Cosmetic Colored Contacts - Effects Lenses For Everyone

By Mike Rigby

People often want to reinvent themselves and change the way they look and ultimately how others see them. Some will take drastic steps to achieve this but most will change only a few things about themselves and leave it at that. Today, people even have the option of changing the color of their eyes with cosmetic colored contacts. Unlike prescription contact lenses, cosmetic colored contacts can be worn by nearly everybody and are available in a wide variety of colors and styles. So whether you want to create that special look for that special occasion or just feel that you would look better with blue eyes, these contact lenses could be the thing for you.

Cosmetic colored contacts have been around for years but were only available to those in the movie industry or theater. Their primary use was for actors to completely look the part. Today these same contact lenses are available to the general public and can be used everyday or for special occasions like Halloween if you want to stand out from the crowd. They are also often referred to as special effects contact lenses or just colored contact lenses.

Cosmetic Colored Contacts For Every Occasion

Special effects contacts are produced in mass or can even be custom made. The only difference between the two is the price. The idea behind each lens can usually be traced back to popular movies and are often associated to a particular character within that movie. An example of this would be the film The Lost Boys.

There are also the generic types of cosmetic colored contacts that look like cats' or snakes' eyes. Wearing these contacts, will completely allow you to look as if you really have eyes like cats or snakes without affecting your normal vision. There are also wolf eye versions available.

For a bolder statement, you could even get special effects contacts that will give you the zombie or blind eye look. These lenses will give the impression that your eyes have been covered with a solid white milky substance and are really life like. The only draw back with these types of lenses is that you cannot actually see through them and therefore most people would rather only wear one lens in order to still be able to move around.

Fire eye contacts are definitely the way to go if making your eyes look like they have totally been engulfed by fire whereas black sclera contacts will give you the look of dead black eyes filled with black motionless oil. You can even use contacts to make your eyes reflect like mirrors or for a bolder look why not try hemorrhaged eye contacts that will give the impression of eyes that are filled with blood

Cosmetic colored contacts can also be used to enlarge your pupils quite considerably or even make your eyes glow in the dark. These are perfect for going clubbing.

Whatever the occasion, purpose or just a simple change, you can rest assured that there are cosmetic colored lenses that will fit any situation. However, it is important to note that although you might not have a vision problem, you will still need to get a prescription from a qualified eye doctor to get cosmetic colored contacts
