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.

Maxim Contact Lens

Hey! I've finally managed to try my new Maxim Contact Lens, the blue box - Big Color Eyes in kiwi on Monday!
This is how the packaging looks like! SO CUTE right?!...

Aniways, here are the specs!
Diameter: 14.0mm
BC: 8.6mm
Water: 42%
Life span: 1 month

For a 14.0mm you can't really expect your eyes to be bigger, but for me, I don't really needed that cos I already own a pair of Geomedical lens if I wanted to enhance my IRIS!
I was so excited when I see the lens! I love the kiwi green! It looks like a kiwi doesn't it? And it comes with a limbal ring  which I adore!... so here's my honest review on these lenses!

COMFORT (9/10)
I have to say, the Geo Nudy lenses are much more comfortable compare to my Maxim contact lens. Its not that Maxim is super uncomfortable, but Geo Nudy lens are more comfortable. Though I managed to use it for more than 9 hrs and realised that my eyes were feeling very tired!


Cos I thought since it's not really a "circle lens" I could wear it more than 8 hrs.. I guessed it depends, cos for Freshkon colors, you can wear it to a max of 12hrs!

COLOR/DESIGN (10/10)
I love love love love love the design so much!



It has a very nice green which I love, and honestly this green is much lighter and brighter color compared to my Geo Nudy Soul - kiwi!!! The color is more vibrant!!! I thought I will never find any other green lens that can match my Geo Nudy Soul, but I was wrong!

This is probably my favourite pair of Kiwi green lens!!!

ENLARGEMENT (7/10)
If you are thinking of buying these lens for enlargement, I will suggest you grab the Nudy Soul series or you can purchase the Maxim Contact Lens - the orange box series - Bigger Color Eyes! Their diameter is at least 14.5mm!

My sis is wearing the Big Gray and had tried the Big Brown before! It looks good on her!

Ok, camwhore time! 
What I like about these lens is that, the color is obvious, but its not like IN YOUR face kind!... Like my freshkon cool green, it was too opaque and even during the night people will notice that I'm wearing them. 

As for Maxim Contact Lens, Big eyes version - Kiwi, it's very subtle green and looks great, indoors, outdoors, the sun or during the night!


Just had a hair cut. I hated it when I trim my hair! Very difficult to manage! OKAY!... I'll have another review on a beauty product soon!

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
