Maxim Contact Lens - Hazel

For the month of September, I tried on the Maxim Contact Lens - Hazel...

The color is very subtle and its safe to use for work... But I had problems with these set of lens. Apparently, I can only wear it for a few hours and it started to itch like crazy!

I concluded that these lens could be defects and I was so disappointed!

These lens have the enlargement effect which I like. Its only 14.2mm but its properties are good enough for those enlargement which I need.

I am only sad and appalled that I could only wear these lens for 2 days and it started to itch really crazy that I had to take it out and my eyes started to turn red. Bummer.

These what the lens look like and the blue box! SO SO SO disappointed with the defects but I will be definitely grab again one of these for work purposes! Its a very nice dark brown color.. I won't called it hazel though...

Aniways, I found a picture which I like when I was wearing the Maxim Contact Lens in Gray. 

My reviews for the lens here!!! Maxim contact lens in gray.
I don't really like the gray lens... Give me Freshlook Colorblends in Gray, anytime... 

Maxim Contact Lens - Cocoa!

I will say this again... I AM a huge fan of MAXIM contact lens! They are super COMFORTABLE and, most of the colors are gorgeous... I won't say all, but most...

Here's a review on the big eyes (blue box) lens in cocoa!

I love the cocoa color. It looks subtle, but it has that kind of enhancement effect which I like. Its not like in your face kind, and I feel that it looks better than Freshkon brown series... The colors do show off in ordinary lightings...

Over exposed picture, but you get it. It looks lighter when there's more light...

As you can see, the up-closed picture looks kinda pink or orangey. I have to admit, it does appear orange tinted on my eyes... But I have to say, it looks very nice! The limbal rings are there to enhance your eyes and it does give a slight enlargement which I like.

Here's some of the shots using my samsung galaxy S4.

Overall, I LOVE these lenses. Yes, it is comfortable. It is so comfortable that I can wear it as long as 10 hours straight. I don't have to use any eye drops!

The design of the lens are quite alright, but the colors are very gorgeous!

Maxim Contact Lens

In Big Color Eyes - GRAY!

This is probably the most decent shot after several takes, in very bright lighting. I had to use the light that is shinning outside from my house.

I can't remembered when I had these. Its probably very long time ago. And the main reason why I didn't do the review any sooner, because I find that the color is very boring and not that obvious.

This is probably how it looks like, at the most natural set of lighting. Very safe if you want to wear this at work!

Of course, I am a huge fan of MAXIM contant lens because it is SO COMFORTABLE! I can wear this for more than 8 hours and it does not even stick to my eye balls! And I don't even need to use eye drops.

The only flipside is the color. I really think that its just TOO dark for my liking.

For enlargement wise, its only 14.0, but I feel it makes my iris slightly bigger. So, i'm okay with the size. Here's a close up.

That's the pattern, and it has quite an obvious limbal ring. That's why your eyes will look slightly bigger! But I swear, the color is not really that obvious!

Will I buy these again? Probably when I start working next year. But for color enhancement wise, NOPE.. I'll rather choose grey lens that are more obvious like FRESHLOOK colorblends.

Geo Nudy Soul vs Maxim Colors Contact

Korean brands of Contact Lens!
So we have the famous GEO medical lens vs quite a new product Maxim Colors Contact.
Both from South Korea and of course, Geo medical lens have been around and have built a solid reputation.
Where else Maxim Colors have been making its way in the Asian market, especially in Thailand where its one of the most popular colored contact lens there!

Since I've both of them and had tried them on, I realised both of them are quite similar especially in color! At first when I was wearing them, I couldn't really tell what's the MAJOR difference of these 2 lenses.

The only concrete and visible evidence is that Maxim Colored Contact lens are more vibrant and the color is slightly lighter and a bit opaque, compare to Geo Nudy soul which is very much subtle and softer in color. Really, I couldn't really tell the difference that much!

Honestly, if you ask me now, I can't really tell which ones are my favorite, but I have to say since Maxim Contact Lens in Kiwi comes with a degree, I have no choice but to declare it a WINNER, because Geo Nudy Soul in Kiwi currently has no power (plano) and like I've mentioned earlier, I don't really like my colored lens in plano or with no degree cos its very blurry for me.

So I always bought my lens with a (-0.5) degree.

Hard to tell isn't it? ;)

Maxim Contact Lens

So I've purchased the Maxim Contact Lens, the blue box series (Big Eyes) in kiwi and hazel!

My sis had influenced me to take care of my eyes and she constantly nagged of the "dangers" of wearing circle lens though I have to admit, I was more interested in what Maxim contact lens have to offer.

I guessed, one of the genuine reasons why I purchased them was because I needed to have an impulsive act of shopping with no particular reasons what so ever! Hehehe..

I tried to look around for any offers because apparently, the optical shop where my sis made her purchase cost about $24 per box and $46 if you grab 2 boxes! So, here I was planning to have my hair trimmed and I was making my way to Hougang One (in Singapore) and passed this shop, i Observation Houste Pte. Ltd at #01-11 and they had MAXIM colored lens, and what do you know, I was greeted with a smile and the sale person (optometrist) was extremely nice and helpful!

So I queried about the price of the Blue Box series and they quote $20.00 per box (currently on PROMOTION people!!!), and I went, OKAY, I will grab 2 boxes from you guys, NO hesitation at ALL... though I was hesitated on which brown should I grab - its either the hazel or cocoa.

Prior to that, I was already doing research on my own and I saw the comparison between these 2 colors, though I have to admit, I will rather opt for the "cocoa" since it looks much lighter compared to the hazel, but I guessed, since I will be out on hospital placement this January, I will rather go on a safer side and chose hazel. I don't want to make unnecessary attention to myself when I am seeing my patients.

I haven't try it yet! I will definitely open the kiwi next week! Can't wait to show off my new kiwi lens from Maxim Colored Lens!

Aniways, for those who are interested in Maxim Orange Box (bigger color eyes), they cost $25 per box!... :D
