Question

How do I make the eye look pink?

Community Answer

Use special Halloween makeup. You could probably find some kind of special effects makeup at your local drugstore or online. Just be careful that you don't put anything in your eye that isn't designed to be put there.

Question

How long does this last?

With proper treatment, actual pink eye, which is a viral infection, goes away with no long-term effects after a few weeks. So fake pink eye, I would assume, goes away in that same amount of time or much faster, depending on how you fake it.

Is there eny other ways to fake it if your parents are hard to fool?

Community Answer

No, the steps offered here are already more than should be needed for something that's not actually that useful anyway.

Question

Do I rub the inside of my eye to make it pink?

Community Answer

Don't ever touch the inside of your eye if you can avoid it, and definitely don't do it without washing your hands first. If you do, you might end up getting pink eye for real, or some other bacterial infection.

You do not want to really get pink eye. It's awful. Stick to faking it.

Question

Will red lip gloss work?

Community Answer

No, red lip gloss wouldn't offer the correct shade of red to make it convincing.

Question

What other colors can I use other than red when faking pink eye?

Community Answer

You could use a light or dark pink. It will work, but don't overdo it or it will look like you smeared lipstick under your eyes.
