(Review ★) EOS Ice Brown [Sponsored by LoveShoppingholics]


Hello everyone!
Today I have a sponsored circle lens review from LoveShoppingholics!
They were really generous for letting me to review this product~
Circle lens that I will be reviewing today is called EOS Ice Brown,
now I was excited about doing this review because I have read a review from my girl Misa
as she got her EOS Ice Grey colored one, and I wanted to see how the Brown one will look.

I was actually surprised as well as excited when LoveShoppingholics was telling me
that they are going to send me Brown lens, because as you guys may know
I just adore Brown lens!!

Now let's get to the review!






So this package took about couple weeks to get to me, and considering how this item was shipped out to me around Lunar New Year time, when most Asian countries are on vacations.
I thought it may take maybe one more week or so for me to receive it, but it arrived in time~!!
YAY!!!

So as you guys can see they send their package in bubble wrapped envelope~
But also it depends on the quantity of the items you order, which means they will send it in bigger and stronger package.





What I really love about LoveShoppingholics' package is that, they take their time in putting the items in adorable packages like this, to make you feel more special.
And not only that, they always remember to put "Thank You" card for you~



And if you are concerned about the safety of your lens, DO NOT WORRY!
Because LoveShoppingholics make sure that they place the lens bottles in a safely padded box, and bubble wrap them securely.




Package included my sponsored lens, free animal lens case and a thank you card~
When I purchased from LoveShoppingholics before, they sent the package in this most gorgeous red box with pretty ribbon, so I was looking forward to see what box I will receive this time ~~~






It's not shown, however, the box itself is actually padded with Styrofoam to make sure the lens is secure from delivery process.





(** Make sure to check out the lens before opening for tear and flaws)

DESCRIPTION
Diameter: 14.8 mm
Water Content: 38%
Base Curve: 8.8 mm
Usage: 1 Year
Price: 22.99 USD (LoveShoppingholics)

This lens comes in 6 colors:
Green, Violet, Pink, Grey, Brown, and Blue
I noticed from Misa's EOS Ice Grey review, that color loks really opaque / transparent, so I was little worried whether the color was going to show up on my dark brown eyes.

As you guys can see, rather than more darker brown, EOS Ice Brown has yellowish color with dark brown ring. I am glad the ring was really thin, because thin rings make your eyes to appear more natural when you wear the lens.

Base Curve and the Diameter of the lens is actually quite big (well bigger than most of the lens that I own)







As you can see, since the Diameter is quite big, you can see huge difference in size of the lens and my actual eye.


LIGHT TEST








HULA EFFECT & DOUGHNUT EFFECT TEST







WHAT IS DOUGHNUT EFFECT?
Doughnut Effect occurs when your pupil is smaller than the circle lens, so you can see the space between the lens and your eyes
Sometimes this could be the problem of the lens itself, but it is most likely have to do with smaller pupil.
For any circle lens or color lens, they print it in standard area.
And if your pupil is lot smaller than the average people, there can be lots of empty space between the colored area, and cause Doughnut Effect.
It is really hard to tell when it occurs!
To solve this issue, you can do it by selecting lens with similar size of printed area as your pupil.




Since the lens' Diameter is big, and the print is little bit transparent, you can see the space between my eye and the lens itself, caused by Doughnut Effect.
But no worries, you can't really see the space, unless you are looking really close to your eyes.

Also I barely felt any Hula Effect, maybe because Base Curve was little bit bigger, and fit my eyes really good. It almost felt like I am not even wearing any lens, even after 8 hours of wearing.
(Recommend to wear lens no longer than 5~6 hours)


OVERALL RATING
Comfort:  ★★★★★/★★★★★
Hula Effect:  ★★★★★/★★★★★
Doughnut Effect: ☆☆★★★/★★★★★
Color: ★★★★★/★★★★★
Design: ★★★★★/★★★★★
Enlargement: ★★★★★/★★★★★

Comfort get perfect score, because I wore this lens for 8 hours straight without having to put in any eye drops. It felt as if I am not wearing any lens at all!

Hula Effect gets perfect score as well, because the lens follow my eye movements really well. It stayed on as it supposed to be and didn't interfere with my vision.

Doughnut Effect gets 3 out of 5 because the lens design itself and the diameter shows up when I wear them.

Color get perfect score, since it is so bright it shows up on my dark brown eyes really well. Even without flash, you can see the color really well.

Design gets perfect score as well, since it gives that natural looking with the color pigments as well as the ring around it.

Enlargement gets perfect score too, since diameter of the lens is big it does make your eyes appear to be doll-like.
