✩26 Lashes Haul✩



 

This...
This shopping order started off as such a terrible nightmare.

I had no idea lashes were so hard to find. Especially Twinkle Lash. I was in desperate need of bottom lashes being down to my last pair. And they're not even that great. I had to do surgery on like three different pairs to even get something decent. So when I got paid, I knew it was time to contact my favorite SS - Tenshi Shop.

I found a list of all the ones I wanted and requested on their site. Little did I know that even after sending so many links, a lot of them were with dead accounts. Tenshi let me know right away and thankfully I was able to work with them to getting new links. Of course, some still didn't work out because they seem to be rare again. But I did manage to still get a lot.

A bunch of emails went back and forth, trying to see if I could finally get the lashes I wanted. And finally, I got most of what was on my list. Tenshi is so patient and amazing. I'm so grateful for this shopping service.

After everything was said and done (finally), my package was mailed out and arrived pretty quickly. And when I tell you, I felt like I was in gal heaven...it truly was when I opened that box.

Just look at all these gorgeous lashes.

I never used Eyemazing or Twinkle Lash before so it was very exciting to see how they would look. I can now see why so many gals live by these brands. Especially if you're into Amekaji or any oldschool styles.

They're perfect.

Thanks to Tenshi Shop, I was able to get these:

Twinkle Lash

Eyemazing

Diamond Lash

I didn't buy as many of this brand because for some reason a lot of sellers are trying to double the price. The brand still exists so I have no idea why they're doing this. So I only bought these. I do eventually need to buy more of Princess Eye but the prices were just ridic. It's my favorite style of bottom lashes! So hopefully one day~

I'd like to give a HUGE shoutout to Tenshi Shop for working with me on this order. If it weren't for them, I would have cried. So many thanks for them being so patient and helping me get what I needed!

DEFINITELY USE THEM. THEY'RE AMAZING.

That's all for now! Hope you liked my haul!

✩25 Papillon Halloween Lookbook✩



I can finally talk about this!

How are you buns? Did you check out the latest lookbook from Papillon?

Check it out here if you haven't!

It's the 2020 Galloween issue and I was so happy to be a part of it again. There were so many amazing looks. I love Halloween and how creative many people can be. Especially in our own comm~

I'd like to share with you some of my favorite spreads.


















This issue looked phenomenal! I'm even more happy to see more faces. Everyone is so talented.

Can we also talk about Shani's amazing back cover art?

I got to do a couple of spreads as well.


Star's deco sticker skills are always top tier. I really fell in love with the bats!


I'm so happy with how everything came out. It made me laugh how opposite my spreads were. But I'm super proud of them! And as always, I'm so grateful for the amazing gals I get to work with.
LOVE YOU ALL.

What were your favorite spreads? Are you going to dress up for Halloween?
Let me know in the comments!

✩24 Why You Shouldn't Give Up✩




So it's been a week. 
I'm so thankful I'm off at least for the weekend. I still have some Papillon🦋 work to do but at least I'm working at home. I had a rollercoaster of emotions and incidents as well. But, I made it through.

Have you ever had opposing forces from other people about what you do with your life? It really sucks. Especially when they know nothing about the subject or your life. And I'm extremely lucky to have the support I do. Because without them, I would be in a very bad place.

It's just amazing that people feel the need to make a commentary on just about anything that you never asked for their opinion. You can offer concrit or just generic help. But you don't have to be an ass about it. 

So what do you do?

 When I need actual opinions that matter, I ask friends and my hubby. They actually know a bit about me and understand a lot of the topics. Their opinions hold more weight than a total stranger and they can actually give me legit reasons of why something is or isn't.

 When I feel defeated or down and can't see the same friends, I take it upon myself to look up things that make me happy. I love watching videos of crafting or gal tutorials. Sometimes I'll play a video game. Or I just mess around on a Discord server. Sometimes it will just take a few minutes being online to help.

 If I need a little pick me up, I will dress myself up a little. I'll throw on at least a cute top or do some makeup look that is a lot more colorful. Something to physically brighten me up. And sometimes it really helps!

These are just a few things that I do.
I feel so grateful that the people I care about will also remind me that things aren't always going to be bad. That what I'm going through will pass and I'll be able to smile again. It might take a little time but everyone does things at their own pace. 

Because you know what?
I don't have time to let others affect my mental health. I have things to do and take care of. I get that my content is not very exciting or that I don't have fancy photoshoots. I don't live in an amazing house with a lavish lifestyle. I'm just a gal with different hobbies and a retail job. I'm doing what I can and that's what I aim to do until I can get that fancy and fun life.

So never give up. Because that will make you even more sad because you're no longer doing things you love. And that will allow the opposing force win. And we can't have that.
