[REVIEW] - EOS J-203 New Adult Blue

 Shelf life in the jar: 3 years
Shelf life after opening: 1 year
Diameter: 14.0 mm
Water Content: 38%
Base Curve: 8.6 mm

First thoughts: I wasn't a big fan of the design. It looked pixelated and for some reason i was imagining these lenses to be more of a solid blue. The shade of blue was lovely however, so i was excited to try them on and see how opaque the blue actually was.


I bought these lenses from Pinky Paradise along with a few other pairs. I opened these lenses in April, and i keep them in a case like this:

 

I got this case from the facebook group Raineshop for $4. It comes with a mirror, tiny bottle of solution, tweezers, this stick-thing and the contact lens case. The only problem i have is that the lens case leaks if not placed horizontally level, but nevertheless a very cute case. (:

NOTE: My skin isn't in the greatest condition, so bear with me. S:

NOTE 2: I don't have a fancy camera, so unfortunately i can only take good pictures when im at Elora's place (because she has a nice camera xD) so IN THE MEANTIME we'll just have to deal with these pictures D:

Bathroom Lighting, lens in left eye

Natural Lighting, lens in left eye

ENLARGEMENT: These lenses are not meant to enlarge the eyes (14 mm diameter). However because of the colour of these lenses, i feel like there is no need for any enlargement. The dark outer rim does give the appearance of SLIGHTLY bigger eyes.

With Flash

DESIGN: The design close up is strange. It kind of looks like there are a bunch of very tiny light "bubbles" in your eyes; in other words, your eyes kind of look like they are sparkling in the correct light. I like how the hole in the middle isn't as large as the Max Pure lenses, so the natural colour of your eyes don't show up as much. From far away however, it looks very pretty. The DESIGN is pretty natural i would say. xD

Indoor lighting, both lenses

Outdoor lighting, both lenses

(I apologize, it was very sunny so i was trying my best not to squint, and thus...my eyebrows. D8)

COLOUR: THE COLOUR IS AMAZING. In fact, in direct sunlight, they look VERY BLUE. It's even a bit brighter and lighter than this blue. Unfortunately pictures are almost never 100% accurate, so what i can tell you is that in different outdoor lighting, the shade of blue would be different; however regardless of the weather outside, the blue would be obvious. They're pretty good for cosplaying.My eyes on a bright sunny day almost look like they're glowing -- the colour it gives off isn't really "natural" xD. I personally love the colour payoff, but i wouldn't wear them to school because the colour makes them look less natural than other lenses that i have and my personal preference is to wear more natural looking lenses, or the teachers stare at my eyes and it gets kinda awkward. o___o" if i was going out with friends i would definitely wear these. 

COMFORT: I find EOS to be the most comfortable brand of lenses. My eyes take the least amount of time to get used to them compared to GEO and G&G. I have worn them for 8 hours once and my eyes felt a little dry after 8 hours, which is great because -blush- i don't have a clue how to use eyedrops. They always drop BESIDE my eye. But that's a different story.

OVERALL SCORE: 8/10 - these lenses don't need an enlargement effect; the colour alone is enough for people to notice them right away. These lenses have enough opacity to show a brilliant blue on my dark brown eyes, but in the sunlight they look a little scary. People instantly noticed my eyes and they loved the colour. I'm not A HUGE fan of the design, but they're not bad. I would consider repurchasing these in the future.



Extra Pictures

Outdoors, in the shade

Outdoors, back facing the sun

Outdoors...somewhere. :D

These pictures were all taken outside, but because cameras tend to change their lighting depending on the natural lighting in the picture, all the pictures turn out kind of different. o__o"
To say the least, if you took a picture with these lenses on ... your eyes would look like that. :D

[REVIEW] - EOS Flower Grey

Diameter : 14.0mm

Water Content : 38%

                                         Base Curve : 8.6mm

Life Span : 1 year disposal

I bought these lenses from PinkyParadise. From my experience with them, their shipping is always fast. I ordered them on a Monday & they arrived on a Thursday. :) The downside is, they don't send a shipping confirmation email. I only found out that my lenses had been shipped when I was looking at my order status on their website.

Enlargement

There isn't much enlargement to these lenses, since the diameter is only 14.0mm. You can only see a little bit of enlargement. Personally, I prefer lenses that give minimal enlargement. So these lenses fit my taste. :)

Lens on left eye VS naked right eye.

Colour

The colour shows up really well on my dark brown eyes ! In most lighting, people notice the colour of my lenses. :) I've tried other grey lenses, such as GEO Fresh Color Grey, and the grey did not show up well on my dark brown eyes. With these lenses, you'll have noticeable grey eyes for sure. :)

Design

The design is not very natural, but it's really pretty and unique. :D I bought these lenses 'cause of the unique design. A friend of mine thought that I had stars in my eyes, ahaa. ^^ There lenses make your eyes appear very shiny / sparkly. 8)

Outdoor  lighting.

Indoor washroom lighting.

Comfort

Out of the brands I have tried so far, I find EOS lenses to be one of the most comfortable brands. I rarely have to use any eye drops when I'm wearing these lenses. I've worn these for 10 hours once, and I only needed to use my eye drops once.

Overall

These are one of my favourite pair of lenses. Many people compliment my eyes when I'm wearing the Flower lenses. :) The Flower series isn't for people who want a noticeable enlargement, but it's good for people who want a unique design on their eyes with noticeable colour. ^^ I can't wait to try this series in other colours !
