Hello everyone!
This is a REALLY LATE circle lens review drafted from July (4 months ago lol)...sponsored by Maplelens. Thank you!
They kindly offered to send me this pair of GEO Super Angel Gray XCM-215 for review purposes. Stick around 'till the end for a giveaway they're also hosting!

First off, let me tell you guys that Maplelens' customer service, shipping, pretty much everything, is AMAZING. You guys have probably already heard of them because of how popular they are with circle lens-buyers all over the world. Shipped with Fedex Express, this package reached me in under 72 hours. They're based in Malaysia, and I'm living in the US! Neat huh? Unfortunately, to receive this speedy shipping, you'll need to pay $10+ > n < (You receive free shipping with orders over $50, though!) The prices and variety of lenses really make up for the shipping charge. Please do check them out, if you haven't already!

This box and cute hippo lens case both came in a bubble wrapped bag which was also in the bubble wrapped Fedex envelope. Very secure! :D
The design on the actual lenses look a tiny bit different than the stock photo.
Design:
★★★★★ 5/5 stars
This design is one of the prettiest designs I've ever seen in circle lenses! It looks a bit like a sparkly flower. Though the design isn't too noticeable in the eye itself (unless you're in bright lighting), I still like looking at it when it's not in the eye (is that weird L-LOL?;;).
Color:
★★★★☆ 4/5 stars
The color is like a sexy, catty grey when worn. Though it isn't like a shockingly vibrant grey, it's like a shade lighter than the typical dark brown Asian eyes. So in a way, it does make your eyes pop! The color isn't anything you find in natural eyes, so don't wear this when you're going to a job interview or something e _ e
Enlargement:
★★★★★ 5/5 stars
This is my first pair of circle lenses that have a diameter of 14.8 mm (well, I only have three LOL). The thick ring on the outside definitely gives a dolly effect. I thought that these lenses would be huge because it's the biggest diameter that I've ever worn, but it's actually has the same size effect as my pair of G&G Xxtra Larger Hyper Size Circle Brown. The G&G pair only looked larger because it was a solid dark color, but these don't look as creepy because they actually have some color in them > u < These lenses are so big and unnatural that they are definitely NOT for daily wear. They'd be good with heavy ulzzang/gyaru makeup, and on special occasions.
Comfort:
★★★★★ 5/5 stars
These lenses are super comfy! Probably comfier than my NEO Dali Browns, which are the comfiest pair of lenses I own. After 6-8 hours of wear, it started to dry up, which is typical. The lens itself is pretty soft (if that makes sense?) and it's relatively thin so you can insert it with ease.
Overall, I give GEO Super Angel Gray XCM-215 a: ★★★★★ 5/5 stars
As you can see by surfing on the internet, these lenses are highly popular-- there are pictures and reviews left and right > u < I can surely say that I'm now a fan of these lenses! A small downside though is that since my eyes are super small, these lenses cover a good portion of my eyeball whites. Meaning, from far away, my eyes will look like two gaping black holes on my face o _ o!!
