Not sure I fancy contacts for cosmetic purposes. I’m quite happy with my natural chocolate brown eyes. May be boring to some, but if it doesn’t need to be in my eye, it ain’t going in! ❤️
I’ve tried colored contacts and they’re so fun. I got the correct prescription strength, so could still drive and not walk into walls.☺️ The brand I use is Desio.
Eye contacts are pretty awful to me. It gives uncanny valley and I just don’t understand why people don’t embrace their natural color. Neutrals uplift your natural color not contacts. I like your content Wayne I hard disagree on this one and that’s ok.
I think it is just a matter of what is conventionally acceptable. I remember the times when nail polish in any shade other than red or pink freaked people out, and now it is just a commonplace.
I was thinking similar ... they looked too ... Bright / Cartoony ... and maybe that's just the camera lighting, but on the video it was kinda Freaky looking ... in person, they could look different though. Idk.
I stopped wearing lenses (for sight) because I had a hard time getting them out. 😮 I'm sure the one's you're wearing are different, but yeah, takes time to get use to. I'd rather wear standout glasses.
I much prefer your natural eye colour, contacts can’t twinkle or sparkle. To me they appear flat and detract from your appearance. Much more attractive without 😊
I love green eyes. A long time ago, I found a pair of greens that looked really natural and I loved them. Of course, not being caucasian and wearing green eye colour, it was clear it was not my natural colour.
Colored lenses are so fun. I haven't had them in a few years but think I'll opt for some aqua when I see my optometrist this year. You look great in anything, dear sir.
Not for me thank you. They don’t look natural to me. I do like my eyes much better, they are brighter and clearer, when I use eyedrops to take all the red out.
As an older woman with brown eyes and salt and pepper hair, I am not sure what color to try - a darkish green perhaps? I have fair skin with an olive undertone and I generally look best in Jewel tone colors.
Wayne i just love your simple tricks. I have blue eyes but dont stand out if i dont have mascara or light eyeshadow. Thanx for this trick u are awesome. ❤

@@izzyjones7108I had to go to a&e to get one of them out. The silly thing is that I'd made my eyeball sore trying to get it out, it turned out that I had in fact removed it but it had fallen on the floor and I couldn't see it. 😮😂
Yes! I've been wearing colored contacts for almost 22 years. They're a shade lighter than my natural brown color. Even my family members forget it is not my natural color. Now that I have developed astigmatism, I'll have to consider just clear to address the issue in the near future.
Hi Wayne do you have a video class about tattoo coverup’s? I have my son’s wedding coming up and the dress i want to wear shows the top of my back tattoo and it would look better if it didn’t. Ive tried to look through your videos but I’m struggling as there are so many. Please help and many thanks in anticipation. Lois.
I cant do contact. It casues me to mess with my eyes and caude pulling of the skin. Looking older in the eyes. I use alot of purples, peach, corals, hold and browns for my gret blue eyes. Like denim
Anyone knows if these work for dry eyes? I haven’t been able to wear colored ones for a good six months cuz my eyes have been so dry lately and won’t take them
I was hoping this was some eye make up trick video :( To begin with, in Canada as far as I know, if there’s no aberration in your vision, you can’t actually coloured lenses
Aww, was hoping for something different than contacts. I just can't wear them because I always have something in my eyes it seems and contacts would just irritate me all day. I have light blonde hair, light skin and pale green eyes and very blonde (invisible) lashes, so I do need eyeliner and mascara so my eyes don't look like they're floating in cream and I disappear in the drapes. lol Sadly, this tip won't work for me.
Unfortunately I have an issue with my cornea. Therefore I can't wear contact lenses. 😢 I wear glasses in certain situations like when I'm driving or when I watch TV. That's why I wanted contact lenses for a while now. But unfortunately I have to stick to my glasses.
Contacts do scratch the eye surface, as a contact lense wearer two decades ago did some harm to my eyes by wearing contact lenses. A very strange suggestion from a makeup artist who has a vast amount of amazing tricks but sadly this one should not be a recommendation.
Did you or have you realized that on camera at least that with the green lenses, your left eye is darker than the right? Not so much or at all with the blues. Perhaps the 'false=blue' color cancels out the disparity whereas the greens, being your eye color accentuates, nothing to cover. You should ask the contact lens company why this is. Since you have such joy with the contacts, it's worth knowing and may save you a few dollars...ergh haha, pounds! I remember the joy I had with my first lenses, no more glasses, YAY, I was a sophomore (10th grade), absolutely boy crazy, thought I was hot shxt because I had a talent for dating college men
Wayne I love you and I always will but why ''if you doon't have the most beautiful eye color and you want it to stand out'' ,I think its personal and it depends on the perso, there so many dark brown/black eyes which are way more vivid and vibrant than the lighter ones, world is beautiful 'cause its different, I wouldnt like Johnny Depp with blue eyes or with those avatar contacts (and I do use contact lenses myself, just to try different looks, not to look more beautiful)
I need contacts to see, and because of my weird eye RX, they don't make colored contacts. Makes me so mad! My eyes are three different colors. Green, blue, AND brown. I'd LOVE to get colored contacts. Then I can pick ONE color...not be stuck with three! People are so silly about contacts though. They don't hurt, are not difficult to put in, take out OR CLEAN. These days we have one day wearables, so you don't even HAVE TO clean them..plop in the trash, and grab a fresh pair! Oh well, like most things...those who know the least about something have the most absurd, incorrect, and dramatic opinions!
I already wear contact lenses because I need to. 😉 They are light blue because of some filters (blue-scrren, uv,...) . My natural color is tricolor. Brown on the inner ring, than green and the outline is blue. I love my natural eye color and they look so special, but the contact lenses just make the beautiful color pale. 🫤
People have to be careful wearing nonprescription contacts & learn how to properly clean & store them to prevent eye infections!! You can also get microscopic scratches on your eyes that over time can cause problems!
@@cherrymetha3185 Yes but they teach you how to do everything & what products to use. Prescriptions are checked extensively for defects & I’m not sure those sold online just for eye color are!
@@cherrymetha3185yes, either prescription or cosmetic lenses can predispose you to corneal abrasions - not really from the lenses themselves but from your accidentally scratching your eyes putting them in or removing them. Many years ago, all we had were the hard lenses and they were awful! Corneal abrasions hurt like hell.
@@elisaastorino2881 Thank you for replying and the info . I’m put off buying contacts now due to the corneal abrasions . Gosh I can imagine how much pain you were in as even accidentally poking oneself in the eye is very painful ( Yes I’m charmingly clumsy …..well actually there’s nothing charming about it ! lol! )
Cosmetic contacts in the US can only be legally dispensed by someone who has FDA approval. (Optometrists, etc) Every. Other. Vendor. is selling them illegally.
I’ve worn contacts for a good 35 years. I never bought colored lens, contacts are not that great for your eyes. Can dry them out quicker, cause scratches when taking out, vision may not be as good. If I didn’t need them, I should would not wear them
Oh god no, not for me. I tried so many different contact lenses and I had a constant feeling that I have something in my eyes. I am 45 and still using eyeshadow just much less than I was younger and it seems to work fine.
I have tried to wear contacts over the years but my eyes are too dry. I have a very boring eye color, kind of a mix of gray/green/brown that looks muddy and I always wished I could wear colored lenses. I'm so jealous!
I used to wear light brown / hazel non prescription contact lenses years ago . I only wore them when going out clubbing , for dinner etc . I loved them!
@@monicapatton1405 Great ! Yes you’re right they made big impact especially as not many people wore coloured contacts then .and people thought the eye colour was naturally light brown . I wear glasses now and am considering buying prescription contacts with the same light brown colour as my glasses are bruising my nose area ( even though they’re light ) . Anyway , that’s my excuse ! lol!
Years ago I had colored lenses. I have terrible eyesight and it was fun to have a way to change my eye color on a whim as well as seeing clearly. My eyes are brown and they had limited choices back then, but now there are all sorts of colors that will change brown eyes. I had green and hazel and the green color was striking. Maybe I'll try them again.
I used to wear lavender ones that looked gorgeous. Unfortunately I struggle with dry eyes so I can’t wear contacts all the time, but for those who can, this is a good idea.
Good evening, Wayne ❤ thank-you for this entertaining video. I have always been wearing coloured contacts for over twelve years so far and I can tell that when I don't feel like wearing make up or even getting on the move I'd wear my lenses and off I go. I have a medium brown coppery hair and I have a neutral skin with a golden undertone to it, and it is true the darker we are, the brighter the lenses should be. So I am always on the turquoise blue sort of a green blue, and it is a fab looks awesome in summer terrific in winter, and my eyes do really stand out aloud 😂😂. Thank you for this video again. Cheers ❤
Oh come on mister, your eyes are already the most beautiful colour!!
Not sure I fancy contacts for cosmetic purposes. I’m quite happy with my natural chocolate brown eyes. May be boring to some, but if it doesn’t need to be in my eye, it ain’t going in! ❤️
But for others who use contacts anyway then why not? Or even if you don’t wear contact, you use makeup so why not colored contacts?
@@lululee1653If you want to use them, fill yer boots! Personally, no thanks
@@lululee1653 I’m saying that I wouldn’t PERSONALLY! If other people want to, ie you, that’s their prerogative. Enough now 🙄🫶
Brown eyes r not boring I think they're pretty ❤
Contact lenses always look obvious and creepy. And you don't need them.
I prefer the blue ones on you ❤️😘
I’ve tried colored contacts and they’re so fun. I got the correct prescription strength, so could still drive and not walk into walls.☺️ The brand I use is Desio.
The blue looks so natural. I love them. My eyes are dark hazel. I love enhancing them with green contacts

@@natalyabaranova6827Coloured contact lenses have been around for over 35 years. I think they may be used much more often than you think.
I was thinking similar ... they looked too ... Bright / Cartoony ... and maybe that's just the camera lighting, but on the video it was kinda Freaky looking ... in person, they could look different though. Idk.
I did like the blue on him !
What is “uncanny valley?” I couldn’t understand your sentence.

Totally agree.
I have very dry eyes so contacts are a no go for me. Your eyes are beautiful regardless
They have eye drops,I do use them every day!
Wayne...i adore you❤ and your eyes are really nice normally
I love green eyes. A long time ago, I found a pair of greens that looked really natural and I loved them. Of course, not being caucasian and wearing green eye colour, it was clear it was not my natural colour.
I have seen non caucasians with green eyes… Africans and Indians and people with mixed European and native South American ancestry.
@@klimtkahlo true, but I am none of those!

You look far nicer without them. They make you look a bit alien.
When I opened the video, I thought: what's with his eyes... 🤔 They looked a bit watery to me and unnatural.
As ever, very interesting. Raising awareness of what make-up is all about, that eyshadow is meant to highlight our eyes. Thank you.

when you took off your contacts, I thought yous till had them on haha, your eyes are already piercing ! so beautiful
I saw these years ago but haven’t been able to locate them! Thank you!
The blue ones really suit you.
You dont need contact lenses.. your eyes are naturally mesmerising ...
Would love to do this! Hope they are affordable and reusable to some extent.
I can see now they do have monthly prescriptions lenses in color also 😍
Very nice colour ☘️
Beautiful work Mr W you gorgeous man x
New Zealand here xx
I never thought of doing that.
I had an upper bleph a yr ago and mu lids are still pinkish red. I have to have some type of eyeshadow on.

Only problem is when get older you need prescription lenses ,wish I could have any one.
They’re beautiful on you 😍
Sadly, another element of aging is dry eyes, which makes even lenses problematic. :(
I've always wanted to wear colored contacts but I can't put them in or get them out! I think it would take some practice.
Practice with your finger ,trying to get a closest you can to your eye’s holding lower and upper lid .
It’s helps,u can do it z!

As a prescription wearer and someone that has issue when anything comes close to the eyes this is a pass for me.
And here I was thinking we were going to play with liner & scara & maybe some repurposed make up that wasn't shadow...
I have always wanted to "honey up" my hazel eyes but have an astigmatism and fear it would end up being a disaster.

Sadly as I reached my 40’s my eyes dried out so that I can no longer wear contact lenses. They become so dry they even become distorted.
::cries in toric lenses and dry eye::
The problem is, these lenses only come in one size (8.6) Too small for me

Why Lesens always look so creepy. Yes, it does stand out but in a very strange way.
I have beautiful eyes but my bags are purple and I am mature.
Any suggestions?
Color corrector? I’m sure you are already doing this but hydration. I also use the Ordinary Caffeine Solution with EGCG to help with puffiness.
Oh, back in the day I had such fun with contacts! Have severe dry eye now and I can’t wear them anymore, but it was such a lark!
Oooh I have eyeball phobia 😂
No Thanks . I have allready problems With Blepharitis , demodex and dry eyes . I dont like the idea either Way . I prefer my own colour .
I think the eye stands out because they are teary therefore shiny. Kidding. Years ago I wore purple non prescriptions
