G-307 Gothic 3 Tones Violet Review

There are a lot of colors in this series and I happen to have the green, violet and turquoise ones. I have reviewed the green and turquoise ones before, and now it is time for the violets!
Diameter: 14.5mm
Life Span: Yearly
Power Available: 0.00 to -10.00
B.C: 8.8mm
Under the dollyeye label, manufactured by EOS

Color&Design: 
Surprisingly I liked these! Or it must be that I already expected these to be darker and more natural from my experience with the past two lenses in the gothic series. The violet is really soft and isn't the kind of purple you usually see on circle lenses, this is more pale and pastel. The design blends in well with my eyes and is quite natural aside from the color.

Enlargement:  
Diameter: 14.5mm
This kind of enlargement is the perfect one for me, personally. The enlargement isn't too noticeable yet the lenses do a good job subtly.

Comfort: 
If there was a half star, I'd rather give these 3.5. The reason being that these lenses actually have a base curve of 8.8mm opposed to the usual 8.6mm. Therefore the lenses are more curved and can feel slightly tight if 8.6mm fits well. As for dryness, these are quite average and eyedrops may be used for added comfort.

Overall: 
In the past, I gave the other lenses from this series a lower mark because of my disappointment in the color. However, as I was not expecting much from these, I was quite surprised! The color is something quite different from the typical violet lenses I see now and these are great for wearing out as a natural pair even though they are violet.



That's all for this review ^^

Color&Design: 
They really are an almond color! Or taupe if you want to get more technical with the color - a dark brown with a slight tint of grey. The design is really simple as you can see from the lens shot and the limbal ring is fairly thick, but not too overpowering. As for the kind of look it gives off, a natural dolly look is what it is~

Enlargement:  
Diameter: 15mm
I think this size for enlargement is good. If it were a tad bit smaller, I'd like it even more :P

Comfort: 
I thought these were quite comfy! I did experience a bit of dryness after 5 hours but for me that is good because I tend to have drier eyes.

Comparisons Between:
Grang Grang Brown vs Grang Grang Choco vs Mimi Almond Brown


Overall: 
These are probably my most natural pair of lenses I have aside from my grang grang lenses (which I reviewed: HERE). I like how they don't make your eyes appear black or honey colored (though I do like honey brown colored eyes too). These are just strictly brown.



Do you prefer natural lenses over vibrant and bold lenses?
I can't say, I like both! depending on my mood and what kind of look I am aiming for :)

Color&Design: 
These are amazing <3 The color is so vibrant and stands out so much. Very opaque and the colors chosen go beautifully together. These are definitely fake looking and scream for attention. It seems though, that with flash, the colors come off as more of a pastel color.. that would be so awesome if there were pastel lenses too :O

Enlargement:  
Diameter: 16.2mm
Deng, they're big. Heavy makeup for a night out would be best suited for these (also keeping in mind of how vibrant they are as well).

Comfort: 
I thought these would be less comfortable because these weren't the best for Jennifer in terms of comfort (her review of these lenses: click). However, they were surprisingly very okay for me. Eye drops would suffice for me. But remember, comfort differs for each individual!

Overall: 
LOVE them! The design is complex and intricate as well as the color combination. They are super opaque and the color stands out like there's no tomorrow haha The only thing about this is that they might not be the best for everyday wear and heavier makeup is best suited for these lenses.
