You guys! I have so much good + exciting news! My lovely sister
started a blog (finally), I am putting together a giveaway,
and I'm leaving for vacation/to stay with family in a week. (I'll make a post about it soon.)
--- Anyway, these fancy little lenses were very nicely sponsored by Lens Village. (These lenses can be found as the 'Geo WI-A14' on their site~.)
[[ While I have you as my captive audience, actually, allow me to,
as usual plug the Lens Village Blog, which is chock full of lens reviews!
Actually.... so is Review
Circle Lens. So go! Go and read all the lens reviews. ]]

Enlargement: 9.5/10 At 15 mm,
these lenses look pretty darn big. Or they do on my eyes, anyway.
Colour/Design: 8/10 There
is not much to say about this series: it is a design replica of the
Vassen/i.Fairy Super Crystal (aka. Pretty Crystal) series' design.
The colour, though, is not one I am used to seeing from Geo. It is a
rather light and wan, golden brown, where most of this brand's brown lenses are darker. A green tint is almost visible in these, too. However, the pigment is not fully opaque, so although the
colour is pale/light, it still looks somewhat 'weak' sometimes.
(Inside out, though? This lens is an
interesting, ghostly pale grey-green-yellow-brown. ...I accidentally put
one on inside out, as I do not actually wear lenses that way. Haha.)

- Luxury Babe 12 Brown vs. Geo Xtra Crystal Brown -
- Prodigurls Bvlgari Brown vs. Geo Xtra Crystal Brown) -
Comfort: 8.5/10 Tale as old as
time: Noxin's eyes do not like Geo lenses. :/ That being said, these
are of medium comfort to me, considering all the Geo lenses I have
worn. (Other folks find this brand just fine, though.)
Overall, this is one of those lenses that I have mixed feelings about. Typically, if a lens is a light, visible colour, I am all of a flutter. However, for some reason, I am not super fond of the Xtra Crystal Brown. Oddly enough, I think it might be the design that is throwing me off.
That is, with this design, and with Geo's usual brown pigment (often a darker + more subtle one), I expected a subtler lens all around. (Almost like the Grang Grang series: that it would add a sparkle to dark brown eyes.) Now I am trying to figure out if I like these lenses. @_@

Hmm I find these a little weird! Maybe it's the colour, they're more of a cream corn colour haha.
ReplyDeleteThe look kinda greenish/ grey to me. They don't look 15mm too - looks smaller. I like them on you, I think it suits with your hair colour :)
ReplyDeleteThese do appear more grey than brown especially next to the Luxury Babe.
ReplyDeleteI sort of like their design but I agree that the color is a little weird.I've seen reviews on the original I.Fairy version of these and the color seems different. Its just odd that this would be the brown version since the other colors in the original I.Fairy series seem so bright.
ReplyDeleteThey look nice, though they are pretty strange :0. I'll never understand why so many "brown" lenses are yellow though, lol.
ReplyDeleteThe brown is slightly different. Kind of a greenish grey tint to them, it isn't bad though imo :P
ReplyDeleteHi it's Ruth I was looking for your review on the dollyeye browns but can't find it. Do you remember where you purchased the dollyeye browns?
ReplyDeleteHey there! :] Yeah, back when I got my Dollyeye Browns, my blog wasn't really going yet. Haha.
DeleteAnd yep! I remember exactly where I bought my Dollyeyes... However, that was, like, 3 years ago, and the store has since closed. :[[
Luckily, the EOS Dollyeye series is one of the most popular series out there, so it's no problem finding places to buy 'em~.
My eyes also don't care for Geo lenses and I have to say...i'm not a huge fan of these. I can't quite specify why but....I just find them boring.
ReplyDeleteare the lenses sold at lens village based on US dollar? and where is the shop based in? i would really love to get a pair of decent lenses right now XD
ReplyDeleteHi dear! Would you like to follow my blog and my youtube channel? =) That would help me a lot, just take 1 minute of your life and help me out please :-) I'd really like to host up a giveaway as well!

I think it's a bit to the grey side too, but still looks lovely on you =)
ReplyDeleteGeo lenses are ok to my eyes not the smaller diameter range and the ones with lots of color tones =X
very strange color but i think they're nice. i kinda want them but i think all my friends would give me a hard time about wearing such an unnatural color, heh.
