I. Fairy Moe Moe Grey


I love grey lenses and these lenses just looked so vibrant in pictures, so I just had to have them. I'm growing a little collection of grey lenses, if you hadn't noticed. Grey lenses are just my favorite color of lenses and I just want to try them all! I bought these lenses from an online site called Uniqso, which is where I've bought most of my lenses so far.




Uniqso always has such cute packaging. I always plan my orders so that I can have free standard shipping. They arrive usually in 3-4 weeks and always come with a tracking number. The lens containers are safely insulated within the boxes. I am a loyal customer to Uniqso because they have great customer service and always respond quickly to my messages.


The brand I.Fairy is part of the larger, more well known brand Vassen. I. Fairy Moe Moe Grey has a base curve of 8.6 mm and a diameter of 16.2 mm, but I'm always skeptical of lenses that list diameters of greater than 16 mm. The water content is 55% and the replacement period is 12 months. These lenses are considered 2 tone. These lenses are available from plano to -8.50. The lenses cost $22.90 per pair. The Moe Moe series also comes in brown.



Color&Design
Although the color is officially grey, it actually looks more hazel or golden from afar. The golden color in the middle is very prominent while the grey is on the edges and barely noticeable. Although it isn't very grey, I still love it! The gold color is so opaque and definitely eye catching. I've had may complements on how pretty the color of my eyes are. The design is very much like a 3 tone and very natural. They also do not have a thick black limbal ring, which makes them more natural. The top picture is in natural sunlight while the bottom is with flash.



Enlargement
It does say 16.2mm but I don't believe that. I don't think they are even 15mm because they don't look as large as my Princess Mimi lenses or my Kimchi Bambi lenses. They are still quite enlarging though, I would say the diameter is about 14.5mm which gives a pretty natural enlargement to those with eyes like mine.


Comfort
These lenses are very comfortable. I wore them on my graduation day and they stayed comfortable throughout the whole thing. I've never had a problem with these lenses at all. I could definitely use them all day without issue. My eyes don't tend to be on the dry side to begin with so it is rare for me to have a problem with dryness. So if you have dryer eyes, expect some typical dryness around the 8 hour mark, most likely.



Overall
If you are looking for truly grey lenses, these aren't what you should get. However, as far as a brown color goes, these lenses have a beautiful color and opacity. It provides enlargement but not too much, great for minimal makeup looks and more casual wear. They are comfortable enough for everyday use. I would definitely recommend them to anyone interested.


Expect more circle lens reviews to come! I ordered quite a haul from Uniqso for my birthday. I ordered six lenses for only $80.45 with free shipping! Quite a steal, don't you think? If you plan on ordering from Uniqso, enter my friend's discount code "SUY10" for 10% off your purchase. With that discount code, my member points, and Uniqso's monthly promotions, I was able to get $30.50 off the original price of my order! Uniqso really is my go-to place for cheap circle lenses.
