Crystal Lens Review: Opal Violet

Another review of a new lens from Cosmic Bytes Cosplay Shop

Brand: Crystal
Series: Opal
Color: Violet
Diameter: 14.5mm
Base Curve: 8.6mm
Span: 1 year

Here is how it looks when you put it on:

 

Without & With the Lens

Both eyes with lens
 I took the shot in front of a huge window and just using the natural light from outside.


Now this lens is just amazing. It's definitely better than my first Berry Lens: Diamond Violet. The color is more vibrant and enlargement is better. It looks like this is my natural eye color~

Comfort: 10/10
It feels just right in my eye. It is really easy to put in the eyes. You won't even notice it's there!

Color/ Design: 10/10
The color is vibrant. This is the first violet lens I got that actually appeared violet. With my dark natural eye color, it's really difficult to find the right contacts that would show it's color. Normally, it would just appear black...

Enlargement: 9/10
How large my eyes became is very visible. It's like it's not me. Although it is not overly enlarging like the 16mm's I think this is fitting enough. No overdramatic change whatsoever.

Overall: 10/10
A-M-A-Z-I-N-G. I got more than I paid for with this lens. I'm totally loving it.. :)


Crystal Lens Review: Aquamarine Bluish Green

Hi! One of the things I bought from Cosmic Bytes Cosplay Shop

Brand: Crystal Dolly Lens
Series: Aquamarine
Color: Bluish Green
Diameter: 14.2mm
Base Curve: 8.6mm
Span: 1 year


 As you can see, the lens' color when in the solution is quite light. Well, most contact lens are like that. I have dark brown eyes so I already assumed that the color would be darker when I put it on. Remember, what your normal eye color will affect the resulting color when you put your lens on. This is how it looks when applied:



And in bright light, it looks like this:


 I took this photo in front of a huge window with the natural light from outside as my only lighting. It doesn't make your eyes look much bigger but the color is definitely different from my normal eye color.


What I like about this lens is how it doesn't attract much attention unless you look really close. It's comfortable enough for me, just like my other lenses. It is much cheaper than big name brands like Geo and EOS, but I think the quality is comparable.

The one thing I don't quite like is how it gets stingy when you remove it. I still need to get used to wearing contacts I guess...

Here is my rating with consideration of the price for which I bought it:

Comfort: 8/10
You won't notice it's there but if you're not that used to wearing contacts, you'll need some time to adjust to this one. 

Color & Design: 9/10
It has a really natural look. The color is still visible when wearing and doesn't make you look photoshopped. But it will probably look a little different depending on your eye color.

Enlargement: --
It doesn't enlarge your eyes at all. This is a good thing for those who just want to experience a different eye color. On the other hand, if you want to have bigger eyes, try some other lens. 

Overall: 9/10
For a very low price, this lens is SUPERB! Almost half the price of Geo and EOS but still works similarly to those two. If you're doubtful of this brand and have the money to get well-known lens, then Geo and EOS is for you. But if you're a little short on funds, I recommend Crystal Dolly Lens.

Block Pic


Our Block Pictorial~ We're nearing graduation but we still can't relax...we have remaining issues in the college. I hope it'll all be able to work out soon. I don't want to disappoint those around me anymore. I already made them feel that way once and I'm not going to repeat it again...not this late in the game. Even though this block has its own shortcomings, misunderstandings, I'm still glad that I was able to spend my last year with them. I'll continue to do my best!!! WE SHALL GRADUATE THIS APRIL 12!
