Rohto Lycee Contact Eyedrops Review

Going to do a short review of the Rohto Lycee Contact Eyedrops (once again, these ones can be used with contacts on at the same time. Make sure you buy the right one!)
I purchased this on ebay (kind of sketch I know, but look for someone with reliable ratings and located in the same place as where the product is originally sold, in this case, Japan). The other non-contact one looks exactly the same except the box is a slightly darker pink and it obviously doesn't say contact haha.

I already tore off the plastic wrapping in the picture but the actual product and a set of instructions is inside the box. The instructions have basically the same instructions as their other eyedrop products: 
make sure your hands are clean,  use a max of 5-6 times per day with 1-2 drops per eye each time.

Picture of the applicator. Very typical-looking eyedrop applicator haha. But goodness isn't the packaging so cute? It's pink!

I typically use these eyedrops when my contacts are off (or on, doesn't really make a difference) and I use the Rohto Z! Contact Eyedrops when I have contacts on. This one doesn't give the minty effect that the Rohto Z! gives so I think it is suitable for whenever. I find the Rohto Z! a bit too minty to use without contacts and that's why I have this one.

Anyway, I'll talk to you guys soon with another product review (probably)
I haven't been using anything new lately so excuse me for my lack of post-production

Rohto Z! Contact Review

Time for more reviews whoo. I was actually going to wait for another product (which is shipping in the mail) and do the review together but I couldn't wait so I'll thought I'd just separate them.

So a few weeks ago, I decided to look for eyedrops. I wear contacts pretty much every day and usually when I'm out very late and I didn't get a chance to take out my contacts, they start to feel really itchy and kind of bug me. I wouldn't say they get dry but ....hm. So once again, I went to the closest Asian mall (because I've heard of many good reviews of Rohto) and found this for $22.99CAD 


Just a warning to everyone beforehand: Make sure that the eyedrops you're buying is suited to your needs (needs being that you wear contacts and plan to use eyedrops while they're in) A lot of drops are not designed to accommodate eyes that are wearing contacts and can end up damaging your cons. Also, the instructions for this say 1-2 drops in your eyes 5-6 times a day. Don't over-do it no matter how badly you want to. Eyes are not replaceable (or at least I don't think they are) 



Before I start rambling like I always do in my reviews, I'll just give my ratings straight up here:
I honestly don't think I have any complaints whatsoever with this product. Maybe the fact that I've never used eyedrops before kind of changes how I judge this product though. This product helps tired eyes, especially for those who are constantly facing a computer

When you put this product in your eye, I'm not going to lie, it stings a little bit. But it's like a good kind of sting. It feels really minty and refreshed (kind of like when you first start to chew a piece of mint-flavoured gum). Yeah its quite weird describing a feeling on your eyes as minty but there really is no better explanation. You'd describe it the exact same way after using this product

^^^^
convenient little bottle can be stored anywhere (I transfer it from bag-to-bag)

Regardless, I really like using this product and NOT just because it has really cute packaging. I will definitely be trying more of Rohto's eyedrops! Look forward to more reviews. If there are any questions, I'm more than happy to answer them
