I tried taking photos of my eyes with my iPhone 6 but I just couldn't get the sharpness of a proper camera so, I took to the official mycosmeticlenses website and found the colours that matched (perfectly I might add!) the colour of my eyes before and after I inserted the contact lenses.
I'm not usually one for changing anything besides my hair colour, my nail colour and my style - which changes constantly, but I decided to try out Marnie's new contact lenses to see what it was like to actually have the eye colour I've always wanted!
Packaging:
The contact lenses arrived within one day of shipping and were packaged to perfection! Inside the package was a bottle of sterile saline solution (to clean the contact lenses), a contact lenses case, some instructions on how to clean and take care of them and a box containing the contact lenses (obviously).
Colour:
After struggling (but eventually succeeding) to stick the contact lenses in my eyeballs, I couldn't believe how amazing the colour was. The company definitely doesn't lie when they say that they look natural. They created a dramatic difference between my natural eye colour and the contact colour but, I could still see a hint of brown, which was perfect for me! As soon as my mum got home from, she noticed something was different about me but she couldn't pinpoint it. I pointed it out to her and she couldn't believe how natural and gorgeous they looked! (Not going to lie, I wish my eyes were naturally green - I was upset when I had to take the contact lenses out.)
Wear:
The only thing I'm going to disagree with the company on is that they're easy to put in. If you're someone like me who has never worn contact lenses before, using these coloured contacts might be a struggle for you. But with a little perseverance and patience, you'll have gorgeous eyes in no time! Of course after I managed to get them in, my eyes were a little sore and red but this irritation went away as the day went on.
Insertion:
Like I said, I struggled putting the contacts in, but just do what I did and YouTube videos on putting in contact lenses... There's thousands out there!
Overall, I am incredibly happy with the contact lenses. The colour is amazing, the range of colours is mind blowing - there's a huge selection to choose from and it's a fun way to spruce up your look if you're looking for a short term change (and by short term, I mean 8 hours a day).
I'll definitely be purchasing more contact lenses in the future. I couldn't be happier with the outcome!
