Review: G&G Xxtra Larger Hyper Size Circle Brown

Hello everyone!
Today, I will be reviewing G&G's Xxtra Larger Hyper Size Circle Brown.

Picture credit: https://www.pinkyparadise.com/
These are my first circle lenses! I purchased them from a tumblr shop called: Mochi-Shoppe
Mochi-Shoppe is a special store that provides really cheap circle lenses! You can purchase them through concealed cash or paypal. I really suggest you guys shop here because the prices are reduced by a lot~

Information:
Diameter: 14.5 mm
Water Content: 38%
Base Curve: 8.6mm / 8.9mm
Type: 1 year disposal

Price: 
$20+$2 shipping at Mochi-Shoppe
(Other places like PinkyParadise sell them for $26+$10 shipping! Yikes > n <)


The lenses come in the typical two vials with a rubber cap on top and the metal seal. Mochi-Shoppe bubble wrapped it securely and taped the enveloped (which was also lined with bubble wrap).



These lenses come in prescription as well as PLANO. (Yeah, I know I'm blind orz;;)



By the way, the flash picture isn't really flash. I just put my camera up to my really strong lamp light LOL ; u ; And sorry for the random bars in the flash picture. I don't know why, but my camera always does that when it gets close to lamp light... :<

Design:
★★★★☆ 4/5 stars
I think the design is super pretty but not noticeable! It reminds me of GEO's Grang Grang Choco lenses, which I initially wanted. To be honest, there actually isn't that much of a sparkly effect on your eyes, so it makes them look really natural. If you're looking for a lens that will make your eyes stand out, I don't recommend these lenses. These lenses just make your eyes appear larger, and nothing else.

Color:
★★★★☆ 4/5 stars
The color blends really well with the typical dark brown Asian eyes. Though it isn't the EXACT color of my eyes, it's really hard to tell that they're different colors. The color of these lenses are a tad bit darker than my natural eye color, which gives you a kind of creepy gaping eye effect L-LOL ;; 

Enlargement:
★★★★★ 5/5 stars
I give these lenses 5/5 stars for enlargement because they are HUGE. Not saying this is a good thing, because my eyes are puny, but seriously they take a up a lot of white space in my eyes o _ o When I initially inserted these lenses, I was so surprised because I looked really creepy!! You definitely need to wear a lot of makeup for this to look okay. I think it might have a 15 mm effect? Or maybe my eyes are just really really small ; u ; ...

Comfort:
★★★★★ 5/5 stars
Inserting these lenses were a piece of cake. They felt exactly like my normal contact lenses and didn't start to dry up until 6-8 hours after wearing them. I felt no discomfort while wearing these, other than a slight blur of vision when the lenses got dislocated from my cornea.

Overall, I give G&G Xxtra Larger Hyper Size Circle Brown a: ★★★★☆ 4/5 stars

These lenses are huge!! But they require a lot of makeup, which I don't wear on a normal basis. I like how they make my eyes really big, but I'm afraid that the effect is too much. I suppose you could wear this daily, but I think it will shock some people if you wear it randomly one day LOL ; u ; It looks natural if someone has never seen your natural eye size before, but it's definitely noticeable if people have seen it before? (If that makes sense? > n <)

Well, that's it!
Thank you for reading!! Have a nice day xoxo

  20. You're soo pretty! The contact lenses look nice, but I can't wear them. I have a never ending fear of poking my eyes out! Dx Also, you should've did a before and after picture, just to see how much bigger they made your eyes. I love seeing the difference. Lastly, I love your hair! ❥❥
