REVIEW - Edit Contact Lenses, Blue 3 Tone.

Hello all~
I am going to appologise.. I haven't been posting/blogging a lot lately, and i'm very sorry, but I do have my reasons! I am now a uni student and i'm so busy. You have no idea (unless you're on my course). I don't have a day off in the week, so my free time is after lectures and weekends, and that's when I hibernate. But, don't worry, I WILL get back into things very soon!

Okay, on with the review!
Today, a friend of mine and myself, went into Blue Banana and I was drawn to their contact lenses. I've always wanted a pair but i've never really gotten around to buying some, BUT TODAY THAT ALL CHANGED!
I bought Edit Contact Lenses in Blue 3 Tone:


Blue Banana stock a good selection of Edit lenses, and Edit do a wide variety, so whether you're into natural looking lenses or crazy ones, Edit will have them for you.

The packaging is simple and small, nothing special at all really.

The bottles came with a sealed top, so you know no one has been poking around them. The box tells you which lens is for which eye, so don't panic! It also comes with a little information booklet which I recommend reading for first time contact users.

I bought Edit solution set too, and this was only £2.99, and it came with tweezers and a lens case as well as the solution itself.


I've worn these lenses for about an hour now, and comfort wise, they're comfy! You will know if you've accidentally popped the lens the wrong way. Trust me. 

Because this is the first time i've ever worn contacts, my eyes are still adjusting and sometimes my vision is a little blurry, but it's nothing major, it's not like i'm blind or anything. I'm going to admit, I was a little tentative at first to put them in. I've seen YouTuber's put theirs in, so I knew how to do it, but when it came to do it myself, I was a bit oo-er about it, but once one's in, you'll be grand~ 
REMEMBER: Change the solution in your lens case EVERY TIME you use them! If you look after them with TLC, you'll get a few good years out of them. 








The top photo is taken with flash, and the one underneath it is taken without.
You probably can't see, but the lens does contain 3 colours: Blue, black/brown, and a very light hazel/green. With the black/brown ring around the contact, it will make your eyes look bigger, even though the millimeter isn't any bigger than your iris. 
With the flash, they're very obvious, not natural looking at all, but I don't mind too much because i'm not going to wear them every day. Without the flash, they look a lot softer and calmer, which I prefer. 

All in all, i'm happy with my purchase! I will be buying more lenses and I will be buying Edit lenses again too~

I'd give these lenses a 7/10.


Thanks so much for reading! It's nice to do a review on something i've never tried before~
