General Comments on this product: I love greens, so naturally I would love this product as well. It is your, "in your face, green giant lookalike martian green" as I call it! This color is SO bright and SO beautiful, and would look great on dark and light eyes, too. It isn't hard to apply at all, its texture is similar to the regular pigments, (nothing fancy about that even tho it's PRO). If you're near a PRO store, and you fancy greens, I would definitely recommend you pick up this pigment!

I love green and was so excited to get this color- and then I tried to use it. I was disappointed. It is okay, but the fine milling and whatever they are doing for the formulation is nowhere near as nice as the earlier pigment formulas. The color is okay, but on the weak side (pigmentation) and it does not stay on as well (I always use a good base).

Having said that, it is still useful, just not as nice as I expected. I prefer the older formulations- they gave better coverage, more color, more shimmer, and stayed on a bit better.

I will use it, but not as often as the other colors I have. If only they would make this color like the older formulas! For the price, I expected a little more of this pigment.

Very pretty green color! its like lime but darker. I cant even describe it! It is darker then chartruse pigment, but along the same color family. Maybe a darker, more green version of meadowland is the closest i can get. Its not as versatile as other colors so that is why it gets a 4. i cannot match it with as many things as i would like.

OK, I could almost cite word for word Colourqueens assessment (above) of this pigment and repeat it here, because thats what I think of it too.
Its is a very pretty green, and in the pot it looks nice and bright, but it tends to fade quickly and applies more sheerly than initially thought. I guess that makes it more useable since it isnt nearly as vivid on as in the jar BUT if you were after a very vivid green then this isnt it. A truly apple green its still worth having because it is quite pretty and fairly easy to use. Again I too prefer the older formulation pigments because they stick better so if you are going to use and expect it to stay then this put it over an excellent base, and if you want a brighter colour then definitely use a coloured base.
