Update and Name change!

Hi everyone! Sorry for not being around much these days. I recently got a new job so i've been kind busy. Luckily, though, this means i'll be able to buy more stuff to review and show to you guys! c: I promise i'll be more active when i get more things. I'm going to try to post random stuff just to keep this baby alive.

I've also changed my Internet name from Marzipan Meow to Atomic Rae. I like it better and it has part of my real name in it, so i feel like it's being truer to myself for you guys. c:

Anyway, i have to go get ready for work now. See you babies, soon!

~ Love,  Rae

Review: Clinique High Impact Extreme Volume Mascara

Hi sweeties! Today i'll be reviewing four makeup products that i use often. I'm starting with Clinique's High Impact Extreme Volume Mascara!

 I apologize in advance for the really poopy photos. The lighting in this room is awful in the evening and i just now found time to review.

here's the company's photo.

here's my awful photos. xD

no mascara. 

with mascara.

Let's begin! Here is the link to the product website.

Price: ♥♡♡♡♡

It cost $19.50 plus shipping or tax if you buy it from a store. Luckily, i got it as a gift but unfortunately for me, $20 for mascara just hurts my wallet way too much. I give one out of five hearts.

Packaging: ♥♥♥♥♡

I really like the tube. It's a sleek silver and it's very shiny. I love shiny things. x3 The letters are in white, so they're kind of hard to read against the shiny silver. It would better if they would've put it in a different color. The wand and the tube are both very chunky, which i like in mascara packaging. The wand's bristles are about average size and in the classic shape.

Product Quality: ♥♥♥♥♡

I LOVE this stuff! It makes my eyelashes so big and pretty! The only problem i have with it the mascara is very messy. It gets all over you if you're not careful. Other than that, this mascara is perfect if you want bigger, fuller lashes.


Overall: ♥♥♥♥♥

I give it five hearts! This mascara makes me very happy and one i start to make more money, i will more than likely switch to make it my main mascara. 

Love,

Marzipan♥

Review: Le Kair Cholesterol Conditioning Cream

Hi sweeties! Today, i'll be reviewing Le Kair Cholesterol Plus Strengthening & Conditioning Cream. I've been using this product for about two years on and off but i've been using it nonstop for six months. I love it!

Price: ♥♥♥♥♥ 

A jar of costs $2.00, including tax. Such a great price!

Packaging: ♥♡♡♡♡

It's a very mediocre packaging but the letters a big and pretty. I do like the packaging they used to have a lot more than the newer version. 

Product Quality: ♥♥♥♥♡

This stuff is AMAZING! It makes my hair soo soft and easy to detangle. It also makes it easier to style. I've noticed since using it almost everyday for the past 6 months, my hair has been healthier and has started growing faster. I love the color of it! The only real problems i have with the product is that it feels like silly putty and it smells like hotel conditioner. However, those problems are not so big that i would stop using the product.

Overall: ♥♥♥♥♥

I give the product five stars! I'm very glad i started using this product and will continue to use it for many more months. I would definitely recommend it to as friend who has damaged hair or just wants softer, more manageable hair. It is one of my favorite hair care products i've ever used.

Love,

Marzipan♥

Review: Milanno Wig

For Christmas, my fiancé and I bought each other wigs! We got on Milanoo.com December 23rd and sent in our order exactly at midnight. 
We finally got our wigs... 3 weeks later. Now, i understand it was Christmas when we ordered and there was a 2 day snow delay for FedEx in my state when the package was supposed to arrive. I get that. However, we ordered the express shipping and it took much longer to arrive than what we paid for. When our package finally got to us, i so excited i didn't even care about the late arrival. I was just happy to get my wig. We rushed to our bedroom and violently tour open our package. We were like little kids full of excitement to get our late Christmas gifts.

 Only... it was was package full of jackets and 2 shirts in the package, not the wigs. To make matters worse, It was for a guy in Mexico, so you know they didn't bother checking the package before slapping the shipping label on there.  ;___; I started crying and Blayne sat in angry silence with his arm around me. (i was pregnant at the time, if you're wondering about the crying. xD) I got online the next day and complained to Milanoo. They got back to me the day after and we worked out the problem. Apparently FedEx caused the shipping error.

We got the keep the jackets and the finally sent us our wigs. phew! I'll be doing a review on my wig today.

I ordered the Pink 80cm Volcaloid Lika Nylon Cosplay wig. Here the link to the website: Wig link

product picture.

Picture on the model.

Picture on me.

As you can see, it wasn't exactly like on the website. I still love it, though. c:

More pictures! 

Price: ♥♥♥♥♥ 

We payed $24 plus $15 shipping and handling for it.

Packaging: ♥♡♡♡♡

It came in a a big FedEx page with 2 smalled Milanoo bags which contained with wigs. The reasons this got a heart is because they sent us two very cute Milanoo buttons. :3 I'm a sucker for adorable freebes!

Product Quality: ♥♥♥♡♡

After seeing the price and the fact is made of nylon, it should go without saying that is a generally low quality wig. The wig is very shiny in direct lighting and it tangled very easily. It feels kind of like oily plastic and the bags never want to go on the side they're supposed to. Which is why i where it with a hair accessory to keep it in place.

Shipping: ♡♡♡♡♡

If you read the story above, you know why this has no heart. ;___; After reading other reviews, i discovered this happens a lot with Milanoo customers. They suck with shipping. 

Customer Service: ♥♥♥♥♥ 

They were very kind when i explained there error and not only gave me a bunch of options for them to correct it, but they corrected the error quickly. I was actually surprised because i didn't expect it to go this smoothly. I'm very satisfied with their customer service.

Overall: ♥♥♥♡♡

I give Milanoo three out of four stars. Although there was a shipping error and the wig wasn't 100% like the picture, i'm still very satisfied with the product and i'll possibly shop there again.

Love,

Marzipan♥

Hair Roller Results + Garnier Fructis Curl Construct Mousse review (pic heavy)

This morning, i took my hair down and i was so satisfied with  the results! My hair wasn't totally curl, it was wavy as most. Which is exactly what i was hoping for. c: 

Here are the results:

I used Garnier Fructis Cult Construct Mousse extra strong when i rolled my hair. I've used mousse before, but not by Garnier. 

Price: ♥♥♥♥♥ 

It's super adorable! I got it a Dollar General for $3.56

Packaging: ♥♥♥♥♥

It comes in a shiny, tall, neon green can and the words are in attractive fonts and color. Every appealing to the brain. The nozzle on the top makes it really easy to get the mousse out of the can, plus it matches the can. 

Product Quality: ♥♥♥♡♡

It was extremely sticky when i was applying it, stickier than some of the other one's i've used. It actually held really well until i want outside. Most of my hair fell flat, expect the places where i applied it the most. But was 7 am when i went outside and the humidity is already at 74%. I probably didn't apply enough product for it to outlast the humidity for today. I'm also not too found of the small. Usually Garnier's products smell better.

Overall: ♥♥♥♥♡

I really like this product and i'll continue to use it. I would recommend this product to a friend. It's defiantly great for only costing about $4.

Love,

Marzipan
