I received a pair of contact lenses during the holidays from The Dolly Eye, an online store selling circle lenses, hair pieces, cosmetics and accesoires. The lenses name is “The Dolly Eye S-9 Series” and the color I received is grey.
The vials have a cute and girly design and are a bit smaller than the vials you normally get. The lenses came together with a simple lenscase, too.
The properties of the lenses is written on the web page of The Dolly Eye:
Two sterile daily wear soft contact lenses 45% methafilconA, 38% water, immersed in 0.9%buffered saline.
Lens technical details:
- Diameter: 15.0mm
- Water Content: 38%
- Base Curve: 8.6mm
- 3 months contact lenses
The design of the lenses looks really beautiful. It has some playful ornamental swirls in it. The border of the lenses is not straight but has a frayed design. I like the pattern, it is something special, compared to the standard, zwo colored lenses.
Let’s see how they look if you wear these lenses:
Design:
As I said above, I like the design of the lenses, because they are not as boring as the standard design for two colored lenses for example. Nevertheless these lenses look very artificial in flash photography. In natural light they look much better. Unfortunatelly, I think my eyecolor is too light for these, because they don’t blend in perfectly.
Comfort:
You can wear them a couple of hours, but they are not super comfy, probably because of the diameter.
Enlargement:
Enlargement is really huge since these lenses have a diameter of 15 mm! I have to say, that due to the design and the large diameter they do not blend in perfectly with my natural eye color. I think they will look much better on someone with darker brown or black eyes.
Shipping:
The package arrived quickly, but there was just a thick layer of paper around the vials for protection. I think bubble wrap would have been safer, although nothing happened anyway.
Did anyone try these lenses before? You can get them >>here<< for US$27.99. Thanks again for The Dolly Eye for sending me these lenses. Please have a look at their store:

Yes, I like the design, but it is nothing I could wear daily. But for a party I could imagine wearing these. thanks for commenting ♥
I never heard of these circle lenses but I honestly don't like the design/pattern because it doesn't look really natural close up qq I love the grey tone of it but the price is so high !! T__T But anyways, thank you for this review~

I agree, they are not natural. But I think they are quite good for gyaru make up and style if you are into that kind of style. I'm personally not, so I would prefer more natural lenses too. Nevertheless the design is special and beautiful in its own way. Thank you for commenting as ♥
Wow. Those are intense. xD I love the unnatural pattern, honestly. Very striking.
Thank you! I think these are nice for special occasions. I wouldn't wear them daily honestly :D
I had a small eye opening so every time I mistakenly choose the 15mm diameter or over, it feels uncomfortable in the eye.
Yes, I guess that's the problem with those contact lenses with a large diameter. Thanks for reading Mizu ♥
The design is so cute, making eyes look more bigger and dolly. They also fit on your eyes :) I'm using glasses and really want to try to use lenses but unfortunately my mom doesn't allow me :'(
Although they don't look natural but it's OK, since they make us cuter hoho xD it isn't wrong to try something 'different', is it?
