ScleraXL : Phantasee Colossus (Rinnegan) 22mm Sclera Lenses Review

Hello everyone!! Today, I am super honored and hyped about reviewing these gorgeous sclera lenses sponsored by  ScleraXL. Not only did my wish of trying sclera lenses get granted but my DREAM of owning the RINNEGAN also came true. (❁´▽`❁)*✲゚* These sclera lenses are called Colossus and you can get it from their site.

( Also, Please Buy Me Coffee if you want ❤ )

 For those of you who are new to them, ScleraXL is a company based in the Netherlands that SPECIALIZES in SCLERA LENSES. Sclera lenses are different from your regular lenses. They are extremely large lenses that cover the entire white part of your eyes.These lenses could cause discomfort or irritation to inexperienced users. Other companies who sell scleras on the sidelines probably can't answer all of your questions regarding them. That is why, I recommend getting your pair from ScleraXL because they are professionals and they could answer all of your questions!





 Here are it's details:



Price: $89 (FREE SHIPPING)
Brand: Phantasee 
Origin: South Korea
Diameter: 22 mm
Base Curve: 11 mm
Water Content: 45% water, 55% terpolymer in sterile saline solution
Life Span: Lasts for up to 1 year with proper care and occasional use
Prescription:  plano (zero power)
FDA approved, ISO 9001 quality
Package : 1 Pair of Sclera Lenses (2 pcs) + FREE Sclera Lens Case


ScleraXL was VERY QUICK with their replies. I really didn't have to wait long to receive a reply from them and sometimes, they reply to my inquiries just minutes after I messaged them. Other companies take hours or even days to reply so if you're the type to ask a lot of questions about your order, then this company is for you!


ScleraXL ships your order on the same day of your payment as long as you ordered before 7 PM CET (1 PM EST). My order came inside a thin box with labels saying fragile. Their shipping is free and they take approximately the days listed below to arrive to their respective countries: 

US & Canada = 6-9 business days
Western Europe = 2-3 business days
UK = 2-4 business days
Southern Europe & Scandinavia = 3-5 business days
Brazil = 3-6 weeks
Worldwide = 6-10 days


Inside the box, you can see that layers of bubble wrap were placed inside it. The lenses were put in a small vertical box that could fit 1 pair of lens vials. The free lens case was enclosed in plastic and is bigger than most lens cases. This is because it is designed to fit sclera lenses that are 6-8 mm bigger than most contact lenses. 




The sclera lenses came in the usual vial that most contact lenses come with. It contains all information of the lenses as well as its expiry date if you aren't planing on opening it for a while. The vial is exactly the same height and width with other lenses' vials but you can see that the sclera lenses were a bit cramped inside due to its enormous size.





This is how the lenses look outside of the vial. The left is how the back part (the one that shows) look like and the right is how it looks from inside or when inverted. The lenses are thicker, harder and form a much bigger curve than most lenses. Since it prevents adequate oxygen from entering your eyes, it is suggested that you should only wear sclera lenses for 4-6 hours. 


Aren't these lenses perfect for Rinnegan holders?


( 22mm Sclera Lenses vs 17mm mini scleras , 15mm dolly lenses & 14mm normal lenses )

As I said, these lenses are much more bigger than any other contact lenses. You can see the difference between other sizes of contact lenses in the picture above. 




In the picture above, we can see how much bigger the curve sclera lenses form compared to normal lenses. Almost half of the entire lenses is actually pushed to the inner corners of your eyes.




Ratings: 

Color and Design: (8/5) ★+
As a huuge fan of Naruto, I idolized (and had a crush on) Nagato and his Deva Path of Pain. I was obsessed with the Rinnegan and wanted to have one someday. These lenses are like a dream come true! The size ,coverage and rings are perfect eventhough the color is a bit darker than the Rinnegan (blame the manufacturers for that!)

Enlargement: (5/5)  
These lenses almost occupy the entire sclera or white part of your eyes and make them look filled and enlarged. Let's just say they're about 2 cm away on both sides from filling the entire eye BUT WE WOULDN'T WANT THAT! The lenses are hard enough to insert and took me a good few minutes of trying and failing! Sometimes, my eyes end up being red since I take TOO LONG to insert them because I'm inexperienced. 

Visibility of Effect: (5/5) 
The lenses were very clear and visible both up close and from afar. The rings are very visible and the coverage is just enough to make it seem like your entire eyes were purple.   

Comfort: (3/5) 

I was honestly expecting to be in so much pain that I would cry for long minutes BUT it actually didn't feel that bad. I mean, it is uncomfortable and it stings a lot but it was just at the same level of pain as with other lenses. It's a bit harder to open your eyes wider with these lenses. My eyes also sometimes feel dry and then I'll just drop a few solution on the sides and let the solution seep in. 

Anyway as Nagato said, KNOW PAIN!



Overall: (5/5) 
The initial pain from inserting it is inevitable and it would take some time to get used to wearing sclera lenses.However, once you get the hang of it, the pain will dull out and then subside. You'd even feel as if you've just achieved something amazing by enduring the pain. And when you remove it, your eyes will feel strange from being "empty" again but there is still the feeling of relief.

Here are it's details:

Some of you may be familiar with similar subscription boxes due to the increasing popularity these days. Most boxes you've hear of , mostly contain food, snacks, toys and may more. Kawaii Box is different because it contains random yet useful kawaii items. 


The Kawaii Box I received received damaged because of my country's post team. The box was partly opened but at least the post people took the initiative to wrap it in plastic (since it was their fault anyway). I'm jealous of the countries with better posts because they will receive this in perfect condition and see it's beauty. ಥ_ಥ 
If you want to subscribe to them, here's a brief summary of their plans. 


The contents of the box was wrapped in thin paper with Kawaii Box's logo. On top of it, a super cute card with their logo and the words " THANK YOU" was written.


On the back of the "thank you" card, is the catalog and contents of their June 2016 Box as well as their mascot saying "stay cute all summer".


There were also various cards and pamphlets in the box. One of them gives you a chance of winning a Mega Box worth over $100 by simply tagging your post with the hashtag #KawaiiBox on their social media accounts. 


The first part of the items are as follows :

Kabaya Panda Cookies -> Kawaii Animals Pouch -> Summer Fruits Stickers
(Blue) Harajuku Bow Haipin -> Fresh Fan Juice -> Pink Pom Pom Pen 

(The Panda Cookies were so delicious! I ate its entire content in minutes.) 


The second part of the items are as follows: 

Ice Cream Charm -> Watermelon Purse ->Baby Elephant Mini Plush 
Korean Deco Glitter Set -> Kawaii Animals Pocket Mirror ->Plastic Bear Bag Charm


Everything from Kawaii Box is really fun and cute! I could use everything inside it for school even though the theme is summer xD . Summer ended 2 months ago for me... 


Now for the fun and exciting part! :D 
Kawaii Box and I have teamed up to make this giveaway possible! Enter below for a chance to win your very own kawaii box!
E N D E D!!

I chose the pink dress because I seriously love pastel pink and it looks the cutest. The dress came in a plastic and Wig-Supplier gave a free badge with the logo of their other store(?), Rolecosplay. 


I was so amazed when I took the dress out! It was so beautiful and elegant. The dress was exactly like the stock photo and even better in real life. 


There were 3 ribbons total, 2 in the front and 1 at the back. All the ribbons are actually removable because they are attached to a fancy looking clip that is strong enough to hold it for long. The back of the dress is garterized and have back laces to tighten it 


The skirt part 2 layers of ruffles and then a lace on its end. It is also adorned with many small dark pink ribbons. The ribbons have a tiny floral-like laces surrounding its ends. These designs are what made the dress prettier. 


Ratings: 

Design: 5/5 ★★★★★
 Hands down, this is one of the cutest lolita dresses they sell. The design is sooo cute! I love how it's filled with so many frills , ruffles and laces and how there are 4 colors for it.

Quality: 5 /5 ★★★
I was actually surprised when the quality was just AMAZING!! Every pattern of lace, frills and ruffles were well sewn. It is obviously durable and will last for a very long time. 

Comfort: 5 /5 ★★★★
The dress feels really nice and comfortable. I could wear this for long hours and not feel awkward at all.

Price: 5 /5 ★★★★★
The dress is worth every dollar. It's one of those things that are way cheaper than others ut also way better. Shipping was also very quick! I wasn't even ready when it arrived xD. 


Overall: 5/5 ★★★★
I've always secretly wanted a lolita dress and this is incredible for a first time! At first I was hesitant to even try one because I'm a very plain person and it might not suit me. The only times I've also worn a dress were also few and the most I've done is wear cosplay costumes. But in the end, I had so much fun wearing it. Please try it out for yourselves if you want, you wont regret it!

Hi everyone! Today, I am very excited to review a beauuuutiful wig from Wig-Supplier / L-Email Wigs . This is their 60cm long-dark turquoise wig that I will be using for my Neliel Tu Odelschwanck (Nel from Bleach) and Michiru Kaioh (Sailor Neptune from Sailor Moon) cosplays.

Shipping took around 4 weeks and the parcel arrived in a plastic pouch with their logo and motto,  "Everyone can cosplay". 


The wig was placed inside a ziplock bag and came with a free wig cap (the black one). 


Inside it, you can see that the wig was placed in a net to avoid too much tangles and fraying. The area where you put your head also came with a paper to avoid getting the shape flatted.



This is how the wig looks like outside the bag. The right is in normal lighting and the left is when subjected to flash. As you can see, the color is just a little bit darker and duller than the product picture but that doesn't make it bad.


The curls are so soft, beautiful and full. There are a bit of hairs that form a mess but it doesn't tangle much. The wig also feels incredibly nice to touch. 


The scalp or top of the wig is strongly sewn together and not glued. This makes this durable and easier to manage. The wig has a beige lace cap and a tag with it's codes. 


Ratings: 

Color: (4/5) 
The color is a bit darker and less shiny in real life. However, the color on the stock photo can be achieved by maximizing your brightness in your pictures. 

Shine: (5/5) ★ 
The wig is not that shiny. It has the right amount of shine that prevents it from looking too cheap and irritating or too dull and boring. It also helps that you can slightly change the color by adjusting your brightness. 

Price: (6/5) ★+
Can you believe that a wig as beautiful as this is only $11.80!!?? All of Wig-Supplier / L-Email 's wigs are soooo much more affordable than most of the online stores. They have lot's of colors, styles, lengths and even character specific wigs. Even their dreamy lace front wigs are so much cheaper than other stores but are of limited designs.

Texture: (5/5) 
. The wig is super smooth, nice to touch and very manageable. You can easily run your fingers through their wigs ad the scalp is very neat and thick. 

Overall: (5/5) 
I am extremely pleased with the quality of their wigs! I guarantee that your money will not be in waste because it's worth it. I really recommend buying from them. I know they sell costumes and lace front wigs too so it's like a 1-stop shop for your cosplay needs.
