Pastel Dreams Shoes & Accessories Haul & Review #2 - Giselle & Naty Swan Circle Lenses!

Konnichiwa Minna-san! ♥
UPDATE! You can now find all the products from Pastel Dreams at the new website!
 Today I have a second Pastel Dreams Haul!! This was one of my most viewed posts, so here is No.2

My haul today will consist of two different circle lenses! One which I bought myself and the other was a lovely gift from my friend Sofia, the amazing girl behind the brand ♥


Both of the lenses came in different types of packaging which was kind of a new one for me, as i'm pretty used to using the vials. 




Overall I still prefer the vials over the foil leaflet type packaging, even though the vials are a little fiddly to work with I feel like they would keep the contacts safer. Opening the foil packets is also a little messier as the contact lens solution tends to squirt out of the packet and soak everywhere! Which is kind of amusing at the same time (ノ◕ヮ◕)ノ*:・゚✧


Giselle - SW4 - Shade Blue
Replacement Period - 1 Year
Base Curve - 8.6mm
Diameter - 15mm
Water Content - 38%
Power - 0.00


I think these lenses are absolutely gorgeous, although my eyes are hazel they are still noticeable. The lenses are a mix of two tone blue and green which give a strange dimensional effect to the eyes, personally I think they will be far better on grey and blue eyes but I am still very shocked and how well they show up on mine. The are very comfortable for 15mm lenses and have a lovely natural effect which I like for every day use. Overall they are a big 10/10 for me and a wonderfully unexpected gift from a dear friend ♥ 


Naty Swan - Shade Pink
Replacement Period - 1 Year
Base Curve - 8.6mm
Diameter - 15mm
Water Content - 38%
Power - 0.00


I LOVE THESE! Oh wow, they are beautiful. I don't think these photos can do these lenses any justice. They have a thick black band around the lens which I love, this gives me an amazing dolly look. They are very comfortable and have a lovely colour pay off, they are incredibly noticeable in the sun light. I think these will be fantastic on any colour of eyes, for darker eyes they look porcelain dolly-like and for paler eyes they will probably look a little more vampy. Overall they are wonderful lenses, excellent quality I will definitely be buying these in other colours, 10/10.

Konnichiwa Minna-san! ♥ 
UPDATE! You can now find all the products from Pastel Dreams at the new website!


Today i'm looking at PastelDreamShoes @ Etsy, my lovely friend Sofia sent me some of her cute handmade products to check out and review for her! xxx. 




First thing I seen when I opened my parcel was the adorable business card for her shop. It has all of the social media links and the link to the store on Etsy ♥



The product I was greeted with were these adorable little hair clips !♥ These are the Pastel Fairy Kei Angel Wings and they are beautiful. I got them in a blue-ish colour with a slight sparkle to them, they've also got crocodile clips which i'm super happy about because they help attach to my hair a lot easier ♥ Overall i'm 100% in love with these clips, they're so well made and easily wearable without being too much. 

The second item is a Kawaii Fairy Kei Sweets Bracelet ♥ I asked for the lilac and pink colour scheme since those are my favourite colours, and I couldn't be happier with it! They're two different chains with 6 charms; A macaroon, cake slice, cupcake, doughnut & two ice cream cones. The quality is lovely and you can definitely tell that this is handmade which I adore. Amazing little item and fantastic for a gift!



My final item is a Kawaii Pastel Fairy Kei Necklace ♥ This is super long on me, almost below my bra which I actually like very much. The quality is really good with the super cute rose details. the colours are painted on really well and fade into one another beautifully which I love. Overall I think this is a sweet product for anyone who is into statement jewellery or anything pastel for that matter! ♥ 

I love all of my items from PastelDreamShoes!! ♥ Ahh they're so adorable, Sofia has many more items for sale in her Etsy Store including amazing hand painted shoes, which I cannot get over! they're too cute ♥ All of these products can be different colours and styles from pastels to gothic blacks and reds.

Dolly Pastel Lolita Make-Up Look (◕ ◡ ◕)


Konbanwa Minna-san! ♥ Today I have brought you a Pastel Lolita Make-up Look.

Firstly I started with the eye make-up and I applied Too Faced Shadow Insurance in Candlelight to prevent the eye-shadows from creasing.

Secondly I applied a Champagne colour on the inner two thirds of the eye, for me I used Urban Decay's Sin.

Following this I began the apply the purple/lilac shades to the outer corners of the eye and whilst doing this I was also bringing the colour up into the crease. For this I used a mixture of Inglot shades and colours from my 88 Palette from Coastal Scents. From here it is just about blending and applying until you get the right balance. 


On the inner corners I used a bright white eye-shadow from my NYX Palette, which I believe is supposed to be a dupe of the Urban Decay Naked Palette. From there I also applied a white eyeliner on the waterline, and I used an MUA pencil liner which is absolutely fantastic for this.

After applying the eyeliner to the waterline I proceeded to connect to purple colour from the outer crease to the white eye-shadow on the inner corner.

I then lined my eyes with Urban Decay's 24/7 Liquid Eyeliner in Perversion, then I curled my lashes and applied my mascara which is from Estée Lauder. I then finally applied false eye-lashes which are from EBay. 


For my face I applied my usual Coconut Oil as a moisturizer as I have very dry skin, and then proceeded with my BB cream from Korea and the brand is Skin79. I also applied my under eye concealer from Lancomé.

For my cheeks I used a highlighter from Revolution, and it was in a pink-ish/beige shade. I then applied my 
Estée Lauder blush and the face was complete!

Finally for the lips I filled them in with an Inglot Lip liner and applied a beige/pink coloured lip stick to finish. 


Annnd that's it for my Pastel Lolita Look, I hope you enjoyed the mini tutorial that went with it!

I'm hoping to add more Kawaii/Lolita make-up looks in the future, along with reviews on make-up and fashion products.


Thank you for reading!
