(Review ★) I-Codi Eclipse CO4 01 Grey & Kantai Collection - E19 Wig [SPONSORED by UNIQSO]


Hello Beauty Holics
I'm back with another review of very colorful wig and circle lens sponsored by UNIQSO

One of the good thing about UNIQSO's circle lens DHL Global Mail shipping method, is that I always am able to get the lens within a week or so (roughly 5 Business Days to US)

So if you are getting ready to purchase some colorful circle lens to spice up your Halloween look, I definitely recommend using that DHL Global Mail , so you can receive your package in time






DESCRIPTION 
Diameter: 15mm
Water Content: 38%
Base Curve: 8.6mm
Usage: 1 Year
Price: $22.90 USD


This lens comes in 5 different colors, which includes:
4 Tone Blue, 4 Tone Brown, 4 Tone Grey,  1 Tone Black and 1 Tone Brown


If you are one of those people who are more into more of a dolly and natural look, I definitely recommend to try out 1 Tone series

But if you are one of those people who are more into colorful lens which will make your eyes definitely be noticed, I recommend the 4 Tone series




LIGHT TEST



For this review's light test, I was not able to take the picture in natural lighting, because of conflict between my work schedule, I was never free during when Sun is out (Also it has been very rainy and smokey due to natural fires around the area)



HULA EFFECT & DOUGHNUT EFFECT TEST









OVERALL RATING
Comfort:  ★★★★★ / ★★★★★
Hula Effect: ★★★★★ / ★★★★★
Doughnut Effect: ★★★★★ / ★★★★★
Color: ☆☆★★★ / ★★★★★
Design: ★★★★★ / ★★★★★
Enlargement: ★★★★★ / ★★★★★

Comfort, I don't know if it is just me, but usually when I look at color contacts with lots of colors in, it makes me worry about "what if it's uncomfortable"
However, despite the fact that this lens contains 4 different colors as well as using very solid pigments, I rarely felt any irritation or discomfort in my eyes
Rather, it felt very comfortable, it made me think if I was wearing circle lens or not
So for those people who are planning to go out to a party on weekends and want to make you look very flashy, this is something to give that nice boost


Hula Effect, Even after about 8 hours of wearing, this lens barely felt dry
And cause of the fact how it is able to stay so moist, it did not cause the lens to not follow my eye movements and cause blurry vision


Doughnut Effect, I think when you look at the picture, this pretty much gives out
Since the lens uses solid colors your natural eye color will be completely covered
Therefore, there's no gap between the color prints of the lens and your natural eye will not be visible
I think this is first time, I personally seeing that there is a circle lens that can cover up my dark brown eyes pretty well

Color, when I got to pick the circle lens, the main reason why I picked this one out is because of the color
I got very interested in the fact how it gives out different appearance, depending on how you wear it
Usually on normal uses, this lens appears to be grey
But when I'm wearing different color wig, it gives almost purplish tone to it rather than being grey!!
I think the yellow tone that is mixed in the print some how affects the whole color scheme of the lens!!
If you want some new colors to try out, this is something fun to try out!!

Design,  Considering how crazy the color is on this lens, they tried to keep the design of the lens fairly simple appearance, so it does not appear to be overdone
Black rim is very thin, which allows the eyes to look more normal, and able to neutralize the colors
And by adding slight black dots on inner part of the lens, gives more of natural appearance as well
Cause of the way it's designed, many people thought this lens was my actual eye color

Enlargement, Now when I order this lens, I did not expected it to be 15mm
I thought it was normal diameter lens, but when I finally got it and tried on, boy was I surprised
Since I did not know the diameter of it, when I tried it on, it made my eyes to appear so huge!!
Almost felt like my eyes doubled in size!!
It sure gives huge enlargement compare to the ones I've tried, so I was not disappointed by that at all
Considering the enlargement effect this lens gave, it didn't felt too much, I think it is because of the way the rim is designed


Overall, this lens was very satisfying choice for myself, and it actually became my daily lens for work!



Now that we have explored this crazy colorful lens, let's take a look at colorful wig I got from them!




As usual, using CHINA POST as shipping method, it took about 2 weeks for the wig to finally arrive
That is normal length of time it would take to receive a package from Asian Country






DESCRIPTION
Type: 100% Heat Resistant Fibre
Wig Color: Blue &  Pink
Wig Length: 70 cm
Price: $33.90 USD


Now this wig was quite interesting for me, I think because I have never owned long length wig with three different clip ons that needs to go on before!!
I personally picked this wig, just because I liked to color combination and I expected the wig to be come as one part, and I just need to tie them up in pigtails

I will be going into more details as we go on~



Very top center of the wig is tied with rubber band, that way they have the pointy top
However, it is not hair sprayed to make it stay straight up, so if you wishes to style your wig differently, only thing you need to do is take off the rubber band

I did that, and having rubber band tied up for quite some times did not alter the way the wig is supposed to look



Front part has very natural finishing for me when I looked at it
There wasn't any cutting necessary for the bang, since it wasn't too long to poke my eyes or anything like that
But it is still long enough and have lots of layers for you to style it in your own way



Inside netting is just basic yellow netting, which is commonly used for light colored wig









Now this wig comes with three different extensions that you can put on to make it appear longer
Two slightly smaller extensions to go on the sides, and One big extension to go on the back of the head to give more fuller appearance





Now considering how some colorful wigs can appear very fake, cause how shiny it can get,
even though there was slight shininess to it, it wasn't to the point where it looks like nylon wig
Despite how it looks, it actually has really soft texture, which is kind of hard to find from colorful wigs
I didn't had much struggle with tangles when I was brushing with my wig brush
(Many long wigs cause me trouble, when I'm brushing them)

So I really love the how soft this wig is!!



TEST SHOT




This wig was rather fun, because it was a slight challenging for me to put on the extensions
I was not used to using heavy weight extensions like this before on a wig, so I had to learn how to put it on, without making the base wig to fall off from my head

Other than that, I didn't had much trouble with tangles of keeping it away from sticking to my face, which has been a problem with some longer length wigs, so I really enjoyed it!!

I just have to figure out, how I can utilize this wig for some nice look, so please look forward to it
