EOS Super Nudy Violet Lenses

PRODUCT DESCRIPTION:
□ Diameter: 14.5 mm
□ Base Curve: 8.6
□ Water Content: 38%
□ Price: $20.00 USD
□ Availability: Kiwiberry1-Collection

PROS:
□ Comfortable
□ Not too dramatic
□ Makes eyes look larger but not too much

CONS:
□ Not much opacity
□ Difficult to put on
□ Not much enlargement

COLOR:
□ Upon seeing these lenses I really thought they were going to be a very light lilac color but it goes on a bit darker and more lavender. It's not as opaque which I was already aware since the purple looked almost transparent, though I wonder how these would've looked if they were more opaque. I think it has really good color pay off. From a distance it's a bit lighter but up close it's more vivid and brighter. On the other hand, it's not too light where it looks creepy but it's enough to be noticeable.

COMFORT:
□ These lenses were so difficult for me to put on which is why I waited to review these last. I almost wasn't going to review them because for some reason they kept popping off! But after trying several times I finally was able to get them on and they were actually very comfortable! Very little discomfort and I experienced minimal dryness. Definitely a plus with these lenses!

FINAL THOUGHTS:
□ I was extremely surprised to see how subtle these lenses were (and I use that term very loosely). I know violet is far from natural but these lenses were very wearable and they didn't look over the top cray! The fact that these were more subtle and wearable, not to mention comfortable, is a definite thumbs up for me!

Geo Xtra Sherbet Violet Lenses

PRODUCT DESCRIPTION:

□ Diameter: 15 mm

□ Base Curve: 8.7

□ Water Content: 38%

□ Price: $20.00

□ Availability: Kiwiberry1-Collection

PROS:

□ Feels comfortable

□ Makes eyes look bigger

□ Not too dramatic

CONS:

□ Felt drying 

□ Not as opaque

COLOR:

□ The color of the lens is a vivid royal purple but when applied it turns into a more deep purple and less vivid. If you're looking for more dramatic purple lenses then these might not be what you're looking for especially if you have dark brown eyes. I think if you have anything lighter than brown eyes then these would be more vibrant and noticeable.

COMFORT:

□ These went on comfortably without much discomfort. I think these lenses were more comfortable than  other lenses I've tried. They did begin to feel dry after a while as usual.

FINAL THOUGHTS:

□ These lenses definitely make my eyes look larger. I actually like that they are rather subtle than overly dramatic and obvious. I like that from far away the color seems almost unnoticeable until you look at it up close. I would most likely recommend this lens based on comfort and color.

GnG Dueba Brown Circle Lens Review

PRODUCT DESCRIPTION:

□ Diameter: 14.5 mm

□ Base Curve: 8.6

□ Water Content: 38%

□ Price: $20.00

□ Availability: Kiwiberry1-Collection

PROS:

□ Feels very comfortable

□ Looks natural

□ Makes eyes look bigger

CONS:

□ Felt drying after long time of wear

COLOR:

□ The color of these lenses are a medium dark brown shade but it can look lighter depending on the lighting. I like to think of it as my eye color only bigger and better! These are extremely natural looking so if you're looking for brown lenses that are very natural, or something to enhance your brown eyes, then these are definitely a good choice.

COMFORT:

□ These went on easily and comfortably. I didn't have as many issues with these lenses as I did with others that I've tried. But as always, my eyes started to feel dry after a while of wear.

FINAL THOUGHTS:

□ I really like how these lenses give me that doe eyed look while still looking natural. These lenses are a nice way to enhance natural brown eyes because it doesn't alter too much of your eye color, though they might actually be a tad bit lighter. Either way I really like them and I would definitely use them again especially if I'm going for minimal makeup and I want have bigger and brighter eyes.

GnG/Dueba Big DM23 Gray Lenses

PRODUCT DESCRIPTION:
□ Diameter: 14.5mm
□ Base Curve: 8.6
□ Water: 38%
□ Price: $15.00
□ Availability: KIWIBERRY1-COLLECTION

PROS:
□ Looks natural
□ Makes eyes look bigger

CONS:
□ Felt very drying
□ Not as opaque as I would like it to be

COLOR:
□ These lenses are gray but it's not very noticeable if you have dark brown eyes like I do. It shows a little bit of gray on the outer rim but it's not too extreme. The gray is more noticeable up close.

COMFORT:
□ Once the lenses were on they felt fairly comfortable. But almost immediately my eyes started to feel really dry. There was one incidence where the lens popped out because my eyes were way too dry even after applying eye drops. 

FINAL THOUGHTS:
□ Despite the discomfort I got from my eyes drying out, I really like the look of these lenses. They're natural enough for me to wear on a regular basis and I really like how it makes my eyes look bigger and brighter without altering the color of my eyes too much. Although I would've preferred these lenses to be more opaque gray, these really bring out my brown eyes.

Geo Xtra Hearts Blue Circle Lenses

PRODUCT DESCRIPTION:
□ Diameter: 15mm
□ Base Curve: 8.7
□ Water: 38%
□ Price: $20.00
□ Availability: Kiwiberry1-Collection

PROS:
□ Comfortable to wear
□ Makes eyes look bigger
□ Very opaque and vivid

CONS:
□ Felt drying after a while

COLOR:
□ These are definitely bright blue lenses. I have brown eyes so they go on darker than what they look like in the packaging. I was expecting it to go on a lighter blue but it's not as opaque as I thought. I find this pair to be more noticeable than other blue lenses I've tried.

COMFORT:
□ These go on comfortably. It doesn't feel like I have anything on but after a long time of wear my eyes will start to feel dry. As always I don't blame the lenses for this because it happens to me no matter what pair of lenses I'm wearing.

FINAL THOUGHTS:
□ If you're looking for more noticeable and dramatic blue contact lenses then you will have no problem getting that with these. These are definitely more dramatic than what I'm used to but I easily adjusted to the color. But personally I don't think I look good with blue eyes and it's not something I would typically go for. I like the design and how they feel when they're on. I would most likely purchase this pair in a different color.

(CLOSED) Hana 30 Day Lenses Review & Giveaway (PinkyParadise)

Caution Notes:You are best advised to consult your eye doctor before wearing any contact lens. It is your responsibilities to minimize the risk of wearing lenses. Kindly please read the wear and care guide carefully to ensure proper handling of lenses (which is provided in the website). The rule of thumb for your eye safety is, if you experience any discomfort, please remove the lens immediately.

I've been trying out these circle lenses from Pinkyparadise.com. I really like the big dolly eye effect of them and because they're brown, they look really natural. I have both the Mars Brown and Iceye Brown lenses and they look pretty much identical when I wear them. Iceye Brown is a tiny bit lighter than Mars Brown but there really isn't much difference between the two.

The Hana 30 Days lenses last for one month and they range $11.90 each.

PRODUCT DESCRIPTION:
Diameter : 14.0mm
Water Content : 45%
Base Curve : 8.6mm
Life Span : 1 month disposal

PROS:
For circle lenses, the Hana Iceye and Mars Brown look really natural. Some circle lenses can look somewhat scary but these lenses really bring out your eyes without looking too fake. They do make your eyes look bigger which I like and because it isn't too obvious that I have circle lenses on. Iceye Brown is far more comfortable than Mars Brown. The Iceye Brown lenses didn't feel drying on my eyes and it felt comfortable enough for me to wear for a long period of time. Both lenses are comfortable at first but Iceye Brown lasted longer based on comfort level.

CONS:
Mars Brown on the other hand was more uncomfortable on my eyes. It was a bit drying even after just putting them on. Personally I don't think it's the lenses fault because with any lenses I wear I always seem to find some level of discomfort after putting them on. So this "con" isn't really put to blame on the lenses, more so on myself.

Video Tutorial: Back To School/Work Look

Even though I'm not technically going back to school I thought this look would be good for those who are. Especially if you're a teenager and you're looking for an everyday look that's simple and clean. This can also be your basic everyday look if you're not going to school or a look for going to work. This look is very easy to do and you can substitute a lot of colors that I used. You can also darken it up a little bit to make it a little more smokey by applying a darker brown or black eyeshadow to the outer corner. It's totally up to you! Have fun with this look if you decide to try it out. Enjoy! :)

DollyEye Violet Circle Lenses Review + Photos

Here's a review for the DollyEye Violet Circle Lenses courtesy of Pinkyparadise.com. I have to first begin by mentioning that these circle lenses are not your typical natural looking lenses. If the word "violet" didn't throw you off already, these pictures will show you exactly what I mean. Even though they are pretty unnatural, I do love that about them. When it comes to colored lenses I do prefer something more obvious and these do just that! I probably wouldn't wear these as much as the EOS Candy Brown circle lenses but they're definitely fun to have! Like I mentioned in my other review, it is recommended that you do not wear contact lenses for no more than 8 hours out of your day.

AVAILABLE AT: Pinkyparadise.com
ITEM DETAILS
Weight: 0 kg, 100 grams
Brand : DollyEye
Diameter : 14.2mm
Water Content : 38%
Base Curve : 8.6mm

I give these circle lenses about a 8/10 based on comfort level. These particular lenses took a little bit of adjusting when I finally got them on. They irritated my eyes just a tad bit but nothing too extreme. They got more and more comfortable in just a matter of minutes. These lenses also dried my eyes out a lot quicker so I highly recommend keeping really good eye lubricants around because you'll definitely need them within a few hours, if not right away! I also noticed my vision was kind of blurry in the beginning but it eventually cleared up.

These lenses are far more obvious especially in flash photography and in natural sunlight. In low light, they are still fairly noticeable but not as much. These lenses are pretty large but not as compared to EOS Candy Brown circle lenses which are a 14.5mm in diameter. Because they're not as large, they don't really give me the dolly eye look but I still enjoy the look of them.

These run for about $25.90. They may be a bit pricey but keep in mind that some basic purple/violet lenses do not come off as opaque as these do. If you have dark colored eyes, these lenses will have no problem showing up. However, with dark eyes, they do appear a bluish purple (which is the definition of violet) but in the lens case alone they look more purple. Nonetheless, you won't confuse the color of these lenses once you have them on because they're extremely vibrant! Definitely worth trying!
