What's on my table? Eyelashes

Beauty lashes ♡

When I got these pretty eyelashes, I didn't have any idea how they stick on the skin. Yes, literally zero knowledge about falsies. I tried using the glue included but it was a fail. u_u

So I bought a special glue in a boutique, it was quite expensive but the cute little bottle convinced me. Tried, and still... failed! Haha, then I ask my mom how. She said I have to wait around 5 minutes for the glue to settle first before putting that prettiest little thing on the lids. And it worked! Yeah, finally~

 Just look at how pretty falsies are, they totally enhance your eyes! Here's a closer look:

I used that for my shoot in this blog entry.

I used this one for Little Red Riding Hood and Blue Bird entries:

Let's take a closer look:

I haven't used the net lashes in my shoots yet, but here's a sample:

And of course, the last would be my most favorite falsies~~

This is definitely my favorite! Dramatic eyes~ I'll be using it for my next shoot! Yay! So excited!

Btw, I was also wearing GEO Contact lens in brown.

For those who want to try false eyelashes, here are steps:

1. Trim the false eyelashes first to your desired length.

2. Apply glue on the false eyelashes and wait for about 5-10 minutes.

3. Curl your real eyelashes.

4. Take false eyelash and press on to your eyelid.

5. Put on some makeup and liquid eyeliner for touch up.

6. Apply mascara (this is optional).

Well, better not, so you could still use the lashes next time.

7. There! You're all set! Hello bright eyes~

Little Red Riding Hood

My overused hoodie from Mango! Haha it’s raining hard nowadays. The Rienda ponytail was a Japanese Magazine freebie~

And the shoes are so lovely~

Yesterday I was so happy to find a porcelain doll on a thrift shop near our house ^^

It’s a Christmas Special Edition 1991 doll named Karen (but I changed it to Maisie), she has a short blonde hair and is wearing a red cape with hood. Still in a box and in very good condition. Haha I'm so lucky~

Advance Happy Christmas!! XD

Going back in time: Victorian Dolls

Porcelain dolls continue to be a popular collector's item. Collecting them is a charming hobby and gives me an opportunity to have beautiful stuff at home. Until now, I still love the looks of these collectible beautiful porcelain dolls. Here they are:

For some, porcelain dolls could be one of the scariest collection. For me, they are precious and I'm willing to spend time hunting for the perfect dolls. At the age of 8, I got my 1st porcelain doll from my Ninang and I named her Jesse:

Yes, looks like she's still in good condition but her right foot is already cracked. Sadly, it was shipped here in the Philippines with damage but still, she's my most favorite doll. And priceless. At that time, I didn't know how to take care of her that I threw the box together with her passport and authenticity card. Sad. Another shot of Jesse:

Stored in a glass cabinet for almost 12 years, my problem now is how to restore her eyes and curls. She suffered from insect damage. When I have time I'll take her to a Antique Doll Repair House.

Here's Peachie, the doll that I got from my sister as a present for having good grades at school when I was still studying:

There is nothing quite like a Victorian porcelain doll to really show off a beautiful outfit! She looks so antique and I love it! More Victorian dolls:

Lucida

Melissa:

Isn't she photogenic? She's about 22" tall. I bought her a week before pay day cos my sister said it will be gone from the store a week after XD And to my uber excitement with my 1st huge doll, I lost my phone on our way home u_u

My boyfriend also bought one for me ♡

Agatha

My other sister also bought a 22" doll for me as a sign of support :D
So victorian and lovely in red.

Miu Miu

Couples sitting in a basket I got for only $14! Kiss ♡ Kiss!

The richest and most maldita doll, Ashley - the murderer at night.

The family's getting bigger, they need a maid! hahaha! Here's Becky:

The 2 foreigner bisque dolls in boxes, Charlotte and Coline:

I also got life size 26" baby dolls in mint condition from a collector: Alice and Caroline

Planning to buy baby clothes for them. I so love their smooth skin and articulated bodies. Right now, I am looking for a huge glass cabinet for dust and dirt prevention. If you know where to find affordable made to order cabinets, please message me. Thank you!

Actually it is a good investment in the future but I don't have any plans of selling them. Someday, I'll pass it to my future daughter. Maybe ;p
