| #VioletVoxBox: Snippets of what the Violet Vox Box was all about. // full resolution. |
Today is a post that I’m uber excited about doing. It’s been quite some time since I’ve done a beauty post (roughly four months give or take) and I’ve been itching to do a proper one for a bit. Another reason I’m super excited about this post is because it’s on my first Infuenster box. Truth be told, I’m not as active as I wish to be on the site, so it was really a shock to even be notified that I had done enough to even get a box to begin with.
I’ve had this box for quite some time, but I was on one of my breaks from blogging where I had absolutely no motivation to do anything but watching shows, movies, drink tea, read, and sleep. I almost got out of my funk just to type up something about this box, but I felt that it would feel too forced and opted to wait it out. Now that I’m out of my funk and back to blogging, I can finally have a chat with you lot about it.
I have tried everything save for the Deep Cleaning Clay Mask because I’m a very frequent user of Montagne Jeunesse and can give a review without using that mask and mostly because I wanted to save it. I also didn’t use the Dry Shampoo because I currently have really short natural hair so it would be a tad pointless. This post is a little low on images and I’m so sorry for that, my old memory card for my camera is bloody broken, so a lot of the pictures I took are irretrievable. (Cry for my memory card.)
Note: This post contains products that were sent to me through the Influenster Program. That being said, the opinions in this post are not influenced in way, shape, or manner by monetary or influence of any kind. These opinions are my own and whatever is said here reflects on me, as a person, and my personal likes and dislikes. In some instances, there will be bits of profanity.

Good day, loves! Well, morning for me. I started typing up this post at about 8pm last night and I finished around 7:30 am (Eastern Standard Time of course) without any bit of sleep in between. So as I type this introduction, it's morning for me. But there's no rest for the wicked!
Before you jump into reading this, click that link up above and let MIKA's voice again guide you through this post like an angel of amazingness. Today's post is yet another review and that makes this my second review in a span of about two or so weeks...maybe not even that long. Not only is today's post a review, but there's a little something extra, a couple pictures, and a request for you lot's opinions towards the end, so make sure you read it all.
Now, I'm gonna end this intro and go pass out on my face. Remember to comment, share, and love this post anyway you can.
가자!

Hey everyone! (I was sorely tempted to say "Konbankwanzakahmasuka, minna-san", but I didn't. You're welcome.) Now, before I properly jump into this post, I want to talk about something shortly. There was a post I made that I posted yesterday, but I quickly pulled it back in as a draft. If you managed to catch it before I retracted it, I apologize for the mistakes and intense amount of typos in that post and that was the reason I retracted it. The amount of typos and mistakes in the post made me cringe, so I decided to take it back and edit it. So if a post randomly pops up after this one, then you know why.
Now, that we have that all cleared up, let's talk about this post. Today's a bit of a shocking post, yeah? The last time I did a proper review was on March 23 with me reviewing EOS' Adult Red circle lenses and in that time, I just hadn't had the spark to do anything review related. It felt like I was completely turned away from everything I had grown accustomed to doing with this blog and it was a bit saddening. Deciding to change that, I stumbled upon Brand Backer, a site that helps fashion and beauty brands connect with bloggers in hopes of gaining more exposure, by chance and I thought this would be a perfect way to jump back into this.
가자! (Translation: Let's go!)

| Review Products: These are the products I'll be reviewing in this post. Makeup Mist & Set, Daily Moisture Stick, and Mineral Infused Primer all by e.l.f cosmetics. |
Yo minna! I'm so sorry. I was posting consistently and then I just poofed, however, I promise it was for good reasoning. Did you notice that we've gotten a new layout and a new blog url around here? Actually, I'm quite unhappy with the layout right now, but I felt like it was enough to get me through the next month or so. I felt so utterly rusty while coding this layout, but I hope you all enjoy it and dont find many problems. Also, noticed the new blog name? Humbled Waves. Ugh, I could not resist naming something after the amazing Turn Off Your Television, who I'll be doing a review of in the near future, and so I chose one of my favourite songs by them and gave it a more whimsical, Yasu-ish air to accompany this blog? Nonetheless. This blog is named after the song, " Humble Waves" and I absolutely adore it for several reasons. Listen to the song and if you know me, you'll definitely understand the love for this song.
Also, I turned 20 years old 5 days ago. So that's another reason for my absence. Just reveling in being one year closer to being able to legally drink here in America. Whooo. I have a post planned for turning twenty, but it'll come either sometime within the next two days or the next week depending on how my mind feels. And if you can't already tell, it's totally going to be a text heavy and more personal post.
Anyway, the layout and URL changes will be spoken about later on in this post. Did you read my last post when I mentioned that I had purchased a ton of e.l.f cosmetics? I finally got around to using some of these lovely products at a consistent manner and I can no do a proper review on a few of the products.
If you can't already tell from the image above, I'll be reviewing three products today. Those three products are e.l.f cosmetics' Makeup Mist & Set, Daily Moisture Stick, and the Mineral Infused Primer. So let's not waste anymore time and jump right into this, yes?

Oh hey guys! It's been, what? Two weeks? Gaaah, I don't have any excuses aside from the fact that I haven't been home and I've been out with mates while therefor ignoring any of my responsibilities as a blogger... oops. Also, I'm kind of rushing to get all my official documents and my application out for college. Yess, I'm changing schools again. This time, I'm applying for a school nearby that I'm pretty familiar with. Anyway, that's a topic for next post (trust me...next one is going to be a fucking text doozy).
Today, I'll be posting the final part of The Swatches Archive. If you have no idea of what that is, either read the previous part on this or just keep on reading and you'll probably pick up on it incredibly quickly. However, I do suggest you read the other part as I'll be picking up where I left off without a shred of hesitation.

It's been a while since I posted something the slightest bit interesting on this blog and I really am sorry. Seeing as I just got back from New York a few days ago and have been catching up with friends and family while trying to get over this slight sickness, I'm still trying to get back into the swing of bblogging as much as I used to.
I realized that I don't have many beauty topics nor posts when it comes to this blog, but I have a bunch of accessory and lifestyle topics & posts here. So I felt that I should remedy that. Insert The Swatches Archives. It's obvious what this category is all about from the name. But, if not, here's a watered down explanation:
The Swatches Archives is a category completely dedicated to swatches (or, by definition, a collection of samples) that I've taken while out at beauty stores with testers, at mate's place, or while in the comfortable confinements of my own home. Alongside swatches, I'll include a description, the ingredients (depending on the length of the post), and my personal opinion of the products. More often than not, these swatches will either litter my arms or the fronts of my hands or in some cases, both. This is to bring awareness to brands and products that you may or may not know of and what they're all about.
...this is gonna be one of those things that'll be a doozy. So buckle up and enjoy the ride. In this archive post, all the products swatched here are from a trip to ULTA Beauty I took a couple days ago with my roommate, NIL. Because this post is going to be epically long, I cut it into two parts. Most of the opinions and descriptions of the products as well as collection pictures. The second part to this post will conclude the collection images, the opinions and descriptions, and include the pictures of the swatches.

Here's the second review in my series of reviews based around the circle lenses I purchased from Kiwiberry. If you missed the previous post, I started out this series of review with a review of EOS Max Candy Doll Blue lenses which you can read up on by clicking here. In this review, we'll be reviewing another pair of EOS lenses, the EOS Adult Red lenses.
I won't bore you any longer with this introduction and just jump right into this review. Don't forget to keep in mind that all reviews are mostly 90% text and 10% images.

It's been a while since I've done a proper review of something beauty related and I've constantly promised and stated that I would get around to properly doing reviews for the contacts I received from Kiwiberry over the 2012 holidays and thus, I'll be posting two reviews back-to-back.
The contacts that will be reviewed in this post is pictured above, the EOS Max Candy Doll Blue lenses while the pair of lenses that will be reviewed next post are the EOS Adult Red lenses. So let's get this party started, yes?

It's already been a week? Again? Dear goodness, where is time going? I know I've been tweeting crazily about blogging and making a new posting but I really just have come to Blogger and without fail, lost the motivation to post anything every time I've hit the "New Post" button. Finally, after another bloody week filled with college documents, preparing for college orientation, going out, and being dreadfully exhausted, I finally have the time and motivation to blog.
Despite what this may seem like, I'm actually not going to do a personal blog post today, I'd rather not bore you with a lengthy description of the nothingness that my week has been. Today's post (well, one of today's post) is another lens review, I do remember warning you readers that there would be a lot of those coming up because I bought such a massive amount from Kiwiberry when they had their holiday sale (9 in total).
So keep reading so we can get into all of this.

Good Sunday all. I'm tired and exhausted as hell after pulling an all nighter on Friday and then going out without any sleep on Saturday. It was the worst thing I've done in a while and honestly I had all intentions of blogging when I got home yesterday, but it seems like exhaustion won over my wants. Which is totally okay. However, this is probably going to be something that occurs a lot in the future with schooling coming up and what not. Sigh.
Anyway, we're not here to get into an in depth personal spectrum of things, that'll be in my next post, today is something I'm totally excited about and have been hinting at as an upcoming post for a couple days now and if you can't already tell from the title of this post or the picture in the second link above, shame on you. I'll be reviewing one of my favourite lenses from the batch that I got from Kiwiberry (the last of my batch came in yesterday, which was pretty great), the EOS Manson White lenses.
So let's just jump right into this post, yeah?

It's a bit later than I actually wanted to get this out there and because of that I've added another topic of review in it.
Initially I was going to review Kiwiberry's store, but I went out yesterday with the wife, otto, and I ended up wearing the lens I got from PinkyParadise. So I just decided to review all three in the same post. I should also mention that while this post can be a bit photo heavy depending on how your computer runs, a lot of the photos from the lens review are old (as you can tell by the editing and colouring used) and this review was meant to be done way before 2012 was even close to ending. So, wootz for posting late reviews. and look! First review of the new year, that's always good.
Anyway, I have to say this before I go in. This is not a sponsored post nor has my opinion been influenced by any person or persons. These opinions and words are strictly my own and no one else. I am not getting paid to do this review in any manner, so please do not take post more than what it is... an opinion.\

The Blog.
Find out a little more about Waiting for June.
“Either write something worth reading or do something worth writing.” — Benjamin Franklin
Hello, there!
Welcome to Waiting for June. Waiting for June is a Lifestyle Blog that focuses predominantly on daily life shenanigans and nerd culture, but occasionally dabbles in health & beauty, food, and prattling about serious topics.
Waiting for June is the sixth iteration of the same blog with a different name and structure. The original iteration of this blog was started back in November of 2012 as a purely Beauty and Lifestyle blog under the name Monochromatics which later got abandoned and restarted under the name sumeoseo. With sumeoseo came more beauty and review based blog which quickly lost its appeal. From that point on, there were three name changes, multiple hiatuses, and two blog changes before coming to where we are now.
Throughout this journey, I've learned that this blog shouldn't be limited to what I feel fits in with what I read from other bloggers nor should I put myself in a position to compromise my integrity and the feeling of transparency that I feel should always be there. I've also learned that blogging is probably never going to be a huge source of income the way I always expected it to be. So when I finally returned back to blogging with a fresh blog and an equally fresh name, I decided to make this blog about anything that I wanted to and break the mold of trying to fit into the mold. I can only imagine where this experience is going to take me.

Hello, there!
Welcome to the little about me section of the blog. If it isn't obvious by now, I'm Mochizuki and I'm kind of pretty important here. Admittedly, Mochizuki is a nom de plume, but I digress. I'm currently somewhere in my twenty-somethings and doing that thing where I'm learning how to be a proper adult while balancing being a student and a worker. Speaking of school, I'm a Graphic Design major who's concentration is Web Design and I take my classes online. If I'm being honest here, I do everything online because of my apprehension towards too much social interaction.
I'm typically reading something, playing a video game, watching anime, or something otherwise nerdy because that's how I roll. I don't engage with people unless I'm positive there is something in common there simply because I don't want to make it weird for anyone involved. That said, the reason I originally created this blog, or rather, any of my blogging adventures, was so that I could engage with people wo share the same interests as me while simultaneously sharing my own things with people.
I'm not terribly good at about me's, so expect this to be updated sporadically in a lot of ways.

Review Policy.
A clear and concise guide on how reviews are approached and written.
This blog touches on and is dedicated to a variety of topics including: daily life, cosmetics, my journey to being a healthier me, music, books, anime, et cetera; however, a large chunk of the content found here are some form of review be they miniature reviews or full blown, in-depth reviews. Because of this, this blog has decided to implement and share it's review policy.
Please note that this policy is liable to change at any point in time, so do constantly check back before sending inquiries to kurahge@outlook.com.
- Depending on the workload and the type of product is received, at any given time, multiple products can be in queue to be reviewed.
- Depending on the product, the amount of time for a review to be posted varies. Typically, the length of time is as follows: anything health or beauty releated will take between 5 days and 1 week, books take between 3 days and 5 days, music and movie reviews take between 1 to 2 days, and most other reviews are variant depending on the situation at hand.
- Products are predominantly purchased with my own money. On the off chance that the product or prodcuts were provided to me, there is always a note at the top of post and as well as text within the post that acknowledges such. Despite being provided a product or not, the opinions are honest and valid.
- As of April 14th, 2016, there has been a change in how reviews are formatted. If working with a product that has a list of ingredients (health, beauty, cosmetics, etcetera), there will be a graphic that lists the ingredients out of respect and transparency for the readers.
- Photos for reviews, particularly health and beauty related, are unedited and provided in a clear manner to help show what results occurred (if any.)
- If at any point, a review is rushed despite being informed of and knowing the review policy of this blog, I will drop the review and pay for the product accordingly. I am a college student and a full-time worker, blogging is a bit of side project no matter how much I wish it otherwise, so my time is a bit crammed. Basically, rushing will terminate any agreement we may have unless it's valid (meaning absolutely my fault.)

Because this post is going to be epically long, I cut it into two parts. Most of the opinions and descriptions of the products as well as collection pictures. The second part to this post will conclude the collection images, the opinions and descriptions, and include the pictures of the swatches.
Continue reading past the jump to delve into part one of this roller coaster ride. (I'm so lame, it makes me giggle)

Here's the second review in my series of reviews based around the circle lenses I purchased from Kiwiberry. If you missed the previous post, I started out this series of review with a review of EOS Max Candy Doll Blue lenses which you can read up on by clicking here. In this review, we'll be reviewing another pair of EOS lenses, the EOS Adult Red lenses.
I won't bore you any longer with this introduction and just jump right into this review. Don't forget to keep in mind that all reviews are mostly 90% text and 10% images.

It's been a while since I've done a proper review of something beauty related and I've constantly promised and stated that I would get around to properly doing reviews for the contacts I received from Kiwiberry over the 2012 holidays and thus, I'll be posting two reviews back-to-back.
The contacts that will be reviewed in this post is pictured above, the EOS Max Candy Doll Blue lenses while the pair of lenses that will be reviewed next post are the EOS Adult Red lenses. So let's get this party started, yes?

| Selca #1: New red wig came in recently and I absolutely adore it even if there's a bit too much volume. I think it'll grow to be one of m favourites. ((Ignore my slightly chapped lips...I kept licking them even though I had gloss on orz) |
It's already been a week? Again? Dear goodness, where is time going? I know I've been tweeting crazily about blogging and making a new posting but I really just have come to Blogger and without fail, lost the motivation to post anything every time I've hit the "New Post" button. Finally, after another bloody week filled with college documents, preparing for college orientation, going out, and being dreadfully exhausted, I finally have the time and motivation to blog.
Despite what this may seem like, I'm actually not going to do a personal blog post today, I'd rather not bore you with a lengthy description of the nothingness that my week has been. Today's post (well, one of today's post) is another lens review, I do remember warning you readers that there would be a lot of those coming up because I bought such a massive amount from Kiwiberry when they had their holiday sale (9 in total).
So keep reading so we can get into all of this.

Good Sunday all. I'm tired and exhausted as hell after pulling an all nighter on Friday and then going out without any sleep on Saturday. It was the worst thing I've done in a while and honestly I had all intentions of blogging when I got home yesterday, but it seems like exhaustion won over my wants. Which is totally okay. However, this is probably going to be something that occurs a lot in the future with schooling coming up and what not. Sigh.
Anyway, we're not here to get into an in depth personal spectrum of things, that'll be in my next post, today is something I'm totally excited about and have been hinting at as an upcoming post for a couple days now and if you can't already tell from the title of this post or the picture in the second link above, shame on you. I'll be reviewing one of my favourite lenses from the batch that I got from Kiwiberry (the last of my batch came in yesterday, which was pretty great), the EOS Manson White lenses.
So let's just jump right into this post, yeah?

It's a bit later than I actually wanted to get this out there and because of that I've added another topic of review in it.
Initially I was going to review Kiwiberry's store, but I went out yesterday with the wife, otto, and I ended up wearing the lens I got from PinkyParadise. So I just decided to review all three in the same post. I should also mention that while this post can be a bit photo heavy depending on how your computer runs, a lot of the photos from the lens review are old (as you can tell by the editing and colouring used) and this review was meant to be done way before 2012 was even close to ending. So, wootz for posting late reviews. and look! First review of the new year, that's always good.
Anyway, I have to say this before I go in. This is not a sponsored post nor has my opinion been influenced by any person or persons. These opinions and words are strictly my own and no one else. I am not getting paid to do this review in any manner, so please do not take post more than what it is... an opinion.\
