Pinkicon Mini-Haul + Review

Hi! Today I'm here with a review of Pinkicon, a website that sells contact lenses. Although I'm not a frequent contact lenses user, I had bought some contact lenses in preparation for Halloween. Since I bought something, I thought it would be nice to share my thoughts on this site.

Pinkicon is a store that is based in Hong Kong but also sells their contact lenses online. They have a good selection of lenses (with popular brands such as O-Lens, LIL Moon and Geo). An interesting thing about this site is that they have monthly deals where quite a few of their products go on sale for that month. It's definitely worth checking out what they have on sale!

As for what I bought, I placed an order on the 13/10/17 and after receiving an email about my order being delayed (which I'll get to later), my order arrived on the 27/10/17. So it took around 14 days for this package to arrive.

About the email, I actually received an email about my order in English with very little detail. I was really confused at first so then I replied with an email asking them to send me the message in Chinese and they sent a much more detailed email back in Chinese. I was lucky that I knew people that could translate the message for me and I would definitely say that if you're an English speaker there might be some troubles with communicating with Pinkicon. 

The products arrived nicely with it being packed tightly in a bubble wrap bag. The package also came with my receipt and an instruction booklet on how to put on the lenses and how to remove them. Unfortunately I threw away the package a bit too quickly and by the time I fished it out the booklets were soaked in trash juice.

Here are the lenses I ordered! I got the Select Fairy Street Brown (Daily) and O-Lens The Shining Gray (1 month). These two were the ones that were on discount during October so I decided to try them out. I'll be writing a separate review for these.

For the costs of the lenses they were $27.80 USD together including a $4.62 USD shipping fee. So all together the lenses cost $32.42 USD, which isn't too expensive.

Final Comment: So in conclusion, Pinkicon is a good site if you're interested in buying good quality contact lenses for a decent price.  They also have other products offered (like wigs and fake lashes) but I'm not too sure about those. If I ever need contact lenses again I'd definitely go and buy from Pinkicon again.

Another interesting point to note is that on their website they have a "Beauty Channel" in which they summarize the videos of beauty YouTubers and introduce the contact lenses they use so you can also get the look too! I think that's really handy for those that are unsure of what lenses to buy for what types of looks.

Pros:

• Decent prices
• Decent shipping time
• Good selection of lenses
• Lenses come in good quality and are legitimate

Cons: 

• Customer service might be troublesome if you're not fluent in Chinese
• Site is a bit laggy
