First pic shows my natural eye color
Website Ordering
To start I ordered the from Honey Color instead of Pinky Paradise this time. Pinky only had them in prescription for some reason and I don't require one. This was the first pair I ever bought outside of Pinky, and as far as customer service goes, I didn't have any issues ordering/receiving them and I would buy from again.Color/Enlargement
The contacts themselves are big. REALLY BIG. I almost thought I wasn't going to be able to get them on my eyes. The enlarging effect is really good, and perfect for portraying anime characters, or if you just want big eyes that POP. I am totally in love with the color too, however like a lot of people who have lighter colored eyes, I had the issue of my natural eye color showing through when my pupils were constricted. You could really only see that though if you were looking up close. If you have very bright colored eyes, keep in mind that your natural eye color will show though a bit. If you have dark brown/black eyes, these will probably look much more natural on you. These are definitely noticeable on me, someone across the room could easily see them, but for much darker colored eyes yours might blend more.Here's some pictures of them in some different types of light. I apologize the horrible eye makeup. I was in a hurry and makeup isn't really my strong suit anyway. I also apologize for not getting a direct sunlight pic, but it was rainy outside so I had no sun :(
The following pictures are not photoshopped and little to no editing was done so they look as close to real life as possible.
My new DSLR turned out to be a solid investment. It takes nice detailed pics for this.
Comfort
When first wearing them I found them to be pretty comfortable considering their size, however after applying my mascara, I started to notice some irritation. I couldn't figure out where it was coming from, because my eyelashes were not touching them in anyway, and I didn't get any makeup on them. After a little while the irritation subsided and I was able to wear them comfortably just fine. I know a lot of websites say to put in contacts AFTER you do your makeup, but I used to do that and I ended up ruining my makeup 100% of the time that way. Since I don't wear contacts on a regular basis, I have trouble getting them in and my eyes water a bit after I do. I asked my friend who have worn contacts all their life how they do it, and they said they always put them in first. I've never had any problems until today, and I still don't really know what it was all about.Final Verdict:
Website 5/5
No issues ordering
Color/Enlargement Effect 5/5
They are big and the color is so pretty ^3^
Comfort 4.5/5
I'm still not sure if the discomfort was operator error, or the fact that they are so large.
Would buy again!
Well I hope this review was helpful. If you have any question feel free to contact me!

You're doing the right thing by putting your lenses in before applying makeup; if you put them in after, you risk getting makeup caught underneath the lenses! o_o Some makeup gurus do it, but it's definitely not recommended.
ReplyDeleteThat's good to know! I don't see how people put them in afterwards without destroying their makeup in the process lol XD
DeleteHey I know this is kind of an old post but you mentioned you had a hard time finding a picture of someone with a similar eye color and I wanted to say that I did too but your eyes look almost the exact same as mine and now I'm so excited for these contacts to come! They look great on you.
