Review: (CTK) Cute Flower (aka. Sunshine) Violet


Hola amigos~! :D  I'm back with a bunch of new reviews. First, we have this review for a pair of lenses that were super-kindly sponsored by Kitty Eye Contacts. (They're a fantastic US-based shop which I reviewed here.)

(Awkward hat and hair are awkward)

Enlargement: 8/10  These are 14.5 mm, but enlarge more closely to 14.2 mm lenses on me.



Colour/Design: 8/10  So this violet confuses me.  It is generally rather vibrant, but at some times it looks crazy light/pale. Which I like.  I just wish I knew which lighting(s) or how much light let it look super light!  On camera/film, they generally do. In real life? Not always. (Actually, the colour reminds me of my beloved G&G BT02 Violets.)

As for design, this is certainly an interesting one: it is an exact design replica of the Dreamcon ('Dreamcolor') Sunshine series. There is a scalloped sort of edge-- almost like flower petals-- and many tiny dots and designs inside. Nothing is too noticeable from a significant distance away, though, except for those big 'star'-type glyphs near the ring.

- Super/Hyper Pinky Violet vs. CTK Cute Flower Violet -


Comfort: 9/10  I've always wanted to try CTK lenses, and they turn out to be rather comfortable!


Overall? I have to admit, I ended up liking these way more than I thought I would. The violet is pleasantly vibrant, although not quite light enough for my high standards. Haha.  The design also grew on me a bit as I wore them.  I might actually keep these for a bit until I find another pair of lenses as fantastic as my soon-expiring Hyper Pinky Violets.


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

  6. I can see why you like them (they are vibrant - though I knew the second I saw them you'd want MOAR.) Also your hair is not awkward!
