Review: fallineyes.blogspot.com (Part 1)

As promised here's my review for blogshop - fallineyes.blogspot.com - after receiving my orders after almost 2 months after the spree is closed. The seller told me that the lens will be arriving in Singapore approximately 2 weeks after orders are being sent over.

Click to enlarge and read for yourself the screenshots of mails sent.

(Note: There's another time and time on the emails I sent out in brackets as that is Singapore time. Time stamp in the mails I sent are Japan time so they are an hour faster.)



Mail sent and answered on 12 Dec 2009

As mentioned above, the seller said that the lens will arrive in Singapore in approximately 2 weeks time after the spree closes on the 30 Dec 2009.

So I quickly decided on what I want and submited my orders together with immediate payment and sent her (I suppose the seller is a SHE) an email on the 30 Dec 2009 at 11:48 with my confirmed orders of 3 pairs of Candy Magic lens and tranaction reference number.

She then replied saying that payment has been verified and orders had been noted

So happily I thought that everything will then go on smoothly and just wait for my lens to arrive by end of Jan max since it should roughly be in by mid Jan right?

So after waiting and waiting, it was passed mid Jan already and no updates were being given at all. Plus I was shifting house and stuff which I'm afraid that the lens might be sent to the wrong address, I decided to ask the seller.



Mail sent and answered on 11 Jan 2010.

In the email I received from the seller, it clearly states that the lens are ready to be shipped to me the following Tuesday which is the 19 Jan 2010.

I thought that nothing much would be a problem then as like a delay by one or two weeks is understandable. And sinced she gave me such a clear day that the lens would be ready to be sent out to me, I supposed that the lens would be sent out within that week isn't it?

I waited for my lens till the 24 Jan 2010 which I was quite worried as the lens had not reached me yet. So again, I sent an email to ask her.



Mail sent on 24 Jan 2010 and answered on 26 Jan 2010.

She said that she was busy with the packing which caused the late reply. Ok. No problem with that right?

She also said that the lens were being mailed out the previous day via normal postage which means it should reach me by 28 Jan 2010 max right? Like everyone that sends stuff frequently be it normal letters or what-so-ever should know that normal postage only takes one day to reach the recipient. Like... the following day?

I received my lens on either the 30 Jan 2010's evening or 31 Jan 2010's morning. I was out from 30th's afternoon so I can't check the mailbox in the evening. The lens were not sent to me yet when I left the house.



Here's how the lens were being packed.

Remember I stated that I ordered 3 pairs?

I saw the 3 lens cover which was given whenever you order 3 or more pairs of lens at one time. BUT! That seriously DO NOT look that 6 bottles of lens!!!



Everything that was in the mail.

Confirm don't have 3 pairs of lens!!!



And here's a note in in the envalope with the lens and covers.

"Hi Dear, I will be sending you another 2 pairs once it arrived on Feb 9th. Thanks U much =)"

Seriously, who will not be pissed off any single bit when they receive THIS!!!

Firstly, you didn't even let me know that my other 2 pairs of lens won't be sent together be it all the mails I sent to ask stuff.

SecondlyJo ordered her Japan lens from another blogshop like one or two weeks after I ordered my lens and hers had already arrived 2 weeks before mine!

Thirdly, Thanks what sia~

So fine. Like what else can I do but wait right? Since it was like only 9 days away from 9 Feb 2010, I thought it wouldn't be of any further problem.

Wait wait wait~ Waited till 18 Feb 2010.

9 days after the 9 Feb 2010.

Angry already. Email and ask again!



Mail sent and answered on 18 Feb 2010

Super WTH! She actually told me that the lens will be arriving the following Monday which is the 22 Feb 2010!

I know that you're handling a blogshop and there's lots of stuff you have to handle BUT! COME ON! Like I said, you're opening a BLOGSHOP!!! It's still a SHOP!!! If there's any delays and stuff, shouldn't you at least let your customers KNOW???!!!

I got soooooo pissed off and sick of waiting I actually wanted to just go meet up and get it from her.

In the end the meet up place was at some wulu MRT Station at 8pm!!! What the~~~

Forget it! Shall WAIT!



Mail sent and answered on 22 Feb 2010

She states that she will send my lens out the following morning.

So... Send on 23 Feb morning, CONFIRM will reach by 24 Feb evening one lor~ Don't try to fake me!

Well... As expected (which is NOT good), my lens did not arrive on the 24th! Neither did it reach me on the 25th!



The stamp on the envalope states 25 Feb 2010 okay~ This means that the lens were only sent out on the 25th!

What the~~~



This is the very first time I actually had to send more than 5 emails to get my stuff from spree okay~!? And remember, NONE OF THEM WERE UPDATES!

So... Now I'm done with the seller's part.

Now, the lens part.

Firstly, I have absolutely no idea whether are the lens authentic.



They are ALL being packaged into bottles with the exact same packaging

I'm not sure if it all like that cos all 3 pairs I ordered are the Candy Magic lens.

Tranlation of the japanese words on the bottle(s): Soft Contact Lens
Sorry I can't translate the words written in marker was they are all too messy. I can't even read it myself!



These are the lens I received yesterday evening



Bottles of all 3 different lens



The 3 different lens I bought

I compared them with the original images of the lens from fallineyes.blogspot.com



Brown lens



Blue lens



Violet lens


They look very similar alright~ So I guess it's fine for the pattern for each lens.

Colour-wise, I guess no one can actually give a very difinite answer to whether is it the same or not due to lighting differences. I personally feel that they are also, alright.

Anyway.. here's how the blue lens look like


In the case they gave



Being worn

So~ As stated on fallineyes.blogspot.com and confirmed by the seller cos I asked her when I was making my orders that those lens I ordered are all 15.5mm in diameter.

Freshkon's Alluring eyes are 14.1mm in diameter.

So~ If you were to put something like is of so-called that big of a difference, you should be able to see the differences very easily right?

So let's put them to the test!

To be fair, I did not have any makeup on and I did not photoshop my eyes at all! Only photoshopped my under eyes as there's still some remains from my stupid Fasio pencil eyeliner.



The Freshkon Alluring Lens in Brown I wore for the past month



Supposing Candy Magic Lens in Summer Blue I just started wearing today

Seriously... I myself DO NOT see much of a difference and in fact feel that it may even be slightly smaller.

If I were to take it that the Japan Lens are 14.5mm in diameter as stated on their official website http://candymagic.jp , I would believe cos it's really really a very small difference only.



So what do you think?

15.5mm as stated on fallineyes.bs.com?

or 14.5 mm as stated on Candy Magic's official website?

I'll go for Candy Magic alright~

Okay. This is the end of Part 1 for review on fallineyes and some of the lens they sell. Will do a Part 2 a few months later after I've really worn the lens. Can't comment on comfort and stuff now.

Seriously, I am NOT the only one with those stupid problems with fallineyes. Fidelis also had, and am still having such problems because her lens haven't even reach yet where we actually ordered and our batches closed at most 2 days apart?!

So will I ever buy from them again, 100% NO!!!

Edited: Read Part 2 Review Here!

Preview of my Japan Candy Magic lens.

Hi everyone! I'm on my way out for some hopefully window shopping. Serious do not wish to spend any money. =P
As you can see, I've changed my lens to blue lens. It's the Candy Magic lens I've ordered from fallineyes blogshop last month.
I have not checked them with the original pictures. But as my previous brown lens from Freshkon is already being used for slightly more than a month, I don't have any other choice but to wear there blues lens out today.
I know many people out there (and here of course) are seriously thinking if you should get japan lens from fallineyes. I promise I'll post a part 1 review on the blogshop. I can't do a review for the lens yet as you can see I've only wore the lens for like the past 2 hours when I got ready.
Ok. This shall be all for now.
Have a great weekend everyone!

Japanese Cosmetics: Candy Doll

I'm sure many already heard of the brand Dolly Wink which is produced by 益若つばさ, but have you heard of Candy Doll?



I got to know of this really かわいい brand after buying the Feb issue of Popteen and I find them really super adorable!

Be it you want a...



Natural Look

or a



Dolly Look

something more fun and wild!



It's like one of the few brands that actually has violet blusher!

Do not be afraid when you see/hear violet blusher.
It's actually being used as a highlight as shown in the Dolly Look above! (2nd Look)

I read reviews on Cozycot's forum from some cotters who actually managed to get their Candy Doll products and they states that the lip concealer and lip gloss is super good!

Oh man~ I wanna try, too!

Don't you wanna get you hands on some, too?

I'm thinking of asking my friend to help open a spree for this super 可愛い products!

Thank you!

Good morning!

こんにちは。

I'm blogging now simply because I can't sleep as my mom's nagging nagging nagging away ever since I got home like more than 5 hours ago. She keep saying she wanna go and sleep but well, she isn't alright. Just like how Fidel will put it, "yada yada yada"... LOL

Anyway...



Happy New Year (again) everyone! Hope that you got lots of red packets ya? I didn't receive many this year so... do help to give me red packets by clicking on my Nuffnang ads ya? heehee...



Here's my hairdo for the very 1st day of this Lunar New Year.



And of course, me in my cute-rose-filled 旗袍. (*゚ー゚)

Spent a whole afternoon with Dann, running from place to place and we even had lunch near my old office. Fishy soup was nice~~~

Went over to my 大伯's house that evening. I was so tired I actually fell asleep on the sofa with my cousins sitting around, watching Shanghai Knights on Channel 5.

2nd Day.



Was supposed to go to OZ's house for movie marathon but... oh well.. some things happened then the whole plan was cancelled. (´△`;)

Went to Marina Square with Dann and Gerry and we spent lots of money catching toys! LOL. I'm super happy I got my Monkey Doraemon!!! (゜▽゜)

It's the original one okay~ Not McDonald's one!

We then went over to Cineleisure for dinner with Xiang Min at night. Went over to the Hong Kong Cafe. I realised that I've been going there many times in the past week. Like... 4 times?! (.. )

After dinner, we went over to cuppage for KTV session! Sang till almost 2am! (・∀・)

3rd Day.



Started out my day with Dim Sum with my mom, aunite and uncle.

Dann wanted to join us but sadly that guy has to work. Horrible boss! Hump!



That's me! Got dragged out of bed in the morning so I look ridiculous!



My mommy! Had to make her laugh then snap a shot or all photos are just her making silly faces!



My uncle and auntie. heehee...

After Dim Sum, I went over to meet Xiang Min and Dann before going over to FFreddy's house. Oh man~ When I saw his mom I was like "I know her! She's the one that rejected me twice at both Project SuperStar Audition!"

( ̄△ ̄;)

It's a small world afterall... It's a small world afterall...
It's a small world afterall... It's a small small world...

Had dinner at Dann's house at night. Just the 2 of us and Dann made me yummy noodles! Heehee...

Love it when he cooks! (´・ω・`)

Just finished painting the nails I saw on the Ageha magazine I bought!



I tried to copy as much as possible to the best that I can of whatever I have of the nails the model on the front page has and here's the end product after 3 nights!



TADA!!!

Okay. There's a slightly clearer photo of her in other pages in the magazine lah~ Not exactly the same but like I said, as much as possible to the best that I can.

Shall wear it next month when my dear boyfriend goes overseas for reservist. ニャ~

Last thing before I end this post, I'll be filming for MyFatPocket's How-To video next month! Yippe! Theme is Japanese! Now I need your help! Do suggest to me what hairstyle, hairdo or makeup should I do! You can send me a photo of the hairdo you wanna learn how to do too! I'll try!

Thank you so much!

Okay. That's gonna be all for now.
Shall go back to try to sleep.

Good night everyone!
おやすみなさい。

Happy Lunar New Year!!!

Happy Tiger Lunar New Year Everyone!!!

Still staying up. Not exactly staying up for 守夜 tradition as it's not being practiced in my family. Just staying up cause I'm shopping for anime figurine online. =P

Shall post a short blog post here before I try to go to bed.

Firstly, I've received a tag on requesting a post on lens from fallineyes.blogspot.com. Well, hopefully I'll be able to post about it next week as I'll only post about it after I receive all my lens. But as of now, I can only say that my experience with them so far is very very bad. Even Fidel is pissed off with them lah!

So back to today (or rather yesterday), I met Dann for Percy Jackson & The Lighting Theif. Cooool~ Finally got to watch it. *ahem*

Went over to my dad's place for reunion dinner with my dad, stepmom, step grandparents, stepmom's youngest brother, 大伯 & 大伯母.



A whole table filled with fooooooood~

Ate ALOT lor~

After dinner, rushed down to Dann's place. Had soup that Dann's mom made.

おいしい~

Ok. Something special for now... I shall reveal how I look like when I'm home! Shhhhh~ Secret oh~



Here I am wearing the new pyjamas I bought. Grey with pink polka dots!

かわいい~



And here's how I tie my hair. High loose bun!

And below is how I look like ever since yesterday after getting my long curler



TADA!!!

It helps to keep my fringe in place and curled in so after sleeping, my fringe will still look nice nice in the morning!

One last thing...



TADA!!!

I received my cheque from 24Seven this afternoon! Sadded... Should have checked the mailbox when I left the house. It may already be here and I can bank it in together with the cheque I got yesterday from Nuffnang.

oh well.. still...

THANK YOU 24SEVEN!!!

Okay~ that's all for the night!

Have a good rest everyone!
Hope you enjoy your new year & valentine's day well!
Get a lot of red packets!!!

おやすみなさい。
