I wore Illusions Soft Blue forever before they recently discontinued them. Also wore Natural Touch but they are no longer available either. Now I love Adore Bi-tones, gray and aqua are my faves, super comfy on the eye and affordable. Also just got in Solotica hidrocor in graphite, but the next ones i order will either be the Naturals or the hidrocharmes because they both have the limbal ring, hidrocharmes have a heavier one than naturals. Ordering Topazio in Solotica Naturals tonight.

Thanks, dixiehelps. Let's hope they don't discontinue any more of you favorite contact lens brands.

Hellooo everyone

I'm new here and I tried researching some posts to get some help about the solotica's, and this looked the most active to me. ok so I have green eyes, but they're kinda dull. I would like to achieve a more vibrant green. I'm thinking of trying out the solotica's hidrocor.. they looked the most natural to me. any suggestions ??

I appreciate all your responses.

This sounds like something that should be the beginning of a new thread, not post number 103 in this one. I hope you don't mind scrolling past over a hundred other posts before you get to this one.

If you want something really vibrant, Lens.com has a novelty lens called "Angelic Green."

For something a little less intense, how about FreshLook Dimensions in Sea Green?

I hope that helps, lensesforme.

lensesforme · #**106** (**permalink**) 10-26-2011, 04:53 AM

thanks a lot sandistix

yes i know

but I dont know how to post a new thread yet so I found the most active one hehe. thanks for your advice

i tried the sea greens, looked to dark. and the angelic ones looks more of a Halloween Lens to me. have you tried any of the soloticas?

samrina · #**107** (**permalink**) 11-14-2011, 12:52 AM

this is natural colour Solotica Esmeralda. They are quite natural and a thousand times more natural looking than Freshlooks. If anybody is interested, I bought them from quicksales.com.au >> $99

lensesforme · #**108** (**permalink**) 11-14-2011, 04:02 AM

That looks pretty close up to me. I don't know how much closer we can get without actually seeing samrina's retinas.

You're right though. Those lenses look really good. Of course, samrina is very beautiful in general and she's have to wear some pretty crummy contact lenses to look bad. Her eyes look very clear. I didn' t see any redness at all, which is rare on this website.

What a nice thing to see on a Monday morning.

samrina · #**110** (**permalink**) 11-14-2011, 05:04 PM

Thank you lens and oingo... that's very sweet of you....

Lensesform... what you see is pretty much what you get. Without makeup they look a tiny little unnatural than what you see here, I guess the eyeliner makes a difference but for its price, they should be anybody's first choice... I'm a hundred percent satisfied with them and wouldn't go for any other brand unless I'm willing for pay well over $300 for 9mmfx which I highly doubt

I already saw those FX ones, and I closed the window as soon as I saw the 500 dollar or so price tag :O what if I dont like them?? would I have the heart to throw 500 down the drain? :O soloticas are my second option, but believe me.. all my strength wore out searching on these lenses. i really want to get the right color

these look really good on you, and by close up I meant if someone is sitting very close to you and looking deep into your eyes

Wow, looking good, samrina. Does that ".au" part mean that you bought those lenses in Australia?

Yes, gorgeous, although I did notice that your eyes look just a teensy bit red in the first picture. Is that unusual for you?

samrina · #**119** (**permalink**) 11-17-2011, 05:04 PM

Lenses ur so sweet thank u and thank u Auto.... My eyes go a little red after i come out of the shower lol... Otherwise it has nothing to do with the lenses, they are very comfortable ..Thank you guys

So that's a freshly-showered samrina we're seeing? Did yo just get finished putting your contacts back in when that picture was taken? That might explain the redness.

Let's not dwell on that one slight imperfection on a very beautiful picture. It's like wondering why the Mona Lisa doesn't have any eyebrows.

Mona Lisa was kinda beastly, IMO. I never even noticed she has no eyebrows!

Samrina, on the other hand, is very pretty, and the Esmeralda lenses look amazing. I have some on order, and I'm pretty excited after seeing these pics. Thanks so much for posting them - it really helps to see real-life, non-photoshopped images, especially when you're trying to make up your mind about which color to try.

What is your natural eye color, Samrina? I had thought the Esmeralda's would be a little darker, but maybe it depends on the natural color of the eye? I'm curious to know if you've tried any other colors of the Solotica's. The Topazio ones look like they'd be pretty, and so do the Verde's. The price really isn't that bad when you consider you can wear them for a full year. Ugly FreshLooks cost way more for a year's supply.

Yes, Samrina is very beautiful, contact lenses or not. I'm glad she posted the pictures too, and that you've decide to give them a try, Shamrocker.

As it was spoken: "You remember the Mona Lisa? That dreadful woman with no eyebrows who wouldn't sit still?"

samrina · #**123** (**permalink**) 11-20-2011, 05:09 PM

You guys are so nice. Thank you for the compliment. Make up does wonders and so do contact lenses lol

I don't know who asked but my eyes are a natural dark brown. These contacts are actually quite bright but a beautiful green.

Yes, those lenses are a bright and beautiful green. I can't even tell that you're wearing them over dark brown eyes. They work well.

Do you want to do something brave? You say "make up does wonders and so do contact lenses." Would you be willing to show us how you look without them? I bet you still would look good.

It's okay if you don't want to, I just thought I'd throw it out there and see what happens.
