Scary huge contacts

I just read this article in the NYtimes on contacts that enlarge the eyes and colored contacts being not only the rage in Asia but it's now coming to the States. How true.

Before on bottom. YIKES. But remarkable!

The girl who washed my hair these past two weeks had these huge anime eyes that made me stare at her more than 10x the first time I saw her. I kept doing this eye flick, back and forth from my eyes to her eyes. The articles talks about how risky it is to wear contacts not prescribed by a doctor. I know that the article is right. In Asia, the emphasis is all about physical looks and mainly the eyes. I have one cousin who has had the surgery done and as a result looks rather strange to me. The other girl cousin has green contacts. I don't know what it is, but I just don't like them. Love yourself, love your brown eyes?

I've tried the blue contacts on myself. I thought I looked good, at 13. Not ten years later ya'll. There are two types, one is the kind that you're probably most familiar with, they're simply colored, but the other type, apparently were inspired by Gaga's Bad Romance video - which I actually don't think is true. They're newer but not that new...they creepily enlarge the radius of your eyes.


They look huge and fleshy and gross! You can purchase them here: www.tokioshine.com.

Seeing this girl makes me think I'm in the middle of a disco underground rave, maybe some sort of strange anime live action movie...yuck!
