The Neon Series (by EOS) features a darker outer rim giving a larger, more defined look. This series is specifically for creating a bold, bright eye.

I wasn’t really a big fan of pink lenses, so I was a little hesitant when they sent these out. However I didn’t mind them as much when I put them in. They were certainly dramatic looking and I did get a few compliments on them. I felt that they blended pretty well with my eye colour, but would look even better with a darker eye.

I was a little worried at first as I felt like I had a ‘black swan’ vibe going on – these lenses would be great for a cosplay – but no one said anything and I got used to them the longer I wore them. They really do enlarge your eyes, and are therefore a great pair of circle lenses. The pink is also a nice bright but not in-your-face shade.

These were very comfortable for 14.5mm lenses. I don’t usually like wearing over 14mm but the other violet pair I own are so pretty and comfortable that I had no worries. I only needed to apply solution twice during the day and that wasn’t so much because my eyes were dry or itchy but because I worry too much and didn’t want them to.

Look:

I was tempted by the name at first and I have to agree that they do live up to the ‘natural’ look. The colour of the contact is a very vibrant green and even though the outer circle may look quite dark in photos that is only because they are close-up shots.

Of course these kind of lenses are not made to make you look particularly ‘doll-like’ and they don’t enlarge them as much as others but I think that is a bonus, as not everyone wants to wear that kind of lens all the time. I paired my lenses with some simple make-up and false lashes to achieve an everyday look.

Feel:

These lenses were particularly comfortable. As I mentioned in my previous post, I often suffer from allergies (eww), which dry my eyes out so I always carry around eye solution when wearing lenses (as advised by my optician). Even so the natural-look series actually felt pretty natural too. I didn’t feel like I was wearing lenses and I was able to wear them for quite a while without feeling like my eyes were dry or that I needed to take the lenses out.

If it is your first time wearing lenses, take it slowly and wear them for only a few hours each day so your eyes will get used to them. I wouldn’t suggest wearing your lenses for too long unless you know it will be ok, and if they get dry just pop some contact lens-friendly eye solution in – never use water!

Look:

Of course if you’re going for a natural look then you wouldn’t think of considering a pair of purple lenses. However, these ones managed to look more natural than I had expected – which is a good thing because the violet isn’t prominent until you get up-close. This means they’re perfect for an everyday look and I would happily wear them this way.

Even without the flash on my camera, these lenses give the perfect Dolly-look eye. I paired my lenses with some simple make-up and false lashes to achieve a more natural, grown-up eye. However they could easily work with dramatic/colourful eye make-up, which I thought was a big plus.

Feel:

I haven’t worn lenses for a couple of months, so I was expecting them to feel out of place or slightly uncomfortable. However I found that once I had given my eyes a few minutes to adjust they felt very comfortable. Even when my eyes dried out slightly (I suffer from allergies) they weren’t itchy like some others, and just a few drops of solution made them comfortable again for the rest of the day.

Some people worry about the lenses drying your eyes out. Well, as mentioned if you carry around some eye drops you shouldn’t have a problem. If it is your first time wearing lenses, take it slowly and wear them for only a few hours each day so your eyes will get used to them. I wouldn’t suggest wearing your lenses for too long unless you know it will be ok.
