LunatiCK Cosmetic Labs review



Hello all!

I am very excited to show you 3 absolutely fabulous products from LunatiCK Cosmetic Labs today.
Their products are formulated in the USA. All cosmetics are 100% Vegan, Talc Free & Cruelty Free, which is absolutely great! As stated on their website -   
"LunatiCK Cosmetic Labs specializes in all aspects of horror, beauty, special effects makeup. LunatiCK Cosmetic Labs is for everyone from beautiful blushing brides to beautiful bloody brides of Frankenstein."


- Contour palette -

This multipurpose palette contains cool, rose & nude hues colors ranging from light to dark. Infused with ultra fine silica powder leaves you with HD photo ready finish, which is actually true! After I used it for a couple of photoshoots, I noticed that my face looks flawless on photos! 



Packaging is adorable, I literally drool over all packaging designs LunatiCK Cosmetic Labs' products have. On the back side you have listed ingredients, and described shades by numbers.


- Ingredients -

So, you have total of 12 shades, which you can group into grey tones, blushes, and natural (brown) tones. Grey shades are great for super pale skin (all of you Goths, vampires and creatures of the night ;) ), and brown shades are perfect for normal and darker skin, witchy looks, or for other creatures connected with supernatural forces.

The best thing about this palette is that is multipurpose, so you can use it not only to contour and highlight, but also as blush and eyeshadow.


- Swatches -


1 White Semi sheer white matte
2 Light Grey Semi sheer light grey matte
3 Dark Grey Dark grey matte
4 Dark Grey Taupe Dark grey brown matte


5 Light PinkLight peachy pink matte
6 Bright Pink Bright warm pink matte
7 Pink Taupe - Midtone pink taupe matte
8 Deep PinkDeep warm terracotta pink matte


9 Light CreamLight creamy beige with yellow undertone matte 
10 Light Cool BrownLight cool brown matte
11  Light Warm BrownLight warm brown matte
12 Deep Cool BrownDeep cool brown matte


Overall, I am extremely satisfied with this palette! It is very well pigmented, it gives you perfect HD photo finish, it's texture is amazing, and it has shades for light and darker skin tones, not to mention the multipurpose aspect. The pans in this palette are also huge (4 grams / 1.7 oz of product).

To use darker shades as contour, you would actually need very light hand, so for me those will work as eyeshadows. In my opinion light grey tone should be either more pigmented or a little darker. You can also use darker shades to fill your eyebrows. So, all in all ★★★★★!



- Supernatural palette -

Supernatural comes in coffin palettes with Ouija board on the outside. Ingredients and shades are listed on the back of the package. Inside the palette is a bat-shaped mirror, perfectly sized to apply your makeup, and 5 shades of neutral eyeshadow tones.

Net Wt: 1.5gx5e0.26oz


Supernatural palette features the shades Invocation, MythSpookReincarnation, and Ghoulight.
The best thing is that the eyeshadows are highly pigmented and easy to blend.


- Swatches -


1 Invocation - silky, pigmented pinky-taupe
2 Myth - lilac-y pink with a reddish duochrome sheen
3 Spook - dark burgundy with a purple undertone 
4 Reincarnation - a mauve-taupe
5 Ghoulight - medium, reddish-brown with a pink duochrome sheen


These eyeshadows are absolutely perfect! I am not a big fan of neutral tones, but this palette made me fall in love with them! These are great for witchy/occult/faded looks, and I totally see 'supernatural' through these shades. The texture is silky, the colors are easy to work with, and although quite red overall, Supernatural is among cooler palettes. My favorite for now are first three shades- Invocation, Myth and Spook. 



- Calabaza lipstick -

LunatiCK Cosmetic Labs lipsticks have bullet shape packaging, which is absolutely awesome! Calabaza is described as roasted pumpkin orange, but in my case it looks more red than orange. It should also compliment all skin colors.



- Ingredients -

Ingredients: Ricinus Communis (Castor) Seed Oil, Helianthus Annuus (Sunflower) Seed Oil, Octyldodecanol, Euphorbia Cerifera (Candelilla) Wax, Hydrogenated Soybean Oil, Copernicia Cerifera (Carnauba) Wax, Ozokerite, Polymethylsilsesquioxane, Theobroma Cacao (Cocoa) Seed Butter, Hydrogenated Olive Oil, Hydrogenated Jojoba Oil, Tocopheryl Acetate, Glycine Soja (Soybean) Sterols, Sodium Saccharin, Flavor (Aroma), Phenoxyethanol. May Contain [+/-] Blue 1 Lake (CI 42090), Red 7 Lake (CI 15850), Red 28 Lake (CI 45410), Red 40 Lake (CI 16035), Manganese Violet (CI 77742), Iron Oxides (CI 77491, CI 77492, CI 77499), Titanium Dioxide (CI 77891). Net Wt: 3.5g


- Swatch -


Calabaza is a cream lipstick which sets into a satin finish. It is super lightweight on the lips. The formula is amazing and the pigmentation is on point. It also has vanilla smell. Another fantastic product in my makeup collection!

Ash Grey Long Wavy Wig by Wigaholics

Tonight I will be reviewing my sponsored wig from Wigaholicsa new online store specialized in wigs and wig accessories. :)

I chose Ash Grey Long Wavy wig and I have to say that the wig looks exactly like on the website photos. It has arrived really quickly, so another + for that!


- Specification -

Type: Hiperlon Fibre (max temp 248'F / 120'C)
Wig color: Grey
Wig length: 70 cm

- Review -

Quality: ★★★★★
The wig is soft, feels natural and color is the same as shown on the website. Besides the wig, I've got a wig brush, cap, stand and a set of bobby pins in the same color as the wig, everything wrapped securely in a plastic bag. The quality of the wig is excellent! It's heat resistant, washable and thick. The wig is full and it is not a lace front, although it has baby hair so it looks totally natural while worn. The wig is also adjustable, it has straps to secure it in place. The wig doesn't tangle, and strands don't fall off too much while brushed.

Comfort: ★★★★
Wig is absolutely comfortable, I enjoy wearing it!

Color: ★★★★★
Big plus for presentation on the website, I've got the exact same thing I was looking for to get.
Color is perfect medium grey with natural shine.

Overall: ★★★★★
The overall quality of the wig is amazing and it exceeded my initial high expectations. I warmly recommend! :)

Umineko No Nakukoroni - Frederica Bernkastel Wig from Uniqso

10% off code: obsidiank

Hello guys! It's me again. :) Blog update after sooo long. I apologize for that, but to be honest I had insanely busy period with shootings. This time I will review Umineko No Nakukoroni - Frederica Bernkastel wig from Uniqso


- Shipping -

Processing time is 3-4 working days. Wig will be shipped separately from the other Uniqso items via

  • EMS (Estimated in 5-10 working days) 
  • Express Shipping (Estimated in 4-7 working days) 
  • Registered Post (China Post, Estimated in 14-25 working days).

My wig was sent via express shipping and I got it in less than a week.
It came unharmed and wrapped securely in a plastic bag, inside a paper box and net. 


- Specification -

Type: 100% heat resistant fibre
Wig color: Purple
Wig length: 100 cm


- Photos -







- Review -

Quality: ★★★★★
The quality of the wig is excellent! It's heat resistant, washable and the strands are thick. Thick strands help hide the wig cap. The wig is full and it is not a lace front, although it has baby hair so it looks totally natural while worn. It is really soft and it has a feeling of the real hair. As seen on the photos, the wig is adjustable and with straps to secure it in place. You can part the hair however you want and the bangs are really long, so you can wear them on the side, or style them yourself. The strands don't fall off that much when brushed, and the wig doesn't tangle that badly. I suppose this wig tangles more than the others I have, but in my opinion, it is normal for this length.

Comfort: ★★★★
Wig is comfortable, but because of the length it can be a little heavy and slightly slip on the back.

Color: ★★★★★
Color is amazing! It is exactly what I wanted - real, rich purple that is not either hot or cold shade.

Overall: ★★★★★
This wig is really stunning, and it is of great quality compared with it's price. The length, softness, color and hair style is exactly what I wanted, and I can also style it how I want. The only downside is that it is maybe a little too shiny, because that shine can cheapen the wig, and make it look less natural. Other than that, I warmly recommend! :)

Package / Pair of Circle Contacts (2 pcs) + FREE Macaron Lens Case  



 As a mystery gift you get these really cool velcro hair stickers that hold your fringe/hair back. You can be washing your face or doing your makeup and not have your hair in the way. They come in different colors but, they're distributed randomly. They're really cool.

 I like how they sent me all pink! ^^

Size Enlargement: ★★★★★
My eyes are bigger.

Comfort: ★★★★★
These are very comfortable lenses, I can easily wear them for hours.
I had no discomfort while wearing them, and they are really easy to put in and out of the eyes. They are soft, but they don't lose their shape. Very very nice lenses.

Color and design: ★★★★★
Design is just amazing, I'm really satisfied with pink shade! They fully cover my natural colour (brown).
Black rim makes my eyes adorable. ^^

Overall: ★★★★★
I really love these lenses! They are noticable and perfect for experimenting!
You can achieve different effects depending on the makeup, they can be worn as part of your personal style or Halloween costume, for cosplay, parties or as fashion accessory.

And I feel like a goth Barbie while wearing them. ^^
