Ichibankao.com mini haul

The announced mini shopping haul from Ichibankao.com arrived and I went home to pick it up last weekend!
I got Visee Blackish Forming Eyes in color B-4 (ichibankao's price, includes shipping already, ¥1900), Candydoll Cheek Color Peach Pink (¥1900) and Rohto Lycee eyedrops for Contact Lens (¥1100). So together all that was ¥4,900, including shipping.

The Visee Blackish Forming Eyes palette is really nice! The colors work perfectly together and I will be definitely using it for a party look, with lots of eyeliner and lashes, or for day looks, just a little bit or top-right violet ot bottom-right plum-beige-y kind of violet instead of eyeliner, for example! The black is generic matte black, good for applying over your pencil eyeliner, to help it stay in place. The lightest shade has a lot of opacity and some sparkles and works really cute as a all over base or highlighter color. It could be just used as the main shadow as well!
Now, I myself was wondering too, as probably some of you have, what is the difference between Blackish Forming Eyes palettes and Brilliance Forming Eyes palettes from Visee. Well, the main difference is, in Blackish, the bottom left shadow is a matte, opaque black. In Brilliance palette, the bottom left is a cream eyeshadow - in shades of golden & beige and it is meant to use as a base to make your eye makeup look more sparkly! (Review and swatches of A-2 here.) Also, from the names of the series, Blackish is for creating a dark, dramatic look, and Brilliance for a light, day-time, sparkling eye! :D
(The 3 shades go toghether so perfectly! <33 They are not as much as spakly, but have a little bit of pearl iridescence to them. As always click and zoom in the photo, they are big!)
I kind of want all of the Brilliance palletes now... 8D

Now, I already have tons of blushes, but I talked myself into getting this one, because I didn't have a shade like that yet... right??? xD Well, buying this Candydoll Peach Pink blush was a great choice!!
It is sooooo light and at first I was applying it was going like "wth, where is it?!", but then I went to the bathroom to wash my hands and on my cheeks it looked like the perfect baby pink cheek that Matsuwaka tsubasa always wears! :D It looks like you were outside all day long and your cheeks are a little bit pink from the sun! OMG!! I love this blush! <3333333 Absolutely a must buy, and if you like Popteen or Popsister you will love it! My only complain is it seems a little bit small for the price. It is a powder blush, not cream blush, and I like super pink cheeks so I apply quite a lot I think, and I wonder how long it will last.... It will look amazing on darker skin colors <3 and it would create a porcelain doll look on pale girls! (I am currently around MAC's NC20-25 on my face)
So overall, LOVE IT, get it, share the love 8D

And last but not least, the eye drops, Rohto Lycee eyedrops for Contact Lens....
Weeeeellll..... xD I didn't know they were those menthol eye torturing eye drops you guys!!!! D: I hate those kind of drops! Damn! xD But! Since I bought them, I will try as much as I can to use them! xDD I must admit they are not that bad actually. On the "freshness" scale on the packaging it said they are around 3 out of 5, so they don't burn your eyes out imidiately. ;D And the fresh feeling is kind of nice. I will be definitely trying to use those drops after whole day of worl in front on my computer. Do you know those menthol eye drops? Love them or hate them? Ughh... I was hoping those will be just sth like candy scented cute eyedrops, not those suitable for a penalty game! xD lol

In other news. I moved, I am enjoying it a lot, going out a lot too, I was watchign all the semi-finals and the WORLD CUP finals yesterday, all in bars, which is a lot of fun, but I need to pick bars where there is air conditioning and preferably no smoking rule.... My eyeeeesss.. (T_T')
                      
Anywhoo, congratulations to Spain, even though the final wasn't pretty and had so many fauls and the judge was crazy!!! D: Spanish goal keeper, Casillas, did an amazing job though! I still think it should be Germany though, I fell love with Die Mannschaft <3333333  And especially Özil, heeey~ xD (I find him super cute though, seriously 8D) But I love the whole team and not for their looks, but for how they play! And there are also so many Polish players, I love them! Podolski, Kloze, Trochowski are all of Polish descent! And they kick ass <3 And Muller is cute too, Schweinsteiger, omg! Amazing! I can't believe how young the players in Die Mannschaft are, but they played soooo well. Much love, World Cup was great and exciting! :D
(ah my babiess!! 8D) Football is a really great sport! Also all the crazy football tumblrs bring me sooo much LOL!!! xD Torres on Torres or David take me to your Villa... xD Lol forever!

  3. I really want the blusher! I was considering getting the orange colour but I'm very inexperienced so I thought it would be better to stick with a more traditional colour ^^

  4. those eyedrops seem pretty cool, the idea of "refreshing" eyedrops is new to me though, seems like something i might try if I'm really tired! and the pink sound like a really nice colour!

  7. I heard that the Candydoll blush in Strawberry Pink is very pigmented. Usually in the mags they seem to combine the two. :)
