Have you ever wanted to try colored contacts? I have. No kidding. I mean, yeah, when I was in college, I used to secretly poke fun at one of our classmates who wore purple contact lenses (she's Asian, by the way), and claimed that they were her real eye colour! But now, after looking at many pictures of lovely Asian women who wear coloured contact lenses, I'm itching to give it a go.


Today it is easy because you can just order them directly over the internet. Colored contacts have really increased in popularity the last couple of years, you can see a lot of celebrities use them and they are a great resource for changing your apparel drastically for a time.

Before buying the lenses it’s important to know however that the effect of the different lenses varies heavily depending on your own natural color.

For instance a person with dark eyes has to use an opaque contact lens if they want to change the color to blue. While a person with natural blue eyes use a tinted lens which enhances the natural color of the eye.

Another cool thing today is that you can find colored contacts in more unusual colors and not just the “natural” colors.

A great thing about colored contacts is that you can buy contacts both with and without any type of correction so everyone can use them. They also have a special UV protection to shield the eye from UV rays.

Anyways, I'm thinking of grey lenses. Apparently they can make your eyes look haunting. Now that's something I'd love to try. Bewitching eyes ... hmmm ... :p
