BLACKPINK is definitely in my area! Rosé, Lisa, Jennie & Jisoo have been muses of OLENS since 2018 and I am living for it (arent we all?)! I got the chance to try out their top picks and I’ll let you know my thoughts in this blog. OLENS is actually the no. 1 contact lens brand globally and has partnered and been loved by global stars and influencers such as Bad Yoyo, BTS, and even BLACKPINK! More than being a fashion and stylish item, OLENS definitely puts their customer’s safety first as their products are developed with Puscon, a biocompatible hydrophilic material that is KFDA approved. As contacts come into direct contact with our naked eye, it’s important to make sure that these are made only with the best materials. OLENS? Safe and stylish indeed! Let’s talk about BLACKPINK’s top picks! ROSÉ—SECRISS 3CON NATURAL GRAYThe Secriss 3CON collection was actually named after the terms "Secret" and "Iris," which in other terms is the best kept eye beauty secret of some. In this case, Rosé actually revealed this to be her eye-styling secret! PATTERN: The Secriss 3CON Natural Gray gives your eyes that subtle shine that looks natural enough to wear everyday. The pattern itself is very graphic and vibrant, and that actually gives life to my dull eyes. Since my eyes are dark brown, there's not much of a change with the color. However, I noticed that this really adds definition to my eyes, which is indeed perfect for everyday use and not drawing much attention to it. This is probably one of the most natural yet captivating contacts I've tried from OLENS! The contacts itself has 3 colors: Brown, Light Gray and Dark Gray/Black, which gives that "graphic look" to my eyes. SIZE: All the contacts in the Secriss 3CON Natural line has a graphic diameter of 13.1mm, covering up almost the entire iris which also makes my eyes look bigger. Just like the other products of OLENS, this is also very easy to wear. DURATION: The Secriss 3CON Natural line only offers 1-day contacts, available in 10 or 20 pairs per box. Before, I used to go for monthly contacts since I had to wear them everyday, and this is my first time trying out dailies. Since I (and most of us) have been home most of quarantine, I'm starting to think that dailies would save us more because you'd only open one when you need it, so you'd be able to get the most of it! Perfect for: Everyday Office/School Look! lisa—SECRISS 3CON CORAL GRAYLisa's pick is from the Secriss collection as well! But hers is from the Secriss 3CON Coral Collection, which is more pigmented and stylish than the Secriss 3CON Natural Collection. PATTERN: Lisa's pick, the Secriss 3CON Coral Gray gives out more of that 3D dimension in my eyes and is definitely more pigmented than the Secriss 3CON Natural Gray (which was Rosé's pick!) You can also see how the pattern is more precise and visible on my dark brown eyes, compared to the Secriss 3CON Natural Gray. It also has a subtle circle line with 3 blended colors, and a delicate yellow-gold circled dots in the middle. Since this is more stylish, I'd use this for more sophisticated and sexy looks. SIZE: All the contacts in the Secriss 3CON Coral line has a bigger graphic diameter of 13.5mm, which covers more than the Secriss 3CON Natural line. Just like the other products of OLENS, this is also very easy to wear. DURATION: The Secriss 3CON Coral line also only offers 1-day contacts, available in 10 or 20 pairs per box. Perfect for: Edgy and Stylish Looks! jennie—SCANDI LIGHT GRAYJennie, on the other hand, went for a more natural and realistic eyestyling with Scandi Collection. PATTERN: The Scandi collection is designed to blend well with your eyes, with "No Edge Lines" and having blendable colors. I've never been a fan of those contacts with harsh lines that make it seem like my eyes are fake. Scandi Light Gray is a definite crowd favorite because it has such a simple yet beautiful pattern. You can also see the true color of the contacts in my eyes, unlike other gray contacts that appear blue on dark colored eyes. SIZE: The entire Scandi Collection has a graphic diameter of 11.9mm, this is because it blends to your eyes' natural color as the color goes out. I also realized that my eyes appear a bit smaller than it actually is, giving a more cute and dainty look. DURATION: The Scandi Collection comes in 1-day and 1-month boxes. However, the Light Gray variant is only available in 1-month packs. Perfect for: Chic and Cute Looks! JISOO —SCANDI hazelJisoo also went for the same collection Jennie chose, the, more natural and realistic, Scandi Collection. PATTERN: Like I said, the Scandi collection is designed to blend well with your eyes, with "No Edge Lines" and having blendable colors. Scandi Hazel looks a lot more subtle, and is perfect for everyday use! It looks just like my natural eyes but more defined-- it literally brings color to my eyes. It's pattern is similar to the natural irises that we have, but is definitely more detailed and gives more depth. SIZE: The entire Scandi Collection has a graphic diameter of 11.9mm, this is because it blends to your eyes' natural color as the color goes out. I also realized that my eyes appear a bit smaller than it actually is, giving a more cute and dainty look. DURATION: The Scandi Collection comes in 1-day and 1-month boxes. Scandi Hazel comes in either 1-day (20pcs) or 1 month boxes. Perfect for: Everday and Natural Looks!
FINAL THOUGHTS: Out of all the contacts from the OLENS X BLACKPINK series, I could say that Scandi Light Gray is my all-time favorite (and not just because Jennie is my bias)! I really like drawing attention to my eyes in a subtle way, and I just get so much compliments when I wear the Scandi Light Gray. Despite that being my favorite, all of their top picks are certainly stunning, you just have to choose which one fits your personality best-- or you could maybe just try the entire OLENS X BLACKPINK series? ;) IMPORTANT INFO:
Look at you, now look at me, how you like that?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.
