OLENs Russian Smoky Lens Review [Gray]

 

I know what you might be thinking by now. Did my blog turn into a circle lens reviewing blog? 

Funnily enough, that's basically what it's always been! I'd love to be a one-stop-shop for finding your new favorite lens!

I've definitely noticed a change in the type of lenses that I've been wearing throughout the years though! It started off with the eye enlarging, cosplay lenses and have morphed into the more subtle "mature" styles. Mainly because I don't cosplay anymore or partake in different fashion styles as much these days. 

(I wear scrubs 95% of the time LOL)

Throughout the years, I've been trying to find lenses that lean on the more "realistic" side even if they are bright colors and these lenses fall under that umbrella~

These particular lenses are a new version of Olens' already very popular Russian line and I was pretty excited to try these out and see how they compared to the original Russians.

 (I've worn the originals and really enjoyed them!) 

~O-lens Russian Smoky Gray~

Daily:

Gray, Brown and Olive

Price: 

$21 a box (10 lenses a box = 5 pairs)

Diameter:

Graphic Diameter = 13.3 mm

Lens Diameter = 14.2 mm

Base Curve:

Material:

Puscon

I love how smooth the colors and transitions look on the eye. I don't have any of my own comparison pictures but, the original Russian lenses have a little more pixelated look up close and on the eye.

Color

The Russian Smoky Grays are the perfect medium gray shade. It's not too light that they look vampiric but not too dark either. They definitely add a nice pop of drama to the eye and can match basically any makeup style. The lens does have a limbal ring which looks pretty distinct when looking at just the lens graphic but, when worn, it actually looks pretty subtle and natural.

Design

The way O-lens executed the graphic on this lens makes the colors look so smooth on the eye and they transition really well. Even in the close up of the eye, the lens' coloring is smooth and you can't see the "pixel" of the design which definitely adds to the more natural look of it. 

Size

The graphic size on the smoky line is 13.3mm which is .6mm larger then the original russian line. They have this listed as a "medium" size which has a touch of enlarging but still more subtle then the largest sizes they have.

Comfort

I might as well never change what I put here because I've yet to meet an OLENs contact that wasn't super comfortable.
