Freeze, Phloof!, Swish, and Pink Venus. 


Lip Makeup:
M.A.C Prep + Prime lip primer 
M.A.C Sheen Supreme Lipstick in Supremely Confident: a light, pinkish nude colour, looks like the perfect shade for nudy lips
Face Makeup:
M.A.C Mineralize Skinfinish Natural in light: a light soft pale beige, matter finish pressed mineral powder
M.A.C Cremeblend Blush in So sweet, So easy: a creme blush in a bright yellow pink shade
Eye Makeup:
M.A.C Eye Pencil in Ebony: a regular eye pencil in a pitch black shade 
M.A.C Penultimate Eye Liner in Rapid Black: pen style, liquid eyeliner in a true black shade 
Those are just some more things I'm saving my money up for! I hope I magically earn up a ton of cash so I can buy everything on my wishlist

wishlist:spirithoods

NEED to save up more money!!! I was looking on the net today at some gyaru blogs and mag scans and what do i see? SPIRIT HOODS!!! I want one, they are so cute! I want a kitty or foxy one! The prices range depending on where you buy them. 
Here are some pics of them: 




How cute (=^..^=)

wishlist:ciclelenses

do you see them? those circle lenses? THEY'RE AMAZING \(*O*)/!!!! they are super nudy blue, and i want them. They're perfectly gal and dolly and they are pretty natural looking despite circle lenses not being all that natural. I'm going to work on getting them. I'm kinda broke right now. I just spent all my allowance on new makeup and lingerie from VS. I gotta earn up some more cash for these lenses. Another thing I love about these lenses is that they're a deep, sparkling blue. My eyes are a greenish, greyish blue with a yellowish colour around my pupil. I think they're pretty creepy, sicne they are coloured like a cat's eyes, but I'm always complimented on them. However, I love deep blue eyes. They remind me of the eyes of the unicorn in the "The Last Unicorn"; like deep, endless pools of water. 
So here are some more pictures of these lenses, adore them: 





ahhhh, how wonderful (^_^)


so, i'll be posting a lot today because I'm hyped up on caffeine and i have a lot of ideas for posts and don't wanna wait to post them because I'll forget my fresh new ideas. so stay tuned there will be more nonsense to come! (^_^)
