Hello everyone! I'm back with more items from SHEIN and this time it's a complete outfit! I hope you enjoy this one as much as I did. I'm also experimenting with new photo styles so make sure to let me know if you have any feedback! Let's get into the review now.

All the items in this review came in the same package, individually and nicely packed. It took 41 days to arrive and, as always, Shein provided a tracking number and a great customer service so I had no worries. 

Starting off with the top! You can get it here. I ordered a size medium but I'm pretty sure a size small would fit nicely as well. The buttons are just for decoration but the fabric is a bit stretchy so it should fit anyone easily. This is the type of shirt I like to wear with high-waisted bottoms because it looks a little boxy (at least on my body), also it's somewhere inbetween a crop top and a regular shirt. It's super affordable, only $7.00 and it's definitely one of my favorite shirts.

Now for the skirt! You can find it here. This is a really cute item and I love it. The only thing I'm not a big fan of is the fact that it looks very DYI, if that makes sense. The edges and the straps have no seam finish, so the skirt looks like it wasn't finished, but you only notice it if you look closely. The buttons are decoration only and they're really cute! The fabric overall is REALLY stretchy, it nicely 'grabs' your curves and it's not see-through at all. Unfortunately it's a one-size item so be careful if you're tall! This skirt is only $12.00 so it's worth it as well, I would definitely buy it in different colors if they had it!!

Last but not least, let' take a look at the fur coat! You can find it here. Of course, this is a faux fur coat! It's suuuper soft and warm, and it's a silky material on the inside. I ordered a size small (the only size available at the moment) and it's still a little too big for me. Unfortunately I live in a REALLY warm place so I don't think I'll be wearing this a lot but I feel so fancy!!! The only downside of this coat is that some of the fur hair started to come off and get stuck on my skirt so it felt like I had a pink cat walking all over me. But it's cute nonetheless. This is the pricier item on this list, $34.00, which in my opinion is still a reasonable price so I recommend it as well if you want to feel like a fancy lush princess!

I'm here with another item from SHEIN and this time it was quite an unusual item for me. I'm not used to wearing boxy blouses like this, or wearing blue, or stripes. So we're definitely stepping out of the comfort zone here. Just like my previous SHEIN item, this one took about 66 days to arrive because of the holidays, but other than that I didn't have any problems with shipping. 

About the shirt itself, it's really cute! I love the peter pan collar and the shade of blue. I'm not sure if I'm digging the fabric, though. It doesn't feel very breathable since it's not cotton, even though it's quite thin. You can't iron it, I gave it a try and it melted like plastic. But by putting another piece of cloth on top of it (like another shirt) and ironing, it's possible to get rid of the folds!

I ordered a size small and when I first got it out of the package I thought it was too big for me but it fits perfectly! Keep in mind it is supposed to have a 'boxy' look to it, so if you're not into that, you might want to skip this. You can tie the collar on the back, which I thought was really cute.

Overall, this was a pretty decent product. It costs only US$12.00 by the time I'm typing this review and I think that's reasonable and you get a good product for a low price! If you're looking for a more summer-ish romantic type of look, this is definitely the item for you. Try matching it with overalls or a cute skirt and you have the perfect date day outfit.

I'm starting a new section on my blog where I'm going to review 'fake' makeup products, the so-called fakeups. Sketchy companies basically try to copy popular makeup items and sell them at really low prices on the internet. It takes only a few seconds of research to find a lot of red flags but I was really curious and wanted to try some of these products for myself and see if they're as bad as people say! Friendly reminder that I am NOT recommending these products and I will not share any links to purchase them.
The first fakeup item I'm taking a look at is the Velour Liquid Lipstick by Jeffree Star! You can find the original one at the official website for US$18.00 each + shipping. The fakes were US$5.00 each, with free shipping. All of them arrived after 30~40 days. I ordered the shade Posh Spice from one seller, Unicorn Blood and Doll Parts from a different seller. 

Straight away you can notice that Posh Spice's pink packaging looks less vibrant than the other two, and it's much more obvious in person. The container itself feels expensive, a hard plastic that feels like glass. The name and logo on the packaging starts to come off if you rub it, as you can see, it's almost impossible to read anything on Posh Spice's container. 

Let's start with Posh Spice! I actually ended up wearing this lipstick a lot before making this post so that's why it looks half empty on the pictures. The lipstick smells REALLY nice, like vanilla cake. But it's not that strong, so once you apply it to your lips it just fades away eventually. 

The first coat was slightly streaky and, out of the three, this one took much longer to dry and it didn't dry completely. After a few minutes it was still tacky and not 100% matte, but it's smudge-proof and it doesn't get flaky and cakey. It's also really long-lasting! In person, the fake looks nothing like the shade you see on Jeffree Star's website. The real Posh Spice has a nude color, more beige/light brown while the fake one has a hint of lavender.

Moving on to Doll Parts! This one smells like fruity bubblegum and it's soooo good I could eat it. The real Doll Parts looks lighter on the website, the fake one looks much brighter and more magenta. Unfortunately it's hard to tell the difference judging by pictures because even the real one looks different depending on the lighting, camera, filter, etc. 

Overall, the lipstick is slightly streaky at first but it dries SUPER fast so you can apply a second layer almost immediately. It's smudge-proof, long lasting and unlike Posh Spice, this one dries out your lips completely so it's a good idea to moisturize a lot after wearing this. 

Last but not least, we have Unicorn Blood! This one smells like vanilla cake as well and it's really pleasant. A problem I have with lots of dark liquid lipsticks, not just fakes, is that most of them don't give you full coverage and it looks streaky even after two coats. This lipstick is not different. 

Just like Doll Parts, it dried completely almost instantly, which is good... I think. The real one on the website looks like a deep dark brown, while the fake looks more like a purple-ish red. Again, I can't tell if that's accurate because lighting, filters, camera quality, monitor settings and all that stuff. This lipstick is also smudge-proof and long lasting.

Down below is a gif (no editing, no filters) showing you the three shades.

All the lipsticks actually do what they claim to do, which is to be matte, smudge-proof and long lasting, that's honestly surprising. The lipstick boxes are perfect copies of the real ones, which means they list the ingredients of the REAL product.
So, are the fakes really vegan and cruelty free? I'm not sure. But I'm guessing not. You can easily find cheap dupes for all of these shades on legit makeup websites or on your local drugstore or makeup store so don't be scared to go experiment!
