Neo Dali Brown Circle Lenses


BC:  8.6mm
Diameter:  14.2mm
Water Content:  45%
Yearly Lenses

Yeeeeah, super pumped.

I never realized til I got these that the ones I always thought
were pigs were BEARS.  Wow.  So here's a light pink pig and two green bears.

Two ordered pairs and a free gift!
(Which was the Dali Brown lenses.)


Alrighty.

Plain Eyes

Neato.

Here's a close-up of the pattern.  Not bad.

Color:  A nice, dark brown.  Pretty much one-tone.

Pattern:  I can't complain, since they were free.  However, the pattern is extremely simple, and from a few feet away, it just looks like the outer ring of my iris is darker than normal.  If you're going for something subtle, this is for you.  I feel like these are designed to be boosters for eyes of the same color as the contact.

Enlargement:  These aren't very big.  In fact, there's about a millimeter of clear contact between the edge of the pattern and the edge of the contact itself.

Comfort:  These are super delicate!  Much softer than normal, so be very careful handling them, or they might tear.  Other than that, I can barely tell they're in.

Dolly+ Brown Circle Lenses

from HoneyColor!

[Link]

Usage Modality:  Yearly
BC:  8.6 mm
DIA:  14.5 mm
Water content:  42%



(Without)

(With)



Color: 10/10  This is a tricky one.  This color is PERFECT for what I wanted, but may not be for someone seeking a dark brown or natural-ish brown.  The perfect color payoff may also be due to my naturally light eyes.  I wanted something that showed up orange/yellowish for a Bro/Sis/Dirk Strider cosplay, and these
are a million times better than those Orange Manson lenses everyone gets.

Pattern: 9/10  Blends very well.  It would probably be very suitable for dark eyes.

Enlargement:  8/10 Somewhat larger than my normal iris, but not unnaturally.

Comfort: 9/10  Super comfy.

If you hurry, you can still pick up Dolly+ lenses on sale at HoneyColor for $16 AND they’re running a Free Trial Lens Pair with any order special! (My Free Pair was Super Pinky Hazel.) I might just order the few I didn’t get because I love how my Dolly+ pairs so much.

Packaging:


Pinky Paradise's packaging is very nondescript, and usually, your things are sent in a padded/bubble-wrapped envelope.  mine was very well-protected, and nothing was damaged.



The lens bottles are wrapped in this foamy stuff to keep them safe.  I used a gift code with this order, so I got some lil goodies (hair swoops and some eye pads).


If you've never bought Circle Lenses before, most places include a 'cutie case' with each lens pair.  They come in lots of colors and animal types.  Ridiculously cute.
Top to Bottom: Blue Elephant, Pink Fish, Yellow Pig


I'll post separate reviews for each pair, but these all came in the same order.
L to R:
Geo Princess Choco Brown
Geo Princess Apple Green
G&G Wondereye Violet

All snug!

Review:


(Normal Eyes)
(One In)
(Both In) 

Alright, back it up a bit.  Lookin' pretty good.

Okay, here we go.  No eye make-up, so we can get a good look at the lenes themselves.

Color:  7/10  They're a nice brown in bright light, but if it's dim, it makes my eyes look black and alien-ish.  They weren't really what I was expecting, and I thought they were going to be closer to a Hazel color from the pictures.  I do really like them, though.

Pattern:  9/10  Even though they make my eyes look almost black in indoor light, I really love these.  The pattern is also open enough around the pupil to not block any of my vision.

Enlargement:  10/10 Made my eyes look super big.

Comfort:  9/10  Really comfortable.  Just like normal contacts.  I originally ordered the G&G Wondereye Brown (because I wanted something a little brighter for a Dirk Strider cosplay), but the lens I had ordered ran out.  I still might use these for it, because I reeeeaaallly like them.  (UPDATE: I found the perfect lenses for Bro/Dirk.)
