aliexpress reviews

a desperate attempt to review all the cheap shit i order from aliexpress. in terms of shipping, please keep in mind that i live in the netherlands and that the duration of shipping depends on your location.

Peace sign stud earrings - $0.19

Not as pictured. The lines are uneven and they look really messy, you barely recognise them as peace signs. 1/5

[aliexpressreview]

Golden adjustable beetle ring - $1.28

The ring arrived fast, but the ring was a bit bended upon arrival (though that was easy to solve since its adjustable). Its also quite big and therefor not exactly practical, but its pretty cute anyway. 4/5

Golden moon brooch - $1.88

The pictures look really crisp, so when the brooch arrived i was a little disappointed it looked more kitsch and childish than I imagined. Fast shipping though. 4/5

Red lips stud earrings - $0.22

Definately smaller than pictured, plus the red is all over the pin so I wouldnt recommend wearing them if youre prone to infections etc. Im planning to use them for a photo project so itll be fine. 3.5/5

Harry Potter Deathly Hallows necklace - $0.56

Fast shipping but the quality wasnt really what I expected. Its really similar to the one pictured (right) though so I cant really complain I guess.. 3/5

Beehive hexagon ear studs (also available in silver) - $0.90

Exactly as pictured and fast shipping. Theyre on the bigger side, but they provide the measurements on the product page so I shouldve probably read the whole thing before ordering. 5/5

6 piece pizza friendship necklace (also available as bracelet and in bronze) - $3.98/set

I got this as a friendship necklace for me and four of my best friends. Its stated that its a choker, but it fits like a regular necklace. The pieces fit perfectly together and look as pictures. Fast shipping. 5/5

Golden double triangle necklace - $0.64

I overall love this necklace, however its slightly longer than pictured plus the two necklaces are further apart (heres me wearing it for reference). I dont really mind it, but its something to take into account. 5/5

[aliexpressreview]

Bones bracelet (also available in bronze) - $0.36

I ordered these two bracelets along with some other jewelry from this seller and the shipping was rly fast. The bracelets are a little bigger than you would expect from jewelry on aliexpress, but I consider that a plus. 5/5

[aliexpressreview]

Tiny bee ear studs (also available in silver) - $0.50

Really cute, they look even more detailed in real life. Fast shipping. 5/5

Tempered glass 0.3mm screen protector (iphone 5/5c/5s) - $0.84

I really depend on these guys when it comes to not shattering my phone so i buy these in bulk (in my experience, even if your phone drops, only the protector is damaged and your actually screen is just fine). They usually last me a couple of months and they work just as well as the $20 ones I used before. Im only unsure whether this is actually glass or some sort of plastic, but honestly I couldnt care less as long as it protects my screen. 5/5

[aliexpressreview]

Liquid glitter phone case (for iphone 5/5s/6) - $1.97

I got the silver one for 5s. Very cheap and exactly as pictures. I own it for about six months now but I dont use it very often so I cant really tell a lot about its endurance with daily use. 5/5

[aliexpressreview]

Acrylic short alien necklace - $10.80

A little pricier than the stuff i usually buy from aliexpress, but a great necklace nonetheless. I got the green one for myself + a friend. They fit a little more like a collar and less like a choker, in case thats what youre looking for. Please note the aliens are covered in this thin clear film that should be removed. 5/5

Green leaf sticky notes - $0.61

Really cute, less shiny as pictured and slightly hard to pull them off the others without tearing. Fast shipping.  4/5
