[Wig Review] Keautystore.com Pony Tail Review

Pictures curtesy of Keautystore.com

As promised, I am back with a new review from Keaurtystore.com! Today I am finally reviewing one of my favourite pieces i have ordered, the Style Pony Glam Wave Tie Up Ponytail! 

This pony tail is a 50 cm clip/tie in pony tale with a curly wave style at the bottom. Again I ordered it in the colour, natural brown as that is the colour that most suits my hair shade, although this particular style comes in 9 shades. That is the most I have ever seen any hair product across many online stores carry.

The hair piece stays on by a small set of comb teeth connected to a ribbon that ties. When putting in the hair piece, you first make a pony tail or a small bun. Clip the teeth into the hair elastic, and then tie the ribbon around the ponytail a few times until the hair wraps around your ponytail and looks natural. What I usually do with the rest of the ribbon is tie it in a bow underneath my pony tail and secure it down with a bobby pin. After that I either wrap a strand of hair around to cover the ribbon or use another decorative elastic over top.

RATINGS

Style: 4.5/5

I absolutely LOVE this hair piece. It is the perfect length, and adds a nice romantic look to any style. the curls are the bottom keep their shape beautifully and look really natural. I took a half point off because the ponytail itself isn't that thick, and after wearing it for some time the curls tighten and make it look much thinner and curlier rather then wavy. When my hair grows longer it will help thicken up the pony tail, but I'm not sure how it will effect the curls.

Quality: 5/5

I am always blown away by how amazing the quality of the hair products is at Keautystore. The quality you get for the price you pay is amazing, and all of their products last for so long even with constant wear. You do have the option to use heat on their hair products as well, although i don't advise it.

Ease of Use: 4/5

It is super easy to use this product, the only issue I have with it, is that some times the teeth come out or loosen your own hair tie, and it starts to fall out. If I'm going to be out for a long time, I always use extra bobby pins to secure everything just in case as well as tying everything really tight so it stays in.

Over all:4.5/5

As I have already mentioned, I love love LOVE this product. At $29.00US its not the cheapest (but lets be real.. 30 bucks is totally a great price) but I am so happy with this product. Its something I wear almost every day, and sometimes even wear it with my clip in extensions to make a nice half up half down hair style. Its definitely a great versatile piece.

Here are a few pictures with my wearing them!

[Wig Review] Upstyle Talent Queen Fashion Wig - Keautystore.com

As I had mentioned in my previous beauty haul, I ordered some new hair accessories and so far have been loving them! Today I will be reviewing the bun style wig i had purchased. 

I have been wanting to put my hair up in an acceptable bun for a really really long time. I cut my hair short in the winter and since then iv been stuck in that odd, mid length limbo. I can put my hair in a meek little ponytail but I love wearing top knots (which i cant anymore *sigh*).

While searching the website, I found a really cute bun style which was on sale for $4.30 from its original $8.60 price. I figured what could go wrong with buying it! Cheap, good reviews and it looked amazing on the model. 

Its always easy ordering hair items from this site, since they do a very good job at show casting the different colours and actually explaining what each colour looks like. This bun for instance comes in three different colours, natural black, natural brown and two toned brown. 

       Natural Black                                Natural Brown                                 Two Tone Brown

My hair has turned back to its natural dark brown hue, so the colour i chose was natural brown. Their explanation of the colour is "looks dark brown indoor and normal brown outdoor" which is exactly how i would explain my hair colour.

I was extremely excited when I finally received my parcel with all of my goodies. Everything was neatly packaged and ready to wear. The bun came individually packaged in a sealed plastic bag, and even came with a little instruction sheet to ensure you wear the bun properly.

Now for my Ratings!

Colour / shine = 5/5

As previously mentioned, the colour suits my hair perfectly. I was nervous at first since I wasn't sure if it would look too fake, or a completely different colour. It isn't shiny either and looks and feels like real hair. 

Quality =4/5

The quality is amazing for something that was less then 5 dollars. It doesn't shed and it stays in wonderfully. The only reason i took a point off is because it tangles quite easily. It is made with shorter hairs so even though it tangles, it is quite easy to get out. Also the elastic is extremely sturdy so far. 

Style = 3.5/5

The only thing that isn't amazing about this product is that i t looks slightly different then the models, which usually happens with online purchases. My bun isn't made with a smoother texture, it is more curly when i wear it. To smooth it out, i have to brush it and pin the ends down, otherwise it looks like a big curly mess at the back of my head. 

Overall =4/5

This product does exactly what i intended to use it for, and goes above and beyond what i thought it would for the price. It gives me the look i want, and is extremely comfortable to wear. Its easy to use, and takes me from a terrible hair day to a fabulous up do in minutes.

Lioele Lip Color Stick Review!

Ahhh, today was a pretty great day!! I met up with some friends for a lunch of Dukbokki and Bulgogi, some of my favourite foods on this planet, and then had a date night with my boyfriend! ^^ On top of that, I came home to find a pretty little package waiting for me on my doorstep :)

Omg..the food was almost too good..*drool*

hello friends on other side of the table ^^ and leg of friend beside me! lol

Now, what could that package be you ask? My Lioele Lip Color Sticks of course! I was amazed that it arrived only 5 days after I ordered from my new favourite site, LiliesShop.net! The package contained my lip colour set of 4 "flavours" as well as a sharpener and a little music note toe ring! >.< I love little bonuses!

from left to right: orange, strawberry, banana, cherry

At first look, I was a little nervous if the colours would look good, since they literally looked like harsh pencil crayons...But after putting them on, they instantly melt to a silky, easy to apply layer that moisturises your lips. I love the design since its really easy to define your lips with the tip of the pencil, and blend the colours in nicely using the edge. The colours are also really pretty and can work in a range of different looks! Each is lightly scented with the coinciding flavour which is a really nice soft touch.

Colour 1: Banana (yellow pencil)

This pencil acts more as a natural gloss. It doesn't have much colour, but it does have some light gold sparkles to it. It has a light banana scent and goes well with any natural glossy look! Great for every day/ school look.

Colour 2: Strawberry (pink pencil)

I think that this shade is a little too light for my skin tone, but apparently looks amazing in pictures on me. *Conceded Moment* It is a very light baby pink colour, and would be great for a really girly, dolly make up look. The more layers of colour you add, the more radiant the pink is! It is also lightly scented with a sweet strawberry smell.

Colour 3: Orange (orange pencil)

This one is my favourite! A super cute tangerine shade perfect for spring. Just like the others, it is scented with orange, and when layered the colour becomes more vibrant. This one would be really nice of an everyday shade that can be worn with many different styles and occasions.

Colour 4: Cherry (red pencil)

This colour is gorgeous on, and smells delicious. Definitely more glam then the others, with the bright red almost fuschia tint to it...(maybe that's just for me though..) Definitely a great colour for Valentine's Day, or for any special occasion for that matter. I can definitely see my self wearing this shade with an elegant up-do and hot black dress!

Swatches: Cherry, Orange, Strawberry, Banana

See the sparkle in the banana colour?? 

I got the whole set as a bundle for 25 dollars, which is a great deal, since separately they are 9.60 a piece. The toe ring is really cute as well, although i hate feet so i always wear socks....It will make a decent ring though ^^

Still to come, I have reviews on some other Lioele products, clip on bangs, as well as some new circle lenses! hopefully I will have received them all next week! Stay Tuned!! :)

Hair Extension Review!!

Today I was so happy to find a package in my mailbox, from Lilies Shop, a website that I stumbled, tripped over then fell head over heels in love with! The shop is based in Vancouver B.C, and carries a wide range of products, from skin care brands such as Innsifree and Etude House, to makeup by Lioele, and even synthetic and human hair wigs and extensions! All products are from reputable korean brands and are 100% real items. It was easy to find what you are looking for on the site, and helps identify what colour goes best with your hair, and even has reviews on the good and bad of each product. They even provide a tracking number for people that live in Canada if choosing the standard shipping option. Another thing i liked is that they have a great benefits program for returning shoppers, and even a percentage off for first time purchases! You really cant go wrong with that!

I purchased synthetic clip in hair extensions for the amazing price of 24.99 CND. They are a 50 cm, 12 piece clip in set which i bought in natural brown. One of the things i love about this hair, is that it feels like hair! even though its synthetic, it is shiny and soft, with a healthy shine, not glossy and fake looking like other synthetic hair. Another thing is that it blends in perfectly with my black brown hair. It adds a bit of volume to the hair, and also blends nicely all the way through the hair, almost like having layers. I was afraid my hair would look like a mushroom head, since i have very thick hair that all ends at the same place, but after all 12 pieces were in, there was a nice gradual thinning that happened, so it all looked very natural!

This is what they look like all clipped in :)

You can kind of see in the picture where my real hair starts, but if i actually did my hair as if i was going out, aka straightened it and not have it up in a bun all day, it would make a much more gradual transition.

With the hair, i also purchased small bottle of Wig Essence for 4 dollars. This is used to spray on the extensions before putting them in, and also before curling or straightening them. This helps them keep their original state longer, and moisturize and keep the hair from drying out and getting frizzy or tangled.

I was really happy to receive all this, but there were even more goodies inside then what i ordered! Due to the lunar new year, the wonderful people at Lilies Shop also gave out rings with every purchase ordered during the week I purchased the hair. Its a really cute black and gold adjustable ring with red flowers. Definitely something id wear. 

They also threw in a free sample of Lioele Beyond the Solution BB Cream, which i also had on my wish list on the site when i ordered, which i found pretty awesome.

The last thing I got, I found the coolest. Its a Lioele Pink Hair Pad

At first I was confused on how this worked until my mom opened the package and threw it at me. Low and behold it stuck right to my bangs! I noticed it was like a gentle Velcro, with little pieces sticking up and bent at the end to catch and hold the hair.

Close up of hair pad!

Its really cute and actually holds hair back from your face, or in place. At one point I was using it to hold my bun together because I couldn't find a hair elastic! Its literally as easy to use as brushing your hair back.

Over all, I was so pleased with everything i got and the quality of everything i have used thus far! Even the ring is better quality then i thought it would be, although it is a bit small... >.> I will definitely be ordering from Lilies Shop again soon, and I think everyone else should give it a go too!!
