Roxinatra Deco Review #2

Hi everyone,
Sorry about not posting any reviews for a while, I've been super busy lately with work and Uni
BUT I'm back and have a new review for you today!

Today I'll be reviewing a choker from Roxinatra Deco
This store specializes in handmade custom decoden/resin phone cases and other cute accessories.

The store is based in the U.S. and I live in Australia, so the parcel took about 2 weeks to arrive, just like last time.

The parcel arrived with the cute Hello Kitty tape on the sides again
(I love it so much hehe).

 
When opening the parcel, the choker was wrapped up nice and securely with pretty packaging and nothing was damaged.

The choker features Sylveon (from Pokemon) in the center of a black choker with dangly chains accentuating it. Attached to the choker is a long chain and clasp which allows for the wearer to adjust the tightness to personal preference.

Here are some pictures of myself wearing the choker.
Please forgive me for the photos not being too good and in my work uniform, I was in a bit of a rush and only had that opportunity to take them.
I'll be adding in better photos this week!

Lastly, the fit of the choker is nice, however it does sit a bit lower than what I'm used to. It sits more so at the base of my neck, rather than up around my throat. This is nice though because it does all a variation to the typical choker.
Overall, I give the customer service, postage time, packaging and product itself: 10/10.
It's always lovely working with Roxinatra Deco!

Also, don't forget, if you'd like some cute accessories like this choker or a custom decoden case from this store, you can use my code: "rinzichan10" for 10% off your purchases!~

Roxinatra Deco Review #1

Hiiiii everyone!
Super duper excited for this review!

I just received a package from Roxinatra Deco which is a store that specializes in handmade custom decoden/resin phone cases and other cute accessories.


They're based in the U.S, so it took around 2 weeks to arrive to Australia, which is usual shipping time.

I was so excited when the package came because I've been waiting so eagerly for it to arrive! The outside packaging is so cute, I love Hello Kitty hehe.

 When opening the packaging, the case was wrapped up nice and securely and nothing was damaged. The package also included business cards and care instructions for the decoden case, which was really nice.
Now onto the case itself.
I chose to have a pink and white theme with Sylveon from Pokemon as the center piece. Roxinatra Deco suggested that a Fairy Kei theme would work nicely with Sylveon. And they were right! The case is soooo cute and everything fits wonderfully together.
The case is also really well made and all the pieces are secure. The case even features some little sparkly rhinestones around the edges and on the whip as well!
Overall, I give the customer service, postage time, packaging and product itself: 10/10. I really couldn't be happier and I can't wait to show my new case off in public!

Also, don't forget, if you'd like a custom phone case or any of the cute accessories from this store, you can use my code: "rinzichan10" for 10% off your purchases!~

Lens Village review #1

Hi cuties,
Here is my product review for Lens Village

Today I'm going to be reviewing 2 contact lenses from Lens Village.
The contact lenses I chose to review are:

"EOS WM-101 Bubble Blue 14.8mm" which can be found here: Bubble Blue Lens 
and
"EOS Dark Ice Violet 2 Tones" which can be found here: Dark Ice Violet

From requesting the lenses that I wanted to review to receiving the package in the mail...It only took about 1-2 weeks which is above average postage time from overseas to Australia.


When I received the package, there was no damage to the outside or inside and everything was wrapped neatly and securely.



The lenses were kept in their typical lens vials and to my surprise they also included THE CUTEST lens cases. Omg the little piggies and elephants are TOO cute. ((I was almost more excited about them over the lenses eep)).


Now onto the contact lenses themselves
Both lenses are true to description, vibrant, are comfortable and fit well.

Here are some pics of me wearing the blue lenses:




Here are some pics of me wearing the violet lenses:




I loved wearing both, they really draw a lot of attention to your eyes and make them "pop". I'd have to say my favourite were the violet lenses, they make me feel like a lil fairy hehe. The only downside are I wish the lenses would go closer to the pupil, but maybe I'm just purchasing the wrong type of lenses...

Overall, I highly recommend Lens Village to anyone that is after a wide range of interesting and colourful lenses at affordable prices.
I will definitely be purchasing from Lens Village in the future !!

Brave Store Review #1


Hi everyone, time for my second product review!

Today I'm going to be reviewing an item from Brave Store on Storenvy
The item I chose was the "Kitty Ears Headband" which can be found here

The headband comes in a choice of gold or silver with either pearls or rhinestones. For this review I chose the headband in silver with rhinestones.

From placing my order to receiving it in the mail, it took about 4-5 weeks to arrive. Considering that the store is based in the same country that I live (Australia), I was expecting a much faster shipping time of 1-2 weeks.


When I received the package in the mail, the outside and inside was undamaged and in good condition. (The tear in the top right corner was from me hehe). The product was packaged in plastic which was simple and effective.



Now on to the product itself.
The headband is a good size, all the rhinestones were attached and in place and it fit snugly on my head. However, after a while the headband does create some pressure and gets a bit uncomfortable due to the metal and firmness.


Wearing the headband, I felt so kawaii and I'm sure I will add this into a lot of my outfits!
Overall, I'm really pleased with this product, the customer service and communication in the lead up to the product being sent out.



In the past, I have bought from Brave Store and I definitely will continue to do so.
If you would like to purchase the Kitty Ears Headband or other kawaii items from Brave Store, I definitely recommend doing so.

1st Instagram Giveaway

For those that are following me on Instagram, you'll know that I'm currently holding a giveaway.

I wanted to have a giveaway in celebration of reaching 3k followers and to also thank everyone for following me and for their continuous support and kind words on my photos.

I wanted my giveaway to have a general "kawaii", "anime" and "cosplaying" theme throughout all the items which is the main focus of my Instagram account. I also know that the majority of my followers on Instagram are into anime, cosplaying and Japanese culture and food, so it seemed fitting.

The purpose of this blog post is to document my first giveaway so I can compare it to future giveaways. I also wanted to provide my followers with links and info to various sites in case they would like to purchase any of the giveaway items in the future.

So firstly, here's a picture of all the giveaway items together:
 

The items include:
  • Unisqo pink circle lenses
  • Unisqo black circle lenses
  • Strawberry flavoured Pocky
  • Hello Kitty chocolate Yo-Bo
  • Strawberry flavoured Yan-Yan
  • Hazelnut flavoured Yan-Yan
  • Blueberry flavoured Ramune
  • Hello Kitty strawberry Ramune
  • Pokemon chopsticks with case
  • White and pink kitty cosplay paws
  • Pikachu - Pokemon pillow


The following includes links and info to each of the giveaway items:

Unisqo pink circle lenses: $22.90 and can be purchased here
Unisqo black circle lenses: $17.90 and can be purchased here
White and pink kitty paws: $9.49 and can be purchased here


For the Japanese candy, drinks and chopsticks, I purchased them all from Asian Food Grocer

They have an amazing selection of Japanese/Asian candy, food, drinks and household items at affordable costs...However when creating my giveaway , I hadn't realized the shipping costs would be so expensive...Shipping ended up being around $60, not including the food and drinks.

For those of you wanting Japanese food and candy, I recommend looking elsewhere, unless you can afford to pay the high shipping costs.

The Pikachu - Pokemon pillow was given to me as a gift from a friend a few years ago...I'm not too sure where they purchased it from. However, upon doing a quick Google search, I found one for sale here


Lastly, here's a quick video for a better look at all the giveaway items:


I just wanted to thank everyone that has taken the time to read this and to those that have participated in my giveaway. I'm sorry that there is only one winner, I wish I could give this prize to everyone. I will be having more giveaways with great prizes in the future, possibly once I reach 5 or 6k followers on Instagram...So stay tuned for that!
