Sugar Candy Hazel // Candy Jewel Brown


A review on a popular pair of lenses!

Sugar Candy Hazel // Candy Jewel Brown
Lens Info
Diameter: 14.5mm
Power Available: 0.00 to -10.00
Life Span: Yearly
Manufacturer: EOS
Made in Korea


My photos:
Indoor Lighting
 Natural Light
Warm Lighting
 Flash


Color&Design: 
The color is a true brown, there are no tints to the color as these lenses are a solid brown with a thick and defined black ring. The design is oh so simple yet the effect they give is a slight "jewel" effect. There isn't much to be said about these lenses in this area, very straight forward ^^ However, they are quite dark and usually appear like how the "indoor lighting" photo portray them, just slightly more brown.

Enlargement:  
Diameter: 14.5mm
These enlarge a lot for 14.5 lenses! The thick ring definitely is the cause of this! The enlargement effect would about the same as my 15mm ones :O

Comfort: 
At first, they seemed to be comfortable, a few hours later though, they began to dry out my eyes. The right lens started to bother me a bit, I think it may just be that one lens though, so it may not be like this for everyone. 

Overall: 
Not my cup of tea :( I know many looove these and I think those who wear it look adorable but for me, I don't seem to love the design on myself. Maybe it is because the limbal ring is too thick for my liking and the comfort not being so high. I must say though, that these are quite the classics, I have always wanted to try them! Hopefully one day I can come across a pair like these but with a thinner ring and like... 55% water content haha ^^
