At Funky Lenses, our range of Natural Contact Lenses provides options for a wide variety of different eye colors to create a transformative result, but which are best for your natural eye color? Through this guide, we will take you on a journey to discover which colored lenses and which specific products will provide a successful alteration to your natural tone. 

Choosing Contact Lenses For Dark Colored Eyes

It can be a challenge to conceal the natural tone of dark coloured eyes such as brown and hazel, however, our range of natural contact lenses for dark eyes can provide a unique and effective change to the natural color. There are a few different characteristics to take into consideration when choosing a lens type to cover your natural dark hue. 

Opaque contact lenses

Due to the dark pigmentation of these deeper hues, it is best to avoid enhancement tint lenses. These offer a small amount of pigment that won’t provide much of a difference to dark colored eyes. Instead, opt for more opaque lenses. This lens type will offer a more solid pigment which is more likely to cover the natural tone; our range of Dolly Contact Lenses is available in bright shades such as blue and violet, offering a transformative change to your natural eye. This style of contact lenses also includes a dark limbal ring; this enhances the vibrant colour of the lens even more, providing a dramatic natural result.

Key colours for dark eyes

If you are looking to change the colour of your natural eye but with a more realistic approach there are certain coloured contact lenses for dark eyes that work best.

Natural blue lenses are often very light in pigmentation so it is best to explore highly pigmented blue contact lenses for dark eye colours. Aqua blue shades embody a blend of green and blue tones which create a beautiful natural change for dark eyes. The Two Tone Aqua Mystic Natural contact lenses offer a blend of aqua tones with a darkened blue limbal ring for enhancement of color. Choosing a vibrant blue hue will enable a more effective coverage. The Tri Tone Emerald Blue Natural contact lenses feature a bright pigmentation using a blend of light and darker blue tones; the soft blend of these colors creates a natural and impactful transformation on darker eyes.

Choosing pale green contact lenses often means your lenses will feature a more opaque design. The Siren Green Cosplay lenses feature a mint green hue with a dark limbal ring that blends into the green colour adding to its natural appearance. Alternatively, the Tri Tone Green Natural contact lenses feature a blend of light and dark green tones to enhance the natural look. The addition of multiple tones provides this contact lens with more coverage and in turn, creates a more successful result on dark eyes. 

When choosing grey contact lenses to cover your natural dark tone, try light steel-like or platinum tones to create a worthy finish. The light tone of these lenses, especially highly pigmented, will appear more vibrant on dark eye colors. Consider the Evening Gray contact lenses for a well-performing option. Whilst opaque in coverage, these lenses also feature natural details around the pupil hole to enhance the realistic appearance. The Silver Bliss lenses are also a great option for grey contact lenses on brown eyes as they are highly pigmented without appearing solid and are a beautiful bright grey tone. Create your grey eye transformation with the soft appearance of these contact lenses. 

Whilst purple or natural violet eyes might not sound correct, 1% of the world's population do have a shade of purple for their natural eye color. If you fancy creating your own take on this rare and beautiful natural eye color try the Tri Tone Violet Natural lenses. Featuring a mix of violet and black tones, these lenses provide a natural yet high coverage finish on natural dark eyes; with the inclusion of detailing around the pupil, these violet lenses are a great option. 

Choosing Contact Lenses For Light Eyes

Choosing lenses for light colored eyes such as light blue and light green can be easier to cover, however, to cover the natural eye color completely it is best to go for those that are much brighter and pigmented. Again, opaque or more solid styles are likely to cover your natural tones such as the Dolly Contact Lenses or the Tri Tone lenses. 

Another way to wear natural contact lenses is to create enhancement of your natural color. If you are hoping to enhance your own natural light-colored tone, try out these suggestions. 

The Blend Green Natural contact lenses feature an emerald tone that provides a light coverage of green pigment that deepens the overall tone of natural light green eyes. Alternatively, these lenses can also be used on darker green eyes to provide a blueish-green tone. Another great pair of color enhancing contact lenses are the One Tone Green Natural lenses; featuring a light green hue and deepened limbal ring hue, these lenses create a new green tone for you to enjoy. 

Whilst you may not think you can enhance the tone of brown eyes, shades such as hazel and honey can easily be enhanced with both deeper and lighter-toned brown lenses. Try the Blend Hazel Natural lenses to give your deep hue some dimension and alteration in tone. On the other hand, if you wish to change the tone of your light-colored eyes there are plenty of brown hues to choose from; Morning Coffee Brown Natural lenses feature the rich colors of a warm cup of coffee and transform the shade of light-toned eyes whilst providing a subtle change to dark brown hues. 

Enhancing blue eyes with natural colored contact lenses is a highly effective solution. With plenty of blends to choose from, you can experience a range of different color variations and depths. The Solar Blue Natural lenses provide a bright finish on nearly all eye colors; the light pigment enhances the tone of light blue eyes whilst when applied to darker blue eyes, the color adds a wealth of depth through pigment. For a more subtle change, the Two Tone Dusky Blue Natural contact lenses offer a less intense pigment with a cool blend of light blue detailing and a darker limbal ring for enhancement. 

With all of these different colors and tones to choose from, it’s now time for you to make your decision on your new eye color.
