Overview of GEO Circle Lenses: Tearful Series

G'day everyone! I've been blogging like a maniac these days. I just really want to the overviews of the GEO lenses over and done with and hopefully it's helpful for everyone who's looking forward to make a purchase on GEO Circle Lenses.

If you haven't checked out my previous posts, please do:
I think this is the last post that I will do for the overview and will be about the Tearful Series.


GEO Tearful (CM-838 and CM-839)

This series is perhaps, a long-lost forgotten series. I'm sure it had its time when it was all popular and all, same thing applies to the black circle lenses.

Not many people know of this series, but this was my second pair of circle lenses from when I started off. I was lured by the name 'Tearful' which is suppose to make your eyes look 'teary', no doubt.

Unlike other series, this series comes in the most natural colours: brown and grey!
There's really not much to say about this series, however, for pictures, click here >

Analysing into the design.. this series consist of a black border/rim, as you see. However, the black rim in this series are NO where as harsh as the Angels. It's very subtle and not that attention-capturing when worn, so therefore, you should have nothing to worry about.

There's three slanting flares from the rims and this is suppose to make your eyes looks 'teary', I suppose. This is a very unique design and is alot different from other series. It's quite unexplainable, but this series makes your eyes look really cool!

Definitely not recommended for people who look for a cover-up of their eye colours. However, this series is definitely going to enhance your eyes quite naturally.

Now, I have this is Tearful Brown, and as you may know, my eyes are not the darkest out of all eyes... when wearing Tearful Brown, I can see that the slanted flares is quite light, therefore, I do NOT recommend Tearful Brown for you if you have a dark eye colour.

If you have a darker eye colour, I recommend gray! It's a fun colour that will compliment your eye color more, instead of contrasting! However, if you like brown, go ahead!

On the other hand, if you have lighter eyes, you can play with both! Hooray!

This series offer:
  • Subtle eye-enlargement
  • Natural eye-colour enhancement

This is an overview of GEO Tearful series. All products were bought by ME. This is NOT a sponsored post. Please consider that this is within my experience and opinions, therefore, it matters from people to people.


Like I said, there's really not much to say about this series.. However, if you have any questions, please leave a comment!

I dont think I've missed any series.. unless you want a review of the animation series LOL jokes.
Hope that this post was helpful for all your circle lenses junkies!

Overview of GEO Circle Lenses: Two-Tone Series + Three Tone (World) Series

After laying off a few posts about circle lenses, don't be lazy now!! :D

I've came up with this idea of overviewing GEO Circle Lenses. If you haven't checked out my previous posts, please do:
I think that I've made such a big accomplishment. Haha. I find that these posts, I've been so informative and including every teeny-tiny bit of information that you NEED to know, if you plan to make a purchase.

Today's post will be about about GEO 2-tones and GEO 3-tones.


GEO 2-tones (CM-72*)

The GEO 2-tone series is available in 5 different colours, the usual: purple, blue, green, brown and grey.


The GEO 2-tones consist of no black rim/border on the outside, nor does it offer much eye-enlargement within its own design.

I actually haven't ever had a chance to try out these lenses! I really wish I did though! Gahhh... I really can't tell you what the colours are like and anything else :(

What I can tell you is that.. these lenses SHOULD offer a natural look with no dolly-look & eye-enlargement. Why? Because these are the traits of 3-tones which is based on the same design, however with an extra tone (colour).



GEO 2-tones (CM-90*)

The usual, the GEO 3-tones is available in five different colours. This series is also known as the 'World Series' and probably most heard as the 'Tri-colours'. Sounds cool, hey?


The Tri-colour design differs to other series in many many ways! Let's state... this series:
  • has NO outer rim/border: therefore it does NOT make your eye looks too harsh! This means that it offers NO dolly-look. If you're looking for a dolly look, this is definitely not for you.
  • consist of three-tones in the design, hence its name '3-tones'. The design consist of a darker tone, a lighter tone and a common neutral brown/yellow across all 5 shades of the series.
  • consist of a yellowish-brown colour from the centre across ALL shades. Why? Because GEO/the designer believed that the brown from centre will look like the colour of your brown eyes slowly transiting to blue, purple, brown, etc. Because of this feature, many people believe that this series will offer the MOST natural look.
  • offers NOT MUCH enlargement. Not because it doesn't have a black rim. Not at all. The design just doesn't offer much enlargement AT ALL. If you're look for enlargement, this is not for you.
  • offers the MOST natural look.

In the end, this series offers:
- Natural look (NO eye-enlargement/dolly-look)

This is the easiest series to pull off without make-up. You definitely won't need defined eyes or anything like that. Nothing at all! Why? Because the it offers no eye-enlargement and the colours are SO subtle and easy to wear.


----------------------------------------------------------------
THIS POST ABOUT 3-TONES WILL NOT HAVE PICTURES AS I'VE ALREADY DONE A PREVIOUS REVIEW. I HAVE LINKED YOU THE POSTS.
----------------------------------------------------------------


Everything I know about this series:

*I have to say 3-tone Grey is the MOST popular pair of grey out of ALL series. I'm not sure how great is the colour's pay-off. But when you wear this, it will definitely show that you're wearing grey contacts! If you're searching for a natural lookin' grey, I recommend 2-tones and 3-tones grey! Raeview wore this pair in her latest video.

*Looking for a hazel-pair of contacts? 3-tone Brown is for you! I'm unsure how great the colour pay off is, but this is your hazel-eyes. Don't even bother with Angel Brown, Nudy Brown and Olive Brown if you're really looking for hazel-eyes. Do your research gals!

*Argh... 3-tone green! Here is my previous post of 3-tone Green. It definitely does have a great colour pay-off with minimum lighting. I do recommend if you're looking for a natural green. Not sure how this series will compete with other recent released series though.

*Tricolor Blue is my FAVOURITE! It offers such a NATURAL look! I can't stress over how natural it is! You won't see it with dull lighting, however it would look great in flash photography, dance lightings, sunlight and anything else with decent lighting! I love love love it! So natural. The colour isn't as light as Nudy Blue though. It's kind of dark. My previous post had a pic comparison between Tricolour & Nudy, etc.

*I'm not really sure about Tricolour Purple. I really have nothing to say! :$


Overview:
I do recommend this series if you're looking for the most natural look. Although circle lenses are meant to enlarge your eyes, this series kinda defeats the purpose. It offers VERY little eye-enlargement. I don't recommend if you're looking for an illusion of larger eyes.


Two-tones vs Three-tones
Although, 3-tones has the yellowish-brown in the centre of each colour lens.. I don't understand how it would offer more of a natural look. Each person has a different shade of brown eyes, not to mention that the yellowish-brown colour is so much lighter above average anyways. I don't see how it can blend into our natural eye colours. Do you get my drift?

So... two-tones or three-tones?
That's all totally up to you.

This is an overview of GEO 2-tone and 3-tone series. All products were bought by ME. This is NOT a sponsored post. Please consider that this is within my experience and opinions, therefore, it matters from people to people.


I'm afraid you haven't found this post so helpful. However, if any questions, please leave me a comment! Anything! Talk to me, my lovely readers! Lol :)

I think last & next up are the Tearful series! Has anyone even heard of them?

Overview of GEO Circle Lenses: Olive Series

Previously, I have posted about the Angel Series and the Nudy Series, so here is my analysis on the Olive Series.

I'm quite glad that I didn't put together ALL series into one post, else that'd be the longest essay/post I'll ever stumbled across and wrote.

So anyways, about the Olive series.


GEO Olive (OL-10*)

The GEO Olive Series is also most of the time known as the 'Wing Series'. In my last post, I forgot to mention to you that the Nudy Series is also sometimes known as the 'Nudy Quarters', but that should be fairly obvious.

Back to Olives, it initially came in four colours only. However, last year, they have released Olive Green to add to the collection which codes OL-103.


This series consist of a similar design to the Angels. They both have a rim/border and also rays coming out from their centre. However, the colour of the rim around each Olive design corresponds to the main colour itself. I'm not sure if that makes sense, I apologise for my super-duper bad English.

What I'm trying to say is that, Angel series ALL has a black rim, however, Olive Brown has a brown rim, Olive Purple has a purple rim and so on...

I really hope my English wasn't this terrible :(

I only have one pair from this series which is Olive Brown, so I really cannot tell you if other colours gives a great payoff or not and stuff like that. Reason for being is, when I sold GEO Lenses, my customers don't really look into the Olive series, mainly because the Angel, Nudy and Tri-colours are so much more wanted at the time. Adding to that, I didn't stock many Olives.

So here's my opinions and views on the Olive Brown, which you can take into consideration if you decide to purchase other colours, okay?

*Olive Brown (OL-104)

I really like this pair from the Olive Series. The light-brown colour on this particular pair matches my eyes so well, and I have fairly light eyes. I don't consider myself to have the darkest brown-eyed colour, however, not the lightest either. Probably some where in between the both. I love how this matches my eye colour, is comfortable to wear and offers me a VERY natural eye-enlargement.

Reason for it being not as harsh as the Angel series is for its lighter and more subtle colour and also having the frame around the design brown too makes it so much more wearable. I also LOVE that Olive Brown can be worn without makeup unlike other series [for my eye shape].

Also, as natural as it is, you surely WILL be able to spot it in flash photography and bright sunlight, just like any other pairs of contacts.

Flash photography

Outside/No direct sunlight

So I DO recommend Olive Brown for:
- People with lighter eyes who wants a natural eye-enlargement
- People with darker eyes who wants a some-what eye-enlargement + lighter coloured eyes. Keep in mind that if your eyes are darker, the lenses WILL show up on your eyes, so therefore, won't provide you the MOST natural, however, at least some-what natural.
- People who has brown eyes

I DO NOT recommend Olive Brown for:
- People who does NOT have brown eyes. I don't think that this series will give you a full coverage for your natural eye colour. Most likely, your natural eye colour will show up and it'll look funky that you have half-blue and brown eyes. So please take this into consideration.
- People with darker eyes who wants the same colour for their eyes, however, eye-enlarging at the same time.
- People who does NOT digg a natural look. Reason for listing this is because, some girls actually DO like to show people that they're wearing contacts. However, Olive Brown won't be the right pair for you if you have light eyes and want to show people that you're wearing contacts.


So overview of the series AGAIN!

*I have stated my experience with Olive Brown which is also known as Honey Wing.

*Olive Grey, on the other hand, is known as Ash Wing. Quite cool.

*Besides the two, there are no particular names for Blue, Green and Purple. And I do not know anything about the colour payoffs AT ALL.


Offers:
- Natural Eye Enlargement
- Semi-dolly look

Overview:
I personally LOVE Honey Wing to bits because it is SO natural on me, however, I haven't had a chance to try out other colours... 8(
Besides that, all recommendations and opinions are stated above. If compared to Angel Series, I DO prefer this more, because I'm not a gal who'd eyeliner and eyeshadow everyday 8(


This is an overview of GEO Olive/Wing Series. All products are bought by ME. This is NOT a sponsored post. Please consider that I have only tried Olive Brown/Honey Wing, so I cannot make a fair judgement over other colours of the series.

I apologise that the overview for this series is cut so short and not very informative! But afterall, if you're a girl who'd like the most natural light brown eyes, this is the pair you'd go for! I hope that helps you!

My next post will be either lip swatches, a review, nail tutorial or about skin! Tell me which one? Leave me a comment? Please tell me how this pic below looks! HAHA

Some people says its scary. Cool. Unique. Credits to KlaireDeLys.


Meanwhile, take care!

Overview of GEO Circle Lenses: Nudy Series

My last post was about GEO's Angel series > and today I'll be doing an overview on the Nudy series! Angel, Nudy and Tricolor (World/3-tone) is probably the most well known series by GEO because I don't know why.

Therefore, you'd probably find that posts about Angel, Nudy and Tricolor will be much longer! :D


GEO Nudy (CH-62*)
besides Nudy Golden Blue (CH-932)

The GEO Nudy series is available in 7 different colours (yes! Seven!): Violet/Purple, Blue, Green, Brown, Grey, Pink and least known, Golden Blue.


Unlike the Angel series, the Nudy series does NOT have a black rim around the edges! However, this does NOT mean that the Nudy design is smaller than the Angel design, when compared in diameter. Both series is 14.0mm in diameter. What I'm trying to say is, the design of the Nudies completely takes over the area of the black border, get it?

So for Nudies, the coloured pattern of each is what offers eye-enlargement, whereas, for the Angels, it's the black rim that's doin' the job.

Ok, so onto what the Nudies look like when worn (omg, they're starting so sound like a racial group). When worn, up close, you can see that my eyes look quite pixelated and often gives you a 'marble-effect' for your eyes.

If you examine closely into the design... Yes. It does consist of rays comin' out from the centre too which is similar to the Angels. However, the rays of the Nudies, are more subtle, therefore, making this series more wearable. There is also an extremely extremely thin black border around if you ask. However, this rim shows up to be really really soft and subtle when worn, so there's nothing to worry if you're not a fan of black rimmed circle lenses.

Also, for your information, I don't need to wear eyeliner for this, however I DO recommend a little mascara or at least, invisible lining OR tight lining. Keeping in mind that I have a normal-sized eye shape with double lids.

For color evaluations, ALL colours in this series has a GREAT payoff. Saying this, I mean, from a distance, you can definitely see the colour of the eyes, unlike the Angel series, where you can barely tell. But I'll outline anything that you need to know.

*Nudy Blue is my favourite. Hehehe you didn't need to know that, but okay :P I like it because it looks quite natural on me and I LOVE the color's payoff! Love!


Here's a close-up:



* For Nudy Purple, I will only be able to see it when close-ups. Not so much for a distance though. Surprisingly, this is how Nudy Purple turns out on camera. Like a pinkish-grey. But it's not like that at all IRL :/



*If you're looking for hazel eyes, don't try Nudy Brown. It just looks like pixelated brown eyes. Nothing like hazel. Read on to my next few posts and I'll mention which ones are hazel :D

*Nudy Grey is one of the most popular selling pair from this range, however, I don't recommend it. Because the colour payoff isn't THAT great. Of course you can see it, however, not to the point where it 'wows' me.

*I have never tried Nudy Pink, Nudy Green and Nudy Golden Blue, therefore there's nothing I could tell you about.


Offers:
- Eye enlargement
- Natural-dolly look


Overview:
I personally prefer this series over the Angel. I like how it gives suc ha great color payoff and it serves the idea of the Angel series, just as well. It also offers a dolly-look when worn, however, is more natural-looking. Therefore, I have written 'natural-dolly'. If you're up close, you can see the pixelation, however, it doesn't bother me really and there's nothing that I would complain about these lenses in flash photography.


This is an overview of GEO Nudy Series. GEO Nudy Blue and Nudy Purple, I have worn, however ALL other coloured pairs are comments I retrieved from my customers when I sold lenses. Besides their comments, I have seen them worn the pairs occasionally and these are my comments/opinions. Please consider that it matters from people to people due to a variety of factors such as eye colours.


I hope you found this post helpful and clears up your decisions to purchase GEO Nudy Series. I have NOT called this post a 'review' because a review would typically include the comfort and detailed features. In this post, I have outlined briefly about the colours and patterns.


Next post to come: the Olive series.

Overview of GEO Circle Lenses: Angel Series

So every beauty bloggers out there MUST know or at least, came across what circle lenses are. If not, read one of my very first posts HERE >

Now that you know what circle lenses are, let me introduce you to one of the most popular circle lens manufacturing companies, GEO Pty Ltd. You probably would know that I mention alot from this company in previous posts. Anything that you want to know about the company, I have already linked.

Today's post is going to be explaining the difference between fewer designs released by GEO, however, doens't include the recent released designs such as Berryholics or Hurricanes. I will be skimming through: Angel, Nudy, Two Tones, Tri-colour, Tearful and Olives (Wings).

Yes! Let's start!


GEO Angel (CM-83*)

The GEO Angel Series comes in five different colours. Basically, most series comes with 5 colours: purple, blue, green, brown and grey.


The Angel design consist of a black rim/border and has little rays shinin' out from the centre of the pupil. The rim/border designed is for the illusion of eye-enlargement. As stereotypical about Asians having small eyes, these rims offer an illusion of eye-enlargment and usually IS the key point of Circle Lenses. Saying this doesn't mean ALL circle lenses offer eye-enlargement.

In addition, the 'rays' coming out from the pupil makes this series quite 'harsh'. What I mean is that, when worn, it makes you look very 'angry'. It makes you look quite scary and alien-ish.

If you have small to normal eye size, without eyeliner, it will make your eyeballs look like it's popping out. Too big to be framed with just the size of our small-normal sized eyes. However, these are girls who can pull this off, but very fewer!

So I would only recommend this series to you, only if you wear eye makeup daily -- just because this series looks nicer if the eyes are more defined. And yes, I mean eyeliner, not just mascara... without eye makeup, the lens CAN look like it's too big for your eyes and yet, about to burst. Quite un-natural. Brrrrrr...

Argh! I hope that really makes sense! I'm SO bad at writing, really. Now onto each colour....

So out of the series, I have tried Angel Brown & Angel Blue.

*The colour is quite natural for Angel Brown, however, I still dislike the rays and rim which makes the who design quite un-natural. I used to wear this on school days with little mascara and it still made me look like a freak. So alien-ish. However, the colour of this pair shows up really well.

*Angel Blue is MUCH disappointing when I was looking for a blue which would stand out as much as it disappointed me. The colour showed up as a DARK blue which almost looked quite grey-black. The only times you would be able to see the blue is in flash photography or in bright sun light.

*Angel Purple, when worn on my friend shows up clearly as a dark purple. However, not too dark where you cannot see it. It's dark but you can still see it.

*Lots of people like Angel Grey and you can say that, it's most likely to be the top-selling pair from the whole series.

*Angel Green shows up with a decent colour, a little bit better than blue. However, still the same old, you can't see much unless you're up close.


Offers:
- Eye enlargement
- Dolly-look

Overview:
I don't personally don't like this series. As much as I look for a dolly look to wear on occasions, I don't like this because of the design. It made me looks angry! And sometimes, I can see the rays when wearing the circle lenses. What I mean is, in my vision, I could see little bit of the design... so yes. Quite weird.


This is an overview of GEO Angel Series. All product were bought by ME. This is NOT a sponsored post. Please consider that this is within my experience and opinions, therefore, it matters from people to people.

I hope you found this post helpful if you're looking into the GEO Angel series!
I apologise that there is no pictures and photos because my Angel Brown, I have thrown out! and Angel Blue, I have gave it away!


I will post about the Nudy series soon!

Review: GEO Conventional Soft Lenses

Yay! I've finally got my camera back! It's the same model - Sony Cybershot W310 in classy black :)
I had to travel to a few stores to find a black model :$ I'm so picky.. I know :(
Anyhows, will be doing a review for you today on GEO's Conventional Lenses that I have purchased quite a while back for my upcoming formal :)

--------------------------------
GEO Conventional Soft Contact Lenses

Lightly color tinted GEO soft contact lenses provide eyes with soft and excellent
feeling of wearing by using new thin and elastic lens material.

Color (tint) available: Blue & Aqua
Diameter: 14.00mm
Base Curve Radius: 8.40~8.60mm
C.T: 0.04~0.13mm
Water Content: 38~42%
Power Range: -1.00D ~ -15.00D
sourced from here >

---------------------------

You can order these at very fewer websites, however, I got mine from http://www.cclens.com.au/ and it was $40 + $8 shipping.

$40 is ALOT for a pair of GEO Circle Lenses. I think it's WAY too overpriced. However, formal was around the corner and I really needed to find a distributor in Australia who has my prescriptions and the pair I wanted in stock... so yup.

Anyways... here is my experience with the Conventional Soft Lenses...

I found them to be quite uncomfortable when I just put them on.. very uncomfortable. Not to the point where it irritate my eyes, dries my eyes or make them super-duper itchy.
However, when I put them on, my eyes felt really tired and uncomfortable. Every time I blink, it seems that I really can feel the lenses... so it's not that great when you just placed them in.

After about 1 hour, the lenses became more comfortable for me to wear. It didn't make my eyes feel tired at all which was great :)

I don't wear these lenses everyday, just because I don't think I need to wear them everyday. I only wear them when my friends and I get together for a game of COD (yes! Cod!), when I'm driving or occasionally when I go out late at night... just because my vision is SO bad at night.

And to make things worse, I lost my pair of glasses Y_____Y

Yes Y____Y So when I first put them on, they are quite uncomfortable, however it gets better after an hour or so. I could wear this for the whole day without having them drying my eyes out (unless I sleep).

On my formal day, I wore them from AT LEAST 12PM till 4AM the next day without having the feeling uncomfortable after the first hour. Though, on the bus home, I fell asleep and when I woke up, my contacts disappeared and it took a few too many blinks for it to show itself :S But that's normal right?

These conventional lenses are like circle lenses with 14.00mm diameter, however, they are clear.. so yup :)

Available in 2 tints: Blue & Aqua and lasts up till 1 year after unsealing the bottle.

For your info, pinkyparadise do not carry these in their product range [unfortunately].

That is my experience with the 'Conventional' contacts!

Hope that helped you guys!

Circle Lens: GEO Tricolor (3-TONE) Green

As promised! GEO Circle Lenses in 3-tone Tricolor Green (CM-903)! Like Tricolor Blue, it does little eye-enlargment, so definitely NOT recommended for the dolly-look, but it looks quite natural without flash. However, I find it to look a little bit haunting IN flash photography..

I'm not really a big fan of green. It's harder to pull off than blue. In my honest opinion, I think Asian girls can pull of blue easier than green, unless you have full eye make-up on of course.


These photos were taken on my sister and she loves this pair of circle lens.

Without flash, the green looks more natural and soft, IMO.

Here is what they look like in full person hehe :)


Hope you enjoyed this post!

GEO Circle Lenses: Olive Brown/Honey Wing

Havent been blogging in ages! I'm actually not suppose to be blogging but I miss it too much.. so here I am lol! I promised to blog about Tricolor Green, but then I just picked up Olive Brown, so I might as well.

Here are pics for Olive Brown which is also known as Honey Wing... Quite popular for its eye enlargement & natural colour.


Comparison

The brown almost blends in with my natural eye color without flash. My eyes aren't extremely dark, so for those with darker brown eyes, you'll probably find this pair to be a little light.


Too natural right?
But it might suit some of you if you're looking for the natural look.
This series is ALMOST similar to the Angel series, however, instead of having a black rim, the rim of the Olive series are softer and are paired with the main colour.
So I find that this series is much more natural, however, still offers a dolly look.
I really recommend this brown if you're looking for natural-dolly looking eyes!

My favourite pair of brown circle lenses over Nudy Brown and Angel Brown.
Hopes this help!
