Pinky Paradise Review on Geo Bella Lenses

Hello! So I just bought some new contacts from Pinky Paradise! They are Geo Medical Bella series. They are brown and are 14.2 diameter. 

Color match: Perfect golden brown they match exactly how they are advertised on their website. Sometimes I think the pictures shown can be photoshopped a lot and don't necessarily look the same, but these look great!

Comfort: 5/5 I can have them in for hours and not notice them

Enlarging effect: 3/5 but that is what I wanted! I just wanted a cute slightly larger look. 

Packaging: 5/5 looked safe and nothing was damaged and my lashes I ordered where in perfect condition. 

Shipping/ordering: 4/5

I ordered these in September and when I payed via PayPal it glitched and my transaction never went through but it showed that I purchased my items. I didn't know that the transaction didn't go through. They do have alittle box that said awaiting payment. But I had to click on my purchase history and go through to see that. Other websites if I had items in my card would send an email that said "still thinking?". The difference with this is that I actually went through the purchasing process and signed into my paypal and for some reason it never went through right but showed that my order was made. I waited a few weeks and after getting nothing in the mail I went and logged in and went to my shipping info to see if I had a tracking number and that when I ffound out it was awaiting payment still. By the time I fixed it a put my payment in one of my items was sold out, however they emailed me promptly apologized and we switched out the items and my order was on it's way. I got my contacts around the 5 th of November. 

Overall opinion: I would order from Pinky paradise again. Next time I'll make sure to open up my order information and make sure nothing is pending. They show your status but give you more information if you click on your specific order and expand it. They have great prices for the same contacts and have a great selection of eyelashes that I love.

Thank you for reading I hope it helps!

Princess Mimi Almond Brown Contact Review

I purchased these contacts from EyeCandys.com. So here is my first Review: I got them in a fair amount of time for standard shipping. They came from Hong Kong and I think it took about 2 weeks give or take a few days to come to Chicago. I made a video that is now up on YouTube so you can see them on.

I think they look very big and unatural in this picture but I think they look better in the YouTube Video.
Lenses: 14.5 mm
They can look alien like in person which is my only downfall with these contacts. They are very comfortable lenses and I can wear them for a decent amount of time before my eyes start to get dry. I have more information in my YouTube video and I show my natural eye compared to the circle lense.
Talk to you again soon!

Great stores to shop at for gyaru items

It has been a very long time! Too long 😔 but I am happy I found some time to post a little bit! I have been trying to actively post pictures on my new Instagram account of the new cute things I find to please follow me at gyarufashionusa! I just wanted to do a little post about a few good stores to shop and to keep in mind when looking for some gyaru type items. Now I know there are all sorts of branches of gyaru (ex: hime). So the stores I am going to list I believe can fit a lot of different styles.  So each of these stores will over something the next store doesn't.  I like to shop for some staple items at Discovery clothing. Keep in mind that their clothing is very inexpensive, cheap and if you are not careful can break easily. So I really like to buy hair accessories here, and smaller simple tops and dresses. I have found some nice jeans and overalls here before. A posative about discovery is that they are constantly changing their store, each week to 2 weeks there are new arrivals. I beleive this is part of the reason you cannot view their items online, because their merchandise is constantly changing. That is why I try to take pictures of the cute items I find and post them.Another store I find myself going to a lot is Forever 21. I have seen it mentioned in Popteen before. They can have items on the cheaper side that can break but you should always be mindful in what you buy to make sure there are no ripped seams and broken zippers. Before you purchase items. Another store I love to shop at is PAC SUN. They have some really nice items and they always seem to have cute bags and accessories too. Charlotte Russe is another favorite of mine because they have very feminine clothing and shoes. Lots of cute heels and boots. My final store I am going to mention is Hot Topic, they have a wide variety of some kawaii items and even have anime items as well. They offer steam pink and classy pin up doll wear. I think over the years their woman's clothes variety has expanded and even though they are known for carrying other styles of clothing you can find pieces here that for the gyaru style. Their are many other stores you can pull pieces from these are just a few I frequent at. Any of the stores I have mentioned in my outfit lookalike posts are fair game to try as well! I just recently ordered some contacts and clothes online so I will have my review up on that in the next few days!
Have a great night and I will post again soon!

New Clothes and a Popteen Magazine

Hello! It has been awhile since I posted anything on my page, I am sorry ): I struggle with time management sometimes, and couldn't find any time to post! However I was lucky enough to get my hands on a brand new Popteen Magazine. It is the February issue. So far I have only glanced at it, but I will post some pages out of it soon with some outfits. On top of getting my magazine from Kinokuniya, I also did a little shopping. One store I think always has had some Gyaru Style is a store called Discovery Clothing. I really like to shop here and get some basic things. You do have to be careful about quality with some of the products. I think over the years I have gotten better products from them and it is very affordable. They have very cheap prices which is nice, but no dressing room so you have to return anything that doesn't fit right.




Here are a few things I have purchased:

 I cant wait for warmer weather so I can wear my short overall. They have all this spring apparel at Discovery even though there is still snow on the ground. It just makes me want spring to come already.
























Here is a few shots of the store:

 You can't view any of their stuff online so if I see anything  cute I will take snap shots. I will most likely post them on some other form of social media and link them here.
Thanks again for reading and feel free to leave a comment!

Cute False Lashes that look close to Dolly Wink lashes

A big popular eyelash brand by  Tsubasa Masuwaka is Dolly Wink. They are great eyelashes that have 17 different styles. They range from a very natural look to an extremely exaggerated lash. I love her lashes but to buy them at my local store in the states that sells them is a little too expensive. I will have to buy a pair soon to try them out though. Until then I just use some standard brands from my local stores to substitute. I don't wear lashes on a daily basis but I do wear them occasionally.  Here are a few bands I have tried and found to look very close to some of the Dolly Wink lashes.  I will leave links below for each number I can find. I would check any store around you that sells false lashes I am able to purchase all of them at my local Ulta.

New Trending Handbags from Popteen and Bags like them in the US

Hello! So I just got the December issues of Popteen and Ageha! ^_^ So I have had a lot of fun looking at them and finding similar items from stores around me. It takes some time for me to put together outfits because I really do try to find items as close as possible. For today I have a post about Handbags. In Popteen a big trend is clutches, cross shoulder purses and my personal favorite backpacks. I love backpacks because they hold a lot and are very easy to carry. I have found some really cute bags and back packs that look pretty close to the ones shown in Popteen. The only problem I found was right now in the States Tribal Aztec print is very popular and is a big trend, however in japan it's not. So some of the bag prints are off. ): Sorry. So things that are trending here in the State will big on some of the bags like the Aztec print and sequence. I also had a hard time finding a bunny back pack so I picked the next best thing, Hello Kitty. You can find Hello Kitty everywhere! I hope you enjoy the Bags, I will have Links to the items at the bottom of the picture as usual. Hand bags are yellow numbers and Backpacks are redish orange. I do have multiple of certain numbers because I found 2 bags that looked good.

Popteen Gyaru Outfit Look-A-Like 4

I just got the December issue of Popteen and Ageha! I have been doing some looking so I can recreate some of the outfits in them. Until I get finished with that I have another outfit out of the November Issue of Popteen. I tried really hard to find a cat beanie that you could buy at an actual store instead of an online only shop, but it get's pretty hard when it comes to certain accessories. Another thing that is difficult is when they wear something that is brand specific (like her shirt that says Boxy & Slim). I tried to find a shirt that was close in make and color it just has different writing on it. I also tried to find a cardigan in the same Color but the closest to purple I could get was pink. I hope you all like it!! ^_^
Outfit 4:













Top: Is from Abercrombie & Fitch
Cardigan: Is from Forever 21 
Skirt: Is from Forever 21 
Hat: Is from Pac Sun 
Shoes: Are from DSW

Popteen Winter Style Outfit Look-A-Like 3

Popteen has a Youtube channel called PopteenTV. When I can't find the time to get my hands on a magazine I like to check and see what kind of things they post on their Youtube Channel. They show a lot of behind the scenes of their photo shoots which are fun to watch and I get to see what outfits they are wearing. Here is the video of their Winter Style Photoshoot.

This is Maeda Nozomi's outfit from the video I posted. I tried to find items very close, the colors vary a little but it's as close as I could get with online pictures.

Shirt:From Forever 21

Blazer:From Forever 21

Bottoms:From Forever 21

Socks:From Urban Outfitters (3 pack- use the white for outfit)

Shoes:From Charlotte Russe

See you soon

Popteen Outfit Look-A-Like 1 and 2

I constantly look up what places to shop in the USA that have clothing that is close to what Gyaru's would wear in japan. Now we don't have a brand that is close enough to Liz Lisa, they are on their own level :(. They are one of my favorites. So  I have been putting together some outfit Look-A-Likes from one of my Popteen Magazines. I will try to post as many of these  Look-A-Likes from brands you can buy in the States. I will also provide links to each piece of the outfit. These outfits are taken out of my Popteen November issue. Ill will have to get a more current issue soon!
Look-A- Like Outfit 1:

Direct Links to each Item
Top: Sweater is from Target
Bottoms: Skirt is from Forever 21
Socks: Socks are from Target
Shoes:Boots are From Charlotte Russe
Hat:Hat is from Sears
I tried to find a sweater close to her grid sweater but there was nothing like it. The closest sweater was at Forever 21 and it was a crop top. So I thought that this was a bit closer.
Look-A-Like Outfit 2:

Direct Links to each Item

Tops:Sweater is from Macy's

Bottoms: Skirt is from Express

Shoes:Shoes are from Ffamous Footware

Hat:Hat is from Pac Sun

I tried to find a good hat to match the one in the picture but they weren't the right color so when I saw this cute cat ear hat I fell in love. I think this outfit would look good with light pink or white mid half socks or knee highs that are bunched and push down a little.

*All background images were found on Bing when I looked up flower backgrounds

Where to get Gyaru Magazines in The United States

Three magazines I love to get are Popteen, Egg and Ageha. They inspire alot of the looks and outfits I try to recreate with items I can get at American Stores. It's getting my hands on them that can be hard. I know you can find them online. I'm a little new when it comes to ordering things online and I get nervous about it but comfort comes with time I guess. Luckily very close to where I live there is this amazing market that has anything and everything Japanese. It's called Mitsuwa Marketplace. I love the experience of going there, you literally feel like you are in a super market in Japan. So for me, I like this better and the magazines are cheaper. Inside their store they have this bookstore called Books Kinokuniya and from this nice bookstore is where I get my Popteen, Egg and Ageha magazines. I know this option isn't for everyone who wants to get a Gyaru Magazine. They have Mitsuwa Markets and Kinokuniya bookstores in various cities and states so I definitely encourage you to look them up. If you don't have one of them by your location you can always buy them on Amazon. I think getting the year subscription is the cheapest price per issue but its a large lump sum at once for Popteen. This are a few of the issues I have:

Where do you get your magazines if you buy them? Anyone have good suggestions?
