This contacts has a very soft and blurred effect. It isn’t meant to cover your real eye colour entirely but blend in with it instead and give you a soft, misty-eyed look. There are no stark limbal rings or iris patterns, so it is kept soft and dreamy!
This colour is very beautiful and a bit like a ‘my eyes but better’, with a little hint at something different that people can’t help but take a second look at! The soft edge helps smoothen out and give your eyes a very fairy-like vibe, and it’s so so lovely for everyday looks.
My one gripe is that the graphic diameter is slightly too large for my eyes, so for the brown shade, it looks like I have a slightly red ring around my eyes.
I would perhaps compare this lenses to Russian Smoky Brown, but Tint-I Brown is warmer.
The gray is a very soft and natural shade, perhaps one of the most natural greys I own from OLENS. The soft watercolour-like blending is very beautiful and the colour tones still let my natural eye colour shine through.
I think I will definitely have to wear this grey in the future! The closest grey to it in my collection is probably Eyelighter Glowy Ash Gray, but without the limbal ring effect.

Heyo~ I have done quite a few reviews for OLENS, and this time round I want to delve into a more targeted review (including some beautiful makeup looks I have styled!) with two of my favourite OLENS contacts– Scandi Olive and Vivi Ring Brown.
If you have read some of my other reviews, you will know I am always raving about a couple of staple shades in my contact lens lineup that I can’t live without! I’m a paying customer for OLENS too, because I love their lenses so much. I particularly love natural colours that elevate my dark brown eyes and give them a little oomph without looking too unnatural- I often get so many compliments and a lot of people think they are my real eyes lol (especially in the UK!)

I know I say this in almost every review, but the Scandi Olive is my eternal favourite and I get compliments on it all the time– people have asked if it is my natural eye colour a few times! It’s not too in your face, like my eyes but better (MEBB? lol).
If you’re afraid of it being too obvious, don’t worry. Indoors, it looks almost brown/hazel– from my experience, you can only tell it is green under bright sunlight.
I wouldn’t say this shade is very green, but like a more natural version of the Scandi Hazel that tends to look quite orange. If you are looking for a contact lens that is more obviously green, try the Russian Smoky Olive (view my review HERE). I love both!
Its flawless and subtle graphic diameter and creamy colour will bring a positive radiance and give off fairy vibes in your eyes.

This contacts is so so subtle!!
Do you know which side is my real eye colour? Answer: Right
It is so subtle and pretty, I love it so much- it is pretty much identical to my eye colour, but I have lighter eyes tbh. For very dark eyes, I feel like this would be the perfect ‘my eyes but better’ shade if you don’t want anyone to know you are wearing coloured contacts!
If you want a bit of a change but aren’t that daring with blue or purple or crazy colours, this is the shade for you. The soft edge helps smoothen out and give your eyes a very fairy-like vibe, and it’s so so lovely for everyday looks.
This brown doesn’t look ‘orange’ which is my gripe with many brown contact lenses, and looks very natural in photos as well.
However, if your eyes are naturally blue/ green/ gray, you might want to opt for the Vivi Ring Choco instead.
With naturally dark brown eyes, they look practically identical, but Choco has more warm/ orangey-pink tones that will help neutralise blue tones for a natural brown colour.

These contacts are very unlike anything I’ve tried. This range boasts a dramatic graphic pattern that is made to stand out- the bright colours are perfect for dramatic Halloween looks, nothing natural about this one!
As always, their lenses are very comfortable to wear, and this comfort allows for dressing up for a full night with no discomfort or dryness.
Doesn’t dry out my eyes even after a full day’s wear under air-conditioning. I’ve shopped at other brands like TTDEYE or Pinky Paradise, and Olens is by far the most comfortable.
Reasonable price for the quality
Fast shipping worldwide (DHL express). Honestly the fastest shipping I’ve ever experienced. My parcel arrived in just under 3 days after the dispatch notice 🤩
Good customer service and quick responses.
Regular promotions, making it more affordable. I usually stock up when they have bundle deals or discounted prices, and purchase more then so it lasts me quite a while before my next purchase.
Very handy search and recommendation options on the site. I usually prefer searching by bestsellers to see if there are any new designs or deals I have missed out on, but there is a handy #FindMyOlens tab that lets you compare numerous styles with customer images. Which brings us to the next point-
Lots of customer reviews and real-life photos to check before purchasing, so low risk of the style looking totally unlike what the promotional pictures show. I can’t stress this enough!! This is what I always look out for when I buy a new style, especially if I’m going to be buying several pairs.
Vampire Red
This contacts has some of the largest graphic diameters I’ve personally sampled. The outer ring has a soft limbal ring effect, and the red graphic pattern is bright, with swirling bloodshot patterns and delicate iris patterns to avoid it looking too flat and ‘unnatural’.
Obviously, this colour is not meant to blend in in any sense, but I appreciate the varying patterns that help mimic our natural eyes and this helps the bright colour not appear cheap and one-dimensional.
The contact lenses were very comfortable to wear and did not scratch at my eyes or cause any clouding effect like the ones you get with brightly patterned/ more opaque lenses.
Vampire Silver
This silver lens is SUPER DRAMATIC and has a stark grey-blue-green colouration which really emphasises the otherworldliness of the makeup look you would go for. This patterning reminds me more of a much brighter Secriss 3con Natural/ Coral Gray, but with a dramatic limbal ring.
I have none of the issues I got with other lenses that have dramatically lighter shades due to the large graphic diameter. The issue I had previously with lenses such as the Scandi Light Gray was that it contrasted quite a bit with my natural eye colour, so even the slightest shift in the lens would reveal my natural colour.

I hope this review helps to break down the shades available in the Eyelighter Glowy range 🤗 I would honestly BUY THEM ALL to try!! They are all magnificent in their own way and it is so hard to choose a favourite until you wear them yourself.
Overall, I think OLens have really outdone themselves with this range and all the shades really mimic how these eye highlights colours would look like naturally. You can see the difference when you compare them side by side to the previous ranges! I thought the previous lenses were amazing, but the highlights on this range is *chef’s kiss*
These shades have bumped up to my favourites list immediately, alongside my trusty Scandi Olive and Vivi Ring Brown. If you are someone who prefers natural, everyday lenses, I highly recommend checking this range out!

It’s been a really tumultuous time and I have been so bogged down with work lately and falling ill on and off with the erratic weather, I have been meaning to review the new Eyelighter GlowyOLENS range but just didn’t have the time to do so!!
I’m sure you’ve been seeing lots of ads going around with their new range and let me tell you- it is so beautiful! All of the shades are really beautiful in their own way and I can already see myself wearing them out with different looks.
Every single colour I have tried from this range is so beautiful and wearable, they are definitely great everyday contacts. Brown and Black are of course classic styles that are really natural and if you didn’t look into my eyes up close, you would possibly miss it! It just adds a little something something and makes your eyes look glowy and bright!

These contacts are quite similar to OLENS Cherry Moon Brown/ Gray, with very similar material, water content, and graphic diameter/ style. However, these contacts are slightly darker in shade and are excellent for people with dark brown eyes and are not comfortable with bright/ significantly different colours.
This range boasts a realistic highlight effect and deep edge line make your eyes look more multi-dimensional. Multiple shades are blended in for a soft shading and highlight, to fake the light catching your eyes even without direct light! As with all other OLENS contact lenses, they are very natural, very beautiful, and super comfortable to wear.
Doesn’t dry out my eyes even after a full day’s wear under air-conditioning. I’ve shopped at other brands like TTDEYE or Pinky Paradise, and Olens is by far the most comfortable.

Eyelighter Glowy Black
This black contacts are half black, half brown in shading. The graphic diameter is not very huge, which makes it look quite natural, and the soft outer limbal ring gives a very subtle enlarging effect without looking too ‘dolly’ or unnnatural. It covers my dark brown eyes perfectly!
I think if you want a natural look that is appropriate for the workplace, this contact would be an excellent choice. Many natural everyday contacts tend to be brown, which is a lovely choice but perhaps may not suit everyone’s preferences.
I think it looks more ‘serious’, but gives you a very fresh and rejuvenated feeling lol. Like you got a full night’s sleep even though in reality you are dying at work at 8am in the morning 🤣
The colour mimics the subtle differences in your natural eye colour and really helps with highlighting the natural eye highlights. The patterns and colour differences help the contacts blend in with your natural eyes a bit more too, and it looks really seamless!
Eyelighter Glowy Brown
I think this brown contact lens is one of my favourite brown lenses, along with Russian Smoky Brown and Vivi Ring Brown! These browns are my favourites because they solved a lot of the problems I had with many brown contact lenses. 😰
A lot of brown contact lenses have mixed in yellow, orange, or reddish shades, and when added on top of my natural brown eyes, sometimes look a bit orange under certain lighting. I’m sure it would look nice on perhaps blue or green eyes, but when added to brown eyes, you can see this effect under bright light.
So how does this Eyelighter Glowy Brown do compared to the other two browns I love?
Russian Smoky Brown is more ashy-brown, with a very soft colour. It is definitely the least ‘natural’ in the sense that people will notice it instantly! This light brown shade entirely covers dark brown eyes. The realistic iris pattern lines in the lens design helps it blend in very naturally with my dark eyes. There is no limbal ring effect from your natural eye colour underneath the lenses due to the wider diameter on the Russian Smoky lenses, just like the Russian Velvet range.
Vivi Ring Brown and Eyelighter Glowy Brown are more subtle and work in different ways.
Vivi Ring Brown is a very soft shade of brown, with warmer tones than the Russian Smoky Brown. It is lighter under bright light, without looking too orange or reddish. If you would like a younger everyday look, this is the contacts for you!
This contacts has a soft, powdery limbal ring effect that seamlessly blends into your natural eyes. The colouration seems more obvious under bright light, but it looks almost identical to my normal eye colour indoors.
You can really see the highlighting effect of Eyelighter Glowy Brown when placed next to the other two brown contact lenses. It looks like a really upgraded and premium version (love how they keep coming up with even better and better designs!), and the lighting is so beautiful in all the photos. It’s like an extra twinkle in your eye!
Personally, I prefer the brown over the black on my eyes, I think it helps me look young and is so nice for romantic looks! It is quite hard to tell the difference in person, but I find myself reaching for the brown shade a little more.
I would recommend both shades for people who want to have natural-looking and bright eyes. I think you will need to try them out yourself to really decide which is your favourite!
Eyelighter Glowy Ash Gray
I don’t quite know how to describe this unique shade of grey- it is quite unlike any of the greys I have purchased from Olens previously! It is definitely one of the darker greys I own, and it is a lot more natural with super soft edges. This helps to accentuate the lighter colour a little more without it looking unnatural on dark eyes.
I prefer this over many lighter greys I own, such as the Scandi Light Gray. This has a soft edge blending to make it super natural, and the colour blends in with my natural colour more seamlessly. The issue I had previously with the Scandi Light Gray was that it contrasted quite a bit with my natural eye colour, so even the slightest shift in the lens would reveal my natural colour.
Look at the difference! It looks so soft and natural, but the difference in colour of the grey really gives you that ~exotic~ look lol. With this grey, it also does not stand out as much compared to the Russian Velvet Gray or the Russian Smoky Gray for example, and it is a more wearable shade for daily wear. Look at that little subtle highlight! Love it!!

HELLO FAM!! I’m screaming because I’m so excited!!!
I’m back with another OLENS review! Olens Global reached out to me again with the opportunity to try out their new range, the Russian Smoky OLENS range!
Let me tell you how excited I am to write this– every single colour I have tried from this range is so beautiful and wearable, I have already worn them out a few times! While I have sampled quite a few contacts of every colour, not all of them are as wearable for everyday looks as this one! I think this entire range will definitely be one of the hot favourites for sure.
P.S. If you haven’t read my previous review on the OLENS Scandi range, I would highly recommend checking that out first HERE. I have also reviewed their Russian Velvet series and the BlackPinkseries, so if you’re due a major shopping haul soon– happy reading! I hope my comparisons will help you decide 😎

Immediately, I noticed a few differences– the new Russian Smoky range is 0.6mm bigger in graphic size compared to the Russian Velvet range, which covers the full iris area even more.
What I love about this new line is that it is a little similar to the OLENS Scandi range, with natural blended shades and a soft edge line so it blends in to your natural eye colour very well with no harsh or unnatural edges.
In my opinion the colours are even more beautiful than the Russian Velvet range as there is an extra dimension of depth and patterning! ✨
Not to mention the material is Puscon too, with a higher water content of 48%. They are super comfortable and while you definitely shouldn’t wear them for hours and hours, I experienced no discomfort while wearing it for the entire day to work as well. Definitely an upgrade!!
Comfort for hours with PUSCON instead of Silicone hydrogel, doesn’t dry out my eyes even after a full day’s wear under air-conditioning. I’ve shopped at other brands like TTDEYE or Pinky Paradise, and Olens is by far the most comfortable.

Russian Smoky Olive
This green covers my dark brown eyes perfectly and I would say it is a more ‘true green’ than the OLens Scandi Olive. I have always raved about the Scandi Olive, but I find myself becoming a little swayed by this colour!
The Russian Smoky Olive lenses have a subtle iris patterning with green and brown that you can really see if you come up close.
This is a true, soft green that you can see in many people with natural green eyes and OLens has truly outdone themselves this time!!
The colour mimics the subtle hazel shifts near the centre in natural green eyes and the green is not unnaturally bright. Super natural and flattering!
The patterns and colour differences help the contacts blend in with your natural eyes a bit more.
Due to the larger graphic diameter, it covers more of your natural eye colour than the Scandi Olive, so you don’t get the ‘limbal ring’ effect where the outer ring is slightly darker.
To avoid any unnatural ‘boundary’ between the contacts and your natural eye colour, there is a soft grey edge line over the darker olive colour.
This helps to accentuate the lighter colour a little more without it looking unnatural on dark eyes.
I think the Scandi Olive is the more natural option, but the Russian Smoky Olive is finally the perfect true soft green lens I can reach for without it looking too bright or unnatural.
Even before I wrote this post, I showed it to my friends and two of them bought this colour immediately (LOL). This shade will definitely become one of my most reached-for lenses for sure!
Russian Smoky Brown
I think this Russian Smoky Brown solved a lot of the problems I had with many brown contact lenses. A lot of brown contact lenses have mixed in yellow, orange, or reddish shades, and when added on top of my natural brown eyes, sometimes look a bit orange under certain lighting.
I’m sure it would look nice on perhaps blue or green eyes, but when added to brown eyes, you can see this effect under bright light.
This Russian Smoky Brown colour is more ashy-brown, with none of the orange or red iris patterns other contacts usually add in. I fell in love with this shade instantly! Usually, I tend to go for olive or grey shades, but this brown is just so beautiful.
The Russian Smoky Brown is a light brown shade that entirely covers dark brown eyes. The realistic iris pattern lines in the lens design helps it blend in very naturally with my dark eyes.
Unlike the Scandi series, there is no limbal ring effect from your natural eye colour underneath the lenses due to the wider diameter on the Russian Smoky lenses, just like the Russian Velvet range.
Unlike the Scandi Olive vs Russian Smoky Olive, I would say this Russian Smoky Brown actually looks even more natural than Scandi Hazel for my eyes.
Scandi Hazel tends to look a little yellowy-orange, especially under bright lighting, and the ashy tones in Russian Smoky Brown help tone down the orange shades while keeping it looking light.
If you want a natural colour that still looks different from your usual dark brown eyes, I would recommend this shade for people who want to have natural-looking and bright eyes. It is very suitable for romantic, girly looks without coming off as too different or unnatural!
This brown shows up perfectly in pictures without looking dark or black like normal dark brown eyes. I think it will be very popular for Japanese-inspired looks!
Russian Smoky Gray
I don’t quite know how to describe this unique shade of grey- it is quite unlike any of the greys I have purchased from OLens previously! It has the soft tones and colouring of the Scandi Light Gray lenses, with a very soft and natural edge.
I prefer this over the Scandi Light Gray as the graphic diameter is a lot bigger, with a soft edge blending to make it super natural.
The issue I had previously with the Scandi Light Gray was that it contrasted quite a bit with my natural eye colour, so even the slightest shift in the lens would reveal my natural colour.
😢
This isn’t an issue with Scandi Olive or Scandi Gray for example, as their darker colour meant the edging blended very nicely with my natural eye colour to give a soft limbal ring effect, but the contrast is quite obvious with the Scandi Light Gray.
Look at the difference! It looks so soft and natural, but the lightness of the grey really gives you that ~exotic~ look lol. This is definitely a shade that stands out! But I think this is a whole lot more natural than the Russian Velvet Gray or Blue, or the Scandi Light Gray– most people with blue eyes have them look blue/ grey under different lighting conditions, instead of a vivid blue like the Russian Velvet Blue.
