Review : Garnier Color Naturals in 5 Light Brown

hi ho
i bought Garnier Color Naturals in Light Brown a month ago for US$3
i choose this color because it's the lightest color from Garnier Color Naturals.
in Indonesia, Garnier Color naturals has a short range of shades --" only 5 shades of colour.
and
yesterday i dyed my hair light brown with Garnier Color Naturals in 5 Light Brown.

so, here you go

GARNIER COLOR NATURALS
nourishing permanently hair colour cream
with natural olive oil

 • Natural looking long-lasting colour
• extra soft and silky hair
• easy to apply, non drip formula

let's start


the package (it should be more ashy brown, i don't know why in these picture looks ashy black)


the colour results and the steps
notice the colour result? if you have dark brown hair, the result will be more lighter than you have a brown hair.
that's weird --" ha ha


inside the package there are
(L-R) Cream Hair Colorant Tube, Developer Bottle, 2 Instruction Leaflet ( one of them in Bahasa Indonesia and the other in English and Indian), and a pair of gloves.



colorant mixed with developer
the color looks ashy brown huh?
like a mud lol
 after that i applied it all over my hair
and then waited for 45 minutes

and the result

.....

before and after (taken under natural lightning)

okay, i have a brown reddish hair color with a hint of ash and as you can see above
before the coloring process i have a lines of reddish brown hair but after coloring my hair, it turns out to be more darker. see?




before and after (taken under natural lightning)

look at that.. it makes my hair looked more DARKER with a hint of ash, red, and brown.
well i don't dislike it but it's just not the color i want it to be --"

but usually the color will be more lighter after a few washes, so i'll just gonna wait for a week and then update it to let you know.


Repurchase ? no.. i don't think so because i want a lighter color for my hair.

Overall : IMO if you want a darker shade of reddish brown with a hint of ash, it is for you. but if you want a lighter shade, it's not for you.

note that all products shown above purchased by myself. it's not a sponsored review.

how about you? what hair color do you prefer? let me know ya :)


thanks for reading :)

Review Time ! Geo Princess Mimi Chocolate Brown

today's review is Geo Princess Mimi Chocolate Brown

haha.. i know.. it's kind of a oudated..
but still.. better late than never xP

actually the lens' design is a bit different from the original..
that doesn't mean Geo Princess Mimi Fake, because Bambi series only sold in japan market and pricey
Geo remake it to be sold internationally
that's why it's affordable and cheaper than Bambi Series.

Geo Bambi Series designed by Masuwaka Tsubasa, a japanese model
and very much well-known among beauty bloggers



AngelColor Bambi Series in Chocolate Brown specificatons :

Diameter : 14.2mm
BC : 8.6mm
Water Content : 38.5%
Lifespan : 1 month after opening
Price : 4,980円

it's bambi series, the original, i love the chocolate color
it's kind of hazel color from a far though
IMO Bambi Series much more expensive, even though Bambi series bit more vibrant.




Geo Princess Mimi in Chocolate Brown Specifications :


Diameter : 15.0mm
Water Content : 38%
Base Curve : 8.6mm
Life Span : 1 Year disposal
Price : varied. US$10-35

here's mine


argh.. unique pattern.. creative !



see the difference?
ya.. 15mm lenses are big..  no kidding..



both lenses in


with artificial lightning
gorgeous huh?


with flash


and under natural lightning..
aaaa so good.. i love it :3




camwhoring~ with artificial lightning from a far


IMO :

Color/Design 8.5/10 : good good good.. from a far it's good.. really.. it's like your natural eye color and it's noticeable too ! but when close up, it looks fake even though it didn't make your eye balls pop out. great color !

Comfort 7.5/10: good enough.. wearable 6-7 hours. prolonged it with a few drops of contact lens eye drops and voila, your problem gone. from the pattern, i thought it's thick but when i wore it, it's thin. unbelievable.

Enlargement 9/10: yeah sure.. you can see from the photo, it did enlarge my eyes..

Price 10/10: affordable.. really.. i bought Geo Princess Mimi for only US$10 include shipping from a local seller.

overall 8.5/10: RECOMMENDED ! it's like wow.. blah, i can't say much, just try it for yourself.
