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:

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
