☾Review- Sclera-Lenses NEGATIVE Scleras☽

Hey guys! This review is for a pair of "Negative" sclera lenses from sclera-lenses.com! They were nice enough to sponsor me a pair and I'm here to tell you about them. 




I'm going to go ahead and say that after HOURS of endless searching this website has the CHEAPEST sclera lenses by a LARGE margin, lenses starting at around $79 USD.
If you use the discount code "spectre" you can get 10% off! That's definitely the best value for sclera lenses around.



This is the packaging the lenses came in! They come with an extra large case for the scleras. These contact lenses are a whopping 22mm in diameter, so make sure your eyes are large enough before investing in a pair. They have "Mini Scleras" for folks with smaller eyes! They are cheaper as well and a great alternative. 



Again, these are the "Negative" lenses. They make your eye appear almost "inverted"! These are definitely striking. They are also my first pair of my full sized sclera lenses. 

If you have never worn contact lenses, please do not waste your money on these just yet. I recommend getting REALLY skilled with applying lenses before you go for something this large, as you literally have to cover you entire visible eye and MORE with the lens. 


These are my eyes before inserting the lenses. This was taken in natural window lighting.


This is a close up of my scleras in window lighting. These lenses are DEFINITELY better for dark eyes, as you can occasionally see light eyes through the pupil hole.


This is what my eyes look like side by side, one sclera contact lens in and one out. As you can see, its nearly 100% full coverage.


This is a full face shot of the lenses. As you see, they are VERY striking and scary in my opinion. I'm basically in love with them. 

These lenses have a diameter of 22mm and a base curve of 11mm. They have a water content of 45% and are made of Polyhema.

☾Detailed Review☽



Look: ✖✖✖✖✖
These are sooooo awesome !! I really love the way these look. They freak everyone out and that's exactly what I like in a pair of FX lenses.


Feel: ✖✖✖
I can't compare these to any other sclera lenses, because these are my first full pair, but they are definitely less comfortable than regular lenses. Although they are a little drying at first, I've noticed as I've worn them a few times since receiving them that you DO get used to the feeling very fast. It's an acquired feeling, so to speak. I also have "tunnel vision", meaning that when I look around there in a small white border, although that isn't painful. Its just something you get used to.


Quality: ✖✖✖✖✖
For the price, I was a little weary of the quality, although I was pleasantly surprised to find that these contact lenses were just as nice and durable as any. 


Overall: ✖✖✖✖
I'm super excited to own a pair of these, and although they are much different than wearing regualr lenses, it's nothing I cant get used to or look past. As a costumer and aspiring FX artist, I REALLY hope to own more of these in the future.

Make sure to use the discount code "spectre" for 10% off if you purchase anything from Sclera-lenses.com!

Review- LensVillage Kimchi Maki Grey Lenses~

Hello! Today I'm going to be reviewing a pair of sponsored lenses by Lensvillage, and theyre called "Kimchi Maki Grey" lenses. I have never seen these lenses available on another site, so I was drawn to them immediately! 


As I mentioned in my last review for Lensvillage, they have phenomenal customer service!!


This is the packaging the lenses came in!! They come with cases and everything as well.


As you can see by their design in the case and viles, these lenses are extremely unique! The grey around the open pupil area in staggered, almost like a flower or something.
They are, as their name implies, grey, although they have orange chunks in them as well, along with a thick black ring around the entire contact lens.

These are my natural eyes in natural window lighting!


This is with both lenses in, photo taken in natural lighting. They give a really "puppy-like" effect!


This is a comparison of my eye and the lens side-by-side! 


Here's a full-face shot of me wearing the lenses! They appear much more natural than I assumed they would, given their very graphic design.

These are bigger than what I normally wear, although I like them and plan on wearing them often for casual occasions!
These come in prescription and have a water content of 55%! They are 15mm in diameter and the effect diameter is 16mm.
♥Detailed Review♥
Look: ♥♥♥
These are really cute and all, although I wish I would have chosen the gold lenses in the same line. The grey and orange just dont look very good to me. Other than that (which was my own choice) the actual graphics and design of these lenses is really cool!

Feel: ♥♥♥♥♥
These are very comfy for larger lenses! They don't seem to dry out quickly either, and I wore them for roughly 6 hours!

Quality: ♥♥♥♥♥
These are a very unique find and even though I would have chosen the other color, looking back, I'm still happy I have these. They are very interesting and there doesn't seem to be a quality issue at all.

Overall: ♥♥♥♥
These are comfortable, really cute looking and interesting! You should totally look in to getting a pair. Lensvillage is very underrated and they have a large selection of lenses you can't find at more popular stores!

~End~

Thank you so much Lensvillage for the opportunity!!

✖Review- LensVillage Kimchi Kiss Blue Lenses

Hey guys! I have a Lensvillage contact lens review for you today! The lenses I will be reviewing are called Kimchi Kiss Blue lenses! They are really graphic and large, so I'm excited to have some neat lenses for OOC wear.



They have great customer service and even sent me a pair of lenses complimentary! Thank you so much for the opportunity, Lensvillage!



Here's the packaging the lenses came in! I was super excited to receive a pair of surprise lenses as well!


Again, these lenses are Kimchi Kiss Blue and they come in a wide range of prescriptions! They are fairly large at 15mm but have an EFFECT diameter of 16mm! These were actually the pair I didn't choose, they were a surprise and I ended up loving them even more than the ones I chose! Haha.
These lenses are $19 USD and shipping is very reasonable! 
I love the graphic design in these! I would recommend these to anyone cosplaying somebody like Elsa from Frozen? The design looks like ice chills or something to me. The blue is vibrant enough to show up on light eyes, on darker eyes I'm not so sure how bright they would be, but the design would still add a mystical effect I think.


These are my eyes without anything in them in natural window lighting!


This is a photo of both contact lenses in! They are VERY large for my eye and super cute. I love them a lot?? I don't tend to like blue lenses but these are nice.


This is a comparison of my real eye and my eye with a lens in! As you can see the enlargement is massive. 
These just look really "cute" for what I usually go for, but I really like them!


I don't often wear cutesy stuff, but I think I'm going to try a lot more in the future. These are really great. 

✖In Depth Review✖

Look: ✖✖✖✖
I think I would like these lenses better if they were purple or grey, although aside from the color these lenses have a really beautiful swirly graphic design! I tend to like lenses that don't look very natural haha. The enlargement of these is also a bit out of my comfort zone, but I can live with it!

Feel: ✖✖✖✖✖
These are totally comfortable and I haven't experienced any problems with them drying up at all! The largeness doesn't effect the comfort. These feel great.

Quality: ✖✖✖✖
These seem to be of great quality! The detailed print is very smooth looking and there are no print malfunctions. The color is the only think I might pick on. They don't seem like they could show up on dark eyes.

Overall: ✖✖✖✖
I like these a lot! They're super comfy and cute. The design is my favorite aspect of them. 

~End~

Thank you again LensVillage for the awesome opportunity! Stay tuned for another LensVillage review soon.

☆Review- Camoeyes "HULK" Special FX Lenses

Hey guys! I took a couple of days off of reviewing because I did so many in a row, but I've got several reviews on the way now, starting today with a pair of special FX lenses by Camoeyes! These are different from the circle lenses I've reviewed in the past.


I hope this review helps you to consider buying from Camoeyes. The founder is really nice and great to work with, and is sure to provide awesome customer service.



This is the packaging these lenses came in! (I was sent two pairs, but this review is only for one of them.)


This is a photo of them inside the viles! It's weird. I thought they were going to be somewhat hard to notice because the greens are very light and translucent looking, although when I put them in they were super vibrant??

I chose these specifically because I plan on cosplaying a character named "Grell" from black butler, and they have really vibrantly green and yellowish eyes. These ended up being perfect!

These contact lenses are $24.99 USD and are sold in pairs! They last for around 90 days and no NOT run in prescription (sorry unu).


These are my eyes in natural window lighting with no contact lenses in!


These are both of my eyes in natural window lighting with the contacts in! They are INSANELY vibrant!! Please remember that these are NOT circle lenses, and do not enlarge your iris much, if any at all. They are meant for for shocking makeup looks or halloween related wear (not for looking "kawaii cute" lol)

Excuse my eyebrows, I was in cosplay prier to taking these photos lol.


This is a side by side comparison of my normal eye color and the contact lens! As you can see these are very opaque and SUPER green. Perfect for Reaper cosplayers.


I couldn't find the high-def full face selfies that I took in these lenses, but here is an Iphone selfie with me wearing them as Titan Eren!


☆In Depth Review☆


Fit: ☆☆☆☆☆
These fit my eyes perfectly, though they are smaller in diameter than I am used to. That said, they still cover my natural iris just fine, and they don't get dry quickly! These lenses are very comfy.


Look: ☆☆☆☆☆
 These are among the top 5 brightest lenses I own and I have a LOT of contact lenses haha. They are perfect for any character who has really eerily green eyes. They almost look UV reactive! 


Quality: ☆☆☆☆
These seem to be of pretty good quality. The printing all lines up and there doesn't seem to be any discoloration on either lens! The only discrepancy with quality I can mention is the "90 Day" lifespan, as most lenses on line have a 360 day span ( assuming they're only worn on occasion) but that's just picking.


Overall: ☆☆☆☆
These lenses are great and exactly was I was personally looking for! I'm sure they will get plenty of wear out of me.
