Road to Gyaru

Hey Gals sorry I havent posted in a couple days I have been busy with work and planning for Denver's Comic Con. Well heres a update, yesterday I finally got my model 21 lashes in and I have not tried them on yet but just looking at them the quality looks AMAZING!! I will be doing a review as soon as possible so look forward to that. I am also going to be updating on the progress of my Hinata Hyuga ( shippuden) cosplay and will be putting up pics of different pieces done as soon as I get them done.  Other than that hopefully after Comic Con I will be doing a few hauls from rakuten or  another similar store. Also I have started a Gal Circle for Colorado if anyone that reads this is interested contact me, we are always welcoming new members seeing as we only have 3. Sorry for just the quick update I got to head to work soon and you all know how long it takes to get ready lol. Have an AMAZING day!!

       Hey everyone, so a couple of days ago after a long day at work I went to Target to go get me a few E.L.F products I have been dying to try. I ended up picking up the bronzer/blush pallet, $1 lip gloss in Pink Lemonade, the $1 Crease definer brush (which I use to contour), and the $1 eyelash curler. So far I am enjoying all of them a lot. I will wait to do a full review so I can try it out for a week first. So check back in a couple days for the full review on all the products.I will be also doing another haul in a couple weeks so if you know any good makeup products to try, comment and let me know.

Hey Gals, this post is just going to be a short review/outfit of the day post. Yesterday I received my lashes I got from Ebay. I am still waiting for my makeup21 lashes so I can do a comparison, well here we go.


                                            So I ordered the #8(which were difficult to find)
                                                      this is how the packaging looked. 
                                                                             
                                    I was surprised the packaging was still in good condition
                               I seen a lot of people receiving their package highly damaged. 
                                                     
                                             This is the package opened so you can see lashes
                                                                                    

                                              So as you can see I got a pack of 10 for around $1.50
                                                 I was able to try these for only one day so far and 
                                                   I got to say they are not bad at all for the price.
                                           They do have a little plastic look to them but not much at all.
                                     They are a little hard to make form to your eye but not impossible. 
                                                       Over all so far they are worth the money.

                                                       A few pics of me wearing them



                                                                

                                                           Review

                                               Comfort: 7/10 I am able to feel them on and
                                       at some points they feel weird on the band but not bad
                                          
                                       Effect: 8/10 I love the effect these give, they are dramatic
                                  but they still have a natural look. The only downside is they
                                    look a little shiny or plastic like but not as bad as other ones.
                                                         Over all I give these a 7/10.

                                      

                    
                                                                              

                                                                    Contest Link!!

So I am posting this to inform my readers that one of my favorite Western Gals is having a contest .  I put a link to the blog and info on it. Go check it out there is awesome prizes and its by an awesome person.

    So I noticed a lot of people going through hard times right now and just so you all know you are not alone. Whatever the problem is we got to stay strong because if we let ourselves get depressed and hurt then those things/people win.  My problem right now is my relationship sadly, I have been with this guy since 9th grade and I am 21 now. We did break up for 2 years in betwee but other than that we haven't been apart.  I even got a beautiful daughter from him and to this day I still love him to death. The problem is his anger, no I do not get hit or anything like that but I do get called some pretty horrible names and get told some horrible things.  Even though sometimes I dont cry it hurts every time, at time things are said so much I do start believing them. In the end though I know the things being said to me aren't true so after I have the time to calm down I understand this. I think high school is where all of the names and dishonesty started. I was lied to constantly while we were together and almost and maybe even cheated on a few times. That is when my cutting started and it lasted up until a year ago, that was when I was believing everything said about me. I just see so many people going through depression or pain right now and I want everyone to know I am here to talk. I have been through a lot in my past and if I could help some people conquer depression like I did I would be happy. I am still with the guy to this day he really did change tremendously, but we do have hard times and today was one of those times. The names were thrown around and no one but my feelings were hurt.  I could of fell back on my old ways of hurting myself but today I feel more like putting more of my story out in hopes of helping someone.  People see me and think I am one of the happiest people ever but in reality I cover up a lot of emotions. I don't have really anyone to talk to seeing as in high school I was always with this guy and never made any friends. So when days like this happen I feel extremely lonely and vulnerable, but I am trying something new and everytime I need to talk to someone I will blog. Its the easiest way of getting all my emotions out and maybe get some advice on the way. When you feel depressed or lonely I suggest blogging to get it off your mind or finding someone on the internet or somewhere else to talk to. Never harm yourself believe me it might make it feel better at the time but growing up with people asking you where those scars are from (expecially when its your daughter) it is embarrassing and in the end you will regret doing it. We are all beautiful and shouldnt harm our beautiful bodys. There really is people who will help you and things you can do to help as well.  Also never change yourself for anyone if they do not appreciate you or respect what you like then they are not worth it. I hopw this helps someone out someday. Stay Strong everyone!!

Outfit

   Hey lovely's today I am going to be talking about what I think of Gyaru secrets. Well for most of you reading this you  probably know about Gyaru secrets, if not here is a fast description. It is a site where some Western Gyaru bash on other Gyaru. I think it was actually made for people to get help and such but people made it into a bashing place with people taking random photos of different Gyaru and then tearing them to shreds. I have actually heard a lot of Gals talk about how when they first heard about this site it scared them to put any Gyaru pictures out because they believed it would end up on Gyaru Secrets.

   Well let me tell you my opinion unlike a lot of people no I am not scared of my pictures going on the site because no matter how I look I am enjoying attempting/doing my style. But not everyone is like that, and we should all be celebrating that we all love Japanese culture and the Gyaru culture enough to bring it back to our own countries with us. No matter what, we all have love for the same thing so why not unite instead of hate, maybe if we did that eventually we would be able to get more of our fashion out here. I understand healthy criticism and advice but when your commenting on someone weight or are too harsh that's just not OK that turns into bullying. We should all bond because we already know the looks and the bullying we get doing this style in our own countries why go back and bully someone who is trying to do what they love. Every women and man are beautiful in their own ways and deserve to do what they love and not get bashed for it. 

  For all you people getting bullied you have to stay strong and confident and they will not phase you. So what if someone took their time to write a bunch of bull about you on Gyaru secrets as long as your confident with how you look and who you are then you have nothing to worry about. Letting them phase you is just going to get them to win and the most important NEVER GIVE UP!! There has been times when I wanted to give up not on just style but on life in general, I did things in the
past I regret. Now I see why because I had no confidence in myself.



  This is not only for Gyaru Secrets but for bullying in general. I went through a time when I was causing myself harm because the bullying and the lack of confidence made me feel so insignificant. This is actually my first time telling anyone about my self harm besides my close family. I just want to help someone like I know some people helped me. I have not caused myself harm for a good 1 1/2 years now and I am still staying strong. Self harm is the worst way to go because you fall into depression and even if you are surrounded by people who love you, you still feel  alone. This is because your not happy with yourself and before you can get to normal again you have to build confidence in yourself. After I realized this it took me a good year to start growing confidence and I feel like I have come extremely far in the past couple months. I feel as if now I am able to sit through people putting me down and not feel bad about myself at all. I know I still got a while to go before I become my normal self again but hey I am making amazing progress.

  So don't ever feel alone if you getting bullied or if you lack confidence there will always be at least one person out there that cares about you even if you know them or not. I am also here for anyone who would like to talk. I am a very good listener and would love to help anyone who needs it. Even if you feel like there is no one
