Hi rebeccahmonet,

It's hard to match colors on a computer monitor, but I think I found something that's close to what you're looking for: FreshLook ColorBlends Gemstone Green. You can see an example of that color below.

If that's not close enough to the color you seek, check out lens.com. Here's the page where you can see the colors for yourself: http://www.lens.com/contact-lenses/department95.asp

Here's hoping you find the perfect color.

It's always good when someone finds the help they need here. I'm glad you found a color you like. If you decide to order them, I hope you will post some pictures so we can see how good you look.

i Think Waicon has a gray that has green in it, i also saw on youtube Solotica has the new Icemint that is green grayish. You may want to look on youtube.

So have you gotten your colorful new contacts yet? Are you going to put pictures of yourself here? I think there a lot of people who want to see how good you look.

Try the Solotica IceMint!

Here's a pic I found on google. They're on brown eyes, but I'm assuming they will give you the look you want. (:

Wow, I opened this thread and was greeted by these beautiful green eyes.

Hi Rebecca. It sounded like you liked LeeRoberts' suggestion of Gemstone Green FreshLook ColorBlends. Are you going to buy some?

loveme · #10 (**permalink**) 06-05-2010, 07:58 PM

I think this is a picture of Natural color Icemint Green Solotica

You cant go wrong with Soloticas!

Oh yes you can. I read a post earlier today from someone who found the Solotica contact lenses to be dry and uncomfortable. They are beautiful contacts, as you can see in this thread, but they're not for everybody. They are kind of expensive, too.

It's been said before, but I'm going to repeat it.

It's hard to tell if these contacts will "give you the look you want" from so close. Does anyone have a full-face view with the Icemint lenses?

loveme · #15 (**permalink**) 06-29-2010, 03:53 PM

I found a full face on www.bonanzle.com/booths/colormyeyes and look at Solotica Icemint. There should be a full face on there.

I had to dig around quite a bit before I found a picture of a young lady wearing the Icemint contact lenses. She's also wearing a rather revealing dress, so it was tough to look at her eyes.

I'll save you folks the trouble of going to that other site and poking around like I had to. The caption says "New Solotica Natural Color CRISTAL Icemint contact lens." Is that the lens we've been talking about?

loveme · #17 (**permalink**) 06-29-2010, 04:48 PM

The picture is stunning

I think its a blue gray color. Very pretty

loveme · #18 (**permalink**) 06-29-2010, 04:51 PM

They say the lens looks better and more natural than other Solotica colors. I finally know Cristal and Icemint are the same. Finally figured it out.

hey!....."marietta vision" site offers the "american venus" natural enhancement lens.....i purchased the "sky blue" "jade green and "pearl grey" lenses!...they made my eyes appear bigger,brighter plus enhanced with beautiful color!....i believe the "pearl grey" may be of interest to you in your color search for a grey/green effect....i can say on my naturally light eyes,they appeared a bluish,greyish-green!....

loveme · #20 (**permalink**) 06-30-2010, 12:58 AM

I have American Venus, Marietta has good lenses, I think they sell Europa too. I still love Freshlooks and Soloticas but American Venus is pretty

Refresh my memory. What was Rebecca asking for?

Hi, hi, hi,

She's looking for BIG choice of circle lenses !
Some are "extravagant", but others, more subtle are nice !

At the very beginning of this thread Rebecca said "I have green eyes and I want to get contacts that are either grey and dont have color all the way to the iris or grey contacts that also have green in them."

Sounds like she wants to give her green eyes just a little bit of grey.

SkyIsJade · #26 (**permalink**) 09-30-2010, 10:25 AM
