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.


Before I really start, I try to either come up with a concept or look through various magazines I have for some ideas. I ask my self what kinda nails I'd like to sport like "What theme will I go for?" "What colour combinations?" and even length and nail shape style; 
oval, square, pointed, long, medium or short. 

I don't own a lot of colour polishes right now to do neon or pastel colours, partially because I just don't own anything of those colour schemes in my wardrobe!  

After deciding what I want to do, it is time to get the party started!!!!


I use nail form stickers mainly when I do my nails and nail tips when I'm being a little lazy.

Abstract design
 Nail length created, cleaned, smoothed and designed applied! If I do a design for my nails, I drop a bit of polish on my working space or on my plastic nail container bin and use that to dip my brush in. 


 I didn't have anything "cool" to hold, lol, and didn't want to grab my applesauce jar. hehehe.

I don't see a lot of posts of other people posting their nails up these days. Mainly face pix. Oh well.
