Soft Eyes - Geo Eyevelyn Brown Review


Specifications
Brand: Geo
Power Range: 0.00~ -7.50
Diameter: 14.2mm
Water Content: 40%
Base Curve: 8.6 mm
Life: Monthly
I bought these circle lens form GeoColouredLens! I bought them with my own money:)

Like with all contacts you have to be very careful! MAKE SURE YOU GET YOUR LENS PROPERLY FIT WITH YOUR OPTICIAN Your eyes are sensitive and with circle lens, because they cover a bigger surface on your eye, you have a higher chance of getting an infection and/or temporary to permanent eye damage if you don't take care of your lens or don't have a quality brand. You have to use a a reliable lens online store,  because there are so many knock-offs that can damage your eyes. 
 

Design: This is VERY natural! I like the natural design and how easily it blends into my eyes. I've drifted away from the less natural design and LOVE the seamless look! It makes my eyes pop without someone staring at my eyes trying to figure out what was going on hahaha. 
4/5

Comfort: SOOOOOO COMFORTABLE! With the higher water content they breathe so nicely as contact lens! They are quite soft as well. In fact they are so soft that sometimes they fold over and can be a little bit difficult to take out actually. 

 5/5

Enlargement: They are very natural sized! At 14.2 they aren't crazy big, more like a very nice accent. Its eye catching but in a natural way.
3/5 

Overall: I love these lens they are very soft and natural. Even with dry eyes I don't have very much of a problem. With the soft gradient on the lens as well it doesn't give too much of a halo effect or bother my vision. They are very nice lens I am a little bit disappointed that they are so expensive for monthly lens only. If you need prescription lens and want comfortable circle lens I'd suggest these.
4/5 




And then one from a far away view:


This was kind of fun to do! I haven't done gyaru makeup in a while and it was nice returning to my roots. I'm a little bit sad to see the change in the style and how the trends are more natural now. I love/miss dolly gyaru! 

I also recently got a ring light and trying to figure out how to really utilize it so I apologize about the brightness inconsistencies. Also this post is a little bit late from last week I'M SO SORRY! IVE BEEN BUSY WITH MIDTERMS

What do you think about these lens and/or change in gyaru makeup trends?

Currently in school I'm taking a business class. One of my teachers clients is KlioTea. Kliotea is a Greek Mountain Tea and for those of you who don't know Greek Mountain Tea has some AMAZING health benefits with high levels of antioxidants and photo-neutrients.  You can order KlioTea online and it ships within 2-4 days with FREE SHIPPING



Check out KlioTea it's really good and I enjoy it! It is a very light tea  

This week I will be posting twice. This post was actually a class assignment so in a few days I will be posting a new circle lens review!


I will be reviewing the Geo Eyevelyn lens! I know I've been posting a lot of reviews and I do want to make more diverse posts. I just realized that the lens have a 30 day expiration date so I wanted to make sure I reviewed them in time!

I promise I will start posting content as well!

YouTube - Masturbating

I frequently mention my YouTube channel, and how the content on that platform is different than my blogger. I talk more about social issues and what's on my mind - significantly less cute. I think this video is a pretty good idea of how it is different.

I know that I get a variety of different countries on my blogger and so I'm really curious to see what you guys have to say on the topic, though I know this might be a bit too direct for some of you. If you want to check out something more tame, look at my post on blogger last week reviewing the new Maybelline Poreless + Matte Fit Me foundation.



I hope you enjoy! Please watch it, like it and subscribe to support me, I'd really appreciate it!

Maybelline Poreless + Matte Fit Me Foundation Review

If you've read any of my makeup posts on my blog you'd get that I am a bit of a makeup snob. I love high end makeup and to be honest, don't really trust a lot of drugstore makeup other than mascara. I fear that, especially foundations are going to make me break out and turn me orange.

That being said I've had my eye on the Maybelline Fit Me foundation for a very long time. So, when my local drugstore was having a sale on the Maybelline Fit Me Matte and Poreless Foundation I gave in and bought it.



Let me just say I was pleasantly surprised!  It wasn't the best foundation in the world but it was one of the better ones I've tried



Packaging
 

Product Info

Brand: Maybelline
Name: Fit Me! Matte + Poreless
SPF: --
Amount: 30mL/1 oz
Price: $6 USD
Colour

I used colour 125 Nude Beige which to be honest was a little bit dark for me. I LOVE HOW YELLOW TONED IT IS! It's really rare to find a drugstore foundation that isn't super pink! 

The shades I normally wear:
MAC NC 120
Buxom Weightless - Dim The Light
Stila Light 
Dior 20
Chanel 30


as you can see blended out its a little bit dark for me. I apologize about the line on my wrist! I was wearing a hair tie on my wrist earlier! 

Coverage


 With no foundation, I am breaking out really badly right now because of stress ): I took these photos in natural light so I had to darken this photo just a little bit

 
 
With proper lighting and foundation! This photo is with only the foundation on


As you can see there is almost complete coverage. This comparison is with only one coat of foundation applied with the Sigma Flat Top brush. All of my discolouration and pimples are completely covered and my pores are almost invisible. 

Overall

On the skin it feels quite light even though the coverage is heavy. I don't recommend this for anyone with dry skin! I have normal to dry skin and can only use this foundation with a beauty oil applied first. If you have normal to oily skin this will probably be a dreamy foundation for you! If you're very oily you might want to pass on this as well.

Considering how cheap it was I really suggest this for anyone who has a normalish skin and looking for a nice foundation with a cheap price tag.

I am grateful that there are cheaper foundations suited for yellow toned people.
Rank 7/10


Makeup

I know its been a while since I posted any makeup shots so I also took some pictures of my makeup today.







I hope you like my look and review! If you have anything you want me to check out comment below! If you've tried this foundation and liked it or hated it let me know that as well 

If you don't want to wait another week for an update on my life check out my YouTube Channel ill be posting on there next week!

UPDATE: I TRIED 120 AND IT WAS MY PERFECT SHADE!
