Here is a better shot of the Lash Jewels... it will basically look like glitter or dew on the lashes:

Full face, for the minerlaized items, I just took the dark and gold pockets of the Laura Gellar product and then put Glissade over it:

And the last one plus my poor photoshop bonus! yeah... it's kind of very lame.

These are interesting little thingamajigs. I got them because I thought it would be close to a Japanese glitter mascara that I heard about (with lots of blue glitter). It's really not a mascara, but an accessory and it only works with certain mascaras. Tonight is my first night wearing it where it didn't "melt" and I think it's because I'm wearing a better mascara. Before I was wearing the L'Oreal Telescopic and it would never keep its form. But now with something from I.D. it's hardened properly and has balled up into little dew like drops as it should.
They come in several different colors (pink, clear, violet, blue, and possibly one other), this one is clear. I'm not sure if they're still being sold though because it was supposed to be Revlon's LE.

Hot hot! I love sakura so I liked this theme extra much! Your features are stunning and the application is really good. Love the sparkle!

So pretty!

I have the givenchy lash jewels from ages ago, they are so cool, but man its hard to get them on and keep them on! Do the revlon ones actually *dry* or do they stay sticky? The ones I have just stay wet which is fairly annoying, and I know you said you used different mascaras with them but I've used practically every brand with mine and they still stay sticky! Grumble.

With the L'Oreal mascara, it did stay wet and when it diffused made my mascara look really strange. But last night when I wore it with this other mascara, the individual drops I touched felt harder than the previous times I used them. I especially noticed it when taking off my makeup (which I had never noticed before).
Applying them can be tricky, especially if it gets on two lashes at once.

On a separate note, I had actually heard of the Givency stuff and was really interested in it.
