Necklace

I got a necklace at Macys for 75% off and I had a 20% coupon so I got it for $7.49 (Originally 28.00)
Now that's a deal!! It pays off to bargain hunt!! n_n

And I LOVE it. I love the mixing of the studs and pearls. I'm not much of a pearl person, but I LOVE
it when it's mixed with other jewels, chains and such. I'm really into intricate and unique jewelry. n_n

Black Circle Lenses - Geo Angel Black & Hana SPC Barbie Black

Circle lenses have become a phenomenon in Korea and other Asian
countries. A lot of Asian actresses, models, and pop stars wear them.

What circle lenses are is lenses that enhance and create a large eye
effect. The diameter of the lens is bigger than the eye, and this
gives the eye a big dolly look. There are many different brands,
patterns, and colors. They generally last up to a year, if you clean
them regularly. Always have clean hands before touching the lenses.
You eye can get infections and remember these are your eyes. So take
care of them. You generally can wear them between 6-8 hours. DO NOT
wear them over the 8 hours, because circle lenses are larger than
regular contact lenses and you eyes can't get the oxygen it needs.

The lenses are not sold in the US because they are not FDA Approved.
However in Korea they are FDA approved. They are safe for the eye when
properly maintained and cleaned. Do be aware of fakes, the geo lenses
have a scratch off sticker that lets you know if they are authentic by
typing in the code in a site geo.fw1860.com

I was sent my lenses from DBeautyshop. My over all experience was
good. I will say they are a bit expense compared to some other online
shop I've found. However they were super nice in giving my readers and
video subscribers a discount code. I do have to say that their
customer service was excellent, super nice, and fast responses.
Fantastic customer service!!

Geo Angel Black
Comfort 10/10
Color Design 10/10
Enlargement 7/10
Over all 10/10

Overall the Geo Angel circle lenses are very comfortable. After your
eye adjusts to the lens you can't feel them after that. This of
course, may vary from eye to eye. I LOVE the design of the lenses,
super natural with a intense dark mysterious eye. I give them an over
all 10/10.

Hana SPC Barbie Black
Comfort 8/10 (Due to the size of the lens)
Color Design 9/10
Enlargement 10/10
Over all 8/10

Overall the Hana SPC Barbie Black circle lenses are fair in comfort
level. Because of the size of the lens 15.8mm, you can definitely feel
them in your eye, However after awhile this seems to fade a bit. The
design is very nice, with a thick ring around that enlarges and
intensifies the eyes. Natural design, however you definitely can tell
you have contacts in. The enlargement is HUGE!! I'd give these a 8/10,
mainly because I don't like a huge enlargement.
