If you have dark brown eyes, you know the challenge: finding colored contact lenses that truly show up and make a difference without looking artificial. The goal is to achieve a noticeable, yet beautiful transformation. Gleglow offers a specially designed range of highly pigmented and opaque lenses that are perfect for covering dark irises, allowing you to switch to stunning blues, greens, or greys.
Here is your guide to choosing the best Gleglow lenses for a dark eye base:
1. Go for High Opacity and Pigmentation
The secret to transforming dark brown eyes lies in the lens’s opacity. You need a lens with a dense, opaque pigment that completely masks your natural color.
The Problem: Enhancement tints (which are translucent) will barely show up on dark eyes.
The Solution: Stick to Gleglow’s opaque collections. These lenses use advanced printing technology to ensure the new color, whether it’s a soft hazel or an intense blue, dominates your natural pigment.
2. The Most Impactful Colors for Dark Eyes
While you can technically wear any color, certain shades provide the most dramatic and beautiful transformation on a dark base:
Striking Blues: Blue lenses are an eternally popular choice. For dark eyes, look for rich, vibrant blues. Gleglow’s Oryan Blue lenses are designed with strong pigmentation to deliver a beautiful, noticeable blue hue. Similarly, if you want an icy, cool effect, the Iced Blue lenses provide that piercing change.
Captivating Greens: Green lenses often look surprisingly natural on dark eyes because the color transition is smooth. Dioren Green lenses are a top seller for their natural pattern and high coverage. For a more glowing, intense green, the Avenor Glow Green lenses provide a strong pop of color that truly stands out.
Chic Greys: Grey is the perfect neutral for a stunning change. High-quality opaque greys, such as Moonmist Grey lenses, can create a sophisticated, doll-like effect that completely brightens your face. The slightly softer Lunis Grey lenses can still deliver excellent coverage while offering a natural pattern.
3. Focus on Lens Diameter and Design
For the most transformative effect on dark eyes, consider the overall design:
Limbal Ring: Lenses with a defined dark ring (limbal ring) around the edge make your eyes appear bigger, brighter, and more youthful—a popular style often called the “doll-eye” look.
Multi-Tone Blending: Even opaque lenses should have a subtle multi-tone design (two or three colors blended) to prevent the color from looking flat or printed. Gleglow’s designs are engineered for a layered look, ensuring realism despite the high opacity.
4. Prescription and Safety
Remember that a dramatic new color should never come at the expense of safety. Whether you require prescription lenses or are simply looking for a non-prescription color change, always ensure you follow these steps:
Purchase your lenses from a trusted supplier like Gleglow.
Follow the proper cleaning routine, especially for Yearly lenses.
Use Gleglow’s Lens Wearing Aids for safe application.
Embrace the power of color! With the right opaque lens from Gleglow, your dark brown eyes can be instantly transformed into any captivating shade you desire.
