Alright I'm cosplaying as Lucy. I got this wig http://cgi.ebay.com/26-Long-Razor-Cut-Pink-Cosplay-Wig-0547_W0QQitemZ170406946670QQcategoryZ60188QQcmdZViewItemQQ_trksidZp5197.m7QQ_trkparmsZalgo%3DLVI%26itu%3DUCI%26otn%3D4%26po%3DLVI%26ps%3D63%26clkid%3D5495529501633334967 so far. I need to get eye contacts now. I am wondering what color I should get? Pink or red? And also, I have blue eyes... light blue eyes, would this change the color of the lens? I see people with brown eyes in the examples so it's very hard for me to imagine them on me... Also, if you know of any good looking red contacts that would fit with this cosplay it would be amazing... thanks!
 
It depends. You can get colored contacts for light eyes and colored contacts for dark eyes. You would be fine with either ones, but I'm going to say that you should get red dark eye ones anyway. I always recommend browsing the 1-800 Contacts website and finding brands and colors. There are sites that make things like especially for cosplay, but they are significantly more expensive than others. Red is definitely a costume color though. Purple and gold are generally not.

According to 1-800 Contacts you have 3 tints:
* Visibility tint. These colored contact lenses are lightly tinted so you can find your lens in the contact lens case, or if you drop it. Visibility tints don't affect the color of your eyes.
* Enhancement tint. These colored contact lenses have a translucent tint that's meant to enhance your natural eye color. Enhancement tints are slightly darker than a visibility tint and change the color of lighter eyes.
* Color tint. Darker, opaque tint contact lenses entirely change the color of your eyes. Color tint contacts come in a wide array of colors, including amethyst, violet and green. The center of this colored contact lens is clear so you can see without the colored lens affecting your vision.

You want a color tint.

And despite the horrible photo shop jobs on the pictures, you might want to check coastal contacts out.
