fynale lens review: y17 in violet and blue


I do wear other brands, I swear... it's just that there are already so many GEO reviews around! One of the series I was most excited for when Fynale relaunched is Y17, so you bet your bippity boppity boo that I decided to spoil myself with two pairs: blue and violet.

The comfort level is still spot on however since they only have a diameter of 14mm, these lenses have a tendency to dry out a lot faster than the others. Another problem that I find with smaller lenses is that they have a tendency to lag a bit, haha! By that I mean if you look one way, the lens will kind of stay on one spot and have to slowly meander over to the iris again, which has a tendency to cloud vision (I also have this problem with my 14.5mm GEO Nudy lenses).

Blue

The design isn't my favourite as well- the promotional images feature beautiful 4 tone lenses, which is what they are- but the colour nuances tend to get a little lost on the eye itself, with only 2 tones clearly visible. The lenses also unnaturally stop at the pupil, which leads to a very fake look. Pigmentation however is A+, providing a very vibrant and vivid look. It's a bit confusing though because the blue ones are dominated with purple, whereas violet is dominated by orange. Whaaaaat?

Violet

These are not my favourite lenses from Fynale because of the size and design, but if you want a bright and popping look, perhaps for a specific cosplay, these will do nicely.
