Freshlook Colorblends review


My new Freshlook Colorblends boxes! *happy*

I was really excited when my package of contact lenses arrived! Now, I get to review the Freshlook Colorblends contact lenses =)) In my previous post I have mentioned this will be my first time wearing coloured contact lens. All thanks to MrLens, where I redeemed my contacts and plusizekitten for selecting me to review!!




MrLens is the largest online distributor of contact lenses from Europe in Malaysia now. They were also the finalist in the prestigious Swiss Economic Award in 2008. They are the largest online inventory of Contact Lenses at the lowest price in Malaysia with Free Delivery(for selected areas and purchases above RM50) Look it up here: shipping

The pricing is much cheaper from what you get from the optometrist shops for certain brands. For me, my usual contacts cost so much cheaper, like RM30 cheaper if bought from MrLens. I'm so going to order my contacts online from now on! Cost-effective =)

I heard that they ship really fast as well, like in one day if it's a popular brand or power less than -6.00. I have bad vision(unfortunately), so it took time for my contacts to arrive. It took a little less than 2 weeks for it to arrive as it promised 14 days. Nevertheless, the package arrived safely!

Finally arrived!!




Guess what? So kind of them to add in 3 packets of Fisherman's friend samples as well =)

So, what colours did I choose? *drumrolls*

True Sapphire and Honey! (yes,I photoshopped the power >.<)

I wanted colours that will 'pop', so I decided on these two colours. I mean what's the point of wearing coloured contacts if no one's going to notice, right? =p

In this post, I'm going to review the True Sapphire contacts. I was so excited that I immediately used it when my package arrived! Finally, my eyes get to dress up in colours as well *winks*







True Sapphire


TA-DAH!! *with flash*

*without flash*

I absolutely LOVE it! My eyes immediately transformed into the most mesmerising blue! I never had blu-er eyes before! 

Okay here are the comparisons:

Saw how dramatic my eyes are with flash? If you're worried about how artificial it will look, don't. See the pic without flash. It's actually quite natural looking. Most of my friends thought it's quite natural looking as well =)

If you're not sure, which colours to choose under the Freshlook Colorblends range, go to this website: http://www.freshlookcontacts.com.sg/tryon.html You can try on the colours and here's my experiment:

This was how I was supposed to look!

This is how I actually looked! Similar right?

So, the website is actually quite accurate for you to experiment the colours if you're spoilt for choices of colours and don't know which to choose, like me =)

So many beautiful colours!

I'm such a satisfied customer! Not to mention, it's very comfortable. I wore it for 10 hours straight and 3/4 of the time was in an air conditioned room, but my eyes didn't feel dry at all. And I've just got to relate this experience; I was in class when my lecturer asked me a question and instead of hearing my answer she was swooned over my eyes, and mentioned that my eyes have changed colour *laughs*

This blue contacts got me a lot of attention in just one day of wearing it! Needless to say my eyes were the centre of attention haha

Therefore, I would like to share with you readers about how you can also get eyes like me AND obtain discounts from MrLens. Firstly, they have a Friend Recommendation Program.



Just go to the website, click on the 'recommend a friend' icon and then you can sign in/register and start recommending a friend! Each successful recommendation will get an RM5 voucher for you AND your friend.

More pics =)) None are photoshopped. The colour is exactly what you see...


COMPARISON(clear contacts on the left and true sapphire on the right with same lighting)

with flash

I found the colour is more visible during broad daylight as you can see the 'blue' better where the pictures below demonstrates:

  2. They are so smooth that it is easy to forget you are wearing them, even in challenging environments or if you tend to suffer from dry eyes. So must use Acuvue Oasys.

  3. How many weeks can you wear them? Just got mine and I forgot to asked the optometrist, the saleslady said it lasts for about three months. Is that true?

  4. Hai there, the one above is monthly disposable. However, it is better if you can double check with your optometrist as perhaps there are other variants. Thanks!
