Recently I received my first pair of circle lenses from Pinkyparadise. com and I decided to do a review on them. I got the Geo Angel Brown circle lens and I have to say I really like them! I was a little hesitant at first because all the pictures of people I've seen with circle lenses have these REALLY wide dolly eyes and I definitely didn't want that look. Also, to be quite honest I've never seen any African Americans wearing any so there was hesitation number 1 right there lol.
So I took the plunge thanks to the help of my friend Jana, and ordered a pair. I didn't want to put something in my eye that I had no knowledge about so I made sure I spent some time researching first (ALWAYS DO YOUR RESEARCH!). I ordered my lenses on December 1, and received them on December 5. I paid priority shipping ($15.00) so they came a little faster than normal being that the company is based in Malaysia. I soaked them for 12 hours before I wore them for the first time. In the beginning, maybe the first 2 minutes, they kind of felt weird in my eyes since the size was 14.2mm (my normal ones are 14.0, but I got used to it within 5 minutes at the most. I wore them for a total of 14 hours and then took them off (it was a LONNNNGGG night). I have to say that within 15 minutes of being in public I had compliments from a number of people, who couldn't figure out what was different about me but said I looked cute :)
I wasn't able to get full sunlight base pictures because there has been like little to no sunlight this weekend but I did get pictures in different lighting settings. Overall I would give these contacts a 9/10 on comfortability. I can not give a full 10 because around the 8 hour mark my eyes did to start to hurt but I don't know if it was because I was tired or not. When I did put them back in 30 minutes after that 8 hour mark my eyes were a little better. Appearance wise I give them a 10/10. I LOVE the way they look on me!! It's a subtle difference but it's enough for me. Definitely will be wearing these lenses a whole lot more!
