Circle Lenses


I was DYING to try these for the longest time... but the blogshops were all so confusing to order from so I didn't even bother with those... I've tried eBay... but they're not available there... then it donned on me... "DUH!!!!!! PACIFIC MALL!!" Actually, I didn't go there for the purpose of the lenses... but when I walked by one of several stores that supplied them I stood at the window and stared for a long time. Through blogshops they are $13-$20/pair plus shipping and they last up to one year. At PMall (which is an Asian Heritage mall ie. Fob City) they were $45/pair!!!!!!! >_< !!!!!!!! but as I kept scanning... they had $25/pairs available... the difference is... the cheaper ones last only 6 months... so technically, the $45 ones are ($10) cheaper overall. But I didn't want to commit and $25 just sounds so much cheaper lol


I picked up a hazel pair... they are actually really natural looking since they are so close to my original eye colour... i quite like them... with normal coloured contacts, the part for your pupil is usually so small that when you look through them, everything is so blurry... but with these... the part for the pupil is bigger (which helps with the illusion of larger eyes), letting more light in and not blocking your vision...


I think I might pick up another pair....

Hey Charlene-ann!
I don't really remember which store... but it's one of the ones against the wall (does that make sense?)
there are quite a few locations that carried it... there was also another location (same price) on the side of the glass window entrances? i think the north side? lol it's OPPOSITE the other wall... HAHAHA i'm sounding so confused.. sorry :(
as for prescription.. i'm not too sure... you can online.. i don't see why not in store... be aware though that you are buying them cosmetically and not from a professional eye-wear place

yep they are the angels - thanks for noticing =) i am waiting for my brown ones in the mail - they actually aren't that noticeable which disappointed me cuz i like to look like a barbie lol - my friend told me my eyes looked black from far away and didn't notice til i told her they were blue - i've tried so many of the different types too! the ones i paid $200 for were these black ones over a year and a half ago - and still no one ever noticed them =( my friends tell me its cuz i have big eyes for an asian that it doesn't make much of a difference

these are really dangerous for you if not fitted properly (which i'm assuming they weren't seeing as how you bought them at a mall for $25). also, you're prettier without them.
