My First Circle Lens (Eyecandylens) Geo Honey wing in Brown.

Wazzup!! Its bin a while Xp I've finished all my exams now :) so i can relax (kinda) and destress myself (unlikely).
Onwards! I decided to join the crazy circle lens faze! Originally my first order was for the EOS adult grey lenses from Mycandyeyes. However they failed to deliver and reply to my e-mails so I opened up a paypal dispute and got my money back. Whats quite freaky is that i'm the only one who got into this situation. I've read loads of comments about Mycandyeyes failure to deliver their lenses in the april-may period.

Even so, I decided to try out another internet shop ( you would have thought i would be put off by now haha)
I eventually found Eyecandylens, whats cool about them is that they have FREE SHIPPING worldwide! :D
The lens are a reasonable price, not too expensive and not suspiciously cheap. The site is also easy to navigate but it would be cooler if they had a "prices from lowest/highest" tab.
Whats also good about this place is that the costumers can review the lens they bought, and they also have a Facebook page,where people can review and talk to them, which i think it quite good because then if something like MycandyEyes happened. You would know! Ah, they also have a blog which reviews lens, which u can check out and it can help you decide which lenses to buy :D

Communication: They sent me the necessary e-mails, informing me when they had dispatched the lens etc.
                         but I personally didn't speak to them about anything because I had no problems.
Shipping: IS FAST. They dispatched my items 2 days after I ordered. ( I ordered on a saturday evening, and they dispatched monday morn) I recieved a tracking number to keep an eye on my items whereabouts. It took 10 days to arrive in the UK from HK.

In my package i recieved two bottles wrapped in bubble wrap in a cute drawstring pocket.

Pretty tightly packed nee!


My circle lens! with mostaches for that added coolness
They also gave me a card to keep track on when my lens expire!

I used Elisa Sungs video to help me cleanse my lens for wear. Since we live in different countries i used a different solution to deep cleanse my lenses but essentially has the same effect.
<-- Welcome EasySept! This solution is for deep cleansing of proteins and other bacteria which could be on the lenses. It will take 6hours to complete the cleansing cycle, be aware not to put them in before then, because its a peroxide solution it will damage your pretty eyes.




<-- You can tell its working when you see all those bubbles! For this solution you must only use the lens case provided.

After using this deep cleanse solution, I changed to a multi-purpose solution.  It is called COMPLETE RevitaLens ( I bought it from my nearest Asda) It comes with a case and a bottle of solution w. instructions.


GEO HONEY WING REVIEW.(14mm)


natural light. My iris is 11mm, so this is pretty enlarging for me!

with flash. looking bug eyed in the morning haha
 Comfort: Very comfortable!I actually wore them for more than 8 hours yesterday...(ashamed)
I could feel them at the beginning, but after wearing them for a while, i couldn't feel them at all :) But for people who have never worn contacts before, it might be a strange sensation before your eyes adjust to them.
Enlargement: I can officially say i look scary with these on.I guess they make me look more awake :L they are very enlarging for me. I dread the day i decide to try 15mm ones haha
Colour: Its ok, but i would prefer the colour to show up more as it blends nearly too well with my natural eyecolour.
Other comments: I LIKE THESE! haha, I would like to say these are natural but people would definately notice if i had these on. dame my small eyes! I've read that some contact lens are a bit slow in following your eye movement. ( i've also seen pictures concerning this) but these are very good.

<-- Even follows when you do the cross eye haha
I think these need some getting use to, but apart from that. I'm all for circle lens!
Just remember to clean them after every usage to make them last that year!!








 Thank you for reading! :)
