Solotica Contacts

Hi guys! I don't know if any of you are interested in ever dressing up your look with contacts, but for those of you who are, there is one brand I would HIGHLY recommend! Solotica!! I have read up on these contacts and watched a bunch of videos and finally after watching MichellePhan's Aurora video I knew I wanted to get them so I saw the webstore Michelle Phan bought the contacts from and had recommended and decided to check them out. www.wrlens.com. To be taken directly to their Solotica brand click here http://www.wrlens.com/Manufacturer/9-solotica.aspx

While doing research I've heard about a lot of people trying to scam buyers with fake stores, becareful! The store I used is, www.wrlens.com, were quick to respond to all my questions and did a great job shipping! I would definitely suggest them!

Here are some pictures of how they come packaged and what you get inside :D

Yay they arrived!!

                                           
Like opening a christmas present!

                                     
Bubble wrapping protection.


Opening these jars were a little difficult because I couldn't figure out how to do it. That is until I figured out that pretty metal looking top had an arrow. When you get these you push down on the center with your nail to rip that center off and then pull down the covring. The metal looking cover will come off and you'll see this clear/white looking top that comes off and tada! You're contacts are inside and ready to come out :D
 
 

This isn't a very good picture of it but I didn't have a good camera nor good lighting, but at least it gives you a glimpse.

The Solotica brand has several different types of colored contacts as well as 3 options for each. You can get them in Hidrocor, Hidrocharme or Natural Color. The main difference I see is whether it has a  limbal ring or not and the size of the limbal ring.
The Hidrocharme's have a thicker limbal ring:


                                           These below are the Solotica Natural Colors:

And last but not least are the Solotica Hidrocor Colors (Without Limbal Ring):


Here's a video of what it looks like, don't mind the video, I'll have to do a better one but it gives you a glimpse of what the contacts look like on someone.


If you guys want any more information visit Jen Fromheadtotoes blog. She has a lot of info there for you! http://frmheadtotoe.blogspot.com/2008/04/solotica-ordering-info.html

Again I hope this was somewhat helpful!

wrlens.com sent me this helpful information for anyone who's asking what color contacts would look best on their eyecolor.

n this newsletter I will shed light on the logic behind the colors
of Solotica's contact lenses. There are a few basic guidelines that can
explain the match between the color and type of the lenses and the natural color
of the eye.
If you will read this newsletter you will finally know why some type of lenses
look good on dark eyes or light eyes and why some type of lenses simply does
not make any change or the wrong change of color.
After reading this newsletter , you will be able to know what will be the effect
of a specific type of lenses on your eyes.
Although there is some trial and error involved in choosing the best lenses ,
this logic will help you make better decisions regarding the best
color and type of lenses for your eyes.

  15. ^Hey you up there:)
    I ordered my lenses on July 23rd, and today I just recently got the tracking confirmation. So it took about a week for that, and more than likely by now you should've received the tracking information for your lenses. Then again I ordered from Wrlens, so i don't know how lensmarketplace.com works. You should contact them.
    You should be getting them soon:)

  17. Really?! I have been waiting since October 18th and it has been two weeks now and I have yet to receive any tracking number and now I am being told they don't even hold the lenses I ordered and are waiting for an additional company to ship them out and that is going to take processing for them to ship....ugh.....too much confusion. I will never purchase from Wrlens again!
