Feelcon 30 Days Comfy Natural Circle Black Lens Review

Long time, no blog update!

I've been so busy with life, I forgot to blog it out w w w

But that's really not a good thing, now is it? ||orz

As of now,

I'm sitting at an airport terminal, typing away on my small Chromebook

I'm waiting to meet up with my group, then we'll head off to Germany

How fun

Anyway,

Here's a review on the black lenses I got back a while ago

I hope this makes up for my laziness this past month

These are the

Comfy Natural Circle Black lenses!

Both lenses

One lens

Information:

Color: Black

Base curve: 8.6mm

Diameter: 14.2mm

Water content: 55%

Duration: 1 month/30 days

Manufacturer/Company: Feelcon Lenses

Color and Design: 3/5

The design's pretty simple, as it's just there for a natural enlarging effect on eyes. I'd say that, although the lenses look pretty pixelated, they still blend in with my natural eye color and don't look like they are fake from afar. I've never had the problem of someone noticing that I was wearing circle lens... but maybe that's just me and the people I hang out with. The color of the lens are pretty dark, but not overwhelmingly black colored. That's perfect; I was looking for a natural circle lens, and I got it.

Enlargement: 2/5

These lens are supposed to look natural, so it's understandable that they do not enlarge my iris much. As you can see in the pictures, there is a slight enlargement that (to me at least) makes a pretty big difference. I can wear these lens out without makeup; it's really great, especially on days where I vegetate on the couch or in bed while browsing the internet on my smart phone.

Comfort: 4/5

Comfy Natural Circle lenses are pretty comfortable for me. I heard that the brown lenses weren't very good, so I avoided those and went for these. They have enough moisture to keep my eyes hydrated, so I don't have to use eye drops during the day. I can claim that they really are comfy, as the name tells me so.

Vision: 4/5

Since I have prescription, I usually test how well I can see with different lens. These ones are pretty good on clear vision. I don't have to squint to see things that are far away from me (I am very nearsighted). The only thing I wish it didn't do was slip from time to time, due to my off base curve of 8.3mm instead of the general 8.6mm. Other than that, it's pretty great at correcting my vision.

Overall: 3.75/5

I like these lens! They're really comfortable, natural, and a fun accessory to have. Since they correct my vision, I pretty much wear them daily and take them out once it hits the 8 hour mark. They are 11.99USD and monthlies, so they can be a little expensive... but not as much as the Freshlook Colorblends! Those drained my wallet. These Comfy lens give me some character and spunk, defining my natural eye color with the rim of black. Definitely, if you want a lens type that people won't notice then get these. They're worth it!

Here's the difference between the Comfy Black and my Fairy 1 day Chocolate lenses

I dyed my hair with Prettia! Now it's a pinkish brown color with blond tips

I love it!

Popping Candy Brown Lens Review

So, tonight

I'm doing a review of the

Popping Candy Brown Lens

One lens

Both

Up close and personal w w w

Information:

Color: Brown

Base curve: 8.6

Water content: 38~42%

Diameter: 14.5mm

Manufacturer: Dueba

Duration: 1 year/12 months

Design and Color: 4/5

The Popping Candy lenses looks just like the Neo Cosmo Glamour series, but they don't much of a soft outer ring as the Neo Cosmo ones do, which I personally prefer. They look stunning, though! The color shows up very well on my eye, changing my brown eyes into a hazelish amber color. It matches my hair color! The base curve is 8.6, so it was expected to slide around when I look around too fast because my base curve is measured at 8.3.

Enlargment: 3/5

Although they are labeled as 14.5mm lens, they look smaller than that. I would say they are more like 14.2mm when I wear them. It's not a problem, though! That means 0.3mm of the lens' edge is clear and has no color. I think it's a very smart design.

Comfort: 3.5/5

At first, after soaking them, they kind of stung a bit when I put them on. After soaking them for another day, I tried them again and they felt fine, but kept slipping. I think it takes a few days for lens to get used to the curvature of my eyes, or for my eye to get used to wearing the lens; either way, it needs progression, but that is my personal experience with all contact lens. Thankfully, after those few days, it was fine and they give me no problems. I can wear them for a full 8 hours without problems or need of eye drops. The lens are very thin and remind me of monthlies, but they're actually yearlies!

Vision: 4/5

I can see just fine with these lens. I don't wear my glasses over circle lens, so these lens really corrected my vision and I can see clearly. The only time it gets a little blurry (or when I see a double silhouette of something) is when I'm tired or I open my eyes too wide, causing the lens to slip downward.

Overall: 3.5/5

Popping Candy lenses are really amazing at changing eye color! I can see why so many models in oneegal/oneegyaru magazines like this type of pattern. They look stunning in photos as well!

They kind of make me look more mature..(?)

Thanks for reading this post!

Makeup Inspired by Hozumi Numajiri

Well, here's to another day of makeup testing w w

I'm really a fan of hostess Hozumi Numajiri

She has such a dramatic life story!!!

Hozumi Numajiri is an Agejo model for Koakuma Ageha Magazine

You can read more about her history here

So here I am attempting to recreate Hozumi's gorgeous face

Look at those roots... ||orz

And once I turn my face to another angle, I no longer look anything like her w w w

And here is a closeup of the makeup:

Surprisingly, I only used one pair of half top lashes

The rest of my lashes are coated with mascara!

I also had to use a stroke of eyelid glue because my right eyelid isn't being obedient today

Today's coordinate was a loose LOVE printed sweater and black felt skinny jeans

If you had one person to dress up or turn yourself into,

Who would it be?

(I look so different when I smile... it really changes my face)

Fairy 1day Natural Brown Lens Review

Well, everyone, here's another review on some lenses I have purchased recently!

This review is on:

Fairy 1 Day Natural Brown

I can't stress enough how much I love blister packages for circle lens!

One lens inserted (top image) and both lens (bottom image)

Information:

Color: Chocolate/Brown

Diameter: 14.2mm (stained/colored diameter: 13.3mm)

Water content: 38% ~ 42%

Base curve: 8.7mm

Manufacturer: Sincere Vision

Duration: Daily/ 1 day

Before I start, the Fairy Brand from Sincere Vision is one of the most popular lens in Japan, next to Tsubasa Masuwaka's Bambi series, Celebrity Eyes, AngelColor, Venus Eyes, and much more. They are available in monthlies as well as dailies. I prefer dailies because you can actually sleep with them on (but it's not recommended) and then chuck them after! The oxygen permeability is said to be better than regular circle lens.

Design and Color: 5/5

First, I have to say that the color of the lens match my natural eye color gorgeously! I was so surprised that they could look so natural. The design is simple; the design is a simple ring of color with soft spikes leading to the middle and stopping before the clear site where your pupil is supposed to be. It looks similar to the Hyper Circle lens in 14.2mm (but other websites state they are 14.5mm), but the pattern is much more defined. There are quite a few millimeters of clear area on the edge of the circle lens, so it never looks like your lens is slipping downward when you look up! They blend in very well with my natural eye color, which is two thumbs up for me!

Enlargement: 2/5

Although the lens are 14.2mm, the colored part only reaches to 13.3mm. This means that there is indeed a lot more clear space at the edge of the lens; it doesn't enlarge that much. These Fairy lenses are very natural looking, so it was expected to be subtly enlarging, but not enough to have HUGE eyes. This is a plus for me because I usually like to wear brown lenses without too much makeup or on days when I am feeling lazy.

Comfort: 5/5

Fairy lenses really live up to their claim! I could not feel them in my eye for the entire day. No eye drops were needed at all. The great part I liked about it was the fact that I didn't have to soak them in solution for 8 hours! The lenses are easy and ready to go, so you just open up the cute blister packages and pop them on! If you're in a rush, it's great to have.

Vision: 4/5

Now, this is a new part of reviewing! I'm actually going to rate how well I see with lens from now on.

I could see pretty clearly with these lens, but there were (and are) some times where they would make me see a little double of something. I think it is probably because my eye's base curve is 8.3 while the lens' curve is actually 8.7! If you have a base curve that is around 8.6 or higher, you shouldn't have any problems with the circle lens giving you double vision/silhouettes. Other than that, everything was crystal clear!

Overall: 4.5/5

I am so in love with these daily lenses! I have tried a few Fairy lens in the past, but the 1 day lens are very superior. The comfort level is great, the enlargement is very natural, and many people couldn't tell if I was wearing circle lens or not! Those who want to have natural lens, these would be for you!

Here's me doing some "advertisement" photos with the super cute packaging!

Thanks for reading my blog today. See you again!!

Feelcon Circle Lenses

I have received another pair of monthly Feelcon lenses

They are supposed to be in place for the New Bio lenses that were so highly praised about in previous years

Here are the lenses I got:

This type is called "Natural Black" in 14.2mm; the code says they are EO2.

Apparently, the company that manufactures these lenses is called SP&Eye Co., Ltd.

But I have not found any successful information on them besides a file on Docstoc

The file states the sales price and claims they are best selling in Thailand

Many other sites say their website is spnyeye.co.kr or feelconlens.com, but both domains have been closed down or are not available

I'm a little skeptical about these Feelcon lenses, actually

I had tried out their Comfy 30 Day Black lens (14.5mm) in the summertime, which seemed to be alright

I have heard that the Comfy 30 Day lens in brown are very uncomfortable, though!

If anyone has more information about the origin and history of Feelcon lens, I'd really appreciate knowing about it!

I'm a little scared that these might be fake lenses sold by a very well-known circle lens supplier...

Springtime, Getting Ready for Summertime!

I received some really cool things over the last week!

New double eyelid tape from Uniqso

And I also bought SOS Leg Panic in Daly City

I was actually picking up a bouquet of flowers for my friend when I saw the shop also selling this

So I decided to go ahead and buy it

I thought, "Hey, this can't hurt, right? I've always wanted slimmer legs!"

We'll see how the results turn out after a month.

And I also got these in the mail yesterday w w

I wanted to try out the Kira Kira series just to see if it was worth all the rave people have been giving it

They really do look gorgeous, too!

I'm really behind in blogging, but I'll try to keep up

April Fever!

It's been so busy this month!

Thankfully, I had some time to celebrate on April 13th~

April 13th was Homestuck day, so I dressed up as Roxy Lalonde

My outfit was bought from Yes Style back in 2012

Curling my hair was interesting because I had to spray it with hairspray first and use a straightening iron to make the curls instead

Nevertheless, I think it turned out OK.

My right eye did some strange double eyelid fold, so I just left it alone

Thankfully, I didn't have to fix it because it looked pretty alright in the photos! w w

And that's all for now!

When Auditioning For Egg and Ageha Magazine...

Always plan your schedule to be free for many years to come!

I forgot that I have to be away for a year

Therefore, I cannot model for any magazines this time

Too bad, huh?

Ageha and Egg Magazine are my favorites, but I can't participate in them just yet...

Oh well,

I just have to set modeling aside on the back burner for now

Here's some of my makeup I attempted at once again

I tried to apply it as cleanly as I could, so I'm quite happy with the amount of effort I put into this!

As you can see, my roots are showing pretty badly! I really need to get my hair redone.... orz

Again, I will always make this face until I somehow get over this faze (not really) w w w

So, I also did a closeup on my eyemake 

For this look, I had to put on all the makeup and lashes first,

Then I used eyelid glue (from Daiso) to make my eyelid crease really high!

Surprisingly, it stayed and didn't ruin my natural eyelid folds afterwards w w

It was a very happy makeup session

Would you rather take a chance to travel the world or to full-time model in a magazine?
