Circle Lens Review : Crystal.I Hazel by Dueba.

Hey all!

Heres a review on some circle lens I bought from lens village

Lensvillage have a simple layout which is easy to navigate. You cann pay via paypal!~ (whoop!)


Shipping: 5/5 It took 2 weeks for my package to arrive which is within the time limit they specified so coodles to them!
Communication: 5/5 I didn't really need to contact them since the transition went quite smoothly and I encountered no problems with perchasing my circle lens :)
Pricing: 5/5 By far the cheapest pair i had found on the internet at the time. It was around 6 pound not including shipping.
Packaging: 5/5 the lenses came in a protective card case with free lense containers! Which was then encased in a bubble wrapped package! View packaging here

Review

 



Enlargement: As you can see theres quite a huge difference in the size of my eye when i put my the circle lenses on.
I have gotten a few comments (mainly my sister) that i look bug eyed with them on ;L
My natural diameter of my iris is 11mm. Whereas the diameter of the Crystal.I is 14.5mm



 

Flash: The lens light up quite well with the flash but you get a sort of yellowy glow to your eye like a vampire haha

Daylight: In the daylight you can definately see the detail of the Crystal.I hazel lens! I think Daylight suits this lens better as you don't get the yellowy glow like you do with flash, it also shows up so much more nicely! Great photo taking lenses haha

Colour: 4/5 I like the pattern and the colour but its a shame it doesn't show up in all lighting categories. In the night, the colours kind of blends into each other. Up close, it does look a bit pixelated so if your going for that natural look i wouldn't recommend them. I would recommend the GEO honey wing for that. ;)


Comfort: 5/5 I have actually worn these for 12+ hours and still felt fine, until i took them out and there was a faint pink ring around my eye D; Of course the recommended wear for circle lenses is 8 hours but i can definately say that these lenses are very comfortable indeed! There have been a few times where it caused discomfort in my left eye but that was because i had the lens in the wrong way round haha, so folks if you ever feel discomfort make sure you don't have it on the wrong way round! ^^

Enlargement: 5/5 I think i can safely say that these circle lens enlarge my eye enough for me from the above photo haha.

 Unfortunate Photo of Heather with her eyes closed. Still looks pretty!! I happen to think the nooby grin suits me ^^



Clubbing with my pretty friend Ashleigh, got my vampire tooth out, ready to attack haha.



Good ol times~

From the title you might have guessed that this post may be about past experiences with friends/family etc. it is in fact about...a newspaper clipping! I was trying to find my calculator and came across an old clipping from 2007!
When i was younger i really wanted a cat, so then i came across a section in the newspaper where they were advertising rspca cats to adopt. i wanted this really cute black and white cat called Squidge 'i remembered him as smudge but hey, cant argue with the newspaper clip' I must have knicked the page and kept it in some books lol
aah, brings back good memories in these stressful times :)

Hope you've all had a great weekend!! Akikik x x

Smells like Salt.

I wonder if its just me but..does your nose ever catch a of wiff of sea salt on people? The exact same smell on loads of different people. Not all the time mind, just randomly.
From my experience (hehe) I've found that the people who smell of sea salt are usually the people who haven't washed recently ;L or at least their clothes haven't been washed.Which was what brought me to my current thought pattern! I was tidying up my room (shoving clothes in the wash..stuffing stuff inside my draws) and I came across this ancient pile of clothes i haven't touched in yonks, picked up a cute red top and BOOM. smelt of sea salt, its kind of musky like a cologne. It doesn't smell all that bad.. but definately not fresh and dandy.
From my research (HAHA) I've found a higher percentage of males carrying the sea salt scent, however. Males usually sweat more than women and so the salt smell probably comes from there. (>.<) Odd blog post RIGHT?
MEMORIES:
I thought I would write this down before I forget it due to stress overload in exam period or something. G.G and I were casually walking H.dindin down to her law class, things were good and dandy. Dropped H.dindin in law. Waved to Harley then went to wave at Samu through the window. The next bit was a blur of movement for me but somehow G.G and I were looking opposite directions and both turned at the same time, only to bump into each other proper movie style! The bash was so powerful I was thrown some way off into the corridor haha, I was laughing so hard I needed the toilet ;L ;L Aaah so funnay. Someone was apparantly taking a photo of someone at that opportune moment so I hope they got us in the background bashing into each other, ^^.

It was Samu's Birthday the other day! Happy Birthday Samu! Hope you enjoyed your goods and the company ^^, perhaps I should write a blog post on it? To a certain person who may read this blog post, Don't worry. I promise i'll change your name XD Decided! ( went to anagram a certain someones name) I'll call you Krona!

I leave you with a pic from the party at my most mightiest ;) Credits to the lovely Tara, Fashion blogger of myobsessiondujour. 

HAHAHEHEHE,Bye bye Delicious Delicacies! Catch ya eye laterz ;p Akikik xxx

Shopping is lurve

Yaay! Went shopping with DLLY and YIYI! Pretty cold in the uk at the moment, but we dealt with it!

For lunch we went to Wagamama for some grub ;) Service there was pretty good. A waitress would pop round and ask if everything was ok and such ^^ It was really busy for a sunday though, guess everyone wanted something more exotic than roast dinner haha.

My katsu curry!

Dlly's noodles! From her reaction, must be quite chilly! Green tea makes everything better ;)



Yiyi's noodle forest. looks yummy!



Duck gyoza!



Perchases + Gifts of the day!

Lovely Dlly gave me some eylure vivid lace eyelashes! They are so cute, can't wait to try them on and show you guys!

She also got me a cute ring (not pictured) and some corn pocky like snacks?! Those were sooo yummy, will defo hunt for them when i next go back to HK ;)

Other things i bought today were some shoes from urban outfitters! Such beauties! My small 5t4 frame raised to 5ft8 with these! Lav! But, i wouldn't recommend wearing these when its raining or on uneven surfaces, something i found out about the other day ;L After walking in them awhile, the shoes started to rub against the soles of my feet ); but thankfully no blisters formed ;) I guess no pain no gain!

Print boot slippers from Primark: for my cold feet in the winter, but after wearing them for a few days..my feet are still cold. *FAIL*

Sea Vegetable Soap:  I smelled it once..then i was like, I must buy! So far i've only used it once so i can't quite judge it yet. But in that one time i used it, my sister said i smelt like a boy afterwards (¬ ¬)

I wish you a warm evening and leave you with this..:)

XD XD

Love Akikik <3 xx

Today i'll be reviewing a pair of grey circle lenses by Dueba!
I bought these from lensvillage, they were having a sale on these circle lenses at the time so i thought i may as well get em while their cheap haha.

Lens Review

First up apologies for the poor quality photos. I guess no camera phone will ever live up to the same standard as a digital camera, no matter how many megapixels (>.<)

Without Flash Indoor lighting

With Flash

Day Light 

 My Thoughts: 

 Colour: 4/5 So nice! I love the yellow inner ring(even though my sister says it looks like i've been raised by wolves :L) The lenses are more blue than grey though, but hey i'm fine with that ahah.

Comfort: 5/5 V. comfortable! Even more comfortable than my EOS brown lenses (review here ) 

I've worn them for 9 hours so far with no dryness at all, and this is with the heating on! My skin dries out but not my eyes lol. 

Enlargement: 5/5 I only really buy circle lens for the colour but pretty much all circle lens enlarge my eyes on a dramatic scale ;L My iris is only 11mm,so 14.5 is like POW! These are about the same size as my brown ones so if ya click the link in the Comfort section, you can see apretty picture of a comparison of my eyes with and without the contacts ^^ 

 Hehe, pink hair + blue eyes does wonders for your skin complexion! ( Orz, KIDDING, if anything. it made my darker spots more prominent ;L) 

Thanks for reading! Akikik xxx

Belated Chinese New Year Post

Hello everyone!! Just thought it would do a quick post about chinese new year even though its a bit late hehe.
The days leading up to chinese new year were terrible if i'm honest, and the reason why? EXAMS/COURSEWORK DEADLINES/CONFUSION < -- a lot of stress going on (- -) thankfully i'm not one to grow white hairs when stressed haha.
 
This post will basically be pictures (like always haha) on my new years meal! Onwards!~

Mum made some delicious new year cakes! from left to right we have Turnip cake,..water chestnut cake and..sticky brown sugar cake lmao.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Shar and Jen were staying round so we moved to the conservatory to eat our meal ^^ I'm glad there wasnt many awkward turtle silences we tend to have with visitors...usually we have tv noise in the background to compensate ;L

WHO LOVES CRISPY PORK? SAMU LUVES CRISPY PORK! This photo is dedicated to Samu and her immediate love for this dish upon first trying it haha.

Pawns and egg in yummy tomato sauce ^^ One of my favourite dishes ever! Unlucky that i had a terrible itch around my ear at the time supposedly eatting pawns makes it worse so.. less nom nom for me ):

My mother decided to make..gelatinous mochi looking balls for us, inside were...malteasers.. XD XD but the honey comb insides didn't melt enough so when we bit into it, it was just some melted chocolate and a hard lil crunchy thing hahaa.

 So that was my chinese new year experience this year! How was yours? ;P

I hear my sister in the distance... Until next time lovelies! Aki xxxx
