Are you searching for something special to make your Halloween costume unique? Even the best costume won’t be complete without the eyes, and a pare of halloween contacts can add this final touch. But where would you get quality frightening contact lenses that don’t cost a fortune? Here are some ideas.
Choice of cheap costume contacts for Halloween
There are hundreds different designs of costume Halloween contact lenses some are inexpensive while others quite expensive. The reason is straightforward - more elaborated designs are custom made and need more work.
There are many great inexpensive Halloween lens designs like :
- Banshee
- moggy eye, which you can get in white, red, green and yellow
- Hot red Vampire contact lens
- White out and black out lenses
- Black wolf
- Green reptile
- Manson
Glow in the dark lenses are generally a favorites at Halloween time. Surprisingly, their price is affordable.
2 most well liked types of Halloween contacts are Wild Eyes and crazy Lenses. Both are produced by respectable contact lens makers. And offer high quality at reasonable cost.
On the other hand, designs like crow, Dagon, goblin, underworld or necromancer would cost you more. Basically all custom made costume contacts are way more pricey and also have to be ordered in advance.
And on the most expensive end there are sclera costume lenses - they cover not just your iris, but the entire eye. The effect is great, so, sadly, is the cost.
Annual costume contacts vs. Monthly ones a giant price difference
People who wear corrective contacts know that not all contact lenses last the same amount of time. Some are only good for one day - they are called daily disposable contacts, some last two weeks to a month and others up to a year. The longer the lens is intended to last, the dearer it is.
Costume contact lenses don’t come as daily disposables, just because daily lenses are too thin and can’t hold that much color. for Halloween lenses you typically have a choice between the once a year lens and a monthly disposable. For example both funny Lenses and Wild Eyes are available as monthly lenses and they’re much cheaper than the ones that last you for a year. Monthly lenses aren’t at all inferior in quality, they just aren’t made to last - but who would want the same costume contacts next Halloween anyway?
Where to buy cheap Halloween contacts?
A way to purchase your costume lenses is to order them through your optometrist. This way you can be bound to get the prime quality, safe for your eyes contacts. Sadly, they’re going to be quite pricey as well . So the one thing you really need from your doctor is a prescription.
Then you will find theatrical lenses about anywhere from local K Mart to a gas station. But I wouldn’t trust the quality of the lenses sold there, and cheap contacts made with low quality dyes can create serious issues for your eyes. Your best options would be to purchase your contact lenses on the internet.
But purchasing thru the Internet you need to be careful as well . Many web sites offer cheap contacts for halloween, but not every one of them are decent. Go with a corporation that sells all kind of contact lenses, not just Halloween stuff. Also look fore reviews of a specific site, before you decide to buy from it.
