Dolly Eye - Ariale Blue

Natural Big Eyes Lenses - Dolly Eye - Ariale Blue

Item Details

Packaging: 4.5/5

They Come nicely packaged in a cute box. They come with a complimentary lens case.

Comfort: 4/5
They are comfortable and can be worn for a long time.

Color and Design: 4.5/5

The design is gorgeous. The diamond pattern shows through the white of your eye and looks really unique. The color is subtle enough to be worn for a less dramatic look and the pattern looks very wearable from far away. You don't really notice the diamond pattern unless you are up close.

Enlargement: 5/5

They are just large enough that they don't look too creepy. I think they are a good size.

Comfort: 3.5/5
They do not hurt my eyes, but they are noticeable and hard to get used to. They don't move out of place.

I love the way these lenses look! They look very similar to their photo on the website. However, I think the red is actually a bit brighter than it appears on the website. I love white lenses and manson lenses, so I really loved that these were white, but they had a unique twist to them! They make a big difference and instantly make me look creepy! >:)

Dolly Eye Blytheye Blue

Uniqso.com Contact Lens Review

Natural Big Eyes Lenses - Dolly Eye - Blytheye Blue

Item details

Price $17.90 usd
Manufacturer: Dolly Eye (EOS)
Diameter: 14.80mm
Water Content: 38%
Sold As: Per Pair, with a normal lens case
Base Curve: 8.60
Replacement Period: within 12 months
Available Power: 0 to -10.00, Check Stock List

Packaging: 3.5/5

Each lens is stored in a glass vial and wrapped in bubble wrap. Then, packaged in an adorable box and shipped in a bubble wrapped envelope. However, the vials are not easy to open. You have to take off the top plastic layer (which I had to use pliers to remove!) Then, there is a metal cap which has to be peeled off -I cut my finger on the metal! :( And underneath that there is a rubber cap which pops off. It is nice that they are packaged so tightly because you don't have to worry about the lenses being damaged during shipping. But I just wish they were easier to open! Each pair of lenses comes with a free case to store them in!

Comfort: 4/5

These lenses are sooooo comfortable! Usually when I wear lenses I can't wait to remove them, but not with these! The design does not alter my vision at all and I don't have any irritation. The reason I gave them a 4/5 is because my vision seems slightly foggy (not bad though! just not 100% clear. for example, the way you feel when wearing large false eyelashes.) But they are much better than any other lenses I have worn.

natural lighting

Color and Design: 4.5/5
Other than the black rim, the design looks pretty natural. The color is very vibrant and noticeable. I'm not sure how they would look on dark eyes. They give the "halo effect" where they are lighter around your actual iris because the white is showing through.

Enlargement: 5/5

They certainly do make my eyes look larger! I don't think they would look as good if they were any larger than they already are.
