Ever since trying out Freshlook Colourblend's grey lens (my first colour lens), I knew that grey was the colour for me. However, Freshlook Colourblends does not provide an enlarging effect even with a 14.5mm diameter. Thus, I joined the circle lens hype and tested popular brands such as GEO, Dueba etc... in various shades of brown, grey and black as I wanted something natural, and those poster girls are always so damn preetaayyy!
Anyway, I should have known better, posters are deceiving... I ended up with 15 - 16mm circle lenses that made me look like a freak show. It was then I've decided decided that light grey lenses suits my pale Asian skin best (even without makeup!) while solid black rims and super large diameters are a big NO-NO for me.
So began my hunt for the perfect lens that can fulfill my requirements:-
- Light Grey
- 3-Tones
- No solid Black Rims
- Around 14.2 - 14.5 mm in diameter
- Slight enlarging effect
And I've found it! - RainbowColor Cosmetic Lens in Storm Grey designed by our very own gorgeous Malaysian blogger Cheezie!

I got mine at TokyoNinKi, an online store selling Japanese beauty products.
Currently priced at RM58 (N.P.), RM38 (as of 29/10/2013), RM 29 (as of 3/1/2014) per box of 2 lenses, super worth it!!!

My package arrived on the within 2 working days after payment, as expected with any delivery via PosLaju. Got myself 2 boxes because of my different eye power (very glad I did, because I love them!). The boxes came cocooned in bubble wrap together with 3 sachets of Hydrogen+Collagen drink samples, plus 2 really huge brochures, a heart shaped and a poop shaped brochure...
AND here comes the happy part! unwrapping and trying on mah lenses!

VERDICT:
Colour: ❤❤❤❤❤ 5/5 - Vivid, noticeable but subtle, won't make you a lizard.
Enlargement: ❤❤❤❤♡ 4/5 - Slightly enlarging, will not give you a dolly, alien eye look if you're aiming for that haha!
Design: ❤❤❤❤❤ 5/5 - Pattern mimics actual iris, making it even more natural looking.
Comfort: ❤❤❤❤❤ 5/5 - 10+ hours with no discomfort at all, but my eyes got a little red after the 10th hour.
Overall: ❤❤❤❤❤ 5/5 - Super NATURAL grey lens if you like just a hint of colour to your eyes.
Personal Comments: I'm a fan of everything natural looking, be it make-up or lenses. This tri-colour lens blends nicely into my dark brown/black eyes, no halo, no thick black rims. Just perfect! Can't tell you how much I LURVEEE this!
Repurchase: ❤❤❤❤❤ 5/5 - Would definitely buy them again! or maybe stock up before it discontinues!
