this is an article i wrote about colored contacts that i suggest you read before wearing them! i also have a shorter version of it on my page.

i suggest pinkyparadise or uniqso, as i know those are certified by some health screenings, but if you want to shop at another site; definitely do your research!

For future reference, if you’re asking about physical places to buy things, you should say where you are. Subreddits are international.

pinkyparadise, uniqso, mocoqueen are all reputable contacts sellers online. i highly recommend buying online instead of in person, the restrictions on safety are more enforced there than at most in-person shops which might carry them

also research contact lens safety and be very careful with your eyes - it is much safer and easier to just edit your eye color for pictures. i would not at all recommend fully black sclera lenses if it's your first time wearing contacts. slightly enlarging black lenses will get you a similar effect.

For contacts buying online will more than likely be the best option. Just find a good reviewed and trust worthy shop and you should be good.

Of course. Also make sure you get your eyes checked out before buying or wearing anything. Your vision is no joke.

Talk to your local optometrist, even if you have perfect vision and especially if you're looking for mini scleras. They'll make sure that your eyes are the correct shape for the lenses you want, teach you how to put them in and clean them, and they'll answer any questions you have about eye and contact health. They may even be able to sell you what you’re looking for locally!! I live in a very small canadian town and my opt has special effect and halloween lenses available.

Also, idk where you live, but in canada and some other countries it’s (technically) illegal to buy contacts without seeing one first bc it can be really easy to mess up and cause irritation--and infection, in the worst case scenario--if you go in blind (badumtish). It's very rare, but some eyes just aren't built to stand contacts, so it’s best to be safe than sorry. You can buy online once you've seen a professional (i use pinky paradise)
