Dark Greens

Post by Oxana124 » Thu Sep 19, 2013 9:20 am

I am looking at: Danny, Dark Arts, Olive You, and Posse
They are all dark greens, and I am trying to narrow it down a little. Could anyone compare these?
Also, do any of them have large sparkles in them? I prefer more pearly/metallic or fine shimmer finishes.
Thank you!

Of those, I can compare Danny and Dark Arts for you. Danny is more of a cooler toned green, maybe even a little of a grayish green. It has a satin-type finish, definitely no large glitter. Dark Arts is a warmer, golden green, and definitely a few shades darker than Danny. I like it blended out in the outer crease, but also use it as a liner sometimes-Danny wouldn't be dark enough for a liner on me. Dark Arts has a somewhat more metallic finish, but again no large glitter in it.

Olive You is completely matte and works in the crease really well, it's more of a military colour.

Posse is gorgeous, shimmery but not too shimmery. On me it's more of a mixture of green, brown and copper, it's not your at first sight green eyeshadow.
