If you have ordered circle lenses from me, please read on:
* It is your sole responsibility to check with an optometrist to make sure you can wear contacts and you have the right prescription. If you have never worn contacts before or do not have a prescription, please do not wear these lenses.
* If you are not used to wearing contact lens, start out slowly with 2 hours a day then gradually increase the length of time.
* Never ever share your contact lens with anyone.
* Always remember to wash your hand with soap before you handle your contacts.
* Due to the lower permeability of color contacts and circle lens, do not wear them for extended periods of time (do not exceed 8 to 10 hours a day). If your eyes ever get irritated/red/dry, stop wearing the lenses immediately. If the redness/irritation persists, consult an eye doctor right away.
* Keep your contacts as clean as possible. Never wash them or the case with tap water and remember to follow the instructions completely. I highly recommend Ciba Vision’s Clear Care solution. This stuff really cleans and never dries out your eyes!
Custom Purchase
Since circle lenses are primarily available in Asia, I can get a hook up for those are you who are interested in trying them. A prescription from your optometrist will not be required (anyone can get contact lenses in Asia without a prescription) but you will be solely responsible if you do decide to place an order. If you have never worn contacts before, I highly suggest you check with your optometrist and do some research on contact lens usage to decide if this is for you. Regular contact lens users can simply send me their prescription. Please e-mail me at makeup_forlife@yahoo.com for more details.

I LOVE how the Geo Angel’s in brown look.

OMG! Your already-big-eyes look HUGE! I just ordered 2 pairs of Calla (another brand, I think they have a lower base curve which suits me more) in 2 pairs of different brown. I know I should have bought grey as well! But I am running low on cash… LOL.

they look amazing on you!

You have very pretty eyes, I don’t think you need them. But if you really want to wear the contacts, I suggest the brown ones
04/28/2008 at 7:56 pm
Your eyes look very very prettty =D
Hope you will make another cp for the GEO contacts lens soon !

Irene–I think that’s a typo? I usually wash my case with really hot water…if I want to disinfect it I soak it in boiling water and then let it air dry.
04/28/2008 at 9:09 pm
Aww thanks guys! I think I like the brown one better too =)
It’s not a typo. Read this:

And yes Irene, if you have to clean the case, rinse it with the solution – that’s what I do.
04/28/2008 at 10:50 pm
I just received them today! Thank you for ordering them and shipping so quickly. Can’t wait to try them on.
You look gorgeous as usual and your eyes look amazing

It’s nothing but brown eyeshadow (NARS Ashes to Ashes), black liquid liner, false lashes and a peachy blush (MAC Shy Beauty).

i have no idea why my friend’s so addicted to these lenses that she keeps on begging me to find one in shanghai.. now i know.. hmmm.. maybe i should get one too?
it looks great! and u look great in them too!
04/29/2008 at 9:21 pm
the link you give doesn’t say anything about using the solution to rinse the contact lens case? I’ve been wearing contacts for years and my optometrist has always said to just use hot water to clean the case. the solution is only meant for the lenses.
from http://www.allaboutvision.com/contacts/caresoftlens.htm
“Lens cases can be rinsed with hot tap water and dried when not in use.”
Just wanted to put the correct information out there.
04/29/2008 at 9:35 pm
your hair looks really cute here! and the greys look nice too
04/30/2008 at 8:26 am
thanks for all the compliments ladies =)
Addie, you can’t get these in the US. I had a contact in Asia go out there and buy them for us.
04/30/2008 at 9:02 am
Well if you read what I wrote closely, I did not even mention hot water. I just said not to wash them with tap water – how is that a typo? Plus I never disagreed with you. I simply offered another way to clean the case.
http://www.eyecaresource.com/contact-lenses/cleaning/
” Frequently clean the lens case with solution and replace it at reasonable intervals.”
04/30/2008 at 12:04 pm
ok, I couldn’t tell you weren’t disagreeing. Your entry just says not to wash the lens or case with tap water, so I just wanted to make sure people know hot tap water is perfectly ok.
04/30/2008 at 2:00 pm
Hey phyllis,
.
Those look great on you!
I would like to order a pair or two. Are you going to take any more order anytime soon? please let me know

if i have astigmatism can i wear them? ur lens looks so pretty, i want some =]
05/04/2008 at 7:06 am
to contact lens wearers:
i wouldn’t recommend cleaning your lens case OR lens in tap water including hot water. tap water is ok to drink etc but no go for your contacts as they will go into your eyes. they may contain an amoeba called Acanthamoeba which in turn can cause keratitis.
i worked in a lab diagnosing this and it’s unsightly. it’s also amazing the infections people come in that are from improper cleaning of contact lens.
btw, u look really good in both colours phyllis
05/06/2008 at 1:02 am
hi again,
i’m sorry that my question on washing the contact case caused sucha stir!
; )
anyway, phyllis- i actually LIKE the gray contacts on you. People expect asians to have our typical brown coloured eyes. why not have something different, something that stands out?
btw, i’m over in Canada. I’m wondering- can you get these colour contacts here? And in perscription too?

suzie wuzie: what do you suggest to clean the contact case with? because my eyes are very sensitive.
- Irene
05/10/2008 at 3:34 am
hi irene,
i suggest u just give it a good flush out with your contact solution and then let it dry naturally (upside down so nothing can fall in) or wipe it with an extremely clean tissue or wash cloth. hope that helps!

Hi Phyllis,
I was wondering if you’re taking orders for the Geo Angel contacts?
11/11/2008 at 3:48 pm
hi i was wondering how you can tell which side is which..like which side goes onto ur eye?
btw,u look great with brown.

I have a few questions about the circle lenses I just purchased from you. Should I clean them before i wear them the first time or do they already come in a cleaning solution? If i do clean them, how long should they soak in the cleaning solution, or do they just need rinsed? I’ve never worn lenses before, but I did read your disclaimers so I’m aware of the precautions!
Thanks!!!!!
