Lens review: I.Fairy Yuri Red

Lately I had been trying to wear lenses with a more "natural" look because I had had problems in school when I turned up with bright red eyes. Now I'm out of school, and so it's time for lenses that could never be mistaken for my real eyes. For a while I've felt like red eyes so I decided on the I.Fairy Yuri Red.

As usual, my photographer is Shiro Samurai. 

I.Fairy has these small and cute vials.

I realized pretty instantly that my eyes would probably not look crimson, because the lenses had more of a ruby and violet color. It was fine with me; I was fascinated by the design of the lenses.

I made sure to put them to soak in lens solution for a whole night before wearing them. 

This is how it looks with one lens in. The enlarging effect is not huge but it's fairly good. This picture was taken after I had ripped off my false lashes, and the eyeliner went with.

My natural eye color is blue-ish gray.

The following pictures were taken indoors. As you can see, the lenses don't show as red despite the name. Their color doesn't really fit their name but I find them gorgeous nonetheless.

It felt better to be outdoors because since the pupil hole is a bit small, I would see dark corners every now and then when I was in a dim light. It's not much of a bother though.

I love that the outer ring of the lenses is irregular. I was enthusiastic about this and it met my expectations just fine: unnatural but not horribly alien. 

Comfort-wise, I would say that these aren't the best but they are fine enough to be worn for several hours. They don't dry out too fast but they do have this slightly thick feeling in the eye. In others words, the comfort is okay but if you need very comfortable lenses to wear to a movie, you will not pick the Yuri Red.

Lastly, here is how the lenses look from a distance.

In short: 

Color: 7/10

If you wanted red lenses, you will be disappointed. Otherwise, these have a beautiful mix of violet and dark red that reminds me of some precious stone. It's almost mystic.

Design: 10/10

 The pattern is unique with the irregular outer ring and the curved rays of violet among the red.

Opacity: 9/10

Your real eye color is almost completely covered, but some of it might show through the pupil hole.

Enlargement: 6/10

Slight enlargement, which fits the design perfectly in my opinion.

Comfort: 6/10

As I mentioned, comfort is not the strong point of these lenses. A little below average.

Naturalness: 2/10

No, I do not believe that these lenses could ever be mistaken for my real eyes.
