Review | Dolly Wink Natural Cute lashes in #14 + Gloss Cosmetic lashes

Hi everyone! 

As always, it's been too long since my last post.

The other night I went to see Kyary Pamyu Pamyu with my sister.

It was so so so much fun. I can't even explain how energetic and exciting it was.

Anyway, I had so much fun doing my makeup before the show (and I wish I'd taken photos of my dress).

So here are some photos and a list of products I used. ^_^

Products I used:

Review | GEO Berry Holic Aqua lenses

Hi everyone! ^__^

I'm not going to bother apologising for my lack of blogging, because I realise that it's how I start almost every single post. And if you follow my blog (all 30 of you) then you already know that I'm as unreliable as they come. Quit yo' belly aching! I'm a busy lady (sorta).

my face (feat. GEO berry holic aqua lenses)

Anyway, I ordered my first pair of lenses from Pinky Paradise, the Berry Holic Aqua lenses.

Unfortunately, one of the lenses was damaged in such a way that I couldn't have known before opening the vial. The left lens (I think it's the left, although they're pretty interchangeable) had a TINY scratch near the inner coloured section. Barely noticeable, but in my eye it felt like knives.

this is what the lenses look like

 I can't even express how wonderful Pinky Paradise's customer service team are. 

I wrote an email, received a form asking for details of the fault, and within 48 hours they had assured me that they will send a replacement for the faulty lens. 

Which is an incredible turn around. 

Close-up + Comparison

I shouldn't have left them in my eyes for as long as I did, but y'know... Reckless.

So I have some pictures already of how they look in my eyeballs. 

Will post more photos when I receive the replacement lens.

without + with lens

I like these lenses a lot cause they're pretty natural.

They just enhance/enlarge my natural eyes, which is what I look for in an everyday lens.

The enlargement is impressive for lenses that are only 14.2mm in diameter.

Hmm. I guess I'll add more things when I get the other lens, but that's all I have to say for now.

But thanks for stopping by. As thanks, here's a nice picture I took recently of a tree near my house (feat. moon):

I won't lie to you and say that I'll be posting more frequently. 

But I hope everyone is well! 

Take care

Review | Dolly Eye Crystal.i Hazel Lens

Hi everyone!! 

Finally, here is my review of the Dolly Eye Crystal.i Hazel lenses that I received from Uniqso. 

Also, I forgot to mention that I was given a discount code to offer to my readers! 

If you look in the side bar, there is a discount code for purchases from Uniqso. Just enter Paper10 at checkout for a 10% discount!!! So if you ever wanted to try these lenses out, go have a look! :) 

If you're still a bit worried or have never used contacts before, do visit Uniqso's Circle Lens Library.

There is tons of information about circle lenses here, including solutions to common problems encountered when wearing contact lenses.

Bzzzz!

Review | Beuberry Natural Grey Lens

 Hi again everyone! 

I guess I got excited about these lenses, last night's fiasco (R.I.P. left puffy green lens) :'(

But this morning I put my Beuberry Natural Grey lenses in, and I am really impressed.

This is my first time trying Beuberry lenses. I got them in my package from Uniqso.

I think they are almost identical to the GEO Xtra Grey, but maybe slightly less dramatic. 

I'm definitely going to put these back into their lens case A LOT more carefully than I did with my Barbie Puffy 3 tone greens. I'm still very upset with myself for wrecking them. 

But these lenses have got me all excited because they are excellent as well!

|  Just painted my nails! ^__^  |

 They are INCREDIBLY comfortable. The most comfortable big lenses I've worn so far. 

Despite being 16mm in diameter, I've been wearing the lenses for 8 hours already and am experiencing almost no discomfort (that said, I should probably take them out soon).

If I had one complaint about these lenses, it's that they're TOO comfortable

I keep forgetting I'm wearing them!  ; )

|  This was on my way to work. I obviously just woke up. Baggy eyes. (-__-')  |

Honestly though, I can't fault these lenses on anything. 

The design is perfect for my grey-blue eyes and they are quite natural looking whilst still being really enlarging. I definitely recommend these lenses to anyone wanting to give some larger lenses a try! Especially if you're prone to dry eyes, because these are a very comfortable 16mm lens.

They're great for those with lighter coloured eyes. It seems like these were almost designed with lighter coloured eyes in mind. Which is nice, as it seems like most are designed especially for darker eye colours (that makes sense of course, since they're made in Asia).

I love love looove these lenses!

Close up / Comparisons 

|  Both lenses in!  |

 |  Comparison of my normal eye and my eye with Beuberry lenses  |

 | GEO Xtra lens     |     Beuberry Natural lens |

Above is a comparison between the GEO Xtra WTA55, and the Beuberry Natural Grey.
In terms of aesthetics, the difference between these lenses is barely noticeable.
I think that the GEO Xtra look an itty bitty bit bigger, and in terms of design, GEO use lines going inward from the limbal ring, whereas Beuberry use a ring of fading pixels.
Both blend well with my natural eyes, but I do think that the Beuberry's are less dramatic.

Hooray! I'm excited to try my last pair of new lenses from my package. :D
Stay tuned, and thanks for reading!
Let me know what you think in a comment, or head over to my Facebook page!
I've got a Korean speaking test today, so I better go practice!

Review | Barbie Puffy 3 Tone Green Lens

Hi again.

So this is an initial review with a longer review coming later because I'm a big dummy.

This afternoon I got home and was excited to try on my new lenses - especially the Barbie Puffy 3 tones.

 And I love them. 

With flash

I'm sad though. Because I love them so much. But I ruined them as soon as I took them out!! 

The left lens got caught in the lid of the lens case and I didn't notice, so I started screwing the lid on. 

And I shredded it! I'm really bummed. 

I didn't even get a good full face photo with them in! 

Without flash

Anyway, I think you can buy a single lens from Uniqso. 

So at least I can replace the lens that I destroyed instead of buying another set  

I'm definitely going to be more careful from now on. 

What do you think of these lenses?

I really love the colour and how enlarging they are.

The design works really well with my natural eye colour.

But I couldn't find out how comfortable they were/how long I could wear them without getting dry eyes. 

Because I didn't get to wear them for very long. AH I'm still so upset. T_T

I'll update this post once I've received my replacement lens. 

Thanks for reading guys!

Upcoming Lens Reviews

Hi everyone!

I just picked up my latest purchase from Uniqso!

And as always, I'm really excited to try all my new lenses. The reviews will be posted over the next couple of weeks.

I have them soaking in solution at the moment... I wish I didn't have to wait!! >_<

|  Barbie Puffy 3-tone Green  |  Dolly Eye Crystal.i Hazel  |  Beuberry Natural Grey  |

It came with these which each contain a pair of rubber tipped tweezers, lens case, mirror, and a lens remover. I've never used a lens remover before, and to be honest I think it might be harder to use the stick than my fingers. But I'll give it a try anyway. For science! ;P

|  Aussie flag for an Aussie customer  |  Pandas because everyone loves pandas.  |

It's always a lovely surprise when I open my packages from Uniqso and see the gifts they've left for me.

They really are so lovely. (^_^)

Keep smiling, and stay tuned for these lens reviews!

Review | GEO Xtra WTA55 Grey Lens

Hi everybody!

I've already shared a couple of images of me wearing these lenses in previous posts, 

but felt I should give a proper review and provide some comparison pictures!

It's been a while since I've reviewed any lenses, but I will have some new ones coming soon as well!

I bought these lenses from Uniqso, who are currently celebrating their 2nd anniversary!
I prefer to buy from Uniqso because they provide excellent advice and customer service.

Photo from my last outfit post!

I bought f(x)'s new album, Pink Tape. It's such a great album!!!
I love every single song and the packaging is so cute. Korea really know how to package their music.

 

Obligatory Sass cuddle photo.
I can't resist snapping photos of us hanging out using Photobooth on my computer. ^_^

GEO Xtra Review

Colour & Design
The colour and design of these is wonderful. Great for those with grey or light blue eyes. I think they would work really well with hazel or green eyes as well.


Enlargement
The enlargement of these is great! The colour on the edges blends into the grey colouring of the lens a bit so there isn't too harsh an edge (such as on the Candy Eye grey lenses). This provides extra enlargement without looking too crazy alien.


Comfort
Today I wore these lenses from 9am - 3pm. That's around 7 hours, which is when they started to feel a bit dry. I probably could have applied eye drops and worn them for longer though. So these are relatively comfortable. Especially given their larger diameter. These are as comfortable, or possibly more comfortable than the EOS puffy 3 tone grey lenses, which are only 14.5mm. So that's pretty excellent.

Details

Diameter: 15mm

Base curve: 8.7

Water Content: 38%

The verdict

These lenses are a good balance of natural and dramatic. The colour compliments my natural eye colour and blends well. The darker limbal ring creates quite a lot of enlargement, but detracts from the naturalness of the lenses. They definitely give your eyes a dolly like look, without making you look too alien.

These lenses are my new favourite grey pair. Granted, I haven't tried THAT many but these are the biggest and most comfortable I've tried. I really like them and they've re-sparked my love of lenses.

These lenses get a 10/10!

 YAY! Well I hope you liked this post.
Stay tuned for some new lens reviews and other beauty product reviews coming soon.

Uniqso competition + EOS Fay Brown lenses

As a part of their second anniversary celebration, Uniqso are holding a photo competition!
The major prize is a Hello Kitty Instax camera, and there are also circle lenses and store credit vouchers to be won.

I entered the competition with a recent photo of me  wearing the EOS Fay 3-tone brown lenses. 

These are still one of my favourite pairs as they are natural looking but still really enlarging.

And they even blend really well with my grey-blue eyes. 

 
It would be really cool if you guys could head the competition page and click vote for me. 

PRETTY PLEASE? (◕‿◕✿)

Just click this image to go to the competition and click the vote button!

Thanks for your support and as always, take care of yourselves!
