i really love this shade. i'm not usually one for colored shadows like this, i usually just use highlighters, but this is a lovely metallic, non-glitter teal~green. super lovely on and totally blendable, this really makes my green eyes pop! staying power as well, it never creased on me and i don't use a base.

This is a gorgeous and unique shade. It's a metallic-shimmery (as opposed to glittery) peacock blue that looks very pretty applied wet as a liner. It really brings out the grey element in my grey-green eyes, especially when I wear soft blue sweaters or tops. The texture is lush and soft like velvet and smooths on like a dream with a push brush. My only gripe is that it, like virtually all UD shadows, fades from my lids, which necessitates reapplication. Said manuever wouldn't be much of a problem if this were a mid-range or light color that I could swipe on quickly with a sponge applicator, but since this is such a deep/dark/complex shade, bringing out the Visine and push brush in the ladies' room in the middle of the day is a little much to ask. Almost no one else on MUA seems to the have fading problem with UD eye shadows, though, so you might not be so afflicted.

Envy is a dark navy blue with just a sip of teal, but it looks mostly navy. It's shimmery, but not extremely so, and there's no glitter. The texture is very smooth and silky. When paired with UD Shattered eyeshadow, a shimmery medium teal color, the "peacock" teal tones in Envy are more apparent. Envy and Shattered look perfect together for a blue mermaid-like smokey eye. Love it. Too bad it's discontinued.

Goes on my eye as a nondescript navy blue. Nothing that stands out about it except for the fab texture. I can't imagine wearing this as anything but for a smokey eye.

This is a really pretty color blue. I think I can get away with this for work. Kiddypool blue is my fav UB blue color but a bit much for my job.

Envy is a shimmery smoky peacock blue. Excellent pigment as with most UD e/s, and has a nice smooth texture. Would repurchase this shade.

One of my fave UD shadows- blue green and metallic sort of color. So pretty and unique, and it looks great in the Bad Girl FC paired with Sin. Great stuff ~

Well I was disappointed with this one because I had to layer it so much to get the right depth of color, something I don't expect from UD. It was also not as green on my eye as I wished. It has been described as "peacock blue-green" but isn't all that bright but is more smoky imo. Maybe it would look better over a primer.

A nice peacock like blue. It’s one of their older colors so it leaves the pot a bit chunky...but nice dark, rich color. A nice slate blue like color, very shimmery/metallic blue. Looks like MAC tilt, but darker. It goes on a bit smooth.

Envy is a very unique metallic blue color with hints of gray. Some have mentioned hints of green, but I haven't seen any when I apply this shadow. Because this shade of blue is so pretty and unique I usually don't mix it with other colors, I just apply it on the lid and lightly line with Mac's carbon. This was my first Urban Decay purchase and I really like the smooth texture, it makes for a really easy application. (DDD/NC45) However, I had to take away a couple of lippies because Envy creases like crazy.

Surprisingly, I find this colour indispensible. It's a deep metallic ocean blue that many would find a little over the top when used on it's own. I use it on the outer corners of my eye and it gives my eyes that little oomph when I'm using shades like MAC's Dark Soul or even MAC's Steel Blue pigment. Sometimes I even use it with Aveda's colourwash for a beautiful sea green look.

Simply an incredible color! This is sooo beautiful, I LOVE it! A rich deep metallic blue that is really unique. It feels silky and lasts the whole night through hours of dancing. Just gorgeous...you MUST go look (and buy!) for this!

Wow, this is just the blue I was looking for! It's a deep, metallic blue (maybe even a blue-green) that looks great as a sheer wash on the lids for day, or layered on at night. I used it wet as a liner, and it makes the color stand out even more!

I ris and it wasnt in very good condition but i thought i would test it once to see if it was worth purchasing one before i threw it away. It wouldnt suit me as a eyeshadow as i am too pale but it made a very nice eyeliner. This is a very dark blue that is almost going into grey but not quite, i didnt like it enough to purchase it again. But as with all ud eyeshadows it is a very unique colour and lasts a long time.

One of my fave shadows! I line with this wet & it really enhances my dark brown eyes w/o being too dark, yet it's a fun color & not a boring neutral.

This is a gorgeous, super pigmented shadow. It's a very, very shimmery deep blue, no glitter. Their Website calls it a deep metallic blue green, but I do not see a speck of green in this, it's all blue to me :o) The only thing I don't like about this is that while ususally I can mix my UD shadows together to make other colors, I cannot find any that will mix with this. Other than that, I'm so glad I own it!
