Wearing Your Contacts

While neon-colored UV contacts are great for raves and parties, these can also work for costume designs such as for Halloween or a black light party.

Dragon

Making your own dragon costume can be a chore. However, with UV contacts available in yellow, red, and even green dragon eye, you can add a spooky look to complete your costume.

Cat

Whether you are a black cat, sexy cat, leopard, or even lion, add a pair of glow in the dark yellow, green or white cat eyes. These help you stand out in the crowd by adding a more realistic look.

Demon

Red eyes add an evil effect without a costume, but adding glowing red eyes to a ghoul costume can take you from nice to wow. Roaming through the halls of a haunted house, others won't be able to tell who's getting paid.

Vampire

Whether you are going for a full Dracula with neon red glow-in-the-dark contacts or you want to finish off your Edward Cullen costume with a pair of honey UV contacts, the eyes will make or break vampire makeup.

Witch

A witch costume can take on multiple forms. Maybe you want to go Wicked Witch of the West by adding some glow in the dark green contacts. However, if you want to get truly evil, try some red demon eyes or even dragon eyes. Maybe you just want to add your own form of evil by adding some ali white contacts to your white witch costume.

Gypsy

Become a true mystic by adding a pair of glow-in-the-dark green or blue contacts to your gypsy outfit. This added touch creates an otherworldly appearance.

Fairy

Speaking of otherworldly creatures, the fairy folk are bright, bold creatures. Depending on your costume, you can add blue, green, pink, or yellow glow in the dark lens to your eyes to provide a truly mythical look.

Mad Hatter

No one can do the Mad Hatter like Johnny Depp, but you can try your hand at it. Adding a pair of bright green glow in the dark lens pulls your bright costume together.

Skeleton

Imagine how creepy your skeleton look will be if you add glow-in-the-dark paint and blue or white glow contacts.

Wolf

Yellow wolf glow-in-the-darks contacts can provide the spooktacular feel you seek, and the realism might just create a great scare for your party.

Special Precautions

Caring for glow-in-the-dark contacts is the same as regular contacts.

  • Wash your hands before touching eyes or lenses.
  • Rinse your lenses with an all-purpose contact solution and store them in a contact case.
  • Be sure to rinse them before you put them in your eyes and after you take them out.
  • Do not reuse saline solution.
  • Never use saliva to rinse your contacts.
  • Do not keep lenses longer than recommended.
  • Do not wear them overnight.
  • Contacts, even fun ones, need to be replaced every few months.
  • If you experience redness, pain, or irritation, contact an eye care professional immediately.

The Finishing Touch

Adding glow in the dark contacts to your rave ensemble or Halloween costume is the perfect way to finish your outfit. Wow those around you with your glowing eyes.
