Lady Serpentine's Lair: Review: Geo Nudy Violet lenses

Today I will be reviewing the Geo Nudy lenses in Violet:

My natural eye color is a very dark brown, and I have been looking for a lens to make them look lavender-blue. I prefer lenses that look natural, as opposed to the dramatic dolly eye look. When I saw the Geo Nudy Violet lenses online, I thought they would be perfect. It has a pretty natural look to it, and the color a very soft pastel violet, not the bright purple so often seen in violet lenses.

I ordered these lenses from Solution-Lens.com.

The site is pretty easy to browse. You can search by color, brand, or you can select a series of lenses from a particular brand (i.e. Geo Super Nudy series). Their price is also very fair. Most pairs of lenses are $20 (including shipping), and if you buy 2 you get the third free. If you buy 5, you get 2 pairs free along with free express shipping.

They also host a monthly lens giveaway, and you don't have to buy lenses to enter. Just post the link on your website or blog:

After I placed my order, it only took about 10 days (real days, not business days) for my package to arrive.

As for the package, it was wrapped ever so carfully (and cutely) with lots of bubble wrap, cute little baskets to keep the vials safe, and stickers! Oh, such cute stickers (it’s the little things, yaknow?).

I was excited when I unwrapped my lenses and took them out of their vials. They were just the lovely shade I was looking for! Unfortunately, when I put them on my dark brown eyes, the color faded into a grayish-brown that is only slightly lighter than my normal color.

From a distance, the speckled pattern gives the illusion of shimmering, clear eyes. Up-close however, the speckles do kind of look like cataracts...

These are one of the most comfortable lenses I have tried. I don't feel any rough edges when I put them in, and they don't feel drying, even when I wear them for more than six hours. The unexpected surprise was the enlargement factor- for a lens of only 14.2mm, it really does a nice job of enlarging my irises. I love that it does this without an unnatural looking thick black limbal ring.

As I mentioned, I purchased these lenses from Solution-Lens.com, which I highly recommend. They have a great selection, great customer service, free shipping, and they ship out very quickly. I've ordered from them twice, and both my orders came in only 10 days.

They also host a permanent lens giveaway. Just post the link on your site to join:

To sum:

Color: 4/10
Design: 7/10
Comfort: 10/10
Enlargment: 8/10
Solution Lens.com: 10/10
Overall: 8/10

I recommend for someone who wants to add a slight shimmer to their eye color and enlarge their irises, but I do NOT recommend this lens to someone who wants violet colored eyes.
