I am changing the focus of my blog. That's right.. To contact lenses! I will be starting with my review of the FreshLook Colors range! FreshLook is probably if not the most readily available contact lens on the market. I have been wearing these for yeearrss. This si the first brand I've ever worn and I have a soft spot for them. They're not my everyday lenses but they are a brand I always keep in my collection.
FreshLook Colors come in 6 shades as a whole. They are Misty Grey, Hazel, Green, Violet, Blue and Sapphire Blue. They're disposable versions of the Durasoft 3 Colors line. In the US they are sold in 4 color options Hazel, Green, Violet, and Blue. I have had a chance to try all 6 shades! I have to take new pics of Violet and Blue so I will share Misty Grey, Hazel, Green, and Sapphire Blue.

My favorite shades from this line are Misty Grey, Blue (not pictured) and Sapphire Blue. I like Hazel when I want to subtly add something to my natural eye color (which is rare) and Violet when I want an eye color that's fun! Green is a color I keep in my collection just because I usually buy them when they go on sale but not a color I personally care for. Misty Grey and Sapphire Blue I was fortuante enough to receive as gifts as they're not available in the US. It's a shame as well becasue Misty Grey is probably the most natural monotone grey I've ever worn.

hi there!
i was just curious if you knew any site that sold a pair of freshlook colors in hazel for a reasonable price(:
i've been looking around for quite some time now && i'd either find only freshlook colorblends or freshlook one-day...but im looking for the freshlook colors! haha. please help mee! thanks for all your reviews!
Are you based in the US? You can order them from www.1-Save-On-Lens.com . They sell them for around $20.00 USD roughly per pair before shipping. They are cheaper if you order them by the box, it's about $35.00 USD but it's also a 3 month supply if worn daily. Let me know if there is any other info you need!
I love the green and hazel. It suits my dark brown eyes more. Thank you for your posts! I have been looking EVERYWHERE for pictures of coloured contacts on people! Thanks again.
Hey gregg,I live in the US and am dying to get me a pair of Freshlook colors in misty grey but they are discontinued,where do you buy them?
Anonymous 1>No Problem!
Anonymous 2>FreshLook Colors Misty Grey was never discontinued. That particular shade along with COlors Sapphire Blue were never available for sale in the U.S. You're going to have to order them from overseas. Here are some sites I can think of.
www.VisionDirect.co.uk
www.ContactLenses.co.uk
www.MrLens.ch
Hopefully these help out. You can also try www.AALens.com. In the past they have sold them for a very reasonable price per pair with cheap shipping. I know they did stop carrying alot of their lenses though so it may not be an option.
Hi Greg,
Love all the pictures of the lenses. Thanks for posting them! :) They are super helpful. Just picked up a box of violets, hope they look good lol. Might get green and blue if I'm happy with the fit. The trials seemed to show up on my super dark eyes. :)

Hi! Because these contacts arent prescribed to you isnt it going to affect you vision? I would like to know before i purchase them. Also, can these contacts be worn everyday?
Anonymous: To answer your first question these lenses actually are one of many brands that have been prescribed for me. Since I require corrective powers in my lenses they actually improve my vision. To answer your second question they are daily disposable lenses so they can be worn everyday. However they are not meant for extended wear so they do need to be removed and cleaned everyday. If you've never worn lenses before like all other lenses colored or not they can be slightly uncomfortable at first. Just be sure if you opt to try these or any other lenses to wear and care for them properly.
