A Beginners Guide To Cosplay With Crazy Lenses: Part 2

Cosplay Contact Lens Duration

How often you cosplay will influence your decision on the duration of your lenses. Choose a single-use daily pair of cosplay lenses if you are wearing your costume for a one-off occasion or choose reusable cosplay lenses if you regularly dress as a certain character. 

The benefit of reusable contact lenses is that they are more cost effective per wear but you do need to make sure they are properly maintained. Rinse your lenses with contact lens solution after every wear and store them in fresh contact lens solution in an air-tight case. 30 day lenses are slightly thicker so they can last for multiple uses which some people find easier to handle.

The benefit of single-use daily lenses is that they don’t need cleaning after use; you can simply throw them away in your normal household waste. Don’t flush them down the toilet or the sink. Daily lenses are ultra lightweight and thin, to keep your eyes feeling fresh.

For any type of soft cosplay contacts from Crazy Lenses, you will need to soak them for at least 2 hours before use in fresh contact lens solution as the storage solution is a higher concentration than normal contact lens solution. Pick up a case and solution bottle from Crazy Lenses. For any duration of our cosplay lenses, you can wear them for up to 8 hours per day. It is important to pay attention to the duration of your contact lenses to keep your eyes fresh and safe. All our lenses are made with breathable materials to help your eyes stay fresh all day. 

Many of our lenses are available in a range of durations so you can choose the length that best suits you.

Cosplay Colour Contact Lenses

It can feel like you are getting bogged down with information before you have even started wearing your cosplay contact lenses but once you are clued up on the safety information, you can enjoy choosing your dream pair of cosplay lenses. 

There are literally hundreds of options that span from natural to costume designs as well as a variety of shades and eye types. Some cosplay characters have very specific eye designs while others can be achieved with a universal style, making them more versatile.

Blue Cosplay Lenses generally fall into two categories - natural and costume. Costume blue contact lenses feature very bright, usually block blue pigmentation to completely cover your natural iris. They are available in a range of shades starting with icy aqua all the way to deep royal blue. The costume blue lenses sometimes have other features such as a contrasting limbal ring or details to the iris. The most popular blue cosplay lenses include Ice Walker Blue, Manson Blue, and Wizard Blue. 

If your cosplay character has natural blue eyes, then check out the natural blue lenses in our collection too. When you are buying natural lenses, make sure to consider how the design may blend with your eye colour. For example, if you have a dark eye colour such as brown choose highly pigmented blue lenses.

From snake eyes to witches eyes, there are a range of characters to cosplay with green eyes. Our collection of Green Cosplay Lenses includes vertical pupil lenses for your best reptile and cat transformations as well as classic character lenses such as the Hulk and Mad Hatter. Add gorgeous emerald tones to your eyes whether you are looking for a natural design or a costume style. Green is one of the rarest natural eye colours so if you want to match your character, you may need help from a pair of green contact lenses.

Pink is such an adorable eye colour and is popular in anime. Characters such as Nezuko Kamado are instantly recognisable due to their pink eyes. While Pink Cosplay Lenses are usually costume lenses, we do stock a range of natural pink lenses. These lenses use the iris design of a real eye but add gorgeous shades of pink to create an unusual fantasy eye. If you prefer a vibrant costume pink lens, we have plenty of funky designs to choose from as well as classic versatile styles such as Pink UV and Pink Cosplay.

Similarly, Purple Cosplay Lenses are available in a natural iris design. While it is often debated whether people can have naturally purple eyes, most are achieved with a pair of purple contact lenses. With so many shades of purple to choose from you can get your dream eye colour whether you want a subtle purple hue or a bright violet starburst. Our range of purple costume lenses will help you achieve an even brighter eye colour that will help your cosplay stand out.

Black Cosplay Lenses are a popular choice for horror movie characters but they also look cute for anime eyes or animated characters. Create big black eyes by blending your eye colour with your pupil. While our classic black contact lenses are the most popular style, we stock a range of other designs. Black is the perfect background for adding hints of bright colour such as a spark of yellow, red, or white. 

If your character has blanked out eyes then you may need a pair of White Blind Lenses. If you would prefer to still be able to see then a classic pair of White Cosplay Lenses will help you complete your character. White lenses are also great for creating Tim Burton-style eyes for characters such as Jack Skellington, Sally Stitches, and The Corpse Bride.

Red eyes instantly make you think of a range of characters from Naruto to Star Wars Sith Lords. With a pair of Red Cosplay Lenses you can complete your supervillain cosplay or create eerie eyes for a range of iconic characters. Red lenses are available in a range of sizes, including mini sclera. Our range of red lenses includes a variety of limbal ring styles, a blend of red and yellow for characters such as Pennywise the clown and Darth Maul, and UV or vertical pupil styles.

Transform into a werewolf character with Orange Cosplay Lenses. The bright orange colour gives an animalistic look to your eyes. You can also achieve the Cullen’s golden eye colour from Twilight using a range of our orange cosplay lenses such as New Moon Lenses and UV Glow Bella Lenses.

So many cool cosplay characters have yellow eyes; actors have even worn yellow contacts in movies. For example, Jim Carrey in The Grinch wore contact lenses to achieve his yellow eyes. Use your Yellow Cosplay Lenses for iconic characters such as The Grinch, The Witcher and any of the Na’vi from Avatar. Our Yellow Avatar Lenses are a popular choice for all these characters and many more but we also stock versatile designs such as Yellow Cosplay, Yellow UV, and Yellow Cat.

Grey is another colour that is unusual to find in a natural eye colour so you may need help from a pair of Grey Cosplay Lenses to create a grey eye colour. The shades range from very light grey eyes to dark grey, all created using natural iris designs. If you are looking for a costume grey design, you will find a range of Silver Cosplay Lenses to create a fantasy eye or grey costume lenses such as Zombie Undead Grey and Blind Grey.

Brown is an eye colour that has so many variations including chocolate brown, hazel and honey. With so many people and characters having brown eyes, you may want to change the shade of your eyes with Brown Cosplay Lenses. Whether you want to lighten your dark brown eyes to a shade of honey or hazel or need to cover your naturally blue eyes, there are plenty of designs to choose from. Most brown lenses fall into the natural category but we do have a selection of brown cosplay lenses that have a more vibrant and block pigmentation for an animated look.
