Cosplay help needed tonight!

Postby desperado » Fri Dec 30, 2005 1:22 pm

Alright this is so I can order them in time if you think I should. I just got done talking to a place that wants to charge me 180 dollars to get 1 PAIR of cat eye contacts in and are not sure if they would get in, in time. Everywhere else is super expensive and costs lots of money or takes to long.

Originally I was going to go with cosplaylabs site but then I realized the blurb that said 1 day shipping only avaliable for non rx contacts.....So I have been in trouble.

I was refered to coastal contacts by a member I trust of cosplay.com. I found these

I need oppinions if they will be close enough to ilpalazzo to count. Here is a close up of a angry ilpalazzo.

Hm...Well I'm one who can understand that you want to cosplay as close to that character as possible. To be honest with you I think the iris is a bit too thick for Ilpalazzo's.

Then again, they may look perfect once you actually get them. That's just the way some things are.

why dont you just..... not get contacts? I mean nobody's going to look straight into your eyes...

Remember, the cheaper the contacts, the more harmful they can be for your eyes

It is from a trusted brand and distributor. The thing i was stating earlier is there is rampant price raising when i see these prices 98, 100, 120, 180 at four different places for the same brand and type.

I decided not to go with that type to begin with (the straight yellow cat eye) because it blends in to much with the white of your eye and doesnt look as good as one with coloring around the eye. These would be safe, the question I want to know is would they work.

The reason I am throwing a fit about contacts is one of the best inyuasha cosplayers I have ever seen wore cat eye like contacts and you just did a double take every time you saw her. Plus I am entering in several cosplay events and am hoping to take home a prize (would be nice for my second cosplay)
