Circle Lens Review!

Geo Nudy Grey Review


 Click for the Video version!


So, over the years, Geo Nudy lens have been my fave! I am not sure why I gravitated to that particular style. It has a very soft look to them and a halo effect when you shift your gaze over. I was new to coloured contact lens when I purchased my first pair in like '09. I didn't want to get brown or black because that was too normal, and I was a little too shy to purchase a really in your face colour! So I chose grey!

I also am very picky when it comes to circle lens selection if I don't have something in mind right away. Though I have tried some various other colours, I really like grey lens and Nudy Grey style the most for non "normal" days.

I stopped purchasing from my original lens carrier and decided to go with Maples Lens thanks to Pepa's suggestion. 
The lens are named Geo Super Nudy grey, priced at 18.90$USD, not including shipping.

Specs:
Diameter : 14.8mm
Water Content : 42%
Base Curve : 8.6mm
Life Span : 1 Year Disposal



They arrived pretty damned fast! About, 2 days after purchasing! WOWZERS. Most people, including yours truly, get lens about a week or two after purchasing and I've heard horror stories of people not getting their lens after like a month or so! Not having a long waiting time to get your coveted lens is a big plus for me!

I thought that these would be bigger than my older Nudy Lens, but appeared a tad smaller for whatever reason while in the animal soaking case.

The limbal ring is a lot darker than the other Nudy Lens type. I think this helps enhance the halo effect.

The top one is the Super Nudy, the bottom just Nudy. The Super Nudy has a smaller inner circle unfilled by colour than its counter part.

Regular Nudy on the left has a lighter and fainter edge and colour than the Super Nudy on the right.

I think I will keep Maples Lens bookmarked from now on. Their shipping was awesome and very unexpected.

Colour: 4/5  
Comfort: 4.5/5 
Design: 3.5/5 ( I like the pixelated design compared to some other circle lens lovers) It doesn't show up that much when you aren't super close to someone and it isn't that bright.
I think Super Nudy will be one of my on hand lenses. Love them so much!

Flirting!

I am all up for learning! Even when I should be sleeping. So I HAD to check this video out. They mentioned one thing that I did not understand before when it happened....





er... Changing the subject and walking away? Thats a part of flirting?? I missed a cue before? (>.>)  (<.<) it just seems bizarre not "be more interested in me".  Humans are weirdos~
I think I will need to amp up my flirting skills. I get misunderstood and misunderstand when people "flirt". Why not just make different coloured smoke signals instead? I think that is a better idea!

Maybe....

New Nail!

A new nail for a new month! This time, I wanted to go clear + a design instead of the usual glitter nails.


Nail station set up. I keep all my supplies that I will use over the next few hours close by. I have been doing gel nails for about a year or so instead of acrylics. Though they are said to be less strong than acrylics, I feel that they look a bit better. And for this project, they seem to come out a little clearer than acrylic solutions.

Hello August

Its a bit surprising that 2014 is more than half over now. 2015 will be on its way, and another year will have passed. It will almost be a year of being out of school come this December. Almost a full year of not being a student and enrolled in classes.

My friend is starting her year of living in Japan now. I look forward to seeing her blog updates and hoping that I too will be able to go on an adventure there.

I'm trying to keep up with post-college stuff, finding work, freelance, and trying to keep myself from drowning in thoughts and neglecting things and looking forward to things that make me happy. Idk, Some days I feel really ambitious, and the ideas and courage come bursting out. Some days, I get discouraged and feel like hikkomori-ing myself in my room for some days.

Its something I am trying to shake off for years now. Get some sort of balance going, keep up that momentum. But it never seems to last too long.

Buuuuut, I have been making and uploading a few new Youtube videos again. I got pretty inspired taking in new music, videos, and also video suggestions from Ultra and Tairen. So I feel pretty good about that! I have some ideas I just need to get out of my head. Cooler ones than just make-up tutorials that I have been doing for a long time. Even though my latest video is a makeup tutorial, it has been sitting for months waiting to be finished. So I guess that's ok. lol

sidenote: There will be a video to piggyback off of my Youtube Welcome video eventually and a video that will be coming out in 16 days! I think it's cool and hope you all will like it too.

Though I like that I am making some new stuff here and there, I feel kind of guilty in a way. I should be focusing my time on job and career stuff. But... it's a part of the creative field... kinda. hahaha.

Lets my mind take a break from staring at words and corporate speak and whatnot.

I have been getting a lot of advice from coworkers, friends, and art buddies. Sometimes its a lot to take in and process with so many other ideas and what not, but I am grateful.
