Today I'm going to share my recent addiction. As mentioned in my previous posts, I was on vacation in the Philippines last month. There I discovered loom bands! For those of you who don't know, these are rubber bands loomed into bracelets, but you can also make charms and figurines. Both kids and adults make and wear them... in the Philippines at least. Here in Ireland, only kids make these. Anywho, let's begin!<br />

There are different brands of bands. The most popular and reliable is <b>Rainbow Loom</b>.</div>

I have<b> </b>rose jelly, glitter white and gold, tie-dye pink and white, opaque turquoise, glow in the dark, mixed jelly tie-dye, and skin colour. These retail in the Philippines at 180pesos or <span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">€</span>3, the glow in the dark are 210pesos or <span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">€</span>3.50. In Ireland you can only get them at Claire's Accessories for <span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">€</span>6. That's around the same price as ordering them on Rainbow Loom's website for $2.50 plus $6.23 shipping. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Here's how stretchy they are:</div>

Some say that the less stretchy a band is, the more it'll bounce back to its original shape after it gets stretched. Some brands can stretch up to 6 pegs, that's why Rainbow Loom markets theirs for having such property. But that's not quite so:</div>

The left column are the bands that I just stretched. See how different they look after. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
But that doesn't really bother me much. I like Rainbow Loom because their bands don't snap as easily. The cheaper ones you get in dollar stores or in eBay are a pain to work with. I've lost count how many times I had to start a bracelet all over again because a band broke. </div>

With that said, here are examples of cheaper bands:</div>

In the Philippines you can get these at no more than <span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">€</span>2 for 5 packs. But here in Ireland they retail at around <span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">€</span>2-3 per pack. They're ok quality. My problem with these is that each pack sometimes have varying shades and size of rubber bands. Check out this pack of brown bands:</div>

The <b>DIY</b> brand was my first loom kit. It's a nice beginner kit. But I don't like it because the rubber bands are very very fragile. They snap easily. Also the board pegs are so spaced out that they stretch the bands, causing them to discolour or snap.

But not all off-brand bands are low quality. The left pack is from an accessory shop in the Philippines called Egg. It can only stretch up to 3 pegs. The right pack are glow in the dark bands, which can stretch up to 7 pegs.</div>

<span style="font-size: large;"><b><u>So how do you spot bad quality bands?</u></b></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Here's a mini guide. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh8_LpzvYs9Uh51ycNLtkv-nWCfTvGCTz9I1c8j0ZSRr0gqaWr_bmMfBMA0kVQnbSRPVwZ5gnbOBZp-7q4gvJuZ1PRzzwx6NUc24STxkhzN89WCG0ZrYZElJMbU11fnghrc90IBeeXeLcwE/s1600/Photo+31-07-2014+13+47+40.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh8_LpzvYs9Uh51ycNLtkv-nWCfTvGCTz9I1c8j0ZSRr0gqaWr_bmMfBMA0kVQnbSRPVwZ5gnbOBZp-7q4gvJuZ1PRzzwx6NUc24STxkhzN89WCG0ZrYZElJMbU11fnghrc90IBeeXeLcwE/s1600/Photo+31-07-2014+13+47+40.jpg" height="320" width="320" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
The left band comes from the DIY kit. The middle band is from Egg. The right one is form Rainbow Loom. Notice that the DIY band has that ^ curl, while the other two are perfectly round.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg0FiPdPs8qZhttCN4uKG45-UFvYvu2fVlIFtyYAnh1tdo1VQ_fuOHkVLtB2rMxgyE0hEcbg-2F_Xd166SPcNj5i0eymq8iUe7vxN8UCPPW9E-L6b3mDPm5AqjZYclkwU7cYdGMth0iVmYp/s1600/Photo+31-07-2014+13+47+31.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg0FiPdPs8qZhttCN4uKG45-UFvYvu2fVlIFtyYAnh1tdo1VQ_fuOHkVLtB2rMxgyE0hEcbg-2F_Xd166SPcNj5i0eymq8iUe7vxN8UCPPW9E-L6b3mDPm5AqjZYclkwU7cYdGMth0iVmYp/s1600/Photo+31-07-2014+13+47+31.jpg" height="320" width="320" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
More often than not, that's where the breakage happens. The DIY band is also much thinner than the other two. The thinner the band, the more likely it'll snap. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
The point is there are cheaper (but still good quality) alternatives to popular brands like Rainbow Loom. You just have to watch out for them. With good bands, anyone can make loom band bracelets and other things. I'll leave you guys with a picture of all the bracelets I've made so far.</div>

<div style="text-align: left;">
As mentioned in my previous post, I went on a trip to the Philippines. I noticed there were tons of Japanese restaurants everywhere. I was at SM North when I found a super cute takoyaki place called Tamayaki. They had an ad for this super super cute plushie that you can get if you purchase so-and-so amount of takoyaki. Since I've always wanted to try takoyaki, plus I really want the plushie, I figured I'd bring my cousin Andrea along with me ('cause she loves everything Japanese like me!). </div>

The only downside about all this was the takoyaki itself. The taste was so strong you get sick of eating after one ball. By strong I mean it had way too much seasoning. Me and Andrea didn't get to finish them so we had to take 'em home. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
2 orders of takoyaki + 2 drinks + plushie = 800pesos / <span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">€</span>13. Not bad.</div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: left;">
I think they have branches in Australia and Hong Kong too. So should you ever find yourself in this shop, I suggest sharing one order between two people<br />

Now for <span style="font-size: large; font-weight: bold;">beauty products</span>. I was super happy there are Tony Moly and Etude House shops in practically every mall in the Philippines. I got a Tony Moly Face Mix finishing powder because I ran out of my MAC one (I'll post a review soon!). Freebie was a Tomatox tester which my mom used and loved so she got a proper sized one.<br />

Finally, circle lenses. I got 2 lenses which came in a package deal: Geo Nudy brown and Geo Olive/ Honey Wing brown (I'll post a review). It includes one travel size lens solution, contact lens home case (i.e. you use it for keeping lenses at home, and 2 normal lens cases (I'm already using the other one for the Nudy brown) ). The package cost 1500 pesos, which is <span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">€</span>25. Not bad eh.</div>

So here are the pictures (<span style="color: red;">warning: there are <b>loads</b></span>) :<br />
The first one is a purple-aqua-magenta-with a hint of yellow mix with a heart and star bead inside.<br />

As you can see, the oreo came in a little pouch which was covered in bubblewrap. Taylor the shop owner was really really nice. I contacted her before placing an order, because I'll be travelling next month and I was worried it wouldn't arrive on time. But she was super sweet and reassured me it'll get to me within 2 weeks. And it did! </div>

I chose i.Fairy because of the water content. If you want comfy lenses, choose ones with water content more than 37% (like GEO lenses) or even 42% (EOS). I used to wear EOS lenses and I find that they're only comfortable within the first month. i.Fairy is super comfortable. My last ones didn't start hurting until 5 months since I started wearing them. These lenses are the same, although I've only been wearing them for half a month. I can wear them for 8 hours without irritation or having to put eyedrops.<br />

I was looking for much natural looking lenses because the last one I had people were telling me how obvious they looked (they were golden- like Twilight vampire eyes golden). These were very natural. I took one star out because I would've liked them just a tiny bit lighter.<br />

These are 16.2mm. They're really big. I should've taken a comparison picture of my eye without the lenses <img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj8sfOCuwXIn8miqKyWn5RnZRtgIDI8vyq5WSRXvmFtAQGcRF-dkhtONKlpE1JGY5drfQGTNiaJF1LvPfzaQjs4oQW5zNGJwZw22ODSfNJ-srduUdCUuvrJSb9RPEqwntgFpiO_ZJjg5Lld/s1600/11.png" style="background: none repeat scroll 0% 0% transparent; border: 0pt none ! important;" /> Without eye makeup you're gonna look a bit stoned with dilated pupils.<br />

This morning my item finally arrived!! This is the final phase of my Taobao purchase. For those of you who missed the first two parts, I'm documenting the entire process of me buying something on Taobao using a shopping service! <a href="http://moreruki.blogspot.ie/2014/02/buying-on-taobao-phase-1.html" target="_blank">here</a> is part 1.. <a href="http://moreruki.blogspot.com/2014/02/buying-on-taobao-phase-2.html" target="_blank">here</a> is part 2.<br />
<br />
Now unto the review!<br />
<br />
<a name='more'></a>As mentioned in part 2 I picked Singapore Air mail as my shipping method because it's the cheapest. TaobaoRing told me that it'll take 15-30 days for the item to arrive, and at worst 2 months. On February 18 TaobaoRing shipped my item, and I got it today, March 13 (<b>14 days</b>). Actually according to the postal tracking it was already in Ireland since yesterday.<br />
<br />
Here's how it was packed:<br />

As mentioned in part 2, TaobaoRing told me that the seller sent in a free gift, which is a macaron earring. Here's a pic:</div>

It's surprisingly super super super light. I think it's made of styrofoam. What I find weird about this is that the seller sent me just that one earring. <img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjoIBImRO1XF_i2Vft9YHZf4GSQ5bHaT0WKcW3kKuOJzQ1KOtV9tB6MyF38BzNWg9orJMCIeuPj2bfB-GqagNHvckBkZEZQsN7tUx8Iu0k9XFYUTf-9y5iBLj5PRjjixUDzcxXXd86XVe4M/s1600/15.png" style="background: none repeat scroll 0% 0% transparent; border: 0pt none ! important;" /></div>

But yeah. So that's it! This is the first time I've ever used a Taobao shopping service and let me tell you I'm super pleased. I highly recommend <b>TaobaoRing</b>. Their customer service is excellent. They always reply really quick and are very helpful and polite. I've actually gone ahead and ordered two more of these bottle necklaces from another seller, still using TaobaoRing. </div>

This is Phase 2 of my Taobao purchase. As mentioned in Phase 1, which you can check out <a href="http://moreruki.blogspot.ie/2014/02/buying-on-taobao-phase-1.html" target="_blank">here</a>, I'm documenting the entire process of me buying something on Taobao using a shopping service! Now unto to the progress!<br />
<a name='more'></a><br />
I just got an email from Taobaoring this morning (Feb 17) saying that my item has arrived to their office.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi7bYWhKcQXFoS0dGgGg_6DmcO7rciGmzAsXithemwRcDYFvf6xq5wO7la9ceAIKPw3VGuKW2FpC2PNVgnSIsyzXk-TA0ahaH12q5AjIUv-WRSHtUtzryDJY21sUq-5fFYA6XT5HRoiR9ZH/s1600/Screen+shot+2014-02-17+at+14.13.48.png" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi7bYWhKcQXFoS0dGgGg_6DmcO7rciGmzAsXithemwRcDYFvf6xq5wO7la9ceAIKPw3VGuKW2FpC2PNVgnSIsyzXk-TA0ahaH12q5AjIUv-WRSHtUtzryDJY21sUq-5fFYA6XT5HRoiR9ZH/s1600/Screen+shot+2014-02-17+at+14.13.48.png" height="395" width="640" /></a></div>
So I then went on the website the make the <b>second payment</b>, which is for the international shipping. Now I've told them beforehand on email that I wanted to have the item shipped to me via Airmail. But I think usually there's a button somewhere where you specify which shipping method you want.<br />
<br />
Why did I pick Airmail? Because EMS is fast but expensive, and Airmail is fast-enough and much more affordable. According to their website, Singapore Airmail takes an average of 15-30 days. Worst case scenario it'll take 2 months (please God that won't happen<img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEitfe7mTPjCjBxdJvxkESHmk2WriDJITrbRGggRWGrix1gOSbz6L7bnH6zhohx01jALajzbi_Lvq8TIWdSiZAvpKZMt7izrsE-VaCnK2ZdMPOsuNwNzKDT7m55F94WLezrGVfgAamTZ2ddK/s1600/3.png" style="background: none repeat scroll 0% 0% transparent; border: 0pt none ! important;" />)<br />
<br />
When you go on their website to make the second payment, it'll show a photo of the item itself!<br />

<br />
<br />
Just what I wanted!! The colour is perfect! And the seller even threw in a macaron earring omg.<br />
<br />
Alright so after paying, I got this email:<br />

Hi everyone! I'm here to document my entire process of buying something on Taobao. I'll be using a shopping service, so I'll talk about which ones I considered, which one I went for and why. <b>Disclaimer: </b>I'm not getting paid for this. I don't work for them. I just thought this might be helpful for those on a budget like me, and have never used a Taobao shopping service.<br />
<br />
Anyway, let's start!<br />
<br />
<a name='more'></a>So if you've seen my wishlist, you'll know that there's this really cute necklace I want.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
I've never used a Taobao shopping service before, so I figured I'd try it out with a small purchase first.<br />
<br />
So I was looking for popular and reliable companies doing shopping service. It seems that the top 3 ones are <b>Taobaoring, Taobaomaster </b>and<b> Taobaospree</b>. Taobaospree is probably the most popular one, while Taobaomaster is the cheapest. Naturally I was drawn to Taobaomaster, why would anyone not go for the cheapest right? Well.. as I looked more and more into the company I was getting more skeptical about them. I didn't find even one blog review on them, compared to Taobaoring and Taobaospree. Also, they don't accept paypal, only credit card and money transfer.<br />
<br />
Taobaospree on the other hand was ok but the most expensive. I mean I got an invoice for the product and it says the total excluding international shipping is $16.86 (<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">€</span>12.7). Which isn't so bad I guess. But Taobaoring gave me a quote for $13.34 (<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">€</span>10.1). Thus, I decided to go for Taobao<u>ring</u>.<br />
<br />
So the first thing I had to do was place an order. It's pretty simple, just add the item to your cart. Then it tells you an estimate of how much you have to pay for the <b>first round of payment. </b>That includes the cost of the item and handling fee. Handling fee for Taobaoring is 30yuan, compared to Taobaospree with 50. For some reason it does NOT include domestic shipping (Taobao shipping the product to Taobaoring)... see "<i>Freight: 0 ¥</i>"... and Paypal fee. <br />

They then told me to wait until they've contacted the seller, to make sure my item is in stock. Throughout this I've been in constant contact with one of their people, and she's been very nice and helpful. She even asked me to point exactly which one I wanted. <br />
<br />
The next email was a confirmation that my item is in stock. In this email they've also added the domestic shipping fee.<br />

Here's a review of the product and Vent Online Store:<br />
<br />
<a name='more'></a>Vent Online Store is a Japanese website selling Liz Liza, Tralala and JugeETTA clothes, shoes, bags and accessories. They recently had an end-of-the-year sale lowering prices down to 70% off, so I grabbed the opportunity to get something!<br />
<br />
So I got this school uniform style cardigan, which comes in free size.<br />

It's suuuper pretty. One thing I noticed though was the quality of the fabric. It's really soft. Like really soft and smooth. But it's quite thin; you can see through whatever top you have inside. I don't know if that's a good thing or bad. See.. the thing is this product is retailed at ¥6195 (<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">€</span>47)! I looked at the tag and saw that it's 100% acrylic. I own other cardigans made of acrylic but this one has a different texture and thickness. I dunno. For the price I was expecting the quality to be comparable to cardigans from... say... Ralph Lauren. Meaning, I was hoping it'd be made of cashmere and/or wool, which are thicker and warmer fabrics.<br />
But oh well. It's still really pretty. I just wouldn't wear this outside in winter on its own.<br />
<br />
Here's me wearing it:<br />

So as I said I got this during their Winter sale. Originally it was ¥6195 (<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">€</span>47), but I got this for ¥3622 (¥3097 for the product itself, ¥525 shipping). That's <span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">€</span>27. Now what I did was I had it shipped to my bestfriend who lives in Chiba, and then he mailed to me. If you're going to use an online shopping service like Tenso, it'll cost you much more than that.<br />
<br />
I placed the order on January 8, it arrived to him on 13. He shipped it to me via EMS on 22, and it got to me on 27. Pretty quick.<br />
<br />
Funny thing, that weekend the package arrived was Kawaii International's episode on school uniforms.<br />

Hi there! If you've read my wishlist (top right tab), one of the things I listed there is Urban Decay's Naked palette. Now, as we all probably know, the Naked palette is pretty expensive. Here in Ireland it retails at around <span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">€</span>45. I don't really use eyeshadow much, mainly because I really suck at it. So if you're like me who doesn't have that kind of money to be splashing on something you wouldn't use that often, OR you're looking for a much cheaper but equally good alternative to Urban Decay's Naked palette, then you've come to the right place! Today I'll be reviewing Makeup Academy's Undressed Palette.<br />

My skin is tan, and as you can see most aren't showing very well. Shade 3 in particular is practically blending in with my skin. But I do <b>love</b> 1, 2 and 6. Naked 3 is full of these pinkish shades, that's why I wasn't interested in buying it.</div>

These eyeshadows are really pigmented, unlike <a href="http://view/" target="_blank">Superdry's duo palette</a>. Without a primer it lasted 6 hours without creasing, but would start fading in 4 or 5 hours. Still, that's pretty good!</div>

I don't have the Naked palette, so I can't compare the two. But from other reviews it seems that this palette is totally comparable to Naked. Personally, having tried this palette I really like it. Even if it's not an exact dupe of UD it's still really good by itself. </div>

This palette cost me <span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">€</span>10.85 (<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">€</span>4.85 for the palette, <span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">€</span>6 for shipping). Not bad compared to Urban Decay. I got it from <a href="http://www.muastore.co.uk/index.php/12-shade-undressed-palette" target="_blank">Makeup Academy's website</a>. But do note though that they sell out <b>really quick.</b> Last time they restocked it sold out in a day or two. Shipping took 9 days, probably because I live in Ireland and they're based in the UK. </div>

Last time I did a review on Dolly Wink's eyebrow mascara in shade 02 Mocha. Check it out <a href="http://moreruki.blogspot.ie/2014/01/dolly-wink-dupe-and-why-i-think-neither.html" rel="" target="_blank">here</a>. I mentioned there that I didn't really like it, and that I very very much prefer the Kiss Me Heavy Rotation eyebrow mascara. Thus, for this post I'm gonna talk about why!</div>

This is Kiss Me Heavy Rotation Coloring Eyebrow in 02 Orange Brown. This has been my go-to eyebrow mascara. I've already bought another one in case I start running out... which isn't any time soon. I've been using the same bottle for almost a year now!<br />
<br />
I got the first one from eBay for $13.45 or <span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">€</span>10. The stock one was from amazon Japan for <span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">€</span>5.50. Reasonable price.<br />

Her eyebrows are jet black. Yet, as you can see, it covered them pretty well. The colour is also much more natural-looking and not a weird yellow shade. The product is also long-lasting. This will stay on eyebrows all day. No need for touch-ups at all.<br />

Here is my review of Superdry's lip glaze/ lipgloss, which comes in the colour Shocking Pink.<br />
<br />
<a name='more'></a>I got mine from the Beauty Collective pack, which I reviewed <a href="http://moreruki.blogspot.ie/2014/01/superdry-beauty-collective-review.html" target="_blank">here</a>, and is part of my Stephen's Day Haul which you can find <a href="http://moreruki.blogspot.ie/2014/01/christmas-and-stephens-day-haul.html" target="_blank">here</a>.<br />

This is what it looks like. It's super cute and pink! This is what the applicator looks like:<br />

It's one of those lipgloss where you have to twist the pink rubber end in order for the product to come out. At first I couldn't figure out how to work it. I kept twisting the pink rubber but nothing's happening. Turns out it takes a while. This is what it looks like when it finally does:<br />

Very very cute and pink. I wish the lid/ cap was bigger because the sticky lipgloss gets all over it and it just looks messy.<br />
<br />
As for the product itself, it was REALLY sticky. I know it's lipgloss/ glaze. But man it was really sticky. Washing it off was a nightmare. But that also means that it last quite well.<br />
Regarding the colour, it being a lip glaze I don't expect for the colour to be pigmented.. and it isn't. Here's a swatch:<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhZucvGyOmG5pkMxiAuyme1SNECgd9MdIiFt7T6R9m-5yTPSu7QZEnvD3B-P61U2TfVcMPO_szcAoGSFXCOUFcMnA7njhaLf6ToY0-Ke5bM9W5iOLzmVFsfV5pxBDPG4S8Fgj-IiJoxOlsx/s1600/Photo+15-01-2014+15+00+33.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhZucvGyOmG5pkMxiAuyme1SNECgd9MdIiFt7T6R9m-5yTPSu7QZEnvD3B-P61U2TfVcMPO_szcAoGSFXCOUFcMnA7njhaLf6ToY0-Ke5bM9W5iOLzmVFsfV5pxBDPG4S8Fgj-IiJoxOlsx/s1600/Photo+15-01-2014+15+00+33.jpg" height="640" width="478" /></a></div>
As you can see, it's quite transparent as you would expect for a lip glaze. Yet, it has the slightest tinge of pink. Thus, I wouldn't suggest wearing this on it's own. This would be really nice on top of lipstick. What I don't get is why Superdry has four other shades of this thing. If this is "shocking pink", I wonder how pigmented their other shades of pink are. <br />

Today I'm going to review Superdry's Eye Pencil. It comes in the colour 'Thunderbolt Black'.<br />
<a name='more'></a>I got mine from the Beauty Collective pack, which I reviewed <a href="http://moreruki.blogspot.ie/2014/01/superdry-beauty-collective-review.html" target="_blank">here</a>, and is part of my Stephen's Day Haul which you can find <a href="http://moreruki.blogspot.ie/2014/01/christmas-and-stephens-day-haul.html" target="_blank">here</a>.<br />

On one end is the smudger, on the other is the lid with a pink rubber you see on pencils to help you grip it better. So I don't know why it's glued to the lid (<span style="background-color: white; font-family: 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 15px; text-align: justify;">ಠ_ಠ)</span> </div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: left;">
The quality of the pencil itself is quite cheap. But it doesn't matter because it does the job. I've had pencil eyeliners that don't apply well. Like, if you apply it, you barely get any product on. This is not the case for this one. One swipe and you get a very good amount of product. Here are some swatches:</div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
The bottom one looks smudge, but it's actually me applying it at an angle, which I think is the normal way of holding an eye pencil. So that's one thing I don't like about it. To achieve a perfect line like the top one, you need to hold the pencil straight. </div>

Smudge test (smudged a few seconds after applying):</div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
As you can see, the waterproof test shows that it didn't smudge as much as the smudge test. This is because for the waterproof test I let the product dry for a minute or so. I guess the moral of the story here is wait for the product to dry a bit before smudging it.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">

<div style="text-align: left;">
As mentioned, I got this as part of the Beauty Collective pack. Individually it's retailed at <span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">€</span>9.50. It's an ok price, I guess, maybe it could go a bit cheaper. But then again, you're really paying for the brand. Ah well... it's worth it. It's a good eyeliner, me thinks.</div>

Today I'll be reviewing Superdry's Eyeshadow Duo. This one comes in the colours 'Mudflat' and 'Cream'.<br />
<a name='more'></a>I got mine from the Beauty Collective pack, which I reviewed <a href="http://moreruki.blogspot.ie/2014/01/superdry-beauty-collective-review.html" target="_blank">here</a>, and is part of my Stephen's Day Haul which you can find <a href="http://moreruki.blogspot.ie/2014/01/christmas-and-stephens-day-haul.html" target="_blank">here</a>.<br />

Now unto the review! The palette itself is really cute. It's 2 inches in diameter. Looking at the palette I really really love the colours 'cream' is the lighter one, 'mudflat' is the darker one. They also come in two other colour combinations which are 'blackboard and fog' (black and grey), and 'grape and sunflower' (violet and light orange). So if I had to choose between the three, I would totally go for this one. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
The packaging is very nice. It's a slidey case. Although it is quite heavy because of this:</div>

That's the back of the palette. It has that tin heavy metal plating with the words "professional beauty official superdry" etc engraved on it. It's really cool and all, but it makes the whole thing unnecessarily heavier. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Now, as much as I love how the colours look on the palette, I can't say the same with how they look on me. Here are some swatches taken at different lighting:</div>

Yep, you can barely see them. Partly because I'm tan. But these eyeshadows have a very very low pigmentation. If you rub your finger against the palette, you'll barely get any colour. You need to keep rubbing for the colour to start staining your finger. <span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">But </span>if you use a brush, which most people do, the colour transfers better. It's still not the best, but you'll get more colour that way. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
I tried the 'cream' on my eye a few days ago and I gotta say, the colour stayed very well. It creased a tiny bit, but that's because I didn't use a primer. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
As for the price, again I got mine as part of the Beauty Collective pack, but individually these retail at <span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">€</span>12.50. They also sell single colour eyeshadows for <span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">€</span>9.99, which comes in the colours green, blue and brown.</div>

As part of my Stephen's Day/ Boxing Day Haul, which you can find <a href="http://moreruki.blogspot.ie/2014/01/christmas-and-stephens-day-haul.html" target="_blank">here</a>, I bought Superdry's Beauty Collective. I think it's only recently that Superdry released their beauty products line. This beauty pack contains a purple nail filer, nail polish in colour 'Punk Pink', a pencil eyeliner in colour 'Thunderbolt Black', lip gloss in colour 'Shocking Pink', and a duo eyeshadow palette in colours 'Mudflat and Cream'. Everything comes inside a neon pink makeup bag. I was going to review each item in this post but I figured it'd be too long. So for this post I'll just be reviewing the pack as a whole, and the makeup bag.<br />
<a name='more'></a><br />
This is what it looks like:<br />

<div style="text-align: left;">
'Super' in big bold letters, 'dry' at the back. Ever wonder what those kanji mean? Well, when my Japanese friends came to Ireland they were laughing at Superdry for their nonsense Japanese. Kinda like Engrish writing in Japan. <span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; white-space: nowrap;">極度乾燥(しなさい)</span><span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; white-space: nowrap;"></span> literally means Super dry, and しなさい is an order to do something. But yeah.<br />
<br />
I really really love the case. It's my favourite part of the whole pack. It's neon pink with orange writing, which is exclusive for the Beauty Collective pack. It comes in other colours like neon pink with purple writing, orange with pink writing, purple with orange writing, etc etc.<br />
Retail price for the makeup bag is <span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">€</span>13.<br />
The bag is quite bulky (7.5 inches long, 3 inches thick, and a little over 4 inches high), meaning you can fit loads of stuff in it.<br />

If it wasn't thick enough, it couldn't possibly hold all of these inside:<br />

The whole pack is <span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">€</span>30, but you can buy the products individually. What's good about this pack is that the products are the same size as when you buy them individually. What I mean by that is most packs only give you a sample size for each item. That's not the case here. But still I think the price is a bit expensive for the quality of the products. What do I mean by that? Wait for the individual product reviews. For the price you pay it's really just you paying for the brand name, in my most humble opinion <a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgHZRIppiW8ZkpuxQRkGATOzwtmKEjxatBW3OyzBKdx3eUEWiUuhHu2-skbYtzmEsTqbn6jVqGYgUgR3CdYrKCLx1Y4lBmNgpgwx309edI1KuiMxRNeByima9xxs0upqqaO4QphgwVoUwec/s1600/14.png" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; display: inline !important; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em; text-align: center;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgHZRIppiW8ZkpuxQRkGATOzwtmKEjxatBW3OyzBKdx3eUEWiUuhHu2-skbYtzmEsTqbn6jVqGYgUgR3CdYrKCLx1Y4lBmNgpgwx309edI1KuiMxRNeByima9xxs0upqqaO4QphgwVoUwec/s1600/14.png" style="background: none repeat scroll 0% 0% transparent; border: 0pt none ! important;" /></a><br />
<br />
But yeah. Each of the items come in a variety of different shades and colours. Of course if you're planing on buying these individually, it'd cost more than <span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">€</span>30. But buying individually is good because you have a choice on what items to get and the colour. Although if you want to try out Superdry's beauty line I'd say go for the Beauty Collective. They also have another pack called "Bento Beauty Box" which includes a nail file, nail polish, mascara, liquid eyeliner (I think), a compact mirror, and something called lip fix... all inside a box... which is why I didn't go for that one.<br />

Would I buy it again: As a pack, no. This is one of those things where once you have one, you don't really need another one.<br />

It's that time where shops are starting to bring in new lines, and desperately trying to get rid of their sale items. Further down sales!!<br />
<br />
I didn't buy much since I've already bought loads from the last haul, which you can find <a href="http://moreruki.blogspot.ie/2014/01/christmas-and-stephens-day-haul.html" target="_blank">here</a>. Also, there weren't much stuff left because when I got these, it was already 3 weeks or so since the sale began. But here's what I got:<br />
<br />
<a name='more'></a>First thing I noticed when we got to the mall was the shop Bershka with a big "FURTHER REDUCTIONS" sign at the shop front. Now, I didn't mention this shop in my last haul post because their sale was absolutely pathetic. They'd have something on sale for <span style="font-family: 'Courier New', Courier, monospace;">€</span>20, for example, but when you look at the original price it'd be like <span style="font-family: 'Courier New', Courier, monospace;">€</span>23. Like seriously? <span style="font-family: 'Courier New', Courier, monospace;">€</span>3 off? What a great bargain. Thus I didn't buy anything. And so did most people on Stephen's day. I honestly didn't see anyone with a Bershka shopping bag in that mall that day. But in fairness they had <span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">loads</span> of lovely tops. I'm really happy they finally decided to lower the prices a little bit more. <span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">But </span>they only had large sizes left<img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh9t6I5O3lI3Ddkp0P93xxoMNf80g6tgRbfWB2YMocDBTkNYUbaZZOlDnN1rfuIE7oRYr8Ac-QZ2qODmsdRaUBJYzNcdMNdntXdYjl76i14xuwSrxWZtRIzBUcsLWyXciW7EjCylqL5o6xC/s1600/15.png" style="background-attachment: scroll; background-color: transparent; background-image: none; background-position: 0% 0%; background-repeat: repeat repeat; border: 0pt none !important;" /><span style="text-align: center;">.

Mom wanted it originally. It's a size medium though so it didn't fit her. Thus she ended up getting it for me instead. She really has style! It's very Liz Lisa- like. This one was <span style="font-family: 'Courier New', Courier, monospace;">€</span>20, from <span style="font-family: 'Courier New', Courier, monospace;">€</span>36.<br />
<br />
This next one is from River Island. Again, mom spotted it and thought it'd look good on me. Also, because it has stars. I looove stars.<br />

As you can see, this jeans has an ombre-effect. Never seen jeans like these before. These were <span style="font-family: 'Courier New', Courier, monospace;">€</span>12 from <span style="font-family: 'Courier New', Courier, monospace;">€</span>50! The fabric is quite unusual as well. The top part sometimes looks dark (as seen above), and other times it looks light (as seen in this closeup):<br />

The next one is from Kildare Village outlet centre. Again I got stuff from Jack Wills and Superdry.<br />
Again again, mom spotted this one from Jack Wills. I think I should re-name this post to "Clothes My Mom Spotted Haul".<br />

<br />
Hello everyone! Today I'm gonna talk about Dolly Wink Eyebrow Mascara. Originally I called this post "Dolly Wink Dupe", hence you will see the word <i>dupe </i>in most, if not all, of the photos. But it was pointed out to me that "dupe" means that a different brand is copying another product. However, this post is about copying a product and trying to make it look exactly the same as the original. Thus, whenever you see the word "dupe", change it to "replica".<br />
<br />
Anyway, I got the original one from Amazon Japan (<a href="http://moreruki.blogspot.ie/2013/09/package-mini-haul-amazon-japan-co-my.html" target="_blank">here</a> is a link to my haul post for that one), while the fake one was an omiyage from my cousin who got it from a facebook seller. So for this post I'll be showing you guys a comparison of the two. I'll also show you other Dolly Wink products that have fake versions. And while I'm at it, I'll also be reviewing the original one, which comes in the shade number 2 Mocha. Let me tell you now that I do <b>NOT </b>like this product and I won't be buying it again. Now unto the comparison!<br />
<br />
<a name='more'></a>Let's first look at the packaging:<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjwJE8TU8TGXSRxt8GRrQ1t4TK6aJ-R2288NaMeduJD_8UIwhrCp7whqFxTj4BiG0wdC9M4qqQTImrYcIiKx6E4HmHM0XclSjQ5MsTNPIBmL8EVB_YBrJ4CG7OgOr23g-N7gZAnMC1vKukY/s1600/Photo+08-12-2013+11+20+05.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="478" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjwJE8TU8TGXSRxt8GRrQ1t4TK6aJ-R2288NaMeduJD_8UIwhrCp7whqFxTj4BiG0wdC9M4qqQTImrYcIiKx6E4HmHM0XclSjQ5MsTNPIBmL8EVB_YBrJ4CG7OgOr23g-N7gZAnMC1vKukY/s1600/Photo+08-12-2013+11+20+05.jpg" width="640" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="clear: both;">At first glance they look very very alike, except for one obvious difference:</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="clear: both;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiwrOX__U9L6iKDAZ0u2Bhy-ihotzfxHbUxOtSoY8d36Ck61VGkFKnOrGK0xCGWpndV-S2pnGz1uuOw4__GoyzpSuYG6SpQbRYABmnRjRNEjExPqwtZjIqOrN4qOjVTtHMg3_u4MCUZSX7x/s1600/5azeu.gif" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="300" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiwrOX__U9L6iKDAZ0u2Bhy-ihotzfxHbUxOtSoY8d36Ck61VGkFKnOrGK0xCGWpndV-S2pnGz1uuOw4__GoyzpSuYG6SpQbRYABmnRjRNEjExPqwtZjIqOrN4qOjVTtHMg3_u4MCUZSX7x/s1600/5azeu.gif" width="400" /></a></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="clear: both;">As you can see, the fake one doesn't have the number label. </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="clear: both;">Now let's look at the back. The one on the right is the original, the left one is fake:</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg6TEKB2XhnvtOhBFKj1MJSrczPIRu69lEyDN7uC6oYrZaj2Ai5rdnSktjuu7-m0ImMMRmyiF5UO73NWsUc6BP7x8xor7czjVubPcomrDYUQKODRuSCk7xu6Mp0D4AooS5q2xAm2M_PwUAc/s1600/Photo+08-12-2013+11+17+48.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="478" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg6TEKB2XhnvtOhBFKj1MJSrczPIRu69lEyDN7uC6oYrZaj2Ai5rdnSktjuu7-m0ImMMRmyiF5UO73NWsUc6BP7x8xor7czjVubPcomrDYUQKODRuSCk7xu6Mp0D4AooS5q2xAm2M_PwUAc/s1600/Photo+08-12-2013+11+17+48.jpg" width="640" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="clear: both;">Exactly the same?? Not quite, although the differences are very very minor. </span>In the next photo, the one on the left is the original one. I've circled the parts that are missing on the fake one. As for the writing, they're exactly the same.</div>
<div>

<tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;">Right= original. Left= fake</td></tr>
</tbody></table>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="clear: both;">Now let's look at the product itself:</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiF38LbXJ2qgzmAQ0I3MJg6TpdXJbAV6CF19JuCgVPTTqnCc9ZS2-2ascH3rPxBZHfr9fmKUsB_CyNT1mJxguNY0yOYWec4FsoTUSnLh5xUoonBoxyWr8FDkK0Hyfl_yxPdCht8AmcTrNe4/s1600/Photo+08-12-2013+11+13+45.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiF38LbXJ2qgzmAQ0I3MJg6TpdXJbAV6CF19JuCgVPTTqnCc9ZS2-2ascH3rPxBZHfr9fmKUsB_CyNT1mJxguNY0yOYWec4FsoTUSnLh5xUoonBoxyWr8FDkK0Hyfl_yxPdCht8AmcTrNe4/s1600/Photo+08-12-2013+11+13+45.jpg" width="478" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="clear: both;">This is where the differences are much more obvious. The replica version is much more orangey, while the original is more of a peach colour. The bottle holding the liquid itself for the fake one is a bit taller than the original AND much more glossy. By glossy I mean look at the way the light is reflecting the bottle. </span><br />
<span style="clear: both;">Now let me show you the bottom of the bottle:</span><br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiCHWWjU5ilPycpvQL9T6_fX8-_QzHun915-C67Tq8k-QAGV78TVLYDsER01LgSvLwm4OsB7QVCQj02kFe_Rg9xYRN1ZjgRY2nIdT-aCJklNjy5rEvrFnwNpWwcrMpFFDT6tk6YjXRcw4Wv/s1600/Photo+08-12-2013+11+14+28.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="466" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiCHWWjU5ilPycpvQL9T6_fX8-_QzHun915-C67Tq8k-QAGV78TVLYDsER01LgSvLwm4OsB7QVCQj02kFe_Rg9xYRN1ZjgRY2nIdT-aCJklNjy5rEvrFnwNpWwcrMpFFDT6tk6YjXRcw4Wv/s1600/Photo+08-12-2013+11+14+28.jpg" width="640" /></a></div>
<span style="clear: both;">As you can see, the labels are totally wrong. The numbers correspond to the three different shades this eyebrow mascara comes in. 01 is Milk Tea, Mocha is 02, while 03 is Cocoa. If you look at the replica version, it has 01 written at the top, then in the middle 03 ココア (Cocoa). It also has that extra AJ1 written at the bottom. Now looking at the original we see a big red code stamped on it, which is clearly not present on the replica one. As for the writing, again, they're both the same. </span><br />
<span style="clear: both;"><br /></span>
I then tested the products unto my sister's eyebrows (because mine are practically non-existent<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEivxEElFVTvBokqRaaaWFjOKyTieHgu6_GfiCtUwtlbXZgB2vBy83J3_JGIr2cyoUYKho-A5hT8s6Ms4H8bb_W3HXpMBFcSPhlVafwdtx_r2VV8__jDkuz9S_enrSghpyCQfoz1J3WAq0GY/s1600/20.png" imageanchor="1" style="text-align: center;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEivxEElFVTvBokqRaaaWFjOKyTieHgu6_GfiCtUwtlbXZgB2vBy83J3_JGIr2cyoUYKho-A5hT8s6Ms4H8bb_W3HXpMBFcSPhlVafwdtx_r2VV8__jDkuz9S_enrSghpyCQfoz1J3WAq0GY/s1600/20.png" style="background: none repeat scroll 0% 0% transparent; border: 0pt none ! important;" /></a>).<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiemg6YpjjNg95hfYfQykT2iyIo1pY5WTyShNDaI3Sbfe0wz7HFTKAFjiKgXdSe99pVwpJsNH-wtCoe3jJWzR1iP5eTo1GBZ-T-WCq33jThbmJhRlMd1b1FrLG1xs3oAtU5BSzfxIfB04EY/s1600/Photo+09-12-2013+16+47+44.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiemg6YpjjNg95hfYfQykT2iyIo1pY5WTyShNDaI3Sbfe0wz7HFTKAFjiKgXdSe99pVwpJsNH-wtCoe3jJWzR1iP5eTo1GBZ-T-WCq33jThbmJhRlMd1b1FrLG1xs3oAtU5BSzfxIfB04EY/s1600/Photo+09-12-2013+16+47+44.jpg" width="480" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
The replica one is super clumpy and orangey. After a few minutes it also turns into powder. If you touch it it actually crumbles off. On the other hand, the original one glides on better. Although I still don't like the colour. It's still quite yellow/orange. It doesn't coat all of her eyebrows. It took me a good few strokes for it to get covered enough. Yes, an eyebrow pencil or powder will do the trick, but I still prefer the Kiss Me Heavy Rotation eyebrow mascara. I'll tell you why in another post next time .</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
But of course that's just my opinion. Some people love the Dolly Wink eyebrow mascara. I personally don't. But I guess because the brand is very popular lot's of people think it's good. Moreover, if the brand isn't popular, no one will be making replicas of it. I once read a review of Dolly Wink's eyebrow pencil where the blogger mentioned that the quality of the pencil itself was very cheap. I do think Dolly Wink is a bit overpriced when bought from online sellers like Shoppingholics. They sell this at €16/ $21. But if you buy it in Japan, the eyebrow mascara is retailed at ¥1050, which is around €7/ $12~. I got mine on sale for €6. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
So. As for the original Dolly Wink Eyebrow Mascara...<br />

<a name='more'></a>Hi everyone! Happy new year! Today I'm gonna share what I bought during St. Stephen's day sale, which is the same as Boxing day in the UK and probably Black Friday sales in the US. Stephen's day is on the 26th of December but some stores don't open until the 27th. I know for a fact that sales here in Ireland are not as intense as Black Friday sales. By that I mean the prices aren't as low and people aren't as crazy trying to kill each other. But there are shops that people cue up for at 6am. Actually I only know one shop, which is Next.<br />
<br />
But yeah. My mom had work that day so I didn't think I'd be going shopping. But that morning I went to the toilet and found an envelop stuck to the door. Written on it was: "<i>Merry Christmas Keziah and Kristel </i>(my sister). <i>Enjoy your shopping today. Don't spend anything for us, the money is for you two -Love, Mama". </i>Inside was 100euro for each of us. Needless to say I was ecstatic. Anyways, here's whats I gotsss:<br />
<br />
I got most of my stuff from New Look. I got this pretty blouse for 10euro.<br />

These shoes are like the ones I bought last year from New Look as well, minus the heels which is really good. This means I can use them everyday without killing my feet! Guess how much these were. That's right, 10euro lol. </div>

The following day we went to Dundrum Shopping Centre, which is probably to the most posh mall in Ireland. In BT2 I got this Marc Jacobs ipad case on sale for 30euro. Pretty expensive I must say but my mom insisted I should get it.

This last one I stumbled across while looking for eyeshadow palettes. Apparently Superdry has launched a makeup/ beauty line. I must say, their products are so pretty. I decided to get the Beauty Collective one which has a two-coloured eyeshadow palette, eyeliner, lip gloss, nail polish, and nail buffer, all inside this really bulky (in a good way) neon pink makeup bag. This one was 30euro. I'll do a review of the products at a separate post at another time.</div>

The controversial EGG magazine the gaijin gal community was talking about. Controversial because it's a step away from the usual EGG magazine vibe. Why did I buy it? Because I've never had an EGG magazine... and I like onee style. I've always thought the style in EGG is a bit eccentric. <a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhDptJwWzvM0fBXBFZMCkwnu_wjR3CZYuLHcsmSZoHuMbgkXZNgqa6QH7PO0ZEoi-4iTurilhMIoRx5QZsyPe2yKuO61LvZnLcd9idKZOaKLrfWN7Nszo_REQnPnCbZ-6-ZaceGjfz2kAHK/s1600/tumblr_inline_mm2wbdwIcT1qz4rgp.gif" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; display: inline !important; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em; text-align: center;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhDptJwWzvM0fBXBFZMCkwnu_wjR3CZYuLHcsmSZoHuMbgkXZNgqa6QH7PO0ZEoi-4iTurilhMIoRx5QZsyPe2yKuO61LvZnLcd9idKZOaKLrfWN7Nszo_REQnPnCbZ-6-ZaceGjfz2kAHK/s1600/tumblr_inline_mm2wbdwIcT1qz4rgp.gif" style="background: none repeat scroll 0% 0% transparent; border: 0pt none ! important;" /></a></div>

With that said, most of my magazines are JELLY and Happie Nuts. </div>

But my very first magazine was 小悪魔Ageha April 2013. It was a present from my friend Ryoko when she visited Ireland. It was around the time I was first starting to look gal so Ageha was a perfect reference guide. From then on I got more. </div>

As you can see, JELLY is the thickest. Both JELLY and Ageha are thickly bound. Price-wise JELLY retails for <span style="background-color: white; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: x-small; line-height: 16px;">¥</span>500, 小悪魔Ageha <span style="background-color: white; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: x-small; line-height: 16px;">¥</span>580 (<span style="background-color: white; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: x-small; line-height: 16px;">¥</span>780 if there is a freebie), Happie Nuts <span style="background-color: white; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: x-small; line-height: 16px;">¥</span>690 but always has a freebie, and EGG for <span style="background-color: white; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: x-small; line-height: 16px;">¥</span>490. Speaking of freebies, I've had two freebies from Nuts and Ageha's April 2013 issue.</div>

Some magazines also do special issues called 'mooks'. They're basically a mix between magazine and book. These mooks usually focus on a certain area such as makeup. EGG does '<i>EGG's beauty</i>'. JELLY does '<i>盛れるJELLY</i>'. I have volume 4, which is all about affordable makeup!<br />

Hi there! Over the summer my friend Xiaokang went back to China for the holidays. If you read my <a href="http://moreruki.blogspot.com/2013/09/package-mini-haul-amazon-japan-co-my.html" target="_blank">post on how I bought stuff on Amazon Japan</a>, you'd know that friends are very handy for buying things abroad. So basically I gave a list of links I wanted her to buy for me from Taobao. Then when she came back to Ireland she gave me the stuff and I paid her for them. Taobao is basically a Chinese eBay or Amazon but super cheap and has lots of variety. I mainly bought lashes, but also got these two:<br />

Anyway, <b>this blog post is a little guide on things to keep in mind if you want to buy eyelashes on taobao. </b><br />
<br />

<span style="font-family: inherit;">假睫毛 : false eyelashes</span><br />
睫毛 : eyelashes<br />
上睫毛 : upper lashes<br />
下睫毛 : lower lashes<br />
套装 : set ( for example, '上睫毛套装' is '<i>set of upper eyelashes</i>')<br />
套装 组合 : mixed set (a box of eyelashes will have different styles inside)<br />
对: pair<br />
盒: box<br />
一: 1 , 五: 5, 十: 10. (note: almost all of the time they would use the number itself instead of the Chinese character)<br />
<div>
<br /></div>

If the price for the lashes seem so cheap, it's probably because you're buying <span style="font-family: inherit;"><b>just one pair</b></span><b>. </b>They do this most often in shops that sell Diamond Lash and Decorative lashes. Look out for these possible phrases:<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br />
<div style="text-align: left;">
<b> </b>一对/ 1对: 1 pair </div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
5双/ 对 : 5 pairs</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
10对 : 10 pairs </div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
一盒/ 1盒 : 1 box </div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
一盒10/ 10对盒 : 1 box for 10 pairs</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
Just keep in mind the characters for "<i>pair"</i>,<i> "box"</i> and the numbers because any of these phrases can be put in different ways. </div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">If you do decide to buy Japanese brand lashes, do bear in mind that some listings show photos of the original one but will send you a dupe of it. They would usually put a photo of what you're gonna get at the very very end of the page. Otherwise, dupes are pretty easy to spot. </span></div>

Chinese yuan. Don't get them mixed up. It can also be written as 元. 100 yuan is around 12 euro. 100 yen is around 0.75 cents.<br />

Unlike e-Bay or Amazon where items that are out of stock won't show up when you search for them, items in taobao will still be there regardless of whether it's in stock or not. If it's out of stock, "<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">此宝贝已下架" </span><span style="font-family: inherit;">is written</span><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">.</span><br />

Just like with eBay and Amazon, make sure that the shop you're buying from has a good reputation. Don't buy from sellers with ratings less than 99%. Below is an image of the seller's profile. You'll see this on the page of the item you want to buy. I've circled the part that shows the rating.<br />

I told myself I'll only buy stuff I can't get anywhere else, like eBay. But as you can see, I got the Dolly Wink eyebrow mascara <b>cause it was on saaaaale</b> (6euro/ $9.6~) <span style="font-size: large;">plus </span>I'll be doing a comparison review with the dupe version I mentioned in my <a href="http://moreruki.blogspot.ie/2013/06/omiyage-from-my-cousin.html" target="_blank">お土産post</a>.<br />
Everything costed 27.15euro to be exact, including domestic shipping. Had Ryo-chan let me pay for shipping to Ireland, it would've totalled almost 40euro.

I also got a face massager that's <i>supposed to</i> make your cheeks and chin smaller to get that all desired V-shape. It's from Koakuma Ageha. They have a line of products for, basically, looking thinner! This one is called 'Hoho ago shape roller'.</div>

Honestly I don't believe in it. I don't and will never have a V-shaped face, unless I get surgery, because my bone structure is just not shaped like that. On certain angles, my jaw looks like <a href="http://images1.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20090813232521/asian/images/b/b4/Mana_Honda.jpg" target="_blank">Mana Honda</a>'s. No amount of massaging can possibly shape it into V, unless this massager somehow has a secret chip-away-parts of the bone-magically property <a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhMZwzLAuIVq3aGavCdwtmhtohTGbxaAiUj3ATjxWQZlj6kjQA6IEz9zYKJhbRopQWAzDHGoFjG5HYgq4DLPEts9o0u6zvBgHqgUohviAQq0pzU5u3m6s6cDeuJ8h4dxK5LmH4JpEiqnUJv/s1600/moodbubble19.gif" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; display: inline !important; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em; text-align: center;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhMZwzLAuIVq3aGavCdwtmhtohTGbxaAiUj3ATjxWQZlj6kjQA6IEz9zYKJhbRopQWAzDHGoFjG5HYgq4DLPEts9o0u6zvBgHqgUohviAQq0pzU5u3m6s6cDeuJ8h4dxK5LmH4JpEiqnUJv/s1600/moodbubble19.gif" style="background: none repeat scroll 0% 0% transparent; border: 0pt none ! important;" /></a>.

So yeah, this was all back in May. And they only recently arrived because she just started a new job and was busy. But it's cool~</div>

Amazon Japan has an English option and you can pay with any VISA card. They have veeeerry good exchange rates. Much much better than paypal. Let me tell you, their items are also <i>pretty cheap</i> compared to buying from online shops and places like eBay. They also have loaaaads of stuff can you can only get in Japan, like back issues of gyaru magazines. I know places like cdjapan and yesasia don't/rarely have back issues. The problem with buying off of Amazon jp is that not every item can be shipped internationally. Makeups are definitely a no-no. Also, 99% of the time private sellers don't ship internationally. My bestfriend Yuho once bought me two back issues of Koakuma Ageha. He ordered them when he was in Canada and got it delivered to me. <b>Shipping alone cost $50!!! </b>I felt really bad about it. But I wanted them soooo much >< and I am forever grateful and will treasure 'em!<br />
<br />
So what's a good alternative? Here's what I did.<br />
<br />
I have a few Japanese friends whom I met here in Ireland and are now back in Japan. Ryoko was one of the girls I got closest to, and stayed close with long after they've gone back home. So I asked her if I could get the stuff delivered to her place after having ordered them online myself, and then all she has to do is mail 'em to me. I pay for the shipping of course. Ryoko, being nice, sweet and the epitome of 大和撫子 was all "oh no it's ok, I'll pay for the shipping, it's only <span style="background-color: white; color: #444444; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: x-small; line-height: 16px;">¥</span>1590" (12~euro).<br />
<br />
But yeah. That's all.<br />

This is basically a high-end brand vs Korean brand comparison. Now unto it!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
<b><u>Price</u>: </b>the biggest consideration when choosing between these two is the price. MAC is a high-end brand. This container has 3grams worth of product and costs 17euro. On the other hand, the Tony Moly one has 4grams worth of product for 5 euro including shipping AND it comes with its own built-in brush unlike MAC where you need to get a separate one. <img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgFcx-Mc1QQTEPfrbIedRUlk-RTUns_2aszaj4U0tzCuuIf4E4qQ8bFzb6Q6YmzN2YqCNVjjOwAkC9cwJv_qMRD3VV4NT6S0xbfm0_nkQOq4AOaZSObs6aEwv3dqyw6hlS7Sd6A3eYXNnBA/s1600/ballonheart_1_bystudioto.gif" style="background: none repeat scroll 0% 0% transparent; border: 0pt none ! important;" /><b>Tony Moly</b></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
<b><u>Where to buy</u>: </b>MAC has its own store, well here in Dublin it has. You can also get them in Brown Thomas. Tony Moly is a Korean brand, so you have to buy it online. I got mine on eBay and there are a couple of very reliable sellers out there. <img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgzyg6KYhuY20hf78BCxbZwqtT5G5d0x3AhoVWk7LaGcvF2iBOpxNsVMJVy9-i5nmwpQXqxspFSnev4IN6AZ2FvKqjLKSc7CVgfw0vXlSBZs878q8tQCwEePGfd9piZV7V5ovDyC8C3ELHB/s1600/ballonheart_1_bystudioto.gif" style="background: none repeat scroll 0% 0% transparent; border: 0pt none ! important;" /><b>Draw- </b>it depends on whether you prefer buying stuff online or in shops!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
<u style="font-weight: bold;">Colour:</u> As you can see, or maybe not (just click the photo to zoom in), they're both a nice black colour. The only difference is that the Tony Moly one is a bit more glossy/ shiny, while MAC is more matte. <img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgzyg6KYhuY20hf78BCxbZwqtT5G5d0x3AhoVWk7LaGcvF2iBOpxNsVMJVy9-i5nmwpQXqxspFSnev4IN6AZ2FvKqjLKSc7CVgfw0vXlSBZs878q8tQCwEePGfd9piZV7V5ovDyC8C3ELHB/s1600/ballonheart_1_bystudioto.gif" style="background: none repeat scroll 0% 0% transparent; border: 0pt none ! important;" /><b>Draw</b>- it depends if you want a matte or glossy effect. </div>
