Review: (Japan) Barbie Eye Super Nudy Pink


Hey! I finally took a break from schoolwork! :D  These lenses were super-kindly sponsored by the very new shop, Sugar Sandcastle! They are based in the USA and carry Vassen, Dueba, i.Fairy, Barbie Eye, Kimchi, and Beuberry lenses! (Yes, most of the brands are OEM Vassen lenses.<33)  ((They also have a sizable selection of accessories [usamimi, hair clips, bracelets, rings, etc.]))

And if you trawl the Soompi Circle Lens thread, you'll know this lovely shop owner, too, as the ever-helpful 1901.  ---  Anyway, on to the review!!



Enlargement:  9/10 Last I checked, these're 14.5 mm.  For that diameter, the enlargement is decent.


Colour/Design:  7.5/10  So the Barbie Eye 'brand' has been around for a while, and I'd seen enough advertisement and promo pics of this series to start an art gallery. Haha.  That being said, I really did expect the pink to be quite a bit more opaque.  The pink-- violet-tinted, yes-- is light, but it is so sparsely printed, that on my dark eyes, they seem translucent and dark. (In most lighting, anyway.) They do blend magnificently, though.

- (Japan) Barbie Eye Super Nudy Pink vs. Kimchi Bambi Pink -


Comfort: 9.5/10  Vassen/Dueba produces these, as I remember, and their lenses are generally very comfy.

(Srs bsns face, rite?)

All in all, I don't really know how I feel about these lenses.  They're definitely very elegant and sparkly and pretty.  The colour changes from a weak, violet-pink tint, to a lovely, soft sort of pinkish lavender, depending on lighting.  I even get a bit of a halo effect, sometimes.  It's just... not as dramatic as I usually prefer lenses.... I don't knoooowww, you guuuuuyyyssss~~~.  @_@

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

  4. they look pretty natural and blend in quite well with your dark eye colours. it isn't very eye catching though since it's not that dramatic but it's fairly nice :)

  5. The only thing I like about these is the blending. Unlike the Kimchi Bambis, there's no clear separation between fake and real, but wow - the Nudys are usually like super brightening and whatnot, why do these fail?
