Recent Survey Takes 'FreshLook' at Hottest Celeb Eye Colours and Perceived Personality Traits
Think Angelina Jolie looks sexy? Charlotte Church is creative? Keira Knightley seems kind? It may be due to their eye colour, according to a recent survey conducted by NEW FreshLook(R) ONE-DAY disposable colour contact lenses.
The survey which polled 3,000 young men and women ages 18-24 from across the United Kingdom, found that people often associate different eye colours with specific personality traits. The survey also determined that it may be possible for an individual to influence people's perception of them simply by changing the colour of their eyes with coloured contact lenses.
Blue eyes like those belonging to Angelina Jolie, her partner Brad Pitt and his ex-wife Jennifer Aniston were found to be the most wanted eye colour, followed by green.
The personality trait that respondents of the study most associated with blue eyes was flirtatiousness with 22 per cent of respondents saying this, followed closely by sexiness (17 per cent). Brown/hazel-eyed people were thought to be affectionate and kind (each at 14 per cent) and by far the most trustworthy compared to people with other eye colours (16 per cent). Green-eyed people were considered to be the most creative (15 per cent) of All eye colours and the most mysterious and intriguing (17 per cent) while grey-eyes were generally thought to be shy (12 per cent) but also the most intelligent (15 per cent).
One quarter of those surveyed expressed an interest in using a daily disposable contact lens such as FreshLook ONE-DAY to change their eye colour, with the most popular occasion being for a night out clubbing (21 per cent), going to the bar (12 per cent) or for a hot date (9 per cent).
Daska Barnett, optometrist to some of the UK's most coveted celebrity eyes and founder of Specs of Kensington explains: "Colour contact lenses have finally come of age thanks to the daily disposable format - the ultimate in convenience. People really enjoy experimenting with their image and changing their eye colour is one simple way they can really make and impact."
She continues: "Maintaining good ocular health when wearing contact lenses is vital and anyone who is interested in trying out a new eye colour should ensure they are fitted by a qualified practitioner."
