It's not so much the brand as it is how they're printed. For darker eyes, you need some sort of underprint (usually grey) to mask the original eye colour- so contacts designed only to heighten or brighten your own colour wont work. Ones that are dense and rich in their colour should, though.
I personally use CIBA's 'durasoft' contacts- they have a dense gray underprint, and the colour is impossible to tell as anything but my own natural eyes.
