got my two wonderful items from best beauty 2008, a fantastic ebay store which sells a lot of japanese and korean beauty products! the shipping was great and took exactly 5 business days to ship from hong kong to australia (usually i wait a minimum of two weeks). i'll be reviewing the eyelid tape!
1. packaging: 6/10
i mean, it was okay. picture was cute -- but a bitch to open! had to cut into the very thick plastic with scissors, and it took a while.
2. instructions: 10/10
although i can barely read japanese, the instructions were very clear, diagrams and all. it came witha set of instructions on the back, and a booklet inside.
3. tweezers: 6/10
don't like them, simply because they're a little on the sharper side, and they're too wide to pick up the tape as instructed -- i have to do one side by hand all the time.
onto the tape itself!
these work. as long as your eyelid isn't oily, these will stick, and stick well. they didn't call it extra for a reason! even with makeup remover, i still had to peel them off by hand. meaning be VERY CAREFUL and do not tear off, you can damage your eyelid.
5. enlargement: 7/10
very thin, so if you're looking for minimum enlargement, these are perfect. if not, look elsewhere as they are too think to create a large crease.
LOL. please ignore my eyebags ): shitty week. while these might not be as discreet as glue, these are THE best tapes i have used for subtlety. you almost can't tell. i suspect it has a lot to do with it being double-sided.
7. comfort: 7/10
over time, the corners may become a bit unsticky if your skin is oil-prone. that means you might experience the slight discomfort of something kind of sharp poking at you. so keep blotting paper nearby if it's a hot day!
total: 8/10
