[review] romwe
Hallo! I realized that I haven't had an intro for most of my reviews lately, so here's a quick one! Romwe is an online womens fashion store, based in China. It is a wholesale company, but I don't necessarily think that that is a bad thing. Most items that I have gotten were good quality, though some are definitely misses. Don't expect $200 quality for $20, but I have gotten many good deals from Romwe! This review is sponsored, but all my opinions are unbiased and honest.
coffee makeup brush set
price: $29.99
brushes: 15
bag size: 9.2x8.2x21.5
top left: powder brush [i don't use powder]
bottom left: "multifunctional" powder brush [tried to apply blush with this, not a fan of this one]
top right: small blush brush [picked up product well]
middle right: foundation brush [applied sheer tinted coverage fine]
bottom right: contour brush [overall decent, used to blend out highlight]
top left: nose brush [fine]
middle left: detail eyeshadow brush [it's okay]
bottom left: big eyeshadow brush [performed decently, scratchy]
top right: small concealer brush [blended concealer fine]
bottom right: angled eyeshadow brush [worked well]
top left: smudge brush [scratchy, decent for blending]
middle left: smoky eyeshadow brush [tried to use to blend out lashline, ended up having to substitute another brush]
bottom left: eyebrow comb [good, i like the comb and the brush, which helps shape my brows]
top right: lip brush [worked alright. not a huge user of lipsticks that don't apply well with their own applicator though]
bottom right: medium eyeshadow brush [worked fine, scratchy]
travel size bottles set
price: $7.99
material: plastic
Smelled bad at first, but after airing out, the overwhelmingly plastic smell went away. There were little plastic stickers saying "shampoo", "conditioner", etc. It was very helpful! The bottles were all very decently sized (for travel usage). The pumps and spray functions of the bottles were good. I thought the 3 small containers for various creams were quite small though. Likely these weren't meant for any trips longer than 2-3 days. Overall, pleased, and will be using them often!
ivory open shoulder sweater
price: $10.99
material: polyester
size: one-size
sleeve length: 55 cm
bust: 70-140 cm
length: 50 cm
Wasn't extremely impressed with this sweater. The material was thin, and very ruffle-y. The armpit area was ... uncomfortable and strange. It was a decent sweater, and I can see myself wearing it again. Overall, it is alright, worth the $11 price tag, but nothing special,
apricot turtleneck sweater
price: $24.99
size: one-size
material: acrylic
shoulder: 65 cm
sleeve: 49 cm
length: 58 cm
bust: 122-132 cm
My favorite item in this package, I'd say. This sweater fit well, was slightly baggy, and very comfortable. I don't usually like turtlenecks that much (I prefer mockneck sweaters/shirts), but this was surprisingly comfortable and right to my taste.
black belt
price: $4.99
length: 113 cm
width: 3.5 cm
I wish I did martial arts as a kid, but no can do. This was a great belt for $5, and overall was very comfortable/useable. Most belts around this price range I find are flimsy and cheap leather that rips easily, but this was very durable.
Thank you for reading! End with Darcy pictures :^)

rambles;
i enjoy music in general, the smell of old books, the smell of new books, cracking the spine of a new book open, hilarious things, things that make me cry from sheer emotion, sad fics and dramas, cheesy dramas, baggy sweaters, pretty pictures, having that moment of inspiration before writing a story and being satisfied with the outcome, sleeping, running on no sleep, ice cream cake for birthdays, putting up my christmas tree by myself, cool lemonade, rainy cold days, drizzles on your face, action movies, unlimited amounts of piping! hot noodles and dumplings and wontons, minimalistic furniture, laughing at friends who are shorter than me, having deep conversations with strangers, muted colors, going through color pallets at diy stores, choosing yarn and looking through projects, drinking bubble tea, going to froyo stores, that moment when I finally draw something the way I imagined it, baking tasty sweets, cute stuffed plush toys, the smell of the ocean, fruit, good wuxia drams, some anime, the feeling of collapsing on the mattress after a long day, baggy sweaters, ice cream cake for birthdays, the tranquility of night, pretty pictures, cute cellphone charms, the tranquility of night, funny japanese emoticons, when everything is organized, when everything is disorganized, when my clothes match and don’t make me look like an overgrown middle schooler, when I actually don’t expect a plot twist, when I can’t predict what will happen next, overgrown kittens, energetic puppies, and being able to choose when to laugh.
