What is the difference between Freshlook Colorblends Green vs Gemstone Green?

While Freshlook Colorblends and Air Optix Colors are both designed to enhance your natural eye colour, Freshlook Colorblends Green offers a more subtle update than Gemstone Green Air Optix lenses. Gemstone Green on the other hand offers a more vibrant eye colour change.

Both these contact lenses have their own special features which differ from each other. Freshlook Colorblends have a 3-in-1 colour blend technology which enhance the natural eye by blending three different colour1s to mimic the varying tones of your iris. The outer ring defines the eye and is the primary colour to transform the eye colour and the inner ring adds depth and brightens the eye.

Air Optix Colors have the same 3-in-1 colour blend technology but also feature their very own SmartShield Technology which shields eyes from irritating deposits by creating an ultra-thin protective layer.

Which is better Freshlook Colorblends Green or Air Optix Colors Gemstone Green?

Freshlook Colorblends Green are considered to be better for those after a more subtle colour update whereas Air Optix Gemstone Green are perfect for those who desire a more vibrant hue.

Air Optix Colors allow up to six times the amount of oxygen to reach the eye thanks to their silicone hydrogel material; however, Freshlook Colorblends have a higher water content, making them equally as comfortable.

  Lovely natural colours (although there is a choice of brighter in your face ones if you want). These are by far the most comfortable lenses I have tried and I have worn lenses for decades.
