Latest Buys

I went to the shops yesterday and bought a few bits and bobs! I love shopping!


L-R: Rimmel Max Volume Mascara; Hello Kitty Lip Gloss Raspberry by H&M; COLLECTION 2000 16hr Lasting Perfection Ultimate Wear Concealer; Natural Strawberry Face Mask by H&M.


Rimmel Max Volume Mascara
The mascara is long-lasting, but a few coats is needed. It's quite thick and clumps a little.
Hearts: 4/5


Hello Kitty Lip Gloss Raspberry by H&M
This is a pretty pink colour which is very shiny and glittery. However, it didn't really taste or smell like raspberry very much.
Hearts: 4/5


COLLECTION 2000 16hr Lasting Perfection Ultimate Wear Concealer
I love this liquid concealer! It lasts for ages and is very easy to apply.
Hearts: 5/5


Natural Strawberry Face Mask by H&M
This face mask is gooorgeous. It smells so sweet and it has exfoliating beads too. My skin felt so soft after and it noticeably stripped away lots of oil off my face!
Hearts: 5/5


Prom Stuff
Here's some of the things I got for the big night tomorrow!

  Sweet bow-pearl earrings I got from a stall seller in town! She was so cute, and she sold so many other pretty pieces of jewellery! The sparkly grips and spirals are from Claire's.

First Post - YesStyle.com Review

I've been meaning to start this blog for awhile and now here it is!

So for my first post I'll be reviewing YesStyle.com, an online retailer of Asian Fashion. I decided to buy a pink dress, for Leavers Assembly, and some false eyelashes... For fun.

Website
Very easy to use, well organised and loading is okay. The only thing is that there are so many products on the site it takes ages to look through them all! There is also a price discrimination option if you are on a budget, or you can choose particular colours or brands.
Hearts: 4/5

Shipping & Packaging
Processing took about 2 days and they took about 5 days to ship. Note that I only purchased items which were ready to ship. Some items they have to order to their warehouse before sending it off and may take a lot longer. The shipping was pretty expensive, but if you spend a certain amount you can get free shipping. The packaging was a YesStyle box covered in plastic and very sturdy!
Hearts: 3.5/5

Lace-Panel Polka Dot Sleeveless Dress
This dress is by a HK brand called 59 Seconds. It is made out of pink lace and pink polka dot fabric, with an elasticated waistband. It was on sale for 20% off! Bargain! Click here to view it! 

I quite like this dress! It's kind of short, but not too much that it threatens to show your undies. Here I wear it with a long Accessorize pearl necklace, a striped bow from New Look and a gold belt.
Hearts: 4/5

Arezia Eye Lashes
These were about £6 and 2 identical pairs of lashes were included. I wanted some false eye lashes that I could wear on a regular day so I bought these, but I couldn't see in the stock pic that these were glittery. :(






 
Here is a picture of my eye with no false eyelashes on:

The body of the false lashes are quite stiff and hard to put on. The adhesive didn't work at all, so I had to use Eyelure glue instead. And here is a picture with the Arezia Eye Lashes on:

Hearts: 3.5/5 (mostly because the stock pictures didn't show that these were glittery, but maybe this was my fault)

Thanks for looking!
