[0] /// fresh start

I was planning on writing this post from 31th December last year already, but i was always queing it, because actually - i was (and still I am) unsure about what should I write. So yeah, the new lunar year is a good excuse with my lazyness too.
This blog is more than year old now and with my 170+ followers which support me in writing I am happier than I had even imagined when I was starting it. Personally, I actually hate(?) being too personal, but I also dislike to being not at least a little bit personal with posts - because that's what I think it's not really blogging. Just doing reviews, gaining desperately followers and do giveaways is not really my cup of coffee. 
Unfortunately, I've seen like bilion of blogs like this and I'm not saying my blog isn't (wasn't) the same.
So yeah, you can guess my the most important blogger-being resolution.

"Actually start to really "blog"."

I will try to limit so-mainstream filling blog posts (to me) like reviewing cosmetics, lenses, toilet paper or whatever and ranting about irrelevant things. 
I decided to not delete old review post, but they're not called "review" anymore. I will try to find more interesting topics to write about, and recently I got the new camera for birthday, so hopefully I will post a lot of photo posts too! 

***************

Anyway, just to not only talk about my blogging "carrier" I think I should add my resolution for the real life too. 
So yeah, there is it:

1. Be more sociable.
This year I started kind of nicely and I stopped sitting all my day on the internet and actually went out. I literally found a new undiscovered world full of friends and though there were some regretful things, I think I started to like this magical thing called "friendship" okay?

2. Stop worrying about shitty things. 
You knose horrible moments/days/weeks where you just want to forget everything and cuddle in the bed in the fluffiest warm blanket with the biggest teddy bear you can find and cup of hot tea? 
Yep I mean those. I can lively remember those days when I was silently crying in the bed because fuck you all and thought that nothing could be worse than this stupid shit what is happening to me at that moment. Actuallly, it's pretty hard to fullfill this resolution. But I'm trying, because, what good does it bring to you when you spend like xxxx time worrying/being depressed about worthless things.

3. Don't trust so easily and never just rely on few people. 
No, I'm not talking to some children about being careful to some pedo behind a every corner on the earth, but to myself. I was hurted a lot by trusting some people too much and I got burn. I think it's worthy experience because unless you will experience it, you won't believe me. After xxxx year I realized how much stupid and manipulable I am and now I'm trying to be careful about that. It helped me a lot when I started to meet new people which actually helped me to realize I was naive about lot of things. 

Ok I think I was pretty much serious about these things and just not to being here dead boring serious here are few other resolution I really wish I could fullfill LOL. 

4. Grow long hair. 
I cut them about half year ago to shoulder length and I was regretting it the whole time. So now I will to grow them back to at least 3/4 of my back because watching girls with beautiful healthy long hair makes me jealous and sad LOL. 

5. Be less hobo like. 
I think it's good time for the change. I'm "big girl" now so why not ok.

6. Try to buy everything on my wishlist. 
I think this should be more like "Love myself" resolution, because if I would fullfill it then I would REALLY love myself or just unexpectly get ridiculously rich. Not sure what is more realistic there.


Well yeah, that's pretty much what I wanted to say. I didn't think that this post will be that length-y *no regret* I was writing this all while watching Vampire Diaries with my friends and I don't even regret it because it's not really my cup of tea. (hardcore sherlockian posh face) *and testing mobile blogger app, so I'm pretty much curious how this post will look end up. 


To not make this post as boring as it really is, here's my first (chinese) year selca. I hope you got a lot of red envelopes, because receiving them is my the most loved activity during celebration period c_c 

Don't forget to say thank you after receiving them. Or 新年快乐 before even receiving them or you should burn in hell. I've seen little kids who just snapped them even without saying 恭喜发财 and I'm pretty sure their parents were regretting they didn't stuffed blank paper in the hóng bão instead. 
Gōng hè xīn xǐ xoxo.

Geo Super Angel XCM215

Hello!As you can see, I changed the url of my blog recently, which made my traffics to be less than usual, but I hope soon I will be able to catch it up.
Today I have for you a circle lens review of GEO XCM215 aka Geo Super Angel Grey. These lenses are bigger version of bestsellers Geo CM835. These were provided by UNIQSO, thank you very much! Originally, I was sent these lenses like 4 months ago, but I absolutely forget about them after I made an eye make up tutorial which is >here< If you would check it up, I would be very happy, thank you !

Basic information

Diameter: 14.8mm
Water content: 38%
Base curve: 8.6mm
Replacement period: 12 months



I made a eye make up tutorial with these lenses - please check it out!

DESIGN & COLOR ★★★ : 
Like most grey lenses, these also have blueish tint, so sometimes they appear more blue than grey to me.  I'm not really fan of the design, because I generally don't wear unnatural lenses for these few months already, but if you want dolly look, go for them. They have really thick limbal ring which does really define your eyes and grab attention. I love using these lenses when I want to look dolly, or more gyaru-looking like, but unfortunately it doesn't happen too often :( 


ENLARGEMENT ★★:
These lenses are HUGE. I mean, it's 14.8mm after all. They will surely bring you that "dolly look"but I wouldn't go with these on everyday basis. But overally I love the enlargement they give, your face looks absolutely different than without them. Heavy eye make up is must. (unless you already have huge eyes like anime person or want to scare shit out of your boyfriend)


COMFORT ★★
Though Geo lenses aren't really my most favourite lenses, because of my dry eye syndrom, these were a lot more comfortable than my  Geo tri-color CM903 & CM905. I was wearing them in the summer, when I was working in maid cafe, and aproximately I had them 9-11 hours on. (yeah, I know it's not healthy, but it lasted just for 3days, so I guess it's acceptable)


OVERALL ★★ :
I give it just 4 stars, because they're really not one of my favourite lenses ever. I DO think those are really pretty and comfortable, but well... personal preferences. If you like this kind of design and want to make your eyes pop, with these you can't go wrong. They are really lovely (for example for cosplaying or if you eant to archieve gyaru look). 


That's all for today :) thank you for reading my review, and don't forget to check UNIQSO for more information!
