Beautylenses.com is a new circle lens shop from kpoptown.com, as I can say for now I really recommend them. They're from South Korea but they have very good customer service and I had ordered from kpoptown.com before. Since I lived in the West coast in the U.S they have some pretty fast shipping. About a week and a half to get here in Washington~ Here we go with the review!
So back in December on the day of my birthday which is on the 28th they announced the reviewers for the circle lenses event and also for a $20 coupon for kpoptown. During that period working on the shipping and stuff few days later on new years here in the US, they had finally shipped it and they came safely in my mailbox last Saturday on the 12th. About a week an a few days actually. ^-^
The packaging is nice, safe and secure. Envelope is insulated with bubble wrap and the lenses has also been bubble wrapped for more safety which I find very nice. I also got discount codes for Beauty Lenses and also KpopTown! ^___^ The lenses also comes in with a lens case too, so don't worry if you do not have one.

They also came with instructions on open the vial, how to put on, take out and also take care of circle lenses, this is VERY VERY helpful for those who are new to contact lenses/circle lenses. ^-^
OKAY! Now on to the circle lenses itself!
The Galactic Flash Brown circle lenses that I have here are plano (0.0 power) and they are manufactured from Dueba in South Korea. They are 14.5 mm in diameter, the base curve is 8.8. If you want to be sure about the size fitting, please go visit your optometrist about measuring first! If the lenses are either too big or too small it could ruin your vision and eyes, your eyes are precious and you only have one set of eyes!
ㅠ~ㅠ
Water content is 38~42% and they are the yearly disposable lenses. But I highly recommend that you throw out and order new lenses every 6 months or so, but it really depends on how they are taken care of.
The lenses have that black outer lining to give out some what of a dolly look, the brown is a really nice color, it's more of a caramel brown but in the photo above the are actually soaking so it's what the inside looks like. The outside of the lenses are quite a bit darker. Since I have naturally brown eyes I have one issue about them. They are more lighter than my natural eye color. But it is not much a problem if it is seen far. If you are in a mirror and you're looking at yourself pretty close you will see it difference due to the brown color but it is not much of a bother if you have brown eyes!
This is a photo before inserting the lenses.

I worn these lenses for a few days for about 6-8 hours during school, had no problems at all. To make them comfy throughout the day I used Visine contact drops and it keeps them nice, moist and comfy all day! The other complaint that I also have is that these are a bit more hard to put in unlike my other lenses. It's not that they are bigger but they are more, flexible to say? Time for my verdict for these lenses~
Comfort: ♥♥♥♥♥
These lenses are VERY comfy! I can wear them for many hours (with eye drops designed for contacts). I can put them on par with my GEO Princess Mimi Almond brown lenses and also my EOS Candy brown lenses, and they are the most comfortable lenses I've ever owned. But the Galactic Flash Brown lenses might surpass the comfort level GEO Princess Mimi and EOS Candy brown pairs! So very comfy, I cannot feel them in my eyes.
Color/Design: ♥♥♥♥♡
As for the design and color for these lenses, I find them really cute and nice looking. The black ring gives more of a bigger eye effect and a dolly and natural look. But if you have brown eyes there is this one problem I would like to point out, is very noticeable ring near the pupil area. But it isn't that much of a problem is it's seen not close up~ But in the sunlight they might be seen. The color doesn't blend well as much but if it were a bit faded more they would probably fit more. ^-^ But overall they look very nice. Depending on your natural eye color they can look very nice but that little ring makes it quite noticeable that there are lenses in.
Enlargement: ♥♥♥♥♥
For a pair that are 14.5mm in diameter, I find the enlargement for the lenses to be very good! They kind of look like they could go for a 15mm pair of circle lenses. I have no complaints and I really like the enlargement of these lenses and they make my eyes stand out. ^^
Overall: ♥♥♥♥♥
It was a very good purchase! (okay not purchase since I got them for free) Besides that one little issue I rate these lenses 5/5! Very good, dolly-ish yet a natural look. These lenses are very comfortable, have good design and color and a great enlargement effect! I really recommend these lenses for those who would like a dolly and natural look. ^-^
