Lens Review ❤ i.Fairy ❤ Kirei Green Review ( ・ω・`)//~~

Sponsored Review

Hello Minna-san,

 Today, I'm going to review a pair of iFairy Kirei Green lenses that I received quite a while ago, kindly sponsored by ifairycon.com :D !! Lately I have been looking for vibrant green lenses and I thought Kirei green looks pretty nice ;D I mean, look at how they gleam in the promo picture!! xD 



Initially, I was quite skeptical about whether the promo picture will reflect how it looks in real life :( After all many lenses look nicer in the promo picture than in real life *sigh* . Looking at the design though, it has yellow inner ring which I have observed will help make the lens design look more vibrant in real life. 
So after musing over it for a while I submitted my choice to iFairycon and decided to review this pair of beauties ;D. iFairycon's package arrived bubble wrapped nicely soon after (they really work fast!! :D!!)  They've also included a cute lens case ;D (the "ears" on the lens case's caps makes it easier to open/close the case ;D)

I really am a sucker for pretty packaging >3< look at that pretty box!!


 ❤
Lenses bubble wrapped nicely :3 


 ❤
Now enough with my procrastination with the package hahaha xD 
Lets move on to the lenses ;D 

Lens Information
Brand: I.Fairy
Origin: South Korea
Water content: 55%
Diameter: 16.2mm

So, here's how the lenses look in its bottle packaging :D. You can already see the colours and some of the design :)
 ❤
And this is how they look in the lens case :D. The full design !!!


look really pretty right xD   (*‿*✿)
Without further ado , this is how  it looks  like when worn 



and here is how it looks under different lighting !!!


♥♡♥

Review :

Design ♥♥♥♥♡
I love the design! Before I tried the pair, I was actually really worried if the green will show. I kept asking myself, "The green looks really faint, will it show on brown eyes?" / "will the green be too transparent to counteract my dark eye colour?" / "will the green show at all?" After trying, I'd say I'm pretty happy :) The yellow ring does enhance the green colour in pictures and under window/camera lighting :). The design on the outer rim does show a bit and you can see a visible green ring just inside the limbus ring ;D (the outer black ring) 

Comfort ♥♥♥♥♡
As with most iFairy lenses, I find these pair pretty comfortable. My eyes adjusted pretty quickly and I wore it for 7-8 hours on my first day without any discomfort :) 

Enlargement ♥♥♥♥♡
These are a huge pair ;D !! iFairy is around 16,2mm if I'm not mistaken and yep, it does enlarge a lot ! ;D 

Colour ♥♥♥♡♡
The green does show fabulously on camera (even under shadowy lighting!) However, its not opaque (the green is slightly translucent) and thus , although the lucency does make it blend nicely with our natural eye colour , the green doesnt pop out .  :( Despite looking not too bright off camera, I am not sure why but it shows up pretty well on both phone camera and a DSLR ❤  !!! O3O and my friends can tell very clearly from a few meters away that I am wearing a pair of green lenses. So if you want a pair of vibrant green lenses that is suitable for casual wear, this is one to consider when you want it about 50% vibrant :3 . It pairs up nicely with gyaru eye make up ❤. But if you're looking for something GLARING / OPAQUE (ie.for cosplay , halloween etc) this is a good pair for photoshoot (because it shows well on camera :D) and you can consider it for events (it won't scream "GREEEEEEN" but will rather show a mellow gleaming kind of green ;D) Lastly, the green here veer more towards aqua green than grass green ,so some people may not expect it as it looks more like grass green on the promotinal picture - just an extra information as you may want to take this into account especially if you are a coser who seeks accuracy ;) 


In conclusion:
Will I buy it again ? 
Yep!!! I think it has a pretty gleam of green both for daily use and for photoshoots when you actually have proper lighting to bring out the colour in your lenses. So yep, I'll probably get a pair again after this pair becomes unusable just to stock up in case I need one pair for a shoot or just for casual wear ;D

Lens Review _ i Fairy Nova Green

Hi ,today I'll be reviewing iFairy 's Nova Green, 
followed by and intro to circle lenses for those who doesnt know about them ^^ 
For those who are using the, 
these may be fun trivia ^^
I'll be reviewing more of my current lenses in the next few days as an intro to my review of lenses sent by Uniqso, which is supposed to arrive in the next week or so


Do like my facebook page of you'd like to receive updates from me ;3
Arigato~~
Facebook - Teru-Terumii- <3 <3


if this doesnt work , there's a link on top left corner of this page ;3

So , back to Nova Green ^^



Thats how it looks like when taken under Natural Light , without flash :3

and this is how it looks like under bright light , without flash :3

[My future review will have pictures with flash , without flash and under natural light ^^ ]

I apologize that this post wont have it because my Nova Green has expired last week and I wouldnt want to wear it again deshou :3



The pattern , as promised
although colour does differ slightly :3 



Review :

Comfort ♥♥♥♥♡
Like my other ifairy lenses, they're quite comfortable despite their large size :D

Enlargement ♥♥♥♥♡
Love it ! Boasting a 16,2 mm diameter  isnt for nothing :3 
However , abased on personal knowledge and experience ,  do note that you shouldnt wear these kind of lenses Every single day for extended period of time ^^ Let your eyes breathe a little :3

Colour ♥♥♥♡♡
The colour isnt as striking as I would have expected from the advertorial picture , and the pattern does have clear gaps in between where your true eye colour will show .
I find it natural while not being totally subtle , since the green colour is indeed visible :3 although if you really want a striking green , maybe iFairy's Jewel green will be more obvious :3




Now, the last part (more serious part)



Circle Lenses Trivia
What are circle lenses ?
here's the wiki definition :
also known as a big eye contact lens and circle lens, is a cosmetic contact lens that makes the eye's iris appear larger; this product originated from South Korea.
So far , most of my lenses (if not all) are South Korean made :3
They often comes in many many design , from pretty to unnaturally scary interesting  ^^
consider these :
(these are purely my opinions :3, I do have a preference to non-extreme looking lenses unless for cosplay purposes ) 
I love casper violet         , but Yuri Grey's pattern (up close seems a bit off for me :(  ) 


Are they vision corrective ?
They're available in both corrective and non corrective forms :3 

Are they safe ?
This is important !! I do strongly suggest that you NEVER , EVER purchase from dubious seller no matter how cheap they charge you compared to official sellers. Nowadays , there are many many non authentic lenses from China which is making its way through the market parading in look-alike bottles of iFairy , Vassen , Geo etc . 

The latest step iFairy has taken to tackle this is by adding hologram stickers on their packaging :
End point is , DONT buy if its too cheap, dubious etc , no hologram sticker :( 
if your eyes experience ANY discomfort at all / REDNESS / ITCH upon wearing them ,  please please please  IMMEDIATELY take them off,rise them again (because it may be debri , when your first round lens washing isnt clean enough ), and try again . IF it persists , take them off and dont wear them at all. They may be fake lenses !!!
Be especially cautious because circle lenses are often ordered online :( 

Only order from trusted sources !

In fact , FDA SG caught a batch of fake lenses contaminated with the potentially dangerous bacteria Pseudomonas aeruginosa 
(these bacteria commonly causes Soft-lenses-associated keratitis . Wiki them to know what else this bacteria can cause :( I'm not trying to scare you. I;m studying microbiology at school  as of now :(( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pseudomonas_aeruginosa )

Now , lets proceed to the 'a bit' scary part ;3 
Can I wear them every day ?
I advise you not to.

I personally only wear lenses for special occasion, events(cosplay etc) , about once or twice a week :3 . I've known people who wore them everyday without fail, but then again , do note that these people may not wear it the whole day (only a few hours everyday) . Otherwise, if you're wearing them everyday and 

The cornea (part of our eyes where the lenses rest on) relies on diffusion of Oxygen via air to 'breathe' . Wearing lenses for extended period of time may hamper oxygen transfer :( your eyes will feel strained and tired :( Even worse, yourn cornea may turn hypoxic , leading to decreased sight . 


Also , most circle lenses are for yearly use (meaning you can use them for up to one year after opening provided they're not damaged and you clean them regularly) . They're not as soft as daily lenses and prolonged use may lead to dry eyes --> leading to abrasion or minute scratching of the cornea .
