Review: original (Angel Color) Bambi Sesame Grey

- original/Angel Color Bambi Sesame Grey vs. Geo Princess Mimi Grey -

No, you've not gone back in time. This is not my review of the Geo Princess Mimi (Sesame) Grey (WMM-305): this is a review of their original, smaller version: the (Angel Color) Bambi Sesame Grey (XKD-305).  (Yes, these are made by Geo, too.)  These I bought from a store on Rakuten. They were super costly, though, so I really only paid for the brand name. (The original Bambi series is also available in their OEM label from ColorLens4Less for much less $$. Why did I not buy from there? ; _ ;)

(Guh. Contouring fail...)

Enlargement: 8.5/10  For a 14.2 mm lens, these are really enlarging, I think. o.o

Colour/Design: 9/10 Yes, I say '8.5' and not '9' in the video for this rating, but... well... these totally grew on me over time.  I feel like these are a lot closer to the modeled pics on Angel Color. (Although those are still clearly edited for higher contrast/lightness and such.)  Compared to their larger version, the Princess Mimis, these are lighter.  

They both have a blue-toned grey, but the Princess Mimis have more grey area-- the extra few millimeters allow for a more extended grey section. Also, the original Bambi's colouring seems to come closer to the pupil. Otherwise, the Princess Mimi and Bambi series are fairly similar.

Comfort: 8.5/10 The longer I wore these, the clearer it became that these are the comfiest Geo lenses I have ever worn. <3

(Some days... I don't bother with contouring.)

(I am... an 'artist', now.)

All in all, these lenses just might get Geo back into my good graces. They are comfy, light-ish grey lens with a bold design. That is a recipe for success in my book: I'm a fan.  This is the Bambi series I was so excited for all those months ago. ♥

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

A Package from Japan? Oh my~!

(This is just a quick filler post between lens reviews.)

*le gasp*  It would seem that a certain package came in the mail this past week. o:   

Does anyone know what might be inside? 

 If you guessed that it is my replacement Swimmer Pink Rose headphones and the original/Angel Color Bambi Sesame Grey, then you are absolutely correct! :D

Alright, so I had to wait a month for the Bambi lenses after I actually ordered them as I did a pre-order on Rakuten. (Usually, I would have bought directly for Rakuten, but pre-orders are for Japan only, so I had to use a shopping service.) Once the pre-order was over and I requested shipping, it only took 4 days or so for me to get the parcel. <3

Speaking of shopping services, I used Celga. I've used them one or two times before, and I find that their fees are lower than some other, more popular services (*cough*Rinkya*cough*), and their customer service is pretty good. ♥  Plus, I got this adorable little gift/omake with my order!

I'll be reviewing the original/Angel Color Bambis next week~! (I have the Miss C Eye/Seeshell Cat Eye Grey review, and the EOS Cotton Grey reviews to post first, though.)

À bientôt~! ♥
