Review: Princess Pinky Twilight Brown from PinkyParadise

GoldenEye!

 I have heard that Princess Pinky Twilight Brown is the circle lens for cosplay of a character with yellow eyes. Since I am intending to cosplay Chuunibyou's Rikka (who has a single yellow contact lens in her right eye), I figured I'd give a pair of these a shot. I bought them from PinkyParadise.

I bought these at the same time as my Venus Eye Aqua (here) in which I mentioned that I got a defective one which felt scratchy and painful (in the right eye no less!) But pinkyparadise were great about sending me a replacement, with a really quick turnaround too. <3 I'm glad to say the new lens was absolutely fine.

I've been Tango'ed! Nah, I was standing in natural light, in front of an orange towel.  Looks like the mother of all tans.

Indoor lighting. They look more yellow than gold like that.

   The colouring on these is great. Under natural light, they're a beautifully wild-looking gold colour, which added a nice touch of evil to my normal look without being those freaky, fluorescent yellow Hallowe'en types. They were great on my dark eyes, blending well with the pupil while being opaque where it counted.

Look how well they show up!

  I really wanted to love these, however! There was a downside. My eyes felt dry and uncomfortable after only an hour. I didn't use any eyedrops, true, but should I really have to resort to that after only an hour? This is only my second pair, so I'd like to hear more about it, but I wore the Venus Eye Aqua for three hours before any sort of dryness happened.

It is a shame that they are not very comfortable for long use, as the colour is nice! I think these might be good for a photoshoot, but too irritating for long wear.
