In the Pursuit of Fabulous-Review of Barbie Forest Three Tone lenses from Uniqso

Hello lovelies!
   I am back again with another lens review this time of the Barbie Forest Three Toned Series from Uniqso while I am attempting to figure out Window's Movie editor for my first YouTube Video. So between the urge to rip my hair out during the editing process I wanted to do a review of these gorgeous lenses! I really love the Barbie Forest Three Toned series since not only is the quality amazing so the price which is an even bigger bang for your buck especially when you are on a beauty budget! They are current on sale for under ten dollars a pair (yup you heard me right UNDER TEN DOLLAR A PAIR) so snatch them up and look fabulous. But I know enough of my chatter you want to see the good stuff and the review...On to the pictures!

Enlargement -9 out of 10 bats
   These lenses enlarge quite nicely being 16.5 mm while they are not the largest or smallest lenses I have I think that they are right middle. They are large enough to make a difference however they aren't too big to make you appear to have strange alien eyes.

Color and Design -8.7 out of 10 bats
   These lenses are EXTREMELY natural looking. The three tones blend beautifully with your natural eye color (whatever it may be) and give you a nice large dolly eye look without being extremely obvious that you are wearing contacts. The colors are are very soft (as soft as you can get without venturing into pastels). As you can tell from the photos above that my natural eye color is a dark brown. The lighter color lenses (blue, violet and green) aren't as vivid as they would be with someone with lighter eyes. From a distance you can tell there is a slight color difference around the outer portion of my iris. The brown lens gives my dark brown eyes even more depth which I really like about them.

Comfort- 9 out of 10 bats
   Like all my Barbie lenses,these lenses are EXTREMELY comfortable. I can wear these lenses for 7 hours without any issue. However anything longer than that, I would keep eye drops handy since Circle lenses in general can dry out your eyes.

Overall-9 out of 10 bats
   These lenses are really gorgeous. The enlarge your eyes nicely without appearing unnatural.The three toned effect blends nicely in with your natural eye color without making it obvious that you are wearing contacts. These lenses are EXTREMELY natural looking so they can be worn everyday if you wanted. Like all Barbie lenses these lenses are SUPER comfortable can be worn for an extended period of time. Not to mention the added bonus that they are extremely affordable. So if you are looking for a natural looking lens, or if you are on a budget (like most of us are) or are new to circle lenses these are the perfect lenses for you.

In the Pursuit of Fabulous-Review of Barbie Gossip 3 Tones Violet

Hello lovelies!
   It appears that March is all ready upon us and I am back with another lens review this time of the Barbie Gossip 3 Tone lenses in Violet. I purchased these beautiful lenses from Uniqso and I got them yesterday. Needless to say that they are GORGEOUS! I couldn't wait to get them on. I opened them up immediately and let them soak in my solution overnight and put them on this morning. I really love violet lenses. They make me feel so glamorous like Elizabeth Taylor and her stunning natural purple eyes. I love watching her in old movies and I can't take my eyes off her. She was so beautiful and a complete diva and that is how I feel wearing purple lenses. But anyways on with the review and the picture of course.

Barbie Gossip 3 Tones Violet is a gorgeous natural looking color.

Enlargement- 9  out of 10 bats
  These lenses really make my eyes look big and I love that about them. People will notice the size difference even if they can't put their finger on it.

Color and Design- 9 out of 10 bats
  I really love the look of violet lenses as I mentioned earlier. They just scream glamorous to me. These lenses are pigmented enough to show up against my dark brown eyes which is always a good thing for us dark eyed beauties and with the three tones it makes a bit more natural looking. The color is subtle from a distance but noticeable.

Comfort- 9 out of 10 bats
   As I have mentioned before the Barbie lenses are the most comfortable lenses I own currently. I don't have issues with them taking time to "settle" on my eyes which may cause them to have hazy spots or the irritating floating lens syndrome which always happens to only one eye. Especially when I am in a hurry to get ready. I am able to just put them on and apply my makeup which is what I want in a lens. I have worn theses lenses for eight hours with no problems. Probably anything longer than that keep some eye drops handy.

Overall- 9 out of 10
    To put it simply, these lenses are simply fantastic. Not only do they enlarge your eyes, but they are extremely natural looking while doing it. The color and design stand up well against dark eyes and pigmented enough to be noticed from a distance. Finally comfort is key, they are excellent for long wear without drying your eyes out too much. So if you are looking for a gorgeous natural looking violet lenses these are perfect for you.

Until next time my dears...

In the Pursuit of Fabulous- Review of Uniqso

Hello my lovelies!
   As most of you may know, I used circle lenses a lot in the various looks I do. Several of you have asked where I purchased them. Since most of you are on a budget like I am, you want to spend your money at a company where you know that you will be taken care of. I worked several years in the "customer service industry", otherwise known as retail hell, and customer service is the most important factor when it comes to me purchasing something. While price does play a huge part in it, I would rather pay more for excellent customer service because with my luck, I will have something go wrong with the order (lost, wrong product, etc) and I will have to deal with it. So, in order to prevent anyone else having to go through Customer Service/Product hell I decided to also review the companies that I purchase from.

The honor of being review first is, Uniqso . They are one of the main companies I purchase my lenses from and they are simply fantastic. I have never had a problem with them and they go above and beyond with their customer service. For instance, around Christmas time they had a buy one get one free sale going on. For some reason my browser/computer was not allowing me to place an order. So I contact Lee lee at Uniqso and told her about my issue. She was wonderful enough to take my order via email and send a Paypal invoice for it so that I could still get the lenses that I wanted for the sale. I can't tell you the last time that happened. I can't stand contacting a company and never hearing from them.


Affordability- 9.5 out of 10 bats
   Uniqso has an amazing rewards program where you can earn points and used them to take money off your order. You can gain points by doing reviews of the lenses they sell, referring friends and if you post pictures of yourself wearing their lenses on FB you can also have the chance with win points. They also have a monthly contest that if you enter (and you don't need a million points to redeem them). Uniqso also offers a monthly special promotion lens that you can get the pair for $9.80. Yes, a pair of lenses for under 10 dollars. You can't beat that.

Customer Service-10 out of 10 bats
   I never ever give a rating of 10 out of 10. I guess I am just cynical, I tend not to believe reviewers that constantly give 10 out 10. But, this company deserves it by going above and beyond with helping a customer. Lee Lee could have easily ignored my email but she didn't and that REALLY impressed me. Not only did place my order and send me an invoice, she also sent me another message that my order had shipped and gave me a tracking number. I can't ask for anything more.

Product Variety-9.5 out of 10 bats
   Uniqso offers a wide variety of lenses on their site. I hate jumping from site to site looking for a particular lens. While most sites have their selection broken down by color and brand, Uniqso goes above and beyond and even breaks it down by budget and size.

Overall- 9.8 out of 10 bats
  What can else can I say? This store is wonderful. They are extremely affordable with a great rewards program and a monthly promotion on a special set of lenses. Customer service is AMAZING and they have a wide arrange of lenses that are not only broken down by color, brand, budget and size. So if you are looking for a place to purchase quality lenses that will take care of you.

Until next my dears...

The Pursuit of Fabulous-Review of Natural Big Eyes Lenses - Dolly Eye - Pop C Light Violet

Hello my lovelies,
    I am back again with another circle lens review for you. This time I am reviewing Natural Big Eye Lenses Dolly Eye Pop C in Light Violet. I originally purchased these lenses from EyeCandy's Store but for some reason they are no longer in stock. AS I have stated before I have really dark brown eyes and while some lenses look amazing in the photos on the website they don't live up to their images when you get them out of their vials and into your eyes. While I am sure that those lenses may look jaw dropping amazing with people with lighter eyes not so much on us dark eyed ladies and gents. But not so with these lenses, you can tell the difference and the actual color from a distance. If you are looking for a lens that stands out in a crowd these lenses are for you. I love dramatic looking lenses and makeup so these were right up my alley.

Without flash on an overcast day

With flash., just look at the amazing color.

Enlargement- 8 out 10 bats

  These lovelies are huge. Large enough to draw attention to you but not too big that people will think that you are some strange alien from another planet. People will glance your way and do a double take. So be prepared. 

Color and Design- 8 out of 10 bats

   The color of these lenses are amazing. The pigmentation is dark enough to stand out against my dark eyes and up against my dying camera. They are really vibrant! If you are looking for a more subtle or natural violet eye, then these are not for you. They are quite dramatic and stunning. But then again, I love the strange and unusual.

Comfort- 7 out of 10 bats

   While these lenses are comfortable my eyes were being to tire and dry out after about six to seven hours. If you are thinking of wearing these beauties all day/night take some eye drops and your case in case they dry out too much.

Overall- 7 1/2 bats out of 10

    While I loved the color and enlargement of these amazing lenses, I wish they were a bit more comfortable for me to wear longer without drops. People will do a double take and stare at these lovely lenses since they are so striking and really draw attention to your eyes. I still can't rave enough about how pigmented they are to stand out from a distance on my dark eyes. So if you are looking for a gorgeous violet lens that will draw attention go out and purchase these.

It appears that after I composed this blog entry, my sad sick little camera has finally given up the ghost and died a horrible death. Which, I will say, is all for the best since it could no longer take decent close up pictures. So, since the camera gods have spoken, I will be purchasing a camera after the holidays and I will be back with better (and clearer) pictures and I will be revising the tutorial with new images and of course more reviews and tutorials. So have a wonderful holiday season and I will see you all in 2013. Until next time my dears...
