Review: Candy Nudy Sweet Grey (Sunny/Trendy Grey)


 Whew~! I'm having a crazy-eventful summer. @_@  (I love being on vacationnnnnn~.) Anyway, these lenses are kindly sponsored by Apple of Your Eyes (aka. Serenity Shop).

Enlargement: 7.5/10  These lenses are 14.5 mm, but like the Gossip Brown, are not super enlarging. (Perhaps due to the soft, brown ring instead of the usual bold, black.)



Colour/Design:  9/10  So from the start, my interest in the Trendy/Sunny series has been how very light all the colours seem, but even more so, the fact that the circle is brown and not black. (I really like that effect. It somehow softens a lens colour-- makes is more natural, too, I think.)  So when I tried these on, I was a bit sad to see that the grey isn't as light as they look in the advert pics. (They never are, though, really.)  Still, it's definitely a noticeable grey-- lighter than medium, and the brown ring is divine.

Comfort: 9/10  G&G/Dueba(/Vassen)-- which are all brands that Candy and Candylicious use-- are generally very comfy for me.



(You can tell this is pre-vacation: no tan yet!)

All in all, I definitely love these lenses. I'd been jonesing for these babies for ages Haha.  And having had to wait so long to try them was so worth it. (Absence really does make the heart grow fonder.)  It's a lighter shade of grey, with a very unique colour ring.  I kinda' want these lenses in brown next. C:<

 And here are the extra pics, as usual: One, Two, Three, Four, Five, and Six.

  1. Wow I wish u would have did this review before I ordered my lenses. These are gorgeous.

    O and I didn't get brown like I had originally planned, I decided to be a little more adventurous and got grey.

  3. The Brown ring has always been a turn off for me because it makes me think of contacts that have a too-small diameter? I love a good strong black ring. You make it look good though!

    quickie question: is this really 14.5mm? i checked out the site and it says 16mm# (unless i am reading it wrong): http://the-serenity-22.blogspot.com/search/label/Candylicious%20♥%20Nudy%20Sweet (first pics).
