Aquavert vs. Brill

I've been wondering whether to swap for Brill cuz I kept staring at it every time I went to the counter (before it was dc'd), but I already have Aquavert. Are they different enough to own both? From swatches I see Aquavert's a bit greener, Brill is a bit bluer/cooler, but the difference looks minimal. One pro point is that Brill is a Satin, and I'm just getting more interested in those.

So any thoughts? Should I get Brill as well, or just be happy with my Aquavert? TIA!

I love brill - iot reminds me of the Tiffany's box - a powdery soft aqua. It's one of my faves. Aquavert, while lovely, is much more green.

If you can find it, definately get it. I have Aquavert also and while I like it, I prefer Brill so much more. IMO they are different enough to have both. Compared to eachother, Aquavert is much more of a yellowy green and Brill is more in the aqua blue family. HTH!

BTW - Brill is one of my fave colors - I have 4 backups. I was so sad when they dc'ed it.

I might be too late here, but I have both Brill and Aquavert and I like Aquavert a bit more. Brill is almost pastel blue-green on my skin(NC15). It's rather light. I like pairing it with Steamy to creat a smokey look though. Aquavert is more pigmented and can look like neon aqua green, as you already know. Brill is still a pretty color, but in my opinion, it's not so special...
