Sweet site reviews.

I have been discovering a lot of new sites lately and I just wanted to share them all with you. They all seem to have really good stuff at great prices and I have heard good things about all of them. I totally intend to try some of the products from these sites myself  I am just waiting until I get a little bit more money.

Subscription sample sites: These sites charge a small fee each month. They send you a box full of sample products and sometimes they even send full size products. Not sure what one I want to try first yet but if you have tried any of them or want to suggest one please let me know.

myglam.com: The subscription for this site is $10 a month or $110 for the whole year. When you first get to the site they have you take a quiz on what your make-up wearing style is and I really like that about it. I have seen a few people on Youtube get this and do reviews on it and they all had good things to say. Not only do they send samples of really good products but sometimes you will get a full sized product that usually retails double or more of what the cost for the month of your MyGlam bag. That's another thing I really like is that I'm not 100% but  I am pretty sure every month they send you a new make-up bag.

birchbox.com: This site has the same subscription prices as MyGlam does. I really like this site because it gives you points to put towards products in their store. Also, all of the proceeds from the full sized products in the store go to charity and that is ALWAYS a plus. Another thing Birchbox has in common with MyGlam is that they have really good brands and like I said before they send full sized versions too.

Beauty supply sites: Pretty self explanatory....

mizoutlet.com: This is basically like an online dollar store. I've heard everything is really good quality though. They have a bunch of different stuff from tights to hair bows to lip gloss and even jewelry. Everything on here is really cute and stylish (well, aside from the scrunchies.) I really like the bracelets and the hair clips. Another thing I really liked is that everything comes in a bunch of different colors.

cydangieshop.com:  Cydangie as you may know is a make-up guru on Youtube. She has a lot of stuff on her site for sale. I don't know if she makes some of the stuff or what. Anyway, everything on there is really nice stuff for pretty low prices. Definitely if you are looking for good affordable make-up brushes or eye shadow palettes I would check this out.

bornprettystore.com: This site is INSANE. I really could not believe the things they had on here. they had all kinds of stuff. They had those creepy test hands like they have at cosmetology school for practicing acrylics, they had eyelash extension kits, they even had a whole section of Hello Kitty stuff (I know my sister would LOVE this.) I was really surprised at the prices too everything was way cheap. It still looked like it had really good quality though. Another great thing about this site they have free shipping which is awesome for anyone. Anyone at all.

cherryculture.com: This is kind of like another online dollar store but they do have some higher priced stuff too. I really liked that they had L.A. colors because that is one of my favorite "drugstore" brands especially for eyeshadow. I usually buy it at the dollar store but they never seem to have all the colors. They for sure don't have all the colors that Cherry Culture has. L.A. colors despite being a dollar store make up is actually really good, the only thing i don't like is mine seem to break easy (but, then again I have had them for a while and I toted them around alot.) I also really liked the nail polish they had every color looked like fun.

foxylocks.com: I have heard a ton about this site. It's for hair extensions. They are clip ins, of course, and they ARE human hair. They also have instant beehives if you are going for that Amy Winehouse look.  In addition to that there are false lashes on here too. They come in a lot of different colors to match your hair type and they come in three different thicknesses. I have heard they last pretty well for about six months if you wear them everyday and if you are really paranoid about them getting messed up they also have cases to keep them in while you sleep or whatever.

flatironexperts.com: Basically this is just a WHOLE LOT of hair stuff. They have every kind of straightener,  curling iron, hair dryer, and roller set you could imagine. They range anywhere from $30 to over $300. So, if you are a hairstylist and you can't find what you are looking for at Sally or Aerial I would try this site. by the name of the site I know it seems like they would just have styling tools but they also have a wide selection of hair care stuff. They have waxing kits and extensions on here too.

Circle lens sites: If you haven't heard of circle lenses, it's what Lady GaGa wears in the "Telephone" video. If you haven't seen that they are basically contact lenses to make your iris appear bigger and more doll like. True circle lenses are just a black ring surrounding your outer iris but they come in all kinds of different styles and colors.

candylens.com: I like this site mainly because it offers a wide selection of circle lens. It also has some beauty products. Probably my favorite thing I am really looking forward to trying is the face masks on here. The one thing I don't like about this site is their selection of lens cases.

pinkyparadise.com: I like that this site has a wide selection of everything. The circle lenses are fairly affordable on here but, not too impressed by the prices on the beauty products.

kiwiberry1-collection.com: I really like this site just for the lenses themselves. They really don't have too much of a selection of other stuff. They do run promotions quite often though so, that's nice. Another thing I like about this site is they have a prescription lense section. In the other sites I found that part kind of confusing.

honeycolor.com: The prices on this site are pretty decent. This is definitely my favorite site for lens cases because they have such a wide selection and they are all really cute. They also have the best selection of eye drops I have seen. probably my favorite circle lens site I have found.

Clothing sites: Need I say more?

glamorose.com: This is mainly just a lingerie store. They do have some cute shoes and some other stuff too. What I liked most about this site is everything was priced really well and  they looked pretty high quality. Only time will tell. I thought I would share it with you anyway because I know if you do modeling you are always looking for good stuff for shoots.

lovemode.com: I heard about this site from a girl I subscribe to on Youtube. She modeled a couple of outfits that I thought were cute so I went and checked it out. Everything was really cute and stylish. I also liked that everything was under $25. I was eyeing up a couple of dresses so I will let you know what I think when I get them, if I get them.

rustyzipper.com: This is a vintage clothing site. I don't know how you feel about vintage but I L.o.V.E it! I found this site a few years ago and now that I have the platform to do it I am glad to share it with you. At some point I will have to post a picture of a dress I got from there that mysteriously disappeared. It was like this mini dress with bell sleeves and it was silver. It was gorgeous I really have no idea what happened to it I am super sad. Anyway I love vintage because it is so unique and since I reside in an area where it's very hard to find vintage I truly adore this store. I have been looking at some peasant skirts on there that I am for sure going to get once I get paid. I will let you know what I think. For real go check out this site, it is awesome!


Well that's all I have for you today. Not sure what is coming up next pretty sure you will enjoy it probably a tutorial. Anything else you wanna see? Leave a comment and I will check it out.

check ya later kittens! xo.

Itsxreally bad to get non prescription lenses!!!! If u really want something lime this u should really check places like walmart optical they have alot of novelty lenses but u will be fitted by a professional! Other optical places may do fittings too. I know it's $20 when you have an eye exam. But seriously these r very dangerous! If u wear contacts that aren't right for you it can scratch your cornea and cause permanent damage!! U really don't want me ti havta go get u corneas!
