The Best Halloween Contact Lenses

With Halloween falling on a Wednesday we’re either planning to host a party the weekend before or after the main event. If it’s the latter, then you have plenty of time to get your Halloween contacts sent to your front door. Order with us before 3pm on weekdays, including Friday for next day delivery – perfect if you’ll be dressing up on All Hallows Eve too!

Now that you know your contacts will arrive in time for the party, have you been able to choose your Halloween lenses? If you haven’t, there’s no need to fret, below you will find our top Halloween lenses to take inspiration from.

Twilight Saga - Bella Vampire (First Changed) Contact Lenses

Thanks to the final instalment of the Twilight Saga hitting our screens next month, vampires have once again become one of the biggest characters to dress up as this Halloween. What makes Breaking Dawn Part Two such a highly anticipated film is being introduced to Bella the vampire with red eyes.

Pennywise The Clown Contact Lenses

Having a phobia of clowns is not rare, but when you think of the scariest clown there has ever been, Pennywise is at the top of the list. It isn’t surprising why people are scared of clowns after watching or reading Stephen King’s IT – he eats small children!

Beetlejuice Contact Lenses

What classic film, it really is Michael Keaton at his best. Wiry hair, white out face and blacked out eyes – you wouldn’t want to walk into Beetlejuice in a dark alley. What’s more it looks like the character will be appearing on the big screen again as rumours are circulating that Michael Keaton and Tim Burton are in talks about Beetlejuice 2.

Wicked Witch Of The West Contact Lenses

Witches are a popular costume choice for Halloween and everyone loves to re-create the Wicked Witch Of The West. However, with so many people opting for this outfit, it’s hard to think of ways to make it look unique. Not any more, by wearing these Wicked Witch Of The West contacts you’re sure to be the evilest witch in town!

X-Men - Mystique Contact Lenses

Everyone wants to have a unique power and what better mutant to dress up as this Halloween than the shape shifting Mystique?

The Exorcist Contact Lenses

Regan is one of the greatest victims of possession and a character that no-one will ever forget. If the Devil and his demons is what gets under your skin, then Regan is the perfect Halloween character to dress up as this year. Why not complete the haunting look with these Exorcist contact lenses?

Terminator Contact Lenses

If you want to dress up as a robot this Halloween, then there is no other character to come as than Arnie’s Terminator. Not only can you become a killing machine from the future you also have some pretty good one-liners too. “Hasta la vista, baby!”

Top 10 Zombie Contact Lenses

Zombies are one of the most popular characters to create for Halloween and with the TV series The Walking Dead back for a third season, inspiration isn’t too far away. However, with a horde of zombies soon to be walking the streets of the UK and across the globe, how can you guarantee you’ll be the scariest one?

At Eyesbright we have a gruesome range of zombie contact lenses for you to try out, and we’ve been scratching our heads to come up with our top 10. After much deliberation and countless costume changes, we believe we have narrowed down our collection to ensure that you will be the scariest zombie in town. Here are our top 10 zombie contact lenses:

Number 10 – Grim Reaper Contact Lenses

Let your eyes do all the talking as people walk past and see a dark grey pool of nothingness. These Grim Reaper contacts boast a black outline to give your eyes definition – a creepy impression will certainly be made.

 Number 9 – Blood Shot Contact Lenses

Ready to shed further blood? These contacts will certainly have people watching your every move. No one wants to be your meal when they see you wearing these blood shot contacts.

Number 8 – Zombie Grey Contact Lenses

No zombie costume can be complete without ensuring that every tiny detail is looked after. These grey zombie contact lenses will make sure you have all the right effects on people.

Number 7 – Hypnoteyes Bullet Contact Lenses

These brilliant contact lenses are perfect if you want to show onlookers that you’re not scared of bullets. They could also show your thirst for blood.

Number 6 – White Zombie Contact Lenses

Eliminating any colour from your eyes is the epitome of evil and is sure to have people running to the hills!

Number 5 – White-Out Contact Lenses

Unlike our 6th scariest zombie contacts, these white out lenses do not have a black line to give definition, it is simply all white. It will be incredibly easy to get some screams when you wear these white out lenses.

Number 4 – Rage Contact Lenses

Rage is the catalyst for the zombie virus and is what makes these creatures scary and powerful. Zombies just wouldn’t be zombies without their rage.

Number 3 – Skeleton - Black Out Eye Socket Contact Lenses

Black out lenses are often used to create demon characters, so you can imagine just how scary it is to see a creature appear with black out eyes!

Number 2 – Red Screen Contact Lenses

We have chosen these Red Screen contacts as our close favourite. Not only does the screen make you feel a bit uneasy because the pupil is covered, the red is a blood red that can signify you’ve just had your first meal of the day.

Number 1 – White Screen Contact Lenses

This video says it all:

Hellraiser Contact LensesThese Hellraiser contact lenses are fantastic for Pinhead enthusiasts, but they could also be used to create the Black Swan look. To make this character even darker, why not apply fake blood to your face, paying particular attention to your mouth? Putting twists on well known characters is a great way to ensure all the attention stays on you.

 

 

 

Hellboy Contact LensesAlternatively you could use these Hellboy contact lenses to become the red beast himself or use them to create the spine chilling Pennywise the Clown from Stephen King’s bestseller, IT. All you need to do is buy some scary teeth, a wild red wig and white face paint. These contacts can provide you with so many characters; Twilight vampires or werewolves can also be created wearing them. Boasting a roaring flame design, you could even go a step further and dress up as the ruler of Hell himself, the Devil.

 

Interview with a Vampire Contact LensesNot a fan of the Twilight vamps, but love Anne Rice’s Interview with a Vampire? Then these Louis De Point Du Lac contact lenses are just for you. You could even use these to become Regan in The Exorcist – just imagine how creepy you would look with a washed out white face, bloody scars across you face, dark black eye make-up and these powerful contacts. No-one would dare try to bring a bible near you.
