Woman NewsLatest Fashion Trends in Color Contact Lenses
Color contact lenses are really hot today. They work better than any eye make-up, making your eyes truly stunning. But there are so many of them! Find out what “eyes” are currently in fashion and how these colors can transform your look.
About half of the people wearing color contact lenses don"t have any vision problems - for them color contacts are just fashion accessories. With color contacts, you can change your eye color to match your mood. Or you can stick with one brand and color that works best for you, and make it a permanent part of your look.
Favorite colors - ocean blue and sea green
The most popular color is blue. Many people with brown eyes dream of having blue eyes and some who are born with blue eyes wish that their natural color was brighter. If you want a truly vivid blue, try Freshlook Colorblends True Sapphire (for dark or light eyes). True Sapphire looks especially stunning if you have dark hair. Durasoft 2 Colors Sky Blue creates a subtle, very natural look. And if you are after a very light blue color, try Illusions Opaques in Soft Blue.
Green is another favorite. Green eyes have always been considered a sign of sexuality, so many gray, blue and brown eyed people get green color contact lenses when they feel wild. If you have dark eyes, opaque lenses like Acuvue 2 Colors Jade Green, Freshlook Colorblends Green or Durasoft 2 Colors Green work really well. To make light eyes green, we suggest Acuvue 2 Colors Enhancers Emerald Green or Durasoft 2 Colors for light eyes Jade Green.
Amethyst also deserves special mention. It is not as popular as blue or green, yet it creates a great mysterious look. It works best for people with dark eyes and medium to dark skin. Unlike blue or green, naturally amethyst (violet) eyes are very rare, so your look is guaranteed to be noticed. Freshlook Colorblends Amethyst creates a very nice effect, and it works equally well on light and dark eyes.

Color contacts that make your eyes look deeper and larger
Changing your eye color is not the only way to brighten your eyes. People who are happy with their natural color can wear “definition ring” contact lenses. The lens is mostly clear, but it has a dark border. This outline gives your natural color more definition, which makes your eyes appear larger and adds depth.
A good example of “definition” color contacts is Freshlook Dimensions by Ciba Vision. Dimensions come in aqua, blue and green. The lens gives your eyes a hint of color and a beautiful impression of depth.
Color contacts - illuminating effect
It isn"t only color that makes eyes stunning. Did you even notice that some people have eyes that sparkle with life and happiness? A similar effect can be achieved with Freshlook Radiance lenses. Starburst patterns imprinted in the lens make your eyes appear sparkling and full of life. These lenses come in Moonlight, Eden, Autumn and Sunrise. As enhancement contact lenses, Radiance give you only a hint of color, but don"t change it. However, illumination makes a big difference and draws attention to your eyes.
