Tawny Cypress Eyes In Yellowjackets Has Fans Confused

Tawny Cypress eyes give a gleam of red at certain angles in Yellojackets. In real life, the actress has beautiful blue-green color eyes. 

She uses brown contacts to portray her character, Taissa Turner, on the Showtime series. If you look closely, her eyes appear red in certain parts. This is due to the colored contacts she's wearing.

Cypress probably has to wear those contacts to match her teen character, played by Jasmin Savoy Brown, who has brown eyes.

Jasmin is known for playing leading roles in Sound of Violence, Scream (2022), and Scream VI (2023). She is also notable for appearing in HBO's The Leftover and ABC's For the People.

Many viewers perhaps noticed Taissa's red eye when she was delivering a speech in Season 1 Episode 5, which aired on December 12, 2021.

In the episode, Taissa gives a rousing speech about fighting back after she decides to fight back against Phil early in the morning. She also blames the red paint on someone else other than her son, Sammy.

While giving her speech, her eye color changes to red for a millisecond. Fans were convinced it wasn't from the camera flashes as the scene gave a vibe she might have a split personality.

The scene also sparked a Reddit discussion, with some individuals referring to her eyes as wolf eyes. "Her eyes definitely flashed orange with big pupils like wolves," said on Reddit user.

Another confirmed, "it might be because of the colored contacts she’s wearing."

Cypress is 46 years old but still looks young and glowing as ever. Her beautiful and expressive blue-green eyes add more beauty to her looks.

Remember the famous quote "It is in their eyes that their magic resides" by Arthur Symons? It perfectly describes and compliments the actress' happy and mesmerizing eyes.

Her eyes in the show are absolutely frightening in the best way. However, her natural eye color beats her colored contacts from the show with fans praising her looks on various platforms.

A Twitter user said she "has the most gorgeous eyes. I'm floored by her every time." Another added, "Man Tawny Cypress has some beautiful eyes."

The actress uses Thrive Causemetics Liquid Lash Extensions Mascara for her eyelashes. This gives a more glorious look to her eyes. It makes her eyes look bigger and creates the illusion of open eyes.

Talking to the Strategist, she shared how a friend turned her on to Thrive mascara. She saw her lashes and asked if she has used falsies as her eyes looked amazing.

Her friend then told her about Thrive mascara. The mascara makes little poly tubes around the eyelashes and doesn't come off until the user takes it off. "Products that don't move are a plus in my book," she added.

Well, it appears Cypress's eyes are not the only eyes that caught the attention.

Consider Mariel Molino's blue and brown eye color from heterochromia and Tenoch Huerta's two different eye colors in BlackPanther.

Cypress has starred as adult Taissa on Showtime's Yellowjackets since 2021. Her character is married to Simone and has a son named Sammy.

25 years ago, Taissa was the star athlete of the WHS Yellowjackets, a passionate soccer team that was making it for the nationals until their lives turned following a devastating plane crash.

During high school, she was determined to win the nationals by any means. She even injured fellow teammate Allie during practice, whom she considered not fit enough for the tournament.

At the time she was dating Vanessa. After the crash, she joined Howard for pre-law with a double major in philosophy and history. During this time, she dated many beautiful women.

As an adult, Turner is married to Simone (Rukiya Bernard) and is running for state senator of New Jersey. Soon, she starts having issues with her unstable son Sammy.
