Lens review: G&G Big Size Circle Violet

A little while ago I ordered these violet contact lenses from Pinky Paradise. I originally planned to use them for Okita Souji from Peace Maker Kurogane (and I still do) but I opened them before cosplaying him . I really like violet contacts so I tried them on and here are the pictures.

The brand is G&G Big Size Circle Violet.
Pictures were taken by Valkoinen Samurai.


Normal indoors light.

Flash.

 This one was taken with Valkoinen Samurai's older camera.

One lens in. Flash photo taken with the SLR camera.

I must say that I really like these contacts; they are quite enlarging and despite being violet, they are not too conspicuous. In dim light, it's very hard to tell the color of my eyes when I have these on, and in outdoors light, people don't notice right away. What's more, they are really comfortable to wear. I stop feeling them in my eyes after five minutes or so, which is very appreciated with colored contacts. I have no vision limitation (ie no colored halo or blur at the limit of my vision), which often happens with colored contacts. They don't feel "thick" either (my yellow contacts do, in addition to limiting my vision).

 In short: 

Color: 8/10
Noticeable color but in dimmer light it turns into this undefinable contact lenses color. They also look blue-ish at times but most often it's a beautiful violet. The black outline makes them even cooler.
Design: 7/10
Simple design but it looks good!
Opacity: 8/10
They only show a little of my real eye color.
Enlargement: 7/10
They are enlarging but don't give huge doll eyes.
Comfort: 8/10
Can be worn for several hours in a row without problems
Naturalness: 3/10
Violet eyes with this kind of pattern? Totally natural.
