So.... I'm now averaging, like, one post a week. Ack. I have to pump up the quantity, yeah? Step one: post this review right now. 8) The lenses in this review were very kindly sponsored by LoveShoppingholics. (I have reviewed their service here, actually.)
(Rar--- my face looks huge, here. ; _ ; )
Enlargement: 8/10 These are listed at 15 mm, and for being the maximum DIA for circle lenses, they do not enlarge very much at all.
Colour/Design: 10/10 Love. Just pure love. These lenses are, as I had hoped, yellow. Or gold, if you prefer. They are rather opaque, but not fully so, like the EOS Dollyeye series is. Since they are not fully opaque, you sometimes see a glittery effect over a darker eye colour, where there are 'splits' in the lens colour, radiating from the center. I also get a gorgeous bit of a halo effect, sometimes. Unf.
Anyway, in some lighting, these lenses look positively yellow. In most lighting, though, they are an obvious sort of golden colour. Nothing quite too overwhelming, though, what with very occasional darker lines and streaks of orange-brown throughout. (Fairly visible in low light, too, for not being super-light nor completely opaque.)
(flash)
Comfort: 9.5/10 Most lenses from Fynale and Luxury Babe are made by Belmore, but some are OEMs from Vassen/Dueba. Whichever brand makes these, they are rather thin and super comfortable. (The water content is supposed to be 45%, so that likely plays a part.)
(Very srs bsns. Very.)
All in all, these turned out even better than I hoped for. It has been a while since I've gotten so excited over a pair of lenses. In fact, I've fallen so in love with the Luxury Babe 12 Browns that I've worn them almost every time I put in lenses over the past 2 weeks. Simply put, these are rather like a slightly more 'natural' pair of EOS Dollyeye Brown (which I also adored, and were my second pair of circle lenses ever). In three words, these are 'bold, but believable'. <33 (Or perhaps 'daring, but darling'...)
And here are the extra pics, as usual: One, Two, Three, Four, Five, Six, Seven, Eight, Nine, Ten, and Eleven.

And one more, for the road, because I like these lenses so damned much~. Toodles!
I wanted to choose these too, but I didn't see many reviews on them so I wasn't sure if the colors would stay true to their model photos or not. Your review reassured me that they are gorgeous! Thanks ^^
ReplyDeleteThose are really nice on you! They're really vibrant..but not so scarey vibrant like the dollyeye browns ..I wouldn't mind trying these in gray :)
ReplyDeleteGracias~. And oohh- this series'd look so nice on you~~. Enlargement AND colour-wise. C:
DeleteI wonder how light the grey is.... I can only remember that the pink is light, since I almost got those instead of the browns. Haha.
Ah, I've already eyed them since I love yellow lenses too <3 NEEEEEEED!
ReplyDeleteNiiceee. <33 Those Twilight Browns were amazing on you!
DeleteThese are definitely less intense. *jelly* It's actually why I kinda' got these: I have my eye on the Twilights but deeeefinitely can't afford 'em. Haha.
Someday they'll be yours! JUST BELIEVE IN IT!
DeletexD
The Luxury Babe 15 Browns also look yellow on most pics, have you already seen them? They seem to have an orangey tone to them which I think is nice!
Yup yup! I'm actually about to choose one of the lenses from that series, thanks to a sponsor, and the Brown is a top contender. ;P The Green and Grey (aka. Light Green are SO pretty, though.)
DeleteOh yesss, it looks like juicy fruity kiwi!! <3 ;_; (I'm eating kiwis right now, so that's all I can think about <.<...)
DeleteThe "pink" also looks interesting...not pink at all xD hope you get the chance to try them all for us!
They look more striking in picture than in the video, where they just give your eyes a lovely golden sheen. <3
ReplyDeleteYup yup: they do rather fall flat in video, compared to both pics and real life. o:
DeleteMeh. C'est la vie...
Gorgeous, they're such a bright shade of yellow!
ReplyDeleteAw yeah. 8) S'why I love them so. ; _ ;
DeleteWell, you made things difficult for me with this post! I need to find a good yellow/gold pair for a cosplay I'm doing and I just have no idea which to pick. I was contemplating Fynale J14 but I like how these look too..... hmmmmmmmmm
ReplyDeleteBwahaha~! >:D My job here is done, then! My desire is always to adda lens onto others Lens Wishlist. Haha.
Delete(P.S. I'd prolly pick the J-14s. If those are the ones I'm thinking of, then they're the Vassen Cloud nines that PParadise is selling, and their RL pics look phenomenal.)
One word: LOVE THEM! (well that was too actually!)
ReplyDeleteAhaha-- close enough, Kriz. Close enough. ;P
DeleteThese are beautiful! They slightly remind me of iFairy Crystals because from a fair distance they give off that similar effect.
ReplyDeleteAh-- I can totally see what you mean. o:
