This is a black e/s with tons of gold shimmer. It definitely has a cast of olive green and creates a beautiful smoky eye. I recently picked this at a local beauty boutique and am really satisfied so far. The only complaint would be that it doesn't look as sparkly on my eyes as it does in the pan. Maybe putting a gold shimmery shadow like UD Midnight Cowgirl or Prescriptives eye shadow effects in warm over top would bring out the sparkle. Also if you use a clear lip gloss to create a wet smoky eye look that is incredible, plus the shadow adheres to the gloss really well.

Enjoy!

Edit: This shadow smudges all over my lid without primer. I used it as an eyeliner the other day and it smeared everywhere. It is such a pretty color that I will continue to use it, but with a primer.

I loved this color when i saw it but alas, it doesnt show up the same way in the pan to the lid. Mambo is a black shadow filled with tons of shimmery gold flecks to it. So pretty! It has this almost greenish/khaki cast to it in the pan. However on the lid, the gold doesnt show up so it just looks like a sheer black. I also tried this wet to line and it also doesnt show the gold, just looks like a black liner. Very disappointing. I wish i got the color variety with this. The shadow comes in a large round pot with twist off lid and retails for $16. Pretty but nothing special.

This is one of my favorite colors. It is a dark dark almost black but almost kinda green with gold sparkle. A color with a lot of depth! This is perfect as a liner and for smoky eye looks. Pauls Dorf shadow pans are ENORMOUS, so they are a real steal and worth eye penny!

I love this shade as a liner used damp. It is a nice black/deep green color with slight gold shimmer. So pretty!! Also works well in the crease, blends very nicely and wears well.
