    Yay! :eusa_danc

    Basically my eyes annoy me because i find them boring. I have always wanted to get some colour contacts that can make them look different each day, so i am now planning to get some colour contacts so that i can have a different eye colour each day/week/month. :grin:

    Everybody keeps telling me i am weird for wanting them, but i think they would look mega cool. I know they can be fussy and all, but my mum can teach me how to use them and stuff. :grin: I need your opinions on them first though. :astonished:

    These are the colours i am interested in:

    Opinions? :astonished:

    I'm intending to get a big bulky goth jacket - I found one that is totally the sex, sadly quite pricey though - and the red eyes, then if a chav starts trying to threaten me, I'll just look him in the eyes and see if he freaks out.

    You should research the safety of them. I heard about someone who used those everyday and damaged their eyes so much that they nearly went blind =O It was in the news about 6 months ago I can't tell you any more, sorry

    Well, being one of the people who have used vanity contacts in the past (for the last nine years), I haven't actually had any side-effects from them since I started. I'm not sure if that's due to the fact that I don't wear them daily (usually once a week or less), but they haven't really done anything negative to my eyesight at all. The only thing I'll warn you about is the black one with the white spiral (which I actually have!)... the inner edges of the contact will probably create a black ring around the edges of your vision, so I would not recommend driving with them in! That's probably true for most of the crazier contacts. However, regular color-change contacts don't usually have this problem because they simply blend colors along part of the iris.

    As for what colors look cool, I had the black and white spiral, as I said above. It freaks people out once they get close enough to see, but from a distance it looks gray/blue, which is neat. I wish I had the biohazard ones! I've also had amber/honey colored ones, which were very cool and my personal favorite (nothing like looking wolfish to catch people's eyes). I did bright green as well.

    But what would look awesome would be to mix and match contacts. Put a red one in your right eye and a biohazard in the left. :roflmao:

    o0o, did the colours you have freak people out? :grin: That is what i aiming for with them. :icon_bigg

    I love your idea of mix and matching. :grin: Having two different colour eyes would be uber cool. :eek: :eusa_danc

    Don't worry peeps, i'm not just going to stick any random thing into my eyes. My mum has contacts so she is uber fussy aobut them as well, so no doubt she'll be giving them uber close inspection before i am allowed to use them. That is assuming i get them. I get the feeling my dad is going to try and stop me here. :dry: :stuck_out_tongue_closed_eyes:

    I see you're out to "only a select few," and I've read from a (bad) source that guys who use colored contacts are definitely gay. Just an interesting consideration.

    I've only seen one person use striking contacts like those. I wasn't sure what to say to her, or if I should take her seriously. :lol:

    I like the violet and blue ones, here where I live like most of the girls use color contacts and some guys do too.

    Yeah, every time I wore the colored contacts, people freaked out, even my friends. But that's because my eyes are the most boring color of brown without them, so it comes as a surprise.
