Probably more red - because lime juice and lemon in the eye are not a good idea!

This – pardon the expression – bullshit picture is currently circulating on Facebook. We received inquiries from users as to whether something like this could really work.

It's about this picture:

It's crazy how good that looks

It works!
Did you know?
If you put some lime juice in your eyes they will turn green

Off to the fact check!

If you put lime juice in your eye, you will quickly realize that this liquid doesn't belong there.

There's a fire, people are screaming = not a good idea!

The fact that this can change the color of your eyes has also not been proven or even scientifically tested.

The section of the eye doesn't even show a natural eye color, because the person is obviously wearing contact lenses or there has been a lot of trickery here with Photoshop.

If you search for “fun lenses green” on Google you will get some similar looking results, such as these contact lenses on eBay .

Last but not least, lime or lemon juice is acid . This has an irritating effect and therefore does not make the eyes green, but rather red...

This bullshit picture can also be found on fun sites such as debeste .

Result:

You shouldn't take this “beauty hack” too seriously and you certainly shouldn't try it.

Lime juice doesn't make eyes green - there's no scientific evidence to support this.

Otherwise, we can only offer this tip to those who have tried it:

Rinse the eye with clear, lukewarm water so that it does not immediately run back into the other eye!
