Circle Lens — EOS Flower Pink

 Diameter: 14.0mm
Base Curve: 8.6mm

I've had these lenses for quite a while now and they were from an online shop called Japanese Candy. I can't  remember exactly how much they were but it wasn't at all expensive. I'd say around the £15 to £25 mark including postage and they last a pretty long time too! These are my second pair of contacts, the first one being a two-toned green which I had about 3 years ago. As you can see, the lenses have a pink floral design which surprisingly show very well even with dark eyes like mine. They are very easy to put on and comfort-wise, they're pretty okay. I can wear them for about 8 hours straight, possibly even 10 if I wanna push it. 

I don't wear fashion or circle lenses on a regular basis, but I like having them anyway for days when I want to make my look that tiny bit more interesting. These lenses are lovely and I really adore them! Although sadly, I think it won't be long until I have to throw them away, as I've had them for quite a while now. I do however, have a new pair, yey! I will make a post on that one sometime soon too! x

Pixi Lash Line Ink

Pixi Lash Line Ink in Black Silk £12

Last year, I bought the Pixi Lash Line Ink soon after seeing Lily Melrose write about it on her blog. I was in search for a new pen liner since the Collection 2000 Extreme 24 Hour Felt Tip Liner just wasn't cutting it for me anymore. The main selling point for me on this one is the pointed nib that apparently held its shape through time, which I find it really did! It applies really smoothly and the fine tip makes for a nice precise flick, which I also love! It isn't as waterproof as it claims to be but it stays on pretty well — proving you don't cry buckets. Haha! 

The only problem I had with this is that it would start to smudge onto my crease after a few hours of wear. I don't particularly have oily lids but I would have to use powder or eye shadow to prevent the smudging. I've heard other people with similar issues but some seem to get on just fine. I'm afraid you're going to have to test it out yourself to find out. Other than that, I think it's a really good and reliable eyeliner, especially for everyday use. It's not the cheapest but I think it can be really worth the money. After all, it lasted me three months and I used it almost everyday. I would probably repurchase it too if I don't find a better alternative! Mine is starting to dry out now so I'm on a hunt for another pen liner. Any suggestions? x
