GOLD 3CON COLLECTIONIt's already an established fact (if you've read my previous blogs) that I'm a big fan of contact lenses! Aside from it being a fashion item, I also really need it because my eyes have prescription. For the past four months, I have already completely switched to only using OLENS contact lenses. I've already tried several collections and I'm so happy OLENS let me choose which one I wanted to try. I chose the Gold 3con collection because I noticed that it had a stronger color payoff than the recent ones I've tried— more on that later! When it comes to comfortability, I can really say that all lenses from OLENS are extremely comfortable! While some of their newest contacts are made from their patented material Puscon, the Gold 3con collection is made out of HEMA, which is the traditional material for contacts. The HEMA material is more suitable for longer use with its increased durability, which is fitting since these are monthly contacts. Additionally, HEMA does not easily adhere to dust particles, making it less prone to damage. COMFORT: 10/10! very durable yet comfortable! All the contacts in the entire collection has the same graphic diameter of 13.1mm and a total diameter or 14.0mm, which is slightly bigger when compared to the Scandi Collection (which I have reviewed in my previous blog!). Like I said, I wanted to try a stronger look for my eyes, and this definitely is a big plus since my eyes also look bigger when wearing them, check photos below! SIZE: 10/10! actually depends on your preference! And finally, the five colors of the collection— Hazel, Ice, Lavender, Ocean and Lime Gold 3con! Let's talk about it one by one; hazel gold 3conThe Hazel Gold 3con has a very yellowish-brown shade that really makes your eyes stand out. It comes off as a strong, shiny, and definitely noticeable. I've noticed that the color appears stronger in picture, making it a bit reptile-looking. I feel like I'd reserve this for more special events, as it would look slightly "too much" for everyday use. Perfect for: Special Events, Dinners ice gold 3conAs a lover of gray contacts, the Ice Gold 3con definitely looks more subtle as it has a mix of both gray and brown colors, making it look more natural. The grayness is just right, but in photos it appears to have a bit of a blue tone. Nevertheless, it looks mesmerizing yet natural. Good for daily use! Perfect for: Everyday use, simple looks lavender gold 3conIt's my first trying out a purple color for contacts! I thought purple was only for cosplaying, dressing up with costumes, and the like, but this one surprisingly looks very natural and cute! I didn't expect it to look good on my dark brown eyes, it does appear a bit gray with a hint of purple. Still looks cute and I'd definitely wear this new color I've discovered! Perfect for: Casual and cute looks ocean gold 3conThe Ocean Gold 3con literally embodies the word "mesmerizing." This is the best blue contacts I've tried on so far, as it really gives that baby blue eyes vibe! It makes my eyes look like the deep ocean (which is probably why it's named after that!) and the blue tone mixed with light brown is just perfect. Compared to Scandi Aqua, the Ocean Gold 3con has a stronger color and definitely pops more. Perfect for: Eye-centered looks, special events lime gold 3conI love how the Lime Gold 3con really comes off as green on my eyes. Most times green contacts just look light brown when worn on my dark brown eyes, but this one really gives out that green-limey feel! It's also subtle and just enough tone of green to wear on a daily basis, without making you look like a reptile. Perfect for: Casual and simple looks I'd say that this collection really screams color! I don't think these colors are as natural as the Scandi collection, instead it's really focused on giving you that pop of color in your eyes. So if you're looking for contacts which you can wear everyday, I recommend the Ice Gold 3con and Lavender Gold 3con. The other colors are good if you're really dressing up and want to draw extra attention to your eyes. COLORS: 10/10 for its variety! All of the contacts in the Gold 3con collection all have the same pattern, which is a brown inner circle that's blended smoothly with the main color, all without a dark outer ring (which I'm not such a fan of because it makes my eyes look so fake)! PATTERN: 10/10! all OLENS designs are well thought of and very detailed! ALL IN ALL, The Gold 3con collection is definitely underrated! The colors are superb and you can really choose a color for every mood. Although I don't see myself wearing these on a daily basis, I would definitely grab a pair from the Gold 3con collection from time to time, especially when I would attend events or I'm doing creative looks. IMPORTANT INFO:
psa: all items mentioned are gifted, but all reviews are personal and based from firsthand experience.
addtl: the redness in my eyes is a result of trying out different contacts in a short span of time (poking my eye several times with my long nails) and not in any way a reaction from the contact lenses.
