Lens Review _ i Fairy Nova Green

Hi ,today I'll be reviewing iFairy 's Nova Green, 
followed by and intro to circle lenses for those who doesnt know about them ^^ 
For those who are using the, 
these may be fun trivia ^^
I'll be reviewing more of my current lenses in the next few days as an intro to my review of lenses sent by Uniqso, which is supposed to arrive in the next week or so


Do like my facebook page of you'd like to receive updates from me ;3
Arigato~~
Facebook - Teru-Terumii- <3 <3


if this doesnt work , there's a link on top left corner of this page ;3

So , back to Nova Green ^^



Thats how it looks like when taken under Natural Light , without flash :3

and this is how it looks like under bright light , without flash :3

[My future review will have pictures with flash , without flash and under natural light ^^ ]

I apologize that this post wont have it because my Nova Green has expired last week and I wouldnt want to wear it again deshou :3



The pattern , as promised
although colour does differ slightly :3 



Review :

Comfort 
Like my other ifairy lenses, they're quite comfortable despite their large size :D

Enlargement 
Love it ! Boasting a 16,2 mm diameter  isnt for nothing :3 
However , abased on personal knowledge and experience ,  do note that you shouldnt wear these kind of lenses Every single day for extended period of time ^^ Let your eyes breathe a little :3

Colour 
The colour isnt as striking as I would have expected from the advertorial picture , and the pattern does have clear gaps in between where your true eye colour will show .
I find it natural while not being totally subtle , since the green colour is indeed visible :3 although if you really want a striking green , maybe iFairy's Jewel green will be more obvious :3




Now, the last part (more serious part)



Circle Lenses Trivia
What are circle lenses ?
here's the wiki definition :
also known as a big eye contact lens and circle lens, is a cosmetic contact lens that makes the eye's iris appear larger; this product originated from South Korea.
So far , most of my lenses (if not all) are South Korean made :3
They often comes in many many design , from pretty to unnaturally scary interesting  ^^
consider these :
(these are purely my opinions :3, I do have a preference to non-extreme looking lenses unless for cosplay purposes ) 
I love casper violet         , but Yuri Grey's pattern (up close seems a bit off for me :(  ) 


Are they vision corrective ?
They're available in both corrective and non corrective forms :3 

Are they safe ?
This is important !! I do strongly suggest that you NEVER , EVER purchase from dubious seller no matter how cheap they charge you compared to official sellers. Nowadays , there are many many non authentic lenses from China which is making its way through the market parading in look-alike bottles of iFairy , Vassen , Geo etc . 

The latest step iFairy has taken to tackle this is by adding hologram stickers on their packaging :
End point is , DONT buy if its too cheap, dubious etc , no hologram sticker :( 
if your eyes experience ANY discomfort at all / REDNESS / ITCH upon wearing them ,  please please please  IMMEDIATELY take them off,rise them again (because it may be debri , when your first round lens washing isnt clean enough ), and try again . IF it persists , take them off and dont wear them at all. They may be fake lenses !!!
Be especially cautious because circle lenses are often ordered online :( 

Only order from trusted sources !

In fact , FDA SG caught a batch of fake lenses contaminated with the potentially dangerous bacteria Pseudomonas aeruginosa 
(these bacteria commonly causes Soft-lenses-associated keratitis . Wiki them to know what else this bacteria can cause :( I'm not trying to scare you. I;m studying microbiology at school  as of now :(( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pseudomonas_aeruginosa )

Now , lets proceed to the 'a bit' scary part ;3 
Can I wear them every day ?
I advise you not to.

I personally only wear lenses for special occasion, events(cosplay etc) , about once or twice a week :3 . I've known people who wore them everyday without fail, but then again , do note that these people may not wear it the whole day (only a few hours everyday) . Otherwise, if you're wearing them everyday and 

The cornea (part of our eyes where the lenses rest on) relies on diffusion of Oxygen via air to 'breathe' . Wearing lenses for extended period of time may hamper oxygen transfer :( your eyes will feel strained and tired :( Even worse, yourn cornea may turn hypoxic , leading to decreased sight . 


Also , most circle lenses are for yearly use (meaning you can use them for up to one year after opening provided they're not damaged and you clean them regularly) . They're not as soft as daily lenses and prolonged use may lead to dry eyes --> leading to abrasion or minute scratching of the cornea .

Majolica Majorca Make Up Workshop

Hahaha 
 Im quite busy now , so I shall rush a post up here ^^

Basically~ 
2 weeks ago 
I registered on a free make up workshop on Majolica's facebook 
(FREE people ~!!! Listen FREE!! Go stalk their fb pg and sign up now !!) 
Lollz 

But of course, before getting to the point I shall bombard you guys with random pictures first :P

Otw to studying outside 


Dinner



Okay , Now to the event !!!
It was held at Shiseido studio (basically in the building behind H&M) :P 


So many working people >,< now i feel like the odd one out


Basically this workshop is to introduce Majolica's new Chapter 35 line :P
so its advert while ltting you try on 
Its a win win situation !!


Chapter 35 has a wild feel to it while being elegant and feminine at the same time ! :3


Majolica's chapter 35 poster for you to see 
(these are their new products ;3 readily available at watsons;3 )


From LEFT to RIGHT , they have :
"Hand Cream"

"Crack Nails"
Fuschia Red and Black ;3

" Creme De Cheek "
(no , they're NOT nail polishes ;3 ) 
Coral , Raspberry , Shell Pink , and Custard  Creme d(L to R) 

"Trick on Liner" 
Black and Dark red :3

Tried on both . Black one on my eyelids , Red one on my hand
I shall show you the picture on my palm one , because the black one kinda made my eyes look very very messy . 

Its a gel liner, and I dont really like it as it took quite long to dry and I tend to blink very often and thus it will smudge !!
But if you're pro at using gel eyeliner , its a good liner with vivid colours thougH !! :D 

But if you're an amateur I'll recommend Maybelline's sharp liner or Dolly Wink's :3 

"Majoromantica Fragrance"
OMG !!!! This one is so good !!! 
Basically it is a perfume with Three notes  !! Meaning , Three 'stages' when it will smell differently

1. TOP NOTE: Juicy & Fruity
Juneberry, Strawberry, Raspberry, Rum Bud, Apple, Fig, Mangosteen, Bergamot, Lemon and Mandarin
This happens within the first few minutes
2. MIDDLE NOTE: Floral ,Sweet
Rose, Sweet Pea, Jasmine, Muguet and Gardenia.

This is after about 30mins t 1 hr if Im not mistaken ^^"
3. END NOTE: Sweet , Mysterious
Vanilla, Maple, Brown Sugar, Sandalwood and Musk.;

This is after a few hours XD
I've just smelled the TOP note but IT .WAS. SO .GOOD !!
I'm definitely buying them after I've saved up TmT
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
gettign busy , juggling trying on the make up, camwhoring , 
and listening to the presentation  :3
Thats why i only have some pictures >,< ....
But here are some kind of tips you may get from the workshop :3 


One tips for drawing eyebrows :
slant it this way(below : pencil angled from edge of nose to outer edge of eye) 
to mark where your eyebrow tail should be

and like this ( below : from nose edge to inner edge of eye) 
to mark where your eyebrow 'head' should be :3

aaaaand ~~~~  

Ma Cherie was there too ;D



if you dont know Ma Cherie , 
its a new Japanese Hair Care Brand thats venturing into Singapore :3
I usually use Lucido-L but now I have more choices ;3 
Ma Cherie means "my sweetheart" in French.



and TAT they smell heavenly !!!!
Their formula contains champagne and honey amongst many other ingredients >,< They even have champagne glasses filled with a concotion  of champagne and honey to allow us to smell the fragrance ^^


Kooshi was there too :3 
In fact , they have a lucky draw where some of us 'won' presents . Here's mine :D!!


 a set of camisole-panty inside ^^"" not sure how to describe ...
so... 
here they are .. 


hahaha ^^ 
Now =_= before anyone said anytg about me posting 'my' panties on my blog
(since I've gotten some feedback O.o""" duh.. ~_~"""" )

1.They're brand new =_=
2. They'll be FOREVER brand new as long as they're with me .
They're too big for me , so I'm never going to wear them uinless I happened to gain 5-10 more kg I guess
3. We see these articles of clothings all the time (advert , TV , magazines etc =_= please ....) why would it be such a fuss...O.O??

anyway...
now not sure what to do with them OTL...

----------------------------------------------------
After the workshop , one product actually impressed me so much I went to Watsons to waste "wisely-spend-after-a-very-long-deliberation"  my hard -earned $$$ TmT 
....
its 
...































Majolica Majorca's make up base... T_T
I'm crying even now..

Majolica Majorca also gave everyone a package of goodie , isndie which is :


Majolica Majorca's lip gloss !!!
I have veeery dry chapped lips so I dont really like to wear lipsticks >,< 
I just wear lipbalm for the sake of maintaining a healthy looking lips :'(
