(Feeling lazy? Watch the video review at the end of this post instead of reading.)
This is a review of Kitty Eye Contacts. Full disclosure: yes they sponsor me, but that does not mean I can't review their packaging, presentation, communication, and even shipping method(s).
No, they did not ask me to do a store review: I just think it would be nice to give some insight into their service level. Hopefully, this is helpful/informative.
Shipping Time
Kitty Eye Contacts is based in PA (Pennsylvania), USA. (The same state as me! And the lovely Anna, as well.) That being said, I was lucky enough to have the lenses delivered in less than a week. <3 As far as how long it took to ship out, the store owner did so in a very timely manner once all the details had been worked out. C:
[[ And as always, I have to say: it's very important that online
shoppers realize something about the ordering process from any website: a
shop does not control how quickly the post delivers a package. That
is, once a shop sends an item out, no matter what level of post it goes
through (express or standard), the time it takes to get to you is out of
their hands. ]]
The Box/Package
My items from Kitty Eye Contacts came in an envelope lined with bubble-wrap. There was also a little bit of paper packing in there. Additionally, the lenses were well-wrapped in even more bubble wrap. (Picture is under the pic of the envelope~.)
(These are the lens vials in their 2 or 3 layers of bubblewrap.)
The cases were not bubble-wrapped, but generally? I don't care if cases get bubble-wrapped since they aren't liable to break/shatter like lens vials are. Haha. So I was satisfied with the packaging/packing overall. :] Bubblewrap, more bubblewrap, and a bit of paper, too.
(All told, the lenses I received were the following: Komi Look 4d (Flower Petal) Green, Komi Look Leopard Grey, Cute Flower Violet, and OT Eye/Otoo Star Violet.)

So there you have it: the shipping was quick (as was the delivery) and my 'order' was fairly safely packaged. Communication? That was also great-- actually, Kitty Eye Contacts answered my questions faster than I could keep up. Haha. Their communication was phenomenal for me. (They even chat on YouTube [@ kittyeyecontacts].)
If you check out the website, you'll see several pages of lenses (mostly Vassen OEM series), jewelry, big glasses, sunglasses, and even wigs + hair extensions. @_@ Whew~!
Finally? They have free worldwide shipping! Haha. A lot of folks'll be jazzed about that. (It definitely balances out some of the pricier lenses.) So shoo! Go over to Kitty Eye Contacts and see if anything strikes your fancy!

Leopard Print! That's so cool! Definitely checking out this store, as well. One so close has to be good! Can't wait to see your reviews on these lenses!
Looks like an interesting store! It looked like they only had plano lenses, though I could be wrong. I may go message the owner. And this is completely random and doesn't really have anything to do with the review, but could you possibly take a photo of all the lenses you currently have, opened and unopened? I just think that would be an awesome photo, haha. <3
Oh god, I can't wait to see your upcoming reviews. From what I can tell I'm going to love them both! I love the rose cases they sent you, it's so different (and cute)!
