I have naturally dark brown eyes and sometimes when I want to create a more dramatic look, I wear coloured contacts. Freshlook Colourblends are my favourite contact lens brand and type. Out of the few I’ve tried (Freshlook Colourblends, Freshlook Colour Opaque, GEO Angel Colour, GEO Nudy), Freshlook Colourblends provides the most natural coloured contacts. It comes in a variety of colours and they are very comfortable to wear; my eyes rarely get dry when wearing them even after a 7-8 hour day. The colour I wear most of the time is Amethyst because there is a slight hint of purple in my eye colour but it makes my eyes look less tired and more “watery.”
Here are some eye charts in different lighting; the first is of my natural eye colour, the second is of me wearing Amethyst with no makeup and the third is of me wearing Amethyst with makeup.
As you can see the effect isn’t very dramatic, but it still makes my eyes look bigger and brighter. I also found Amethyst matches best with most of the makeup that I wear, which is convenient because I don’t have to choose a specific contacts colour depending on my makeup of the day.
With all contact lenses, you NEED to talk to your optometrist to see if the brand/product is right for you. I buy my contacts from Clearly Contacts (they do price match, and Coastal Contacts is a lot cheaper so you can price match with them even though they’re the same company). You can also see more eye charts here. I just recently ordered more boxes of Amethyst as well as Turquoise and Pure Hazel.
