It always looks weird when people where colored contacts... you can always tell something isn't quite right ;) If you want a different look, I suggest you dye your hair instead! Have a pro do it, however :)

As long as they don't look too fake on you, get it. I hate it when people get color contacts and you know that there's no way that those are their eye color.

Get some of the cat eye or mirrored lenses. Now -that- would be fun. (Well, the novelty would likely wear off in an hour or two, but boy howdy those 2 hours would be fun)

Well, if you already wear contacts then there's no reason not to I suppose, as long as it looks okay. It's still not something I probably would do, but I'd give it a shot I guess.

i think they can be cool...i knew this asian girl with blue contacts and it made her look sexy as hell....mmmmm....

no point for me to get them as my eyes naturally change color, depending on the light they change from dark brown to almost yellow...no blue though

Oh man, I hate those brown contacts. I have 2 friends that wear them, and I hate looking at them. They look like devils!!! If you really want some colour, I suggest going with gray, or those ones that have 3 different shades of colour in them.

I have both glasses and contacts. I wear glasses all the time, and contacts only while playing sports.

So true.......I once saw this Chinese guy with green eyes. Ofcourse they were contacts.

:p

If people get them to just accent their own color...then it sorta looks ok. But then what's the point really?

When people try to change their eye color though......lol.....they look pathetic. :D

Oh! if you want to try them go ahead, I personally think it would be fun, I'm just having trouble trying to decide which color to try first !:)

and btw. a lot of people think they're real.. hell my aunt (who i hadn't seen in awhile.. overseas type) thought they were real.. parents friends.. lady at the tag renewel place.. hehe.. anyhow..

i do feel kinda bad knowing they're fake.. i dunno if i should get clear or get blue again when i get a new pair. :(
