Guess what came in the mail!


My wig! I promised not to talk about it anymore until I actually got it, so here's my post. I ended up going for a completely different wig from what I originally planned, I got some really mixed reviews and personal account related to Gothic Lolita wigs, they took forever to restock, and I decided that I could probably find a wig that would go better with my style that was cheaper without sacrificing quality. 
I checked out a Clair Beauty seller on eBay and decided this wig would be perfect for me.


I found a lot of good reviews for not only Clair Beauty, but this specific eBay seller, so I gave it a shot. The shipping was economy so the seller said that it would take up to two weeks, but surprisingly it only took about eight days to get here. I had to sign for it, since it was shipped from Taiwan, but since I take night classes it was fine.

The packaging was really good, it was in a hairnet, inside a cardboard ring, sealed in a plastic bag.

The wig also came with a decent quality wig cap and a very cute storage bag. All of this is totally secondary, though, because the wig looks exactly like the stock photo!

No makeup, sorry.

I love it so much, I think the color really suits me and it's not nearly as shiny as I thought (or read). I don't really have time to do a full review, so I'll save that and all the different lighting pictures for later. Probably this weekend when I get a bit of a break from all the hectic baking. oh, by the way.

My first attempt at cake pops, lol.
I started to get better towards the end so the first few are a little messy. Everyone said they look good, though. I'm happy enough with it, and my next batch will be much prettier. 

That's it for right now! Thanks for reading as always ♥

    1. No, actually I used a method that one of my instructors told me about. It involves destroying a cake and then adding frosting.

    3. Then you should just use the classic method! It's pretty easy and makes really rich tasting cake pops. There are tons of recipes online for it.
