In this post I'll be reviewing 2 pairs of lenses, both of them from:
Link to website:
A little bit of info about 'LoveShoppingHolics':
They have been selling lenses since 2008, and are run by a small group of people. They create a friendly, relaxed atmosphere for you to buy lenses, while still being very professional. (Plus, the website is soooo cute!)
Before I start with the review, I want to point out that everything I say is honest - but, hopefully, you didn't need telling that! >_<
This review has been requested sooooo much by people asking what lenses I've been wearing recently, so here it is!
The lenses arrived in pretty packaging..... good start!
Even more pretty packing! The lenses come in cute little boxes!
Included was a 'Thank You' card and two free cases! The cases are very good quality. You can tell if the lids are on properly if the animals (lids) are facing forwards. The cases are also so cute!

First I'll review the purple ones! People keep asking me about them, and requesting I review them - so here it is!
Origin: Korea
Diameter : 14.5mm
Water Content : 38%
Base Curve : 8.6mm
Life Span : 1 year disposal
I have been wearing these lenses a LOT lately! I recently changed my Facebook profile picture to one where I'm wearing these lenses:
The design is very simple and resembles clouds (hence the name). There isn't an incredible amount of detail (which is the only reason I haven't rated them higher). However, I assume that's what they were going for with the design - to give the lenses the simplicity and softness of clouds!
The black ring around the edge has little lines that seem to add a little 'something extra' to the lenses.
Taken in daylight:
The lenses are very bold and stand out a lot. I've had a lot of people mentioning my lenses (more than usual) whilst I've been out-and-about. It's usually a problem for me that lenses aren't bold enough. I don't know if it's because I have dark eyes or what. So I was very happy when these were noticeable!
These lenses aren't the best at enlarging, but that's great for if you don't want to look like an alien!
/\ Before and after /\
They are about the same comfort as most of my lenses. When I first wore these I found my eyes getting slightly more dryer than usual..... but, I don't know if that was because I was under the weather at the time!

It's always good to get more than one perspective for a review, so I asked Neton.
He rates these lenses a whopping 10/10!!!!! :
"I have given these a 10/10 because they really stand out. They cover up Lhouraii's brown eyes and change her eye colour completely. Purple really suits Lhouraii and it's one of my favourite colours for her to wear. The design is quite plain but that's good because it lets people focus more on the colour and enlarging effect."
Next I'll review the green ones! Well..... the 'brown' ones!
Origin: Korea
Diameter : 14.5mm
Water Content : 42%
Base Curve : 8.6mm
Life Span : 1 year disposal
Although these lenses are called 'brown', they are much more of a green colour! I was hoping when they arrived that they would be green and not brown! Yay! They were! Hahaha >_<
The name of them is so pretty too - 'Little Mermaid'! I think I might do a makeup tutorial on mermaid makeup and wear these lenses!
I've been wearing these the most recently, they go great with manba too:
The design is awesome! It really does remind me of mermaids!
It also reminds me of stained glass windows! The colour is really vibrant too!
I like the thick, black line around the outside of the lenses too! It gradually draws into the green to create lines. The lenses really stand out, which is great!
These lenses really do their job at enlarging the eyes!
These lenses are also about the same comfort as usual! Which is great, since they're very big and quite thick.
Netons opinion:
"The design is the best thing about these lenses, and the colour is really good. The lenses look very nature-like. Like a forest. The enlarging is really effective. The lenses didn't get a 10 because the colour is a little less prominent than the purple ones."
Would I recommend these lenses to you? Yes! Both pairs! I really love them both! It's hard to choose a favourite but I guess I would choose.......... the purple ones! It's a hard choice though! I only choose the purple ones over the green ones because of the colour! Both lenses combined would make like a super-hybrid-lens! Hahaha >_<
A big thank you to 'LoveShoppingHolics' for sending me these fantastic lenses!
