Colored Contacts: Review

Due to the fact that Anime Expo was right around the corner, I wanted to go all out with my outfits & I decided that for the first time I will purchase colored contacts!

So, that being said let us just go straight into the review~
 


The first pair I purchased & tried on were by the brand "i LOOK". I purchased them in the color Turquoise & it's diameter reads at 14.0 mm.
At first I was a bit skeptic in purchasing these, due to the fact that the container made it seem like it wasn't of the greatest quality, but as it turned out I was able to wear them comfortably for about 6+ hours the day of Anime Expo & when I first tried them on.
I was pretty content with this purchase & it also came with it's own contact case.

Here's what they looked like once they were on:
First time putting colored contacts on! (✪▽✪)♡♥♡ 

Overall, once I got the hang of it I was pretty content with my purchase & I would most certainly purchase colored contacts from this company again. 
9/10 



Now, for the second pair that I purchased!
Since I was cosplaying as Karuta from Inu x Boku SS, I needed to get a hold of pinkish-red contacts. To my dismay I couldn't quite find one the exact color but I opted in getting the color pink.

The name of the brand is "Kara" & it came with a Diameter of 14.5 mm. I didn't quite notice that at first & since I don't wear or use glasses I didn't pay much attention to that, I just bought it with high hopes that they would look good.
Sad to report that they we're even pink, they were like dark-ish red, & most importantly, they were too big in my eyes so they kept moving around & were overall very uncomfortable to wear.

i was pretty disheartened about that pair, & I probably won't buy from them in the near future. 
I couldn't take a photo because I couldn't stand having it in my eye so I took it out quickly.
 1/10 



If you do decide to purchase colored contacts please keep in mind:

 -If you're feeling unsure or want to be safe (because your eyes ares super important) consult a professional eye doctor.

 -If you start to feel your eyes getting irritated or if you start to feel discomfort/ pain, take them off asap!

 - Remove your lenses before going to bed.

 - Don't share your lenses!

 Don't use tap water to clean your lenses, there are specific eye drops to clean your lenses. For example, I bought the product: Opti-Free, which works wonderfully!

- Make sure your hands are clean & dry when you are deciding to put them in & when you decide to take them out.

 Try not to wear the lenses for more than 11+ hours.

Well, if there are any questions about either the lens or putting contacts in/out let me know & I'll get to you asap!
