It’s always such a lovely surprise when I get unexpected mail !
And even better when it’s from awesome mukuChu with new lenses for me to try out. I feel like a kid again opening them up, eager to see what colour and style I’ll be reviewing next *_* Aha, but .. enough about my childlike behaviour …
You can purchase them from mukuChu over HERE.
LENS USAGE: UP TO 1 YEAR
SHELF LIFE: 3 YEARS
MANUFACTURER / ORIGIN: SOUTH KOREA
B.C.: 8.6mm
DIAMETER: 14.20mm
WATER CONTENT: 38%
Colour: ♥♥♥♡♡ – They’re quite ..dark? and don’t show up that well against my original eye colour
Design: ♥♥♥♡♡ – These are quite average – normal black ring around it
Comfort: ♥♥♥♥♡ – These were quite comfortable – I wore them for about 4 hours and I couldn’t even feel them!
Enlargement: ♥♥♥♡♡ – These don’t seem very enlarging at all (maybe slight?) But, if you can see in the image above, there is quite an amount of a clear space around the lens which I am not a particular fan of.
Overall: ♥♥♥♡♡ – Incredibly average lenses but alright for an every day look :)

As you can tell, I’m not a major fan of these lenses – they’re very average and boring in my opinion.
This is just my own personal opinion, but I feel that if I am going to be bothered to wearing coloured contacts, I want there to be a noticeable difference? But then again, that is just me. For someone who is just looking for a subtle colour change with not much of an enlargement effect, then these would definitely be a good choice!
I also want to highlight how dark they look in this above picture! But, if you look at my previous post, they do seem to look quite light. However, I’m pretty sure this difference is solely due to different weather/lighting conditions and my camera’s inability to pick up on the colour. But still, I can’t ignore that these lenses do look pretty dark for gray lenses.
Would you choose a subtle or intense colour?

Hmm I think it makes your
eye a bit brighter, even
the color is dark.
And I agree, it’s not really
enlarging.
For a daily wear I think I
go for subtle, so this pair
of lenses would be a good
choice c:
For a holiday such as H’ween
I would go for a edgier look.
Like Sharingan eyes or something
like that. lol

Ah yes, they are brighter but not so much :(
And hahah Sharingan eyes would definitely not be a daily wear look :P
they allmost look natural (from a far away POV) coz they don’t seem to do anything dramatic to your eyes. I find that happens with a lot of grey lenses on dark eyes tho >< nonetheless, they would make good everyday lenses for the sake of wearing coloured lenses :D
Yeh! You can’t really ..notice them from tooo far away!
And hmm, maybe it’s the Asian dark eyes that just makes grey …dark :( ?
pretty! i actually really like these because i can never wear gray lenses without or with subtle makeup because they are too bold. I think i’ll try these out because they look sooo natural on you! :)

Ooooh, yeah these are actually really natural!
I think larger lenses require more “make up” to balance the bold look, but these are quite small so they’re fine! :)
I have these too and they are super dark and not enlarging :( But they are alright for everyday lenses if you want just a subtle effect.
Yeah :( Me like my bright and crazy contacts haha xP
Chanced upon your blog and enjoy reading it!
Yay thank you for reading! :)
These grey lenses are so pretty! I like how I can see your camera in the shots hahaa They do look subtle enough for every day use! I’m actually quite glad you stated your honest opinion about them being quite boring because it really might be a surprise for those considering to buy these and stumble upon this review :) I guess if I wore contacts, I’d wear a subtle colour for every day but just for random days, wear quite intense green ones or something :D
Ahaha /awkwardddd .. I was hoping no one noticed the camera reflections :P
Mm, green eyes are so pretty asfask ..if only I had naturally beautiful green eyes, then I wouldn’t have to worry about contacts at all ! Ahah
True! But I like colourful eyes *_*
so pretty Melludee! the color is subtle and I wold love to have these for myself.. but you’re right, the color and shade differes from light to light but I think that’s nice :)
