Perrfect is a bare escentuals eyeshadow that has a shimmer finish and is described as a medium golden green. It applies vibrant when swatched wet or dry. I use it wet and pat on my lid. It's a great lid color me and use my other b.e. shadow in bordeux in the crease. I paid thirteen dollars for it. I'm and NC 50-55.

This looks really bad on me. In the pot , its beautiful, dark olive green with gold glitter, gleam. But on my skin, it turned kinda black, like a black undertone, with a greenish gold gleam. It looks really garish, and even if it did look good on me, I still wouldnt buy this again, because the loose powder sucks big time, and I would rather have this color, or the color I hoped it would be, in an eye pencil form.

Im pretty tan, so this showed up really light on me, with not much hint of green. It still looks gorgeous on, and with my oily skin it doesnt crease - at all. This is the only shadow that ive tried that doesnt crease! Love it.

Great glimmer, looks so beautifully golden-green (not very dark) on skin. I can imagine this would suit brown-eyed people very well.

Got this for fall, very appropriate color for the season!
COLOR: Medium green (leaning on the olive side) with a gold/green shimmer. This is a very warm green.
PROS: Great shimmer, can be used as eyeshadow or eye liner.
CONS: Not a unique shade, there are many greens out there like this (MAC Golden Olive pigment for one).
OVERALL: If you perfer Bare Escentuals to other shadows, get this warm olive green with gold shimmer.
PRICE: $13.00 USD found at Bare Escentuals Stores, select Sephoras and Ultas, and online at Sephora.com or QVC.com

I've started collecting BE glimmers, because they're so unique and beautiful. The colors are complex and so much fun to play with. I was hoping for a rich green with Purrfect, and it doesn't live up to my hopes. It's a golden green that turns grayish on my skin (I'm light-skinned with warm yellow undertones), and seems to fade more quickly than my other glimmers. I wouldn't buy this again - it's just not that great a color.

This is a really pretty olive Glimmer with a very pronounced golden shimmer. I don't usually go for loose eye shadows, but this one is nice. The warm tones in the powder really complement the warm tones in my GGG skin. However, Bare Escentuals' eye shadows tend to migrate around my oily lids, and Purrfect is no exception.
I might actually love the color of this Glimmer, but I found Aveda's Olivine, so I'm taken!

This color isn’t as unique as some glimmers. I like MAC’s Golden Olive pigment a bit more, I think. This is a more subdued, less metallic olive green with gold shimmer. In fluorescent light on my skin, it looks almost like a dark gold, rather than primarily green. I like it but I don’t love it. Probably my least fave glimmer so far, but not bad nonetheless. It does flatter my dark brown eyes, and light skin for sure. I think this would be a good alternate choice if you think that the Golden Olive pigment is too out-there for you.

This is a true green with golden shimmer. I think it's not very special. I much prefer socialite which is a more intense and complex deep mermaid green.

This is one of my favorite green glimmers. It's flattering to my blue eyes and pale skin. I like to pair with other greens, golds, and even burgundies. BE glimmers are my favorite because they don't crease on me and they last all day. A holy grail find for any eye shadow junkie.

I received a generous sample of this from ktm13 (thanks, Kathleen!) and finally tried it. Am sorry I waited so long! I love this color! A beautiful olive with gold shimmer. I used it to line and it made my hazel eyes pop. Am super happy with it and when I finish the sample, I will most likely go buy one. Two thumbs up from me!

Purrfect is a light olive green with golden undertones. Not as dark and brown as pussycat, definately light sage green Very unique color. Looks great on foiled wet! Came in a set with here kitty which looks nice in the crease. Retails for $12 for a small pot that will last forever!

I had this color for a very long time before I got brave enough to use it....It just looks so green in the tub, I wasn't sure what to do with it. After receiveing the BE May TSV, I finally got brave enough to try it. I used Radient Rebecca as a wash and used this color as a crease color and wet it for eyeliner, and let me tell you, WOW it is gorgeous. When wet and used as liner it looks like green gold on your eyes, so metallic and pretty, but metallic in a subtle way, not, I'm a teenager and can't get enough shiny products, really just classy IMHO. When used in the crease it can be blended so well it just leaves a hint of subtle warm green. A really nice color, that works well when applied correctly. I am a PPP w/cool to nuetral undertones.

This is another BE glimmer favorite of mine. It's such a gorgeous olive-green with beautiful gold shimmer. I sometimes wear it with my Stila Bohemian Sage trio and I have received compliments wearing it this way. GORGEOUS!

Meow! I love this e/s! It is an olivey green shimmer. It has the purrrfect consistency. It is the purrrfect color. meow meow meow meow meow. I love wearing this. It makes me literally look all kitten eyed. It softens my look. Even though it's a darker color and I can only pull off choice LOUD colors, this one is purrrrfect. Did I say that already? PURRRFECT! Yumm. Run! Get!

I'm not very impressed with this brownish/black shimmery color. It's too dark to wear all over the lid, but not pigmented enough to use as a shader, or next to the liner. I won't be buying this again. (also, didn't care for the gold sheen)

Any BE Glimmer should last you a very long time - there's a lot of loose product in each pot. Purrfect is one of my favorites - an olive color with gold flashes that I find quite flattering, even with blue eyes. I usually use Purrfect in the outer edge of my lid - it makes a nice contrast against white and/or cream colored washes. Purrfect is one of the only greens I have felt comfortable wearing.
