Random Lol

So I just bought two creams for my face. One is to get rid of under eye puffiness and the oher is a fading cream. The Eye Fade cream is by Dagget & Ramsdell and I'm assuming the Facial Fade Skin Lightening Cream is by the same company even though the jar doesn't have a company label on it...very strange.

I bought these in the CVS store for $6. I have seen a difference in my skin with the Facial Fade and I've only used it about 5-6 times once a day right before I go to bed. I don't have really really dark acne marks all over my face, but I do have three groups of medium-dark acne scars right under my cheeks and on my chin. I can already see them lightening up and starting to fade but I also am noticing 1-2 pimples popping up near the areas that I apply the cream so I need to start getting into a routine of cleaning my face and putting on acne preventive meds again...or my monster's about to show up...*shrug* either way it's not breaking me out bad lol. So would I recommend this product? Uh...der. It starts working quickly and effectively! The only downside I have is that they don't have directions for it on the jar, only the box.

Now, onto the Eye Fade Cream...I can't say I'm seeing any results from this product just yet.If I remember correctly, on the box it said you should begin seeing results in 3 months and if not then discontinue using the product. So...if I read that right, then this products takes a while to work. That being said, I can't really give a review of it until I use it for an extended period of time. Hopefully I remember to review it later.

OTHER NEWS

* Me and Miyabi are hosting a Gal me2 (meet) at the convention Anime USA in Washington, D.C if any of you readers/followers are in the area. We plan on just going to lunch just in case some of you guys aren't going to the convention.

*I have joined my university's belly dance troupe! WOOO! So now I'll be more busy with practice and trying to not let online assignments sneak in and drop my grades down ;_; Like they already are

I did my nails like three days ago but my thumb nails, left index finger, and left pinky finger nail popped off and the design sucked so I fixed them tonight and this is what they look like right now

Also, I've been really really lazy with dressing up because I'm finding myself not liking my clothes. My mind is it "cool weather mode" so it wants to put on tights/leggings and mini skirts and boots, but it's not that cold yet ;_; So I've just been doing my makeup with whatever I wear and my hair is disappointing me as well *sigh* my skills are dwindling...so sad...

I'm Feeling Adventurous...

So last night I decided to do something I haven't done before...

I bought stuff to do nails!! on eBay, of course lol gotta love eBay.

I bought:

-3000pcs. 1.5mm rhinestones in 12 colors

-15pcs. pink nail art brush set

-Metal glitter dusk in 24 colors

-Nail clippers

-20pcs. striping tape

-500 clear nail tips (not stiletto ones lol)

-Hexagon glitter in 18 colors

I also bought a wig that I thought was the perfect color for Rokku/kuronba/96gal,I want to call it ash blonde but it's listed as dark grey :/ It's a cosplay wig that i plan on cutting and styling. It says it's heat-resistant but we'll see...I need to buy more hair pieces to work with. Anyway, all of this cost me under $45 (most of that was for the wig which was $25) and I paid nothing for shipping ;3; I tell ya, eBay is the best store on the planet. I dunno what I'd do without it.

Also, I was accepted in the [Black Diamond] Gal Unit International (or BDiaIn't) :D that means I really need to step up my game and not just focus on makeup. I need to better my coords and hair and even nails! This is a such a great opportunity and I feel so grateful that I was chosen ^^

Thank you for reading, and I hope you enjoy the new layout. I'm trying to make a banner and make a better layout but I lack photoshop so my skills are severely limited T^T

Makin' A New Nail Set

I got bored a few days ago and decided to make these. I was trying for rokku style sort of but I couldn't do the exact design that I wanted to do due to my not having the correct nail polish brush tips and not having the deco pieces I wanted.

The nails themselves are actually nail tips that I didn't file down lol. The gems are actually leftover pieces from my last nail set (the pink and black gel nails I reviewed) and I made the dots by using a toothpick.

I actually went back over these nails with glitter polish, but I think it's too much going on when I did that...should have just put the glitter polish on the non-polka dotted nails :/

Now, I only secured these using nail glue and due to the length I find it hard to do anything from using my touch screen phone to opening the door to my car and driving. So as of right now as I type, two nails have fallen off and I'm trying to get the rest off now xD next time I'll better plan this out and make the nails a length that won't handicap me.

Review: Kiss Lightning Speed Gel Nail Kit

On Friday, out of nowhere, I decided to do my nails. Now usually I just put on some press-on nails but this time I felt like being creative. I went to my local Walgreens and while looking at the press-on nail lengths and things I saw this Lightning Speed nail kit by Kiss. It was 14.99 (excluding tax) and I decided to give it a try. Now, I'm a first time user of this kit and I think it's pretty darn easy to use.

You don't need glue to use this (and it doesn't come with glue either) but I would suggest you buy another small brush to go with the brush-on gel because the brush will get the acrylic powder on it and when you try to brush it on your nails it won't coat it evenly (also, I heavily suggest that you clean the brush BEFORE you start coating the next nail)

After you go over your nails about three times with the acrylic powder and brush-on gel you're supposed to spray all of your nails at once one time with the activator. I did it twice because I missed my thumb nail and it kind of had a tingling warm sensation on the skin lol.

Not bad for the first time. I will say if you've never used this before then don't expect to have a completely smooth nail surface when you're done. Luckily, they give you a buffer and a wide file so you can smooth out the surface and make it even and more smooth.

Usually you stop there but I wanted to deco my nails. I used Wet n Wild and Sinful Colors brand nail polish.

(The pink and sparkly clear colors are Wet n Wild brand and the Sinful Colors is the black color)

I also bought 3D nail art pieces from Walgreens (Kiss brand) and luckily I got them on sale for 2.98 instead of 4!

~Rating~ Difficulty: */***** Price: *****/***** (very good for a cheap kit!) Hope you enjoyed the review and my nails! :D
