PRINTL

PRINTL was kind enough to give me a one-month subscription to their service! They print your top 10 Instagram pictures every month in the shape of a Polaroid print, and mail them to you.


I've always loved the shape of the classic Polaroid pictures. I actually have three Polaroid cameras of my own, but since they're no longer made anymore, the film can get pretty pricey. The only actual polaroid prints I have were the ones they took of me at my dentist's office for being in the 'Cavity-Free Club' in elementary school. 



I found PRINTL's website easy to sign up for. You just sign into your Instagram account from their website and it will automatically pick out your top photos at the end of each month. My photos came to me in Canada about 20 days after April ended.



 The service was easy to use and it's so cool to see prints of my photos, but I think that this is not personally something I would use long-term. Considering I only post around 4 photos per month, they printed the last 10 photos off of my Instagram. Maybe someone who posts a ton of photos would find the service more fun or useful. There is also no option to choose the photos you want printed. Regardless, I think my pictures look great and will look awesome as a clothespin banner in my room!!



You can use the promo code '@chanel' and have a 50% off discount code for the first month!! That makes it only 5 bucks.

Pinky Paradise Lenses

I received these incredible circle lenses c/o Pinky Paradise recently!! I've never worn any sort of contacts before, so I was pretty excited to try them out.


I received two pairs of circle lenses and each of them came with a cute case. I purchased a basic multi-purpose solution from a drugstore to properly sanitize the lenses with.



The left pair is the G&G Xxtra Larger Hyper Size Circle Black and the right pair is GEO Ultra CK 105. 




The above image shows how my eyes normally look, and the images below shows how the lenses look while on. Each pair has a different type of blending to it, but since my natural irises are such a deep brown, they both look the same on me. Someone with a lighter iris would have a different result.









You can see how goofy it looks when I just have one of them in.





I'm really loving how they look on me. They make my eyes look huge, dark and deep in a naturally demonic way that suits me well. I found both pairs very comfortable to wear too! they don't obstruct my eyesight in any way.
