Review: G&G Shinny Green (Puffy 3 Tone) (+WataMote cosplay)


Tomoko Kuroki!

  Oh my god, it's been so long, I nearly forgot how to type. I did, however, manage to pull off a cosplay of Tomoko from WataMote (you don't want to know the full name. It means 'No matter how I look at it, it's you guys's fault I'm not popular!') She has green eyes, so off I trotted to buy some G&G Shinny Green (Puffy 3 Tone) circle lenses.

(No, that's not a typo. 'Shinny' makes me think of knobbly knees, and 'puffy' is my face in the morning if I accidentally sleep on it. :c)

Please note that the panda eyes are intentional and part of the cosplay! (Tomoko has too many late night playing otome games... :'D)

The green eyes of jealousy? (And two sets of eyelashes,
because whoever heard of curled eyelashes?)

GREEEEEEEN.



 The colour and design on the Shinny Green lenses is pretty great! I was a bit hesitant at first when trying to choose between these and Princess Mimi Apple Green, the other best-selling green circle lenses on PinkyParadise, but I was concerned that the limbal ring on the Princess Mimi ones was too wide, so not enough of the colour would be left. I'm glad I chose these. They have a pretty green colour, not too alien-like but definitely bright enough to show, and a little bit of brown round the pupil hole.

A comparison. I look a bit wall-eyed ('I SEE WHAT YOU DID
THERE. AND ALSO OVER THERE.' because I don't think my
right eye has its base curve quite right - lenses seem to slip...)
The enlargement is so-so. A little bit, but nothing too crazy and alienlike, just how I like it.

Comfort was great. I got a bit worried when it felt irritated when I first put them in, but they soon settled and I wore them for around eight hours, basically forgetting about them. Then again, the shoot was quite distracting, as it included making faces and mock screaming, dressed as a tired schoolgirl, while passing motorists laughed at me... .__.

Overall, fantastic. I would definitely recommend these for a green-eyed cosplay.

Whole costume! (minus blazer)
