I'm on my graduating year in college so you can pretty much imagine how much I've had on my plate. I also had to prepare for my trip to Korea last week for a poster presentation of my thesis, so that was a hectic yet fun part of my hiatus as well.
But no worries! I'm back. This post is long overdue and I owe it to my wonderful sponsor from Dull to Doll to have this post up! Especially considering it's these lenses that I used almost everyday on my trip to Korea.
Yehp! These lenses from EOS have become one of my biggest faves. The Natural Series of EOS is one I've been eyeing for a while now (no pun intended). I think I've mentioned a while back that though I appreciate enlargement, I'm not entirely fond of it for lenses I like wearing on a day-to-day basis. So these lenses in V304 3-Tone Grey are absolutely perfect when you want to add that depth to your eyes without too much enlargement.
Miss Val from Dull to Doll was kind enough to send me these lenses for review and they were packaged so cutely and came safe to my doorstep :)
Enlargement
These lenses are 14.2 mm in diameter, which is still larger than the average iris, so while it's the best for dolly-eye enlargement, it's enough of an increase to make your eyes look more awake and lively :) So a small diameter isn't really a bad thing. It makes these lenses much easier to wear with even light makeup or no makeup at all :)
Color and Design
I'm totally in love with grey lenses lately and the 3-Tone design gives the eye a lot more depth. I wish tjat the brown in the center near the iris were a little daker so it would blend in more into my natural eye color, but other than that I love the color.
The design, however, like a lot of EOS lenses in general, is really pixel-y. So up close, the lenses look quite unnatural. From afar, however, the striated design looks very natural and people may even mistake you for being mixed-race because of the unique grey design ahaha. Because there is little to no limbal ring, it's also much less vampy and more wearable than most lenses.
Excuse my bushy brows in the above pic. I took these on different days and this was after my trip to Korea, not having been able to groom for awhile x_x
Comfort and Wear
These lenses are so-so when it comes to lenses. I don't have very sensitive eyes, so I was able to pull-off wearing these lenses for 8 hours (and even while enjoying some Korean BBQ), but I can definitely see these lenses being more drying and irritating for people with more sensitive eyes. I recommend a drop of Eye-Mo or two every other hour for better wear :)
So what do you guys think? Do you love these lenses?
