Puffy 3 Tone Grey Lens Review - Picture Heavy



Hello Everyone! Stuck to my word of updating this weekend and I do indeed have a review for you all, so they's get this started!

Let's the the Basic manufacture & sizing out of the way;

Manufacturer: Dueba
Diameter: 14.5mm
Effect: 16.0mm
Base Curve: 8.6
Prescription: 0.00 to -10.00



Ordered these from Apple of Your Eyes, Standard post. Received in 2 weeks in US.

As you can see they have a Thick Grey Limbal ring. As it gets inward it goes into a Light Grey and the middle is a Yellow Accent color with some Brown.

I will say that these Lenses can come off as Three Different Colors, based off of the Lighting and Distance one is looking at you.






For the Enlargement you can see that there is a noticeable size of Enlarging Effect. Though the effect is not Off putting. You can get away with wearing these without Make-Up.

Enlargement: 8.0/10.0. 
Note: I did not buy these for the Enlargement.


With Both in for Flash, depending on the Angle and view the Grey have more of a Blue hue to them as you can see.




Without Flash it looks more Grey but still with a Blue tint to it with a yellow center.



As noted above they can come off as Three different colors. In this picture with the different room lighting (no flash) The Yellow blends in with the Grey and it comes off as a Light Cloudy Green. At work they showed up more so as Green/Grey than Grey or a Blue/Grey. It all depends on the Lighting! As well as the color of your eyes.

Appearance: 6.0/10.0

At first I did not care for these lenses when I first put these on due to how the Yellow in the middle can be give a Fish Eye effect but soon you forget it's there after you get use to the look of the lenses. I received compliments on the lenses but the color is what people were confused upon.

"Oh, are those Green?" "Are those Blue?" "They don't look Grey." If you want a lens with a Solid color in lighting then these aren't for you.

For Comfort these Lenses were Alright. I love Dueba, I fell in love with them with the G&G/Dueba Natural Green lenses I ordered from them, as well as in Violet but I yes I could tell these were in my eyes.
Was there an Irritation? No. I do work in a Dry environment.

Comfort: 7.0/10.0

I also want to Note: When trying out Lenses make sure that not only do you have your Solutions up to date/Not Expired (or Open pass 90 days). You want to make sure that you are not Allergic to it as well. If you have Itchy Eyes/Irritation as soon as you put on the Contacts after a few minutes, it's usually not the Lens. It's the Solution in which you have them in.


Overall: 7.0/10.0

Circle Lens Review: i.Fairy Hanabi Grey

I promised I would try to stay updated with the Reviews so that's what I'm trying to do : D!

And there is this Glare effect, I do not know where it came from.

This one is on the i.Fairy Hanabi Grey which I purchased from Geo-Lens House which is a Facebook store. They have many i.Fairy Lenses, Kimchi, Geo, Dolly+, Moe Moe and Keizen so check them out when you get a chance :3. They were about 16-17USD.

Now the Hanabi Grey's weren't my first pick, I wanted the Dolly+ in Grey but they did not have my Prescription in stock. I asked another Store and they were out of my Prescription as well. So I substituted with the Hanabi Grey's.


A close up of the Pattern of the lens and the lens itself. As you see it has a thick solid outer black ring which helps with the Enlarging effect of the Lenses. The Actual "Iris" part of the lens is a Heavy Grey with black strips going in a swirl motion outward. The Lens itself is 14.5/14.7mm in Diameter, the enlarging effect is 16.2mm.

Here's one with one lens in and one lens out.


As you see there is definitely a huge difference in the size of the contact on my Right eye in this picture verse my Left eye in the picture.

This is not a lens that is hard to notice, it is very noticeable even in not so low/poor lighting. Even if they can't tell the exact grey because sometimes in low lighting grey can come off as a Blue, you know you have some large eyes, haha.

Comparing Hanabi Grey to Geo Ash Grey:



The Geo Ash Grey isn't as vibrant of a Grey as the Hanabi's and it's also not as big in Diameter nor enlargement. I wear the Geo Ash Grey's often and I like how they look out in the Sunlight/in a Very well lit area but if you're somewhere where the Light isn't on you really then it's hard to even see what color they are. I've had many people go "Those are Grey???" Whenever they would ask if I even had on contacts while wearing them.

Now as far as the Reviewing goes

Comfort: 10/10
They are a very comfortable lens, I like how I don't feel them and that the pupil area is big so you never have to worry if you might have some color in your field of vision causing blurness.

Color & Design: 8/10
It's a nice lens but it's definitely a "Oh I KNOW you got something on" lens. Which can be okay if that is what you're going for like for Cosplay for example. But if you're like me who like the bigger lenses for the Shiny eyes and "Dolly eye" effect then this lens can be a hit or miss when it comes to it. It definitely depends on what you're wearing and the lighting to see if you get the desired Dolly eye effect that you want. As noted from above I really wanted the Dolly+ Grey's for the Dolly Eye effect but again these lenses are still nice :-).

Enlargement: 10/10
You can definitely tell the enlargement, it's a nice big enlargement. If you want something subtle this is definitely not something you want. a Subtle lens with a non-enlarging effect would be the Geo Ash Grey :-)

Overall: 9/10
I will say these lenses have me looking at the other colors in the Hanabi series. Based on the vibrant of the colors they are definitely a Cosplay type of lenses or for someone who wants the over the top lenses.
