I would certainly buy this again but of course my luck is that it is discontinued already. I was lucky enough to get it on MUA in a swap! The color is so lovely and perfect for Spring. The pigment is nice and bright enough to blend. I blended it with a gold and blue for a nice seductive eye look. I love how smooth it goes on! (I have now been wearing it for a week and receive more compliments on this e/s color than I have in the past two years!)

Yellow-green. Think spring green. Next to it's dazzling kin it's not all that impressive, but once you put it on...well there's no stopping the love. It's sheer enough to be a great support color, and looks amazing mixed with a nude color and/or an accent color. It's a perfect green for the conservative workplace actually.

Ahhh, I love this color: shimmery yellow-green with gold highlight. It's really unexpected, and makes my turquoise-y eyes look dark blue.
It's sheer but buildable, especially if you use a primer, so it's very possible to wear it to work. It's also one of the few makeup products I've been complimented on by a non-makeup using person.
Yes, this product is discontinued, so you currently can only buy existing stock. I picked mine up at ULTA. They still had a few of the eyeshadow duo packs with Midnight Cowboy (a pinky-gold beige) kicking around for $19, so I would try there or before hitting up the RIP section on the UD site.

I absolutely adore Acid Rain! I have dark brown eyes with little flecks of green, and this e/s is THE perfect compliment! It looks like a crazy shade in the pan, but it comes out as a light greenish-yellow on the lid. It is very wearable and suitable for office wear (when you want to be a little spunky lol ;) I saw on UD's website that Acid Rain has been discontinued. I haven't even made a dent in my first pan, but I quickly ordered another single to make sure I had an extra on hand. I paid $17 for this and would definitely repurchase if it wasn't discontinued!

Nice wearable color that's still off the beaten path for someone my age. Office appropriate and classy yet shows some individuality and style. Looks nice with mildew or chains in the crease or no crease color at all with sellout in the browbone area and black eyeliner. As usual, even without primer, staying power is above average.

A light green with yellow gold shift, shimmer eyeshadow - that blending well, needed to build it up if you wanted some serious color from it and totally not for me.
To cool toned for my NW/NC 25 or Light-Medium with Neutral/Beige Undertones coloring.

Really pretty color, would prefer it less sheer, but the sheerness of it means it's good for the daytime despite being such a bright color. Unhappy with packaging though. Heard great things about UD and got a cheap, light-feeling plastic container. Meh.

Gorgeous! Lime green in the pan but goes on a golden green - nicely pigmented with shimmer that looks glowy and sophisticated. Texture is blendable and smooth. Good for lid or inner corners.

This is a really pigmented shadow from UD--it's lime green with some sheen, and shows up really nicely. Would def. buy again.

This is a beautiful light green colour which looks great with my dark eyes (although id imagine it would suit all eye colours) its very soft and easy to blend, however the pigmentation isnt that great - although its not awful, it just takes a few extra strokes to apply to the desired effect but it is worth it. probably would rebuy if i ran out.

I like to wear this with Twice Baked in the crease and it looks absolutely gorgeous (in my opinion). It ends up being almost the exact color of my eyes and makes them stand out SO much. I get compliments all the time. The only reason I don't give this a higher rating is because I don't reach for it very often.

such a beautiful lime-green !
actually it looks just pearly on my lids - i gotta apply a bit more to achieve this wonderful lime-green eyes effect.
to line my eyes i always use MAC humid - and i got the perfect green smokey eyes ♥
if youīve already looked at Urbandecay.com donīt think itīs as holographic as on the picture !
itīs almost monochromatic.
maybe a slight sheen of gold.
a tad bit disappointed !

Oh, Acid Rain, how do I love you? Let me count the ways . . .
Acid Rain was amongst the first of my high end eyeshadow purchases, and though amongst the plethora of those that I now own I do not wear it on a frequent basis, it is still one of my all-time favorite eyeshadows. It's true chartreuse color really compliments my pale blonde visage, and pairs well with golds, deeper greens, or purples. It also applies like a dream, with full coverage on the first swipe of the brush.

Got this as part of my Sideshow face case. I'm super yellow and warm toned and this looks very pretty on me. It really highlights my dark brown eyes without being too white or too yellow. Staying power isn't great but better if worn wet.

When I first bought this I didn't like it too much. It was lighter than what I was expecting but over the passed few months it's really grown on me. I like using it on the inner corner of my eyes paired with darker greens but this color can be extremely versatile even if it is a little unusual (light apple green is a good description imo) because the pigmentation is buildable and different looks can achieved because of it.
I wore it paired with UD Graffitti, Victoria's Secret's "Wink" and a random green from my ebay palette and got loads of compliments. :)

The colour of this eyeshadow is a pretty, light-apple green. As with UD shadows, the texture is soft and the pigmentation is great. I just need a bit everytime I use it, and it goes well with my fair-medium warm skin and black eyes.
When worn alone as a light wash, it makes my eyes pop and looks great for a fresh day look. Other times, I pair this with Mildew (medium-dark green with a light golden shimmer) for a slightly more dramatic green eye.

You probably can't be color-phobic in order to like Acid Rain, but while it looks like an intimidating light green (more lime than mint, with yellow undertones) in the pan, it can be applied pretty sheerly to give the eyes a nice bright pop. I typically wear it with Mildew (see pic in profile). It's not an everyday color, but it's fun and surprisingly wearable, and of course has the great UD quality of good pigmentation and lasting power.

Delightful shadow. I wasn't sure it would be for me as they say after a certain age one should stay away from sparkle, but this really comes off nice. I especially like it paired with the Urban Decay liquid liner in Thames.
