Circle lens review: Super Pinky Lenses

Hello!

I'm here for another circle lens review! This time it's from the brand Super Pinky.

I first tried super pink lenses when I was 20. I'm 22 now by the way. I have tried blue, green, wine red and lastly, violet from the Super Pinky brand. As usual, I bought them from Honey Color. Link: https://www.honeycolor.com/color-contact-lenses/popular-brands/super-pinky

For this review, I would be using the violet ones. I will also briefly talk about the other colors that I have tried and insert whatever pictures I can find. In general, I really like Super Pinky as you can probably tell from how many colors I've used already. Anyway, lets begin the review.

It comes in the typical glass vial as usual. Image taken from the honey color website.


It is 14.8mm in diameter and has 45% water content. Yearly wear.

This is how they look like in my case:


On one eye:

You can see how much bigger the lens is compared to me own iris size.

On both eyes:


With some eyeliner and falsies:

I'm using dolly wink lashes. Number 10 for the top lashes and number 14 for bottom lashes.

Full face:

I'm wearing nudestix in the shade belle in case you're wondering what's on my lips!

Design of lenses: 4/5
I really like the design of these. I think it's quite a natural design and looks really nice on the eyes.

Vividness: 4.5/5
Super Pinky lenses definitely show up very vividly! All of the colors I've tried already showed up really well. You can see for yourself in the pictures.

Eye enlargement: 5/5
These lenses are huge. They will make your eyes look huge. Plus because they are so vivid also, they will really make your eyes stand out.

Naturalness: 3.5/5
Violet is an unnatural color. Not gonna lie, when I first tried them on, I thought it looked weird on me. And because they make your eyes look so huge, eye makeup is kind of a must for these, otherwise it really looks weird. But once I got used to wearing violet, I no longer found it unnatural and sometimes all I do is curl my lashes when I have no time for makeup. I grew to really love having violet eyes. Blue is also really intense and not very natural but they also grew on me. Green was very natural and pretty on me. Wine red is unnatural of course but really unique; I loved it too.

Comfort: 4/5
Here is where the colors I've tried kind of defer. I found blue, green and violet to be comfortable. However, to me, Super Pinky lenses require getting used to. When I first started to wear a fresh pair, they can get uncomfortable after around 6 hours. But I feel like the more I wear them, the more comfortable they become. I can wear them for more than 12 hours once my eyes are used to them. Like I said before, I wear a pair of lenses at a time, so the current pair is worn daily. They only start to get uncomfortable after the usual 3 month mark and I threw out my violet ones after about 3 and half months of wear.

The only uncomfortable one for me was wine red, but I think I got a bad batch. The first time I wore them they were fine. But subsequently, whenever I tried to wear them again, the left lens would hurt my eye like crazy and I can't even have them on for more than 5 seconds. It hurts so much that I have to take them off immediately. It could be just a bad batch because the right side as completely fine. It was a shame though. Wine red was such an interesting color and I only got to wear it for 1 day. I did take pics though!

To sum up, Super Pinky is one of my favourite circle lens brands and I've already repurchased green and blue but haven't worn them yet. I also bought hazel and maybe I'll do a separate review for it when I get to it. Maybe I'll give wine red a chance again someday? And also try out grey! I really recommend this brand.

So now for the pictures! Bear in mind that these are pictures I dug out from the past few years so I was younger and didn't have much makeup on for some of the pictures. It's like a flashback of my past 3 years while looking through my pictures. Haha. I had fun looking through my old pictures for these. If you're wondering who that guy is in some of my pictures, he's my boyfriend. Enjoy!

Woah that's a lot of digging through old photos, but I hope I helped you to decide whether you want to get these lenses!

Love,
Mel
