もしもし みなさん!
Today I have a new sponsor of mine to introduce to you: LensVillage! They kindly contacted me a few weeks ago about whether I wanted to review a pair of lenses from them (naturally I did).
LensVillage has a huge selection of colored contact lenses, and their website is very easy to navigate. You can search for lenses by either brand or color (their color selection is gargantuan, and very specific too [there are two separate categories for aqua and turquoise]). I also find it super cool that they have gold colored lenses! (Unfortunately, the ones that I want come without prescription >n<)
So, thank you LensVillage for sponsoring this review!
Let's start!
As you can probably tell from the title, I ordered the EOS Dark Ice Pink 2 Tone lenses~ I've been wanting them in blue for a while but spur of the moment I decided on pink instead, because why not? I've never owned pink lenses before c:
Shipping
The shipping time for these was I believe about two weeks, which is pretty average waiting time for ordering lenses~

The lenses came in an interesting bag that I had never seen before when ordering. It was essentially a normal bubble mail envelope, but it was blue too!
It looked like this! (Also, adorable bunny from Anime Boston~) |
I think they're bears? What do you guys think? I'm bad at these cases ;u; |
Brand: EOS
Price: $23.00
Diameter: 14.8mm

I like how the label has hearts on it ^_^ |
You can see a bit of the lens here~ |
Here are pictures of the lenses in the case~
On the left is the reverse of the lens, on the right the front of the lens |
Close up~ |
Window Light
So pink~ |
As you get further away, the color seems less vivid |
Camera Flash
It looks super light like this |
Dim Lighting
Even in dim light it's visibly pink, which I think is quite impressive. |

So yep, those are the lenses! Before finishing up I'll write some thoughts on them
Design
While the design of these lenses is very cool, it's definitely not something for an everyday look, at least not for me. Also due to the very pale nature of the lenses (since they have no prominent limbal ring), I think they would look nice with strong eye makeup. If you have no eyeliner on at the very least, it might look a bit odd.
Side note: I think the blue version of these lenses would look super cool if you decided to do a sort of frozen Anna (from Frozen) cosplay~ Because they do give that sort of frosty appearance to the eyes~
Comfort
These are pretty comfy! In the left eye it was a bit uncomfortable for a while, but I then realized that I was probably wearing the lens inside out >_> (It's difficult to tell which side is which because the designs on both sides are so similar). Once I got both the lenses in correctly though, I could hardly tell that I was wearing them.
Overall I like these lenses! I won't wear them frequently, but when I do, they will be awesome :3
Thanks for reading the review!
And thanks once again to LensVillage for sponsoring this post~

Ahhh yeah there is the problem of most lenses not being opaque enough >.> These ones are quite opaque, but on the other hand they aren't super versatile for every day wear xD
DeleteI'm glad you liked the review!
