Putting On Color Contacts: A Step by Step Guide

Color contacts can be a fun and easy way to change up your look. Whether you're looking to add a splash of color or want to go for a completely new look, following these steps will make the process easy and hassle-free. In this post, we'll walk you through each step in putting on color contacts so that you can achieve the perfect result.

Wash Your Hands

The first step is to make sure your hands are clean. This will help avoid any irritation. This will also help reduce the chances of any bacteria or dirt getting on the contact lenses and causing an infection. When washing your hands, make sure to use soap and lukewarm water.

Prepare The Lens

Next, remove the lens from its packaging and check that it is in good condition. If there are any tears or damage to the lens, do not use it. Once you have checked that the lens is in good condition, soak it in solution for at least four hours. Make sure to use a solution that is specifically designed for contact lenses.

Use Your Fingertip To Put The Contact In

After the lens is soaked, gently place it on the fingertip of your indexed finger. Make sure that the contact is not inside out before placing it on your eye. To do this, hold the contact up to the light and check that it is shaped like a bowl. If it is inside out, it will look like a taco shell. Them, using your other hand, hold your upper and lower eyelids open.

Hold Your Upper And Lower Eyelids

Once you have checked that the lens is not inside out, place it on your eye. Hold your upper eyelid open with your thumb and lower eyelid open with your index finger of your other hand and expand the contact lens until it covers the entire surface of your eye. Look in the mirror and make sure that the contact is in the center of your eye.

Look In The Right Direction When Putting The Lens

When placing the contact lens on your eye, it is important to look in the right direction. This will help ensure that the contact is placed correctly on your eye. Just hold the contact up to your eye and look through it. You should be able to see a clear image. If you cannot see a clear image, the contact is not in the correct position.

Close Your Eyes Slowly Or Roll It Around

The final step is to close your eyes slowly or roll the contact around. This can settle the lens on your eye. You can also gently press your eyelid with your finger to make sure that the contact is in place. Once you have done this, release your eyelids and blink a few times. Make sure that the contact lens does not move when you blink. If it does, gently push it back into place.
Now that you know the steps in putting on color contacts, you can easily achieve the perfect look. Just remember to follow these steps and carefully handle the lenses to avoid any irritation. With a little practice, you'll be a pro in no time. By following these steps, you can have a fun and easy experience putting on color contacts.
