en Giorno 1month Gets New "Yokubari Series" in Three Colors with DIA 14.5mm

Shobido Corporation is adding a new series of three colors, the "Yokubari Series," to its en Giorno 1month lineup of colored contact lenses, and will sell it in advance exclusively at the Qoo10 Shobido online store from August 28, 2026 (Friday).

This new series is the first en Giorno product to adopt a DIA of 14.5mm. It combines a thick outer rim with three highlights, and is launched under the concept "Three lights. Cuteness, 360 degrees."

The "Yokubari Series" Is Born with the Brand's First DIA 14.5mm and Three Highlights

According to the company, it was planned to meet diverse needs such as "I like a thick rim that gives a defined look, but I don't want it to look heavy," "I want both a dewy, watery shine and a see-through clarity," and "I want to wear them for everyday, dates and fan activities alike."

The name "Yokubari Series" (meaning "greedy") reflects the wish for you to enjoy every kind of cuteness, including a defined look, a dewy look, clarity and a flushed glow, to match that day's makeup and mood.

Three Features of the "Yokubari Series"

Point 1: en Giorno's first DIA 14.5mm thick-rim design

It is the first en Giorno lens to adopt a DIA of 14.5mm, with a colored diameter of 13.7mm.

The soft thick rim gives the outline of the pupil a striking look, while the inner color and highlights create dimensional eyes. The design stands out up close, and also brings out the impression of the eyes when seen across the whole face.

Point 2: Three highlights for "360-degree dewy definition"

Three highlights that look as if they hold light are placed within the lens. Rather than relying on a single highlight position, the company says it aimed for a design that lets you enjoy a dewy expression even when your gaze or the direction of the lens changes, by creating a sense of light in multiple directions.

By combining the crisp look of the thick rim with the light, watery shine of the highlights, it creates eyes that look well defined without appearing too heavy.

Point 3: Sweet and defined, a flushed glow, delicate clarity. Three colors to choose from

With the same thick-rim, three-highlight design, three colors let you enjoy different impressions. You can choose the "cuteness you want to be" to match that day's makeup, fashion, plans and mood.

  • Yokubari Beige Brown
    A sweet, defined classic color. A soft thick rim is combined with a beige brown that blends easily with the eyes. It balances a sweet impression with a glossy look that seems to hold light, and is expected to be used in a wide range of scenes from everyday wear to dates and fan activities.

  • Yokubari Pink Beige
    It gives the eyes a subtle flushed glow and creates a sweet, blissful impression. A pink nuance is added to a skin-friendly beige base, finishing soft, sweet eyes where the pink does not look too strong and a faint flush is felt from the eyes.

  • Yokubari Greige
    A color that combines delicate clarity with a defined look. A thick rim is combined with a clear greige, a design that makes the outline of the eyes striking even though the color is pale.

    By not emphasizing the coolness of gray too strongly and adding the softness of beige, it is a color that is easy to incorporate even into sweeter makeup.
