5 Great Olive Green Eyeshadows

5 Great Olive Green Eyeshadows
I’m a huge fan of earthy colors for eyeshadow, but I certainly have a soft spot for olive greens!
What’s your favorite olive green eyeshadow?
I absolutely love theBalm All About Alex...guess you could call it an olive with other shades mixed in...seems to take on different tones based on what shades I wear it with. It is the most versatile green I own. One of my favorite colors from them, and I own every palette they have made.
I know you've had a few of these "5 great color" posts and I've wondered if you had done some for antiqued gold? I know olive green is similar but I wanted to see something slightly more golden. I tried searching but I couldn't find it. I know you are such a huge fan of antique goldish colers so that why i ask. Thanks!
I love Olive shades! My favorite is Make Up For Ever #84, its a gorgeous blackened olive with hint of gold!
...any suggestions for a good matte olive green? that's something I don't have in my collection yet :)
I've been wanting to try lancome designer because I bought mac sumptuous olive and i don't know if maybe I just got a bad one or if they are all like that but it doesn't have good color payoff at all, i have to pack on a ton to get it looking right.
I'd have to add Stila La Douce to your list - it is gorgeous and, oddly enough, I am wearing it today for the first time in a while. I also like MAC's Sumptuous Olive but it can go sort of muddy and look more brown than green if you over-blend but still, it had a place in my heart.
Christine, your 5 Ways posts are my favorite! I only have the Comfort Zone color as I don't really gravitate towards this kind of shade but those Inglots look quite lovely.
mac sumultanous (sp?) olive. omg the best texture. this is the quality that mac needs to instill in all its shadows esp those damn quads!
Gooo olive greens! I have Wet n' Wild Comfort Zone, but MAC Sumptuous Olive keeps a very special place in my heart (it's my first MAC).
My favorite is 1. Lancome Designer. Because if you're going green you might as well go dark green! I struggle with this color because I have brown eyes with a bit of green. I find that this shade can look too blended with my eye color. As a fellow brown eyed girl, what do you think are the best eyeshadow colors for brown eyes?
