Circle Lens Review - GEO Grang Grang Brown


Hi everyone, long time no post! I definitely have not abandoned this blog, life has just been busy lately. Meanwhile, here's my long-overdue review of GEO Grang Grang Brown (what a fun name to say), sponsored by MukuCHU. :)

Grang Grang Brown is a lens with a dark brown outer ring and a lighter, almost honey-brown inner main color with dark brown spikes throughout. I think they make my dark brown eyes really "pop" without looking too unnatural, and girls with lighter hair color would look awesome with these lenses IMO.

Enlargement-wise, the Grang Grang are pretty decent in size, but since the outer ring is a softer dark brown, they do not look freaky at all.

Next I will be comparing the Grang Grang with my two favourite "Natural" lenses. First up are the Neo Dali Extra Brown, which I have been wearing a lot. The Grang Grang are definitely lighter and makes my eyes look almost glowing, but the Dali give better definition to my eyes.

 Compared to the popular EOS Max Pure brown, the Grang Grang are more golden in tone while the Max Pure are slightly grayish. Enlargement is pretty equal though.

Here are all the lenses worn in this review. Clockwise from the top: Grang Grang brown right side up, Dali Extra brown, Grang Grang brown upside down, Max Pure Brown.

FINAL VERDICT:
Design: 9/10 - I love the honey-brown color and the dark brown outer ring and spikes
Enlargement: 8/10 - Decent enlargement, but looks quite natural even without makeup
Comfort: 8/10 - Just the usual thickness of GEO lenses, no discomfort so far
TOTAL: 8.5/10 - As I said before, these would be great for girls with lighter hair colors who want a more natural lens :)

Thank you MukuCHU for the sponsorship!
