Dolly Eye Puffy 3 Tone Grey


I was initially attracted to these lenses because they look exactly like Barbie Puffy 3 Tone Grey, which are lenses that I absolutely loved. I really wanted to see the difference between the two lenses and see which one I would like better. No, I did not make a mistake in my pictures. When I ordered them, I was sent these Belita lenses. I don't know if they are the same thing but the lenses seem to look the same.




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.




I do have a positive customer service story to tell. When I first got these lenses, I do believe one of them was defective. One lens just hurt so much on my eye even though I had cleaned it and well hydrated it overnight with solution. The other lens was just fine and very comfortable but that particular defective lens just hurt. When examined, there wasn't really anything wrong to be seen, mostly just felt. I sent Uniqso an email about the defective lens and they answered me the next day. They asked me to give them a picture of the defective lens cut in half, so I did. They replied that a replacement lens will be sent to me and after 3-4 weeks, my replacement lens arrived free of charge. I did not encounter any sort of hassle whatsoever. The new bottle they sent me is Dolly Eye, which is different from what they sent me the first time. I thought that was very weird but the lenses look exactly the same anyway.



The Dolly Eye brand is part of the bigger, better known brand EOS. The Dolly Eye Puffy 3 Tone Grey lenses have a base curve of 8.6 mm and a diameter of 14.5 mm. The water content is 38% and the replacement period is 12 months. These are considered 3 tone, obviously because it's part of the name. The price is $17.90 per pair, which is cheaper than most lenses. The lenses are available from plano to -10.00. The Dolly Eye Puffy 3 tone series is available in other colors such as blue, brown, green, pink, and violet.



Color&Design
The color is just gorgeous. It is pretty much the same as the Barbie Puffy 3 tone lenses that I have reviewed before. The gold colors in the middle blend seamlessly into the lighter grey. It does not ave a distinctive limbal ring but does have a darker grey outer rim. The color is so opaque on brown eyes. If you want a great color payoff, then these lenses are for you!


Enlargement
These are not the largest lenses around, nor do they have the most enlarging effect compared to some other lenses of the same diameter (14.5mm). In terms of enlargement, these are a lot more natural than other lenses. They can be worn naturally without makeup. They don't make me look all scary and alien-ish without makeup.


Comfort
These contacts are extremely comfortable. I could wear them all day without my eyes getting dry or starting to hurt. I have pretty long days so I would say on a typical school day, I wear them around 14 hours. Usually around the 14th hour, it does start to get dry, but that's normal.



Overall
These are perfect lenses for everyday wear. They give me such wonderful opaque color and enlargement without looking too unnatural. They look great with little to no makeup. They are perfect for making me look nice for my lazy days at school. It's kind of a dolly-without-really-trying look. These puffy lenses are definitely my favorite.


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.
