Review: GEO Super Size Nudy Brown

(Sponsored)
Hello Princesses!

Today I'm going to be reviewing my newest set of lenses, the GEO Super Size Nudy Brown! These lenses were kindly provided for review by Lensflavors!


Label 1: Diameter 14.5mm | Base Curve 8.7mm
Label 2: Diameter 14.8mm | Base Curve 8.6mm
Our Price: $23.90
Water Content: 38%
Usage: 1 year disposal
Includes: One pair of lenses and one macaron lens case
I received these lenses in my current prescription (which has now increased - lame). They arrived in average time, just about three weeks which isn't super speedy, but they do offer free worldwide delivery!
I decided to review GEO lenses, not because I find them the most comfortable, but because they have a verification code to guarantee that the wee bits of plastic I stick in my eyes are actually genuinely and safely made.
These are safe! Thank goodness. Sticking things in my eyes makes me anxious.
I adore these lenses! They're a perfect enlargement for me (a little dolly, but not alien like) and the colour blends into my natural eye colour quite well! The right lens is quite comfortable, albeit slightly blurry. I'm blaming this on the fact that I had my prescription changed a couple of days ago, therefore these aren't as powerful as they need to be. The left lens however, is really blurry and scratchy.
The left lens is printed crooked. While this isn't actually damaging for your eyes, you can see it sitting badly on my iris in the above photo. You can see parts of the whites of my eye because the lens isn't sitting on the centre of my eye, you can also see that the coloured part of the lens is quite close to the pupil, which makes it a little hard to see.
It doesn't look like much of a big deal, but please make sure you inspect your lenses before you wear them for tiny rips or tears, uneven printing or flaws in the lens. You only get one pair of eyeballs, so treat them well!
What I Love
- Lovely enlargement (14.5mm)
- Genuine Products
- Ideal colour for my natural eyes
- Good, fair price
- Right lens is super comfy


What I Don't Love
- Faulty -0.75 lens
- Blurry in my dry eyes
- Slow shipping (though it is free!)
- Left lens is blurry and scratchy


Final Thoughts
Although I adore the colour and enlargement of these lenses, I really can't wear them because the left lens is just so blurry. I do need them in my updated prescription, but they are still much blurrier than my other old prescription lenses. The right lens is absolutely perfect, it's super comfortable and clear, so I'm really saddened that the left is not. 

It's important to note that although these lenses are from Lensflavors, it isn't their fault that the lens is faulty, as the lenses obviously come packaged straight from GEO. It's just a good reminder to check your lenses for faults, and that bloggers don't just get the cream of the crop in terms of products, we aren't out there to trick you! Honesty is the best policy.

I would definitely recommend these lenses for any Princesses looking for an innocent dolly eyed look without looking like an alien. They look natural(ish) on medium brown coloured eyes, and I'm sure they would look lovely on lighter and darker coloured eyes too! ^.^

Thank you so much to Lensflavors for sending these lenses to me for review!

  1. Love how dolly they make your eyes but it's a shame it's blurry when eyes are dry.. Don't think this would be great for my eyes as they dry out so quickly!

    1. The right lens was ok for dryness (not the best, but definitely not the worst I'd had!), I think you could find something better if you have very dry eyes (:

  2. It's a lil bit a pity that the left lents wan't good quality, but still...the colour is lovely. I like a lot this brown colour on you ^^
