Adult J-203 Review
I finally received my EOS Adult Series J-203 lenses in Grey a few days ago. I was super busy but am now on vacation so I had some time to take a few pics and upload them.
I ordered them from www.HoneyColor.com I placed the order on October 11,2010 and they were origionally supposed to arrive on October 26,2010. They arrived on Friday October 22,2010. Super quick. They were packaged very well and cared for very well.
They arrived in a crazy neat box branded with the websites name on it, and a super crazy contact lens case. I think the caps are hippos?? Please correct me if I'm wrong!
The vials were kept neat and secure in their packaging!
Since they were going to be worn after a quick rinse once removed from the vials I snapped a quick pic of them in them.
Lens out of the vial compared to Elegance Grey. They are very similar in tone and pattern. Adult Grey lens is slightly better imho.
Quick comparison of Elegance Grey and Adult J-203 Grey. They create a very similar result on the eyes. Despite Elegance having a smaller pupil hole I actually think the Adult J-203 looks more natural in person.
Just the Adult Series J-203 Grey lenses on my eyes. The last pic is a bit out of focus and the coloring is off due to my cameras inability to take a good picture in macro setting without a flash. They look as light, if not lighter than they do in the flash pics in person.
They came to $26.90 total for the lenses. $22.90 for the pair (which is annual. YAY!) and $4.00 for the shipping. They arrived quick and secure. They did have to be signed for but hey, what lenses don't now a days. They shipped from Singapore and have probably been the quickest I have received lenses. I have ordered within the US and had lenses take longer.
I highly recommend them. Super comfortable and great results! I will say though, that I feel these would look even better on dark brown eyes. I also love the fact that despite the large pattern of the lens, it appears so opaque that their is no halo'd leakage.
***Disclaimer***
I paid for these lenses with my own money. They were not sponsored of gifted to me in any way. I have no sponsership/partnership with the company www.honeycolor.com and was in no way gifted or compensated in any way to give a good review of their service or the lenses in this review.

EOS Adult Series J-203
I recently ordered a pair of EOS Adult Series J-203 in Grey. They are the new current pattern.In case some weren't aware the origional Adult lens pattern was discontinued. I am unsure why myself but can't help but think the inconsistancies of opacity in some batches and off references to colors of the lenses may play some part. While my Green Adult Lenses are no more I opted not ot order my origional shades. Their origional Green was a very seafoam aqua blue shade. Their new Green is well Green. Their Brown does look appealing but I still have a perfectly good rarely worn pair in the old pattern which I do like better tone wise. I opted for the Grey. Not only does the color look great, the new pattern does as well. I will post a review and pics as soon as the lenses arrive. They have shipped so now it's simply a matter of waiting. I do apologize but the site I ordered from didn't have any stock advertisement pics so I won't be posting any of those at this time.

The Eyes Of The Gods
The title says it all. One Goddess in particular comes to mind...VENUS.. The goddess of love. For centuries big, wide, innocent, childlike eyes have been seen asa doting image of being "lovestruck". Sometime ago lens manufacturer Marietta Vision developed a lens called Venus. These lenses aimed at giving "Goddess like eyes" are made with the intention of not only creating the illusion of a different eye color. They are made with the intent of creating big, doey, innocent, childlike, "lovestruck" eyes. These can be a breath of fresh air in a lens market where the main option for this effect is circle lenses. Which while they have their appeal don't necessarily create the most desired results. Venus lenses come in six different colors: Slate Grey, Pacific Blue, Ice Blue, Leaf Green, Violet, and Amber. I have owned every shade with the exception of Violet and Pacific Blue. I currently however only have 3 shades in my collection....Slate Grey, Ice Blue and Amber.
Slate Grey:
Ice Blue: (One of my personal favorites from this line)
Amber:(The best lens of the line)
Amber is by far the most realistic shade of Amber I've ever seen in a lens. Unlike most Amber/Honey/Hazel lenses which simply look orange these actually look Amber. They also seem to blend wonderfully with a multitude of eye colors. I will be posting close up pictures of Amber soon. The lenses are reasonably priced at most online vendors. I personally recommend www.1-Save-On-Lens.com and http://Color-My-Eyes.com The latter actually sells them very cheap by the pair reguardless of the rx for each eye. They are sold as 3 month replacement lenses but can be worn for 12 months if cared for and worn responsibly. Unlike many circle lenses they are also readily available in corrective powers and ship quickly. Since they're made in the US they're also readily available in the US and Canada. (If you live in Canada it will cost more per lens but I would recommend www.1-Save-On-Lens.com as they have a Canadian branch and warehouse. You'll save on shipping and won't have to wait for them to be processed through customs). Sorry for the blah post. I will be doing another review soon on some recently discontinued disposable lenses. Stay tuned!

Elegant with Elegance:Light Blue
Well I am here with what is possibly my new Holy Grail lens...Unfortunatly it's been discontinued for over a year now. That is Elegance by Ciba Vision. I will bore you with the details of the branding in another post. In the mean time I will share my joy.
First things first..The close ups:
Full face shot's showing their awesomeness:
These are beyond gorgeous and captivating. They have rotated my previous holy grail lens (Natural Touch by Coopervision...also discontinued and to be reviewed shortly). I was very fortunate to snag a sealed, non expired pair of these in my perscription and am in awe of them. More pics and a better review will be coming soon. Stay tuned.

Brilliantly Blue....
Long time no write...I have had a crazy schedule and social life and have not had time to update lately...Can you tell I'm a king of run-on sentences?! I digress. I went out with some friends Saturday and decided to snap some photos after washing my face while getting ready. The lense I wore out have been frequently worn lately. They are FreshLook Colorblends in Brilliant Blue. They're one of three new colors from the Vibrant Views shades added to the line last year.
Sorry about the quality of the pics. I am neither a professional photographer nor am I an expert or owner in photoshop. They were comfortable, had decent visual aquity and got quite a few compliments so they did their job. That's really it for now..I have a more sophisticated review coming up soon so stay tuned!
