dbeautyshop.com - your stop for cosplay costumes & awesome contacts. Get your Halloween Fix here.

Today - I am doing a review on a company called dbeautyshop.com.  This awesome company that is web based, has an array of different contacts and cosplay costumes for everyone.  

Are you looking for contacts or some really awesome costumes like Sailor Moon?  Then, this is the site for you.  It is a beautiful site - very easy to maneuver and outlined for ease of use.  

dbeautyshop.com sent me 2 pairs of contact lenses.  Both came just in time for Halloween. lol  One set is the magic lenses and are some really cool Spider Web contacts.  My eyes have been really irritated lately because of my allergies - so I am lucky to have my hubby as my guest to try them on and wear them for me. ;)  Here is a photo of the spider web ones.

These lenses are $39.90 and are really cool.  They look very entrancing and I thought that they were perfect for Halloween.  They are a 14mm diameter and have an 8.6 base curve.  My hubby Kevin says that they went on fairly easy and without much effort and because they are larger than normal colored contacts and actually feel like they sort of mold onto the eye.  Unlike regular prescribed contacts - these seem really comfortable, no hazing or glaze over the lens and vision is clear.  What I really liked about these, is that they were represented well by the photograph on the site and what we received was exactly as what was pictured on their site.  Very cool.

The 2nd pair we received are the Flame Hot Contact Lenses.  The cost point is the same - they are $39.90 a pair.  Though these look really cool - I was a little disappointed that they look much differently in person than they did on the website.  They are really cool - but it did not have the same effect as represented on the site.  Nonetheless, these are really cool looking and definitely a great choice for Halloween as well.  Just like the other - it has a 14mm diameter and an 8.6 base curve.  My hubby mentioned the same similarities in this pair as with the other and although not exactly as pictured on the site - still very cool. ;)

Shipping for dbeautyshop was very quick.  The package was nicely packaged in a bubble mailer and wrapped in bubble wrap.  The shipping took about a week and considering it came from Malaysia - that is totally quick.  Each contact lens ordered will also include a free animal case - which is a great because many companies do not always include lens cases with their contacts - that way - you don't have to go out and buy any, you will have them ready.

What I like about dbeautyshop is that they offer lenses from a variety of companies.  Call me biased - but I am a huge fan of Geo Medical lenses and I'm glad that they give you an option to select lenses from a company/brand you are comfortable with.  Not to mention - they have a variety of contacts, colors and awesome designs.

Thank you dbeautyshop.com for sending me these products for review.  Please go and check them out and tell them that Honey aka Destne146 sent you. ;)

Creative Professional Handmade Tortoise Comb - Product Review

I had the privilege to receive a Handmade Tortoise wide tooth comb (#C5W) from It’s a Glam Thing – on behalf of Creative Professional Hair Tools (http://www.creativehairtools.com) 

Per the Creative Hair Tools website, each of their handmade combs are sawed from a single sheet of high quality Italian produced cellulos (cotton) acetate, with its teeth gently rounded. There are no burrs that can snag and break hair, causing split ends. Ordinary combs are molded from inferior plastic and have burrs and jagged seams between the teeth that break and damage hair, making it dull and lifeless.  The websites claim nails it right on the money… for I have been using this specific comb for about a month now and it is my number one choice of combs to use on my hair.

Those of you that have been following me on youtube or twitter – know that I have chosen to start using my hair in its natural form – wearing it down and curly without continuously flat ironing/straightening it.  This comb has been essential in my new hair style… allowing me to use my hair curly without worrying too much that my hair will frizz just from combing my hair.  The comb fits perfectly in my hand… without causing added pressure and added strain on my wrist while combing through my hair.  This is very important to me… because of my carpal tunnel, many brushes and heavier combs add discomfort to my wrists while combing my long hair.  I have been able to comb through my very kinky curly hair without difficulty or pulling.  You can purchase these combs as well as view & purchase a selection of many others by visiting http://www.creativehairtools.com  This Handmade Tortoise Comb retails on their site for $11.10 which is a reasonable price tag for such an awesome product.  I honestly think that in order to achieve awesome results – you need to have the right tools… and this definitely should be a part of your hair tool collection. 
If you have curly hair like me, you will surely find it useful.
