Good days people! I finally got time to update my blog /o/
I will be review my next wig, it's Ayase Eli from Don't sleep wig. It's a shop from taobao, so if you want to buy it you need a third party agent (or you relatives within Mainland China, cmiiw).
Yo! I'm back! I'm going to post about my almost finished post about my newest cosplay~
What? not like you've promised to us!
Okay okay. I've been working for my promised review, since a month ago. But I'm so driven by my mood so forgive me for not fulfilling my promise. But I promised, I will!
My newest (almost) completed cosplay is this
CUTE DESHOU?!?!?!
I kinda obsessed with her lately, and idk Love Live costume is so cute and fluffy and lovely. I want to cos them all! Honoka is my fav character of all but honestly I love all μ's character (except nico, I have my personal grudge against her lol).
on to the cosplay!
In this picture I wrongly put the ribbon. I should put it in front of the hairband lol. I use a brand new wig, different than I ever reviewed. It's from AOI, and kinda expensive from all other wig I've ever bought ^^;
I didn't sew the costume, I also bought it from taobao. Quick review, the fabric is not really smooth and kinda see-trough. But you won't notice it from picture, so I guess it's ok. It has nice decent detail for a cheap costume. I already got more that I paid, so I'm satisfied (ノ◕ヮ◕)ノ*:・゚✧
All left for this cosplay is a nice black wedges sandal and a pair of laced socks. I still struggling to find nice lace for my socks tho...
Enough chit chat! Time for spam picture!
selfie is a must
My friend took this photo when someone asked me to pose. I have a serious problem for posing. I still can't pose and portray the character correctly T^T
chubby cheek!
Aaaaanyway to make this picspam a little more important, I use different eye makeup when costesting and going to event. Which is better for cosplaying honoka?
Costest
Kinda full makeup, a little more blush, and complete package of eyelash (upper and lower lol)
Event
Just eyeliner and eyeshadow to sculpt my eye. I didn't use any eyelash because I didn't bring any (shame on me!) so I changed the eye makeup immediately T^T
Any input for my cosplay (and makeup) is highly appreciated!
Hello! Good day people! Today I'm going to review one of my wig from Lucaille shop at taobao.
Lucaille is pretty known in my country as a shop from taobao which has vast selection of wig. Like, seriously! They had some non-mainstream wig like this wig. And Lucaille is known for the first one adding wig from latest anime. As per this post released, there are some of character from Fall 2014 season, just two episode airing ad they already got the wig. Lucaille is the hero!
Lucaille's taobao link can be found here. BUT! They had English site too, which can be found here. The price is almost the same, but I never bought from their English site. It's more convenient for me to buy from taobao site.
The wig I got is for a character named Shimada Mayu from Wake Up, Girls! anime. Did you guys ever watching it?
The photo stock is fine. I love the color. But when it came, It turns out the wig is WAAAY too lighter.
I don't know if it because lighting or anything but I hate the color :( Today, I already recolor it until I got the color I want.
Here's the current condition of wig
The style is perfectly fine for me. I don't have to restyle it again. Even the bangs is perfect for me. Yay!
Lucaille wig had this tag behind the wig, to ensure that you got Lucaille wig. So if you buy secondhand wig and claimed it's lucaille, make sure you checked this first!
The wig is kinda reflective but I think it won't be a big problem for outside shoot/con. It won't really seen unless you do flashed it directly in short distance.
I have to state not all Lucaille is this reflective. I used to own Kousaka Honoka wig and it's not reflective at all. So I guess it depends on the wig itself.
The wig has perfect thickness for me. And the net is not really easy to get seen.
You can see the fiber has purple stands, idk why. It doesn't really show on photo but irl they stands out :( Well I can tolerate it tho, because it blends in photo lol
One of the downside of this is there's so much falls out. What I mean is even if you comb it with hands, there is still fiber loss. It's not much, maybe just one or two, but still worrying me. If you comb it with comb, it took more fiber gaaah :( Thankfully it doesn't tangle much, so I can hand-comb it everytime I wear it.
So! My verdict for this wig
Color: 1/5
Thickness: 5/5
Style: 5/5
Shininess: 3/5
I got this wig from my own online shop (hohho~)
Cosplay Wig Specialist \o/
(Ship within Indonesia only sorry)
Okay then! Thank you for reading~ have a nice day!
Today I'm going to review a wig, from ghostcos. Have you heard about it? For a cosplayer, I think it's a common brand. Ghostcos is a brand from Taobao shopping website. If you wish to browse for yourself, here's the link.
This is the wig I bought
Honoka Kousaka wig!
I'm into LoveLive in recent time so I want to cos as this cute leader <3 This is the wig when come
I already cut the clip on at that point. Because logically, side tail must be shorter than real hair right? LOL. As you can see, the color is a little bit miss. The color stock is more orange, what I got is more to brown. Maybe the stock photo is too edited.
The style is okay, Got exactly same like stock photo. Nice styling actually, pretty much look like Honoka except the side tail haha
I must say.. the fiber for this wig is so reflective, making this wig so shiny for my tolerance. It looks cheap and fake :( In the first photo, I took it with torch setting. I don't know about sunshine lighting to the wig because I never wear it to any event for now.
The wig itself it's pretty thick. I don't have to worry if my movement makes the lace inside seen. I can make side tail and it's pretty solid.
This wig doesn't tangle at all, I can dance and jump all day with no worry. Err okay maybe you have to comb it if you lay on grass for photoshoot haha
SO! My verdict for this wig!
Color: 3/5
Thickness: 5/5
Style: 5/5
Shininess: 1/5
Disclaimer:
This is my very subjective opinion. This review doesn't mean same for every pre-styled wig from Ghostcos.
Hello guys! I'm back with more post huhu I'm so busy with final task, still long way to go but I have to keep fighting!!
Last month, 24-25 Mau 2014, I attend Ennichisai! It's annual Japanese Festival in my city. The venue is so big actually, but since there's a lot of people coming it's already hard to walk :( I met a lot of people there, and eat many food x)) I feel so happy!
They had this mikoshi (isn't it? I forgot) and carry it around the venue. They scream yossha! yossha!! to give encouragement and spirit to carry it around the venue. Jakarta is so hot at that time so I'm amazed they didn't get dehydrated or something when carrying it.
Selfie time!
They got a lot of food stalls too! I didn't capture a lot of picture of food because I forgot >_< It's so oiishi (tr: delicious) so I eat them immediately! lol I ate curry and kakiigori. Actually I ate two kakiigori in a day since it's so hot outside >_<
Selfie time!
With Rakuten standee
It's Lawson mascot!
I met my friend! lol no me
I cosplayed at second day. As Shimada mayu from Wake Up Girls.
