EOS Cotton Gray Review (G-211)

My EOS "Cotton Gray" Review

                                                                                        

 ■Product Code: EOS G-211

 ■Diameter: 14.5mm 

 ■Base Curve: 8.7mm

 ■Water Content: 38-42%

 ■Expiration: Good for a year

Okay, so I got the lenses last week and wore it yesterday. Before buying my lenses, I really thought hard on which design I would choose. I try to search for reviews and photos of it in actual. Hence, I came down on choosing EOS Cotton Gray. I had a Geo 15mm lens before so now I tried a 14.5mm diameter lens.

Here's a close up look of the lenses:

COLOR & DESIGN ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥

              → Yes 4 out of 5! I know now why It is called cotton gray, coz the edge of the lenses are kind of cottony in effect. It's design and color are so vibrant! In my own opinion, these color doesn't care if you have dark or light eyes. The color of the lens doesn't depend on what natural eye color that you have. So if you like a lens that is true to color, this one is it! Downside? Honestly, It's not really what I've expected to be. I expected somewhat subtle and natural looking gray for me but this one is not compared to my previous GEO WMI-245 (Sugar gray). If you want "vampire-looking" lens.. this has potential LOL

ENLARGEMENT  ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥

              → 3 out 5 which is fine for me coz I'm not going for a dolly-eye effect on purpose right now. What I'll advice is that 14.8mm or 15mm lenses are the size to go for if you're looking for a dolly-eye effect.

COMFORT  ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥

              → It's not stingy on first try. It's easy to put on my eyes. Super lightweight that I can't barely feel I have something on my eyes. I tried wearing it for 5 hours or so without me lubricating my eyes. Yeah, maybe that's why they call EOS lenses as breathable lenses hehe (^.^)

OVERALL  ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥

             → I love these lenses. I somehow felt a bit strange because last time my gray lenses are subtle gray.. This one is more of a vibrant gray. But it's nice to try something new, right?

Here's the lenses in different lighting:

How about you guys? Have you tried EOS lenses before? What can you say about it?

My Simple Birthdate ♥

HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO ME!!!

Last Friday (March 23rd) is my Special Day (^_^)....I just had a simple birth-date with my husband and my son..

Here in our country, it's traditional to go to church when it's your birthday. As we all know, we Filipinos are religious. So that afternoon, we went to church.... Thank God for giving me another year to live.. then went to eat and dine afterwards.. my celebration was as simple as that.. I'm 23 years old and I chose to celebrate simple this year.. In fact, I enjoyed my night celebrating with people that I love the most ♥  

But, my best-est and closest friends are begging for a get together.. maybe we'll have a couple of drinks this week ;p

Here are some Photos I have on my Special Day ♥ ♥ ♥ ---------------heavy picture post

 BTW, I'm using NYX Soft Matte Lip Cream in Milan here :)

How about you, how do you celebrate your special day? Do you like extravagant celebration or just like me, a simple celebration is enough?

PS: I'll be having another NYX ang EOS Lens Review soon :)

Jeans!

I would love to have these jeans! Found them while I'm browsing in Photobucket and Google ♥

A Nice slim fit gives an outfit an "ooomph!" factor.. I ♥ it! 

Definitely nice Acid Washed Jeans! Love to get one of those :)

It's hard for me to wear loose, straight cut type of jeans 'coz my legs aren't that long.. and also,for me, straight cut jeans are so outdated, I think.. or maybe Slim-fit jeans are just so popular nowadays..

How about you, what kind or type of Jeans do you prefer?

NYX ♥ Soft Matte Lip Cream in Antwerp Review

Product: NYX Soft Matte Lip Cream (ANTWERP)

Product Code: SMLC 05

Here's my review for the NYX Soft Matte Lip Cream in Antwerp. I was excited to use this product because I read so many good reviews regarding this lip cream. Actually this is my first lip cream ever. I'm only used to lipsticks or just lip gloss growing up. And I'm a fan of Matte Lipsticks that's why I gave this baby a shot 'coz it's SOFT MATTE LIP CREAM ;p

Okay, so NYX is claiming this product as: Neither lipstick nor lip gloss—this is matte lip cream. A new kind of pout paint that goes on silky smooth and sets to a matte finish. Soft Matte Lip Cream is surprisingly durable and, unlike some matte lipstick formulas, also moisturizing. 

• YES, It definitely sets into matte a few minutes after applying it onto your lips.

• YES, It goes on smoothly when applied using it's applicator. But be careful on applying it, you should glide it evenly on your lips 'coz when you apply it unevenly, it'll will definitely not look good.

• It's matte so it emphasizes lip lines/cracks when it dries.

• Moisturizing? Yes at some point but avoid using this when you have "chappy-lip-days".. Not a good idea!

• You can apply it 2-3 swipes more meaning it's buildable but just be careful to over-apply it 'coz it will become cakey.

All in all, I really love the shade, It's corally-peachy tone really accentuates my skin tone. And I also love the fact that it sets into soft, velvety matte on my lips. I love the product. It's so worth the price. For only P325.00 (7.60 USD), It's really worth the price. 

I'm running an online shop so you can pre-order these at Going Lolita Online Shop.

Cheap Buys From the Streets of Quiapo :)

BERRY COOL NOTEBOOK & A SUNFLOWER PEN

Last Friday, i bought these 2 cute little things in the streets of Quiapo. FYI, Quiapo is a place near Sta. Cruz,Manila where it is known for it's market and also the Quiapo Church. It's Church is known by most Filipinos, may it be a devotee or not of Quiapo Church. Some people said that there's a miracle once you become a devotee of this Church especially the Black Nazarene Statue.

Okay, so here's a photo of the stuff I bought there.

I love the Sunflower Pen 'cos it has spring underneath the flower itself so it bounces when you're using the pen...And i like it! Am I that shallow?! LOL

And the Berry Cool Notebook caught my attention because of it's cute design, which i think is "Strawberry Shortcake", If I'm not mistaken.

All in all I bought these 2 cuties for only 20 PESOS (PHP).. Yes! 20-PHP Only ;)

If I still have an extra time, i would probably go back. But for those who would like to explore Quiapo Street, just be extra careful 'cos it's quite dangerous for some. It's much better if you would be accompanied by someone who's more familiar of Quiapo :)

NYX Round Lipstick in Frappucino

NYX Round Lipstick in Frappucino (LSS-632)

I'm so sorry for not posting for a long time. I'm quite busy with my online business and my family. The Holidays also made me and my family quite busy (-_-) And speaking of Holidays, it's that time of the year when you would probably be broke after! Bought gifts for my godchildren (BTW, I have 5 godchildren!)..Bought clothes for my little brother, my son and a whole lot more! 

Now, on to the NYX Round lipstick.. I'll make a review about the LSS-632 or most commonly know as NYX Round lipstick in Frappucino :) At first, I'm quite hesitant to try Round Lipsticks although I've read a lot of reviews on the net that it's a great product. I'm not really a fan of cream lipsticks 'cos I hate it when I my hair sticks on my lips. I usually like to dab some powder on my lips after putting lipstick. 

But for this product, I would say, I'll make an exemption (^_^) Because I really love it's shade. I can describe it as beigy-brownish-nude lipstick. One more thing that I love is when I apply this lipstick is that It glides on so smoothly.. and yes It's creamy! The smell is not so over the top. It's just right for me. I think It has a flowery scent. 

It's also very pigmented! It gives a great color pay-ff!

Next thing is that it's not drying at all, in fact i felt like it's hydrating.

One negative thing about it..? I think It's not that long-lasting..because of it's cream finish,  It's hard to avoid of the smudge tendencies. So when i'm wearing it, I'm trying my best to avoid on smudging it or I might end up having a messy face (0_o)

But I guess, you just have to be careful when wearing lipsticks.

All in all it's a great buy for 200 PHP ($4 USD) price.

As what you can see on the photo, It's very creamy! Right?

You can buy this for PRE ORDER at Going Lolita Online Shop
