This shade is beautiful, but for those of you haven't tried Chocolate Brown, I would strongly suggest trying that out before dishing out for Gold Stroke (unless you nab this at a really good...

A little too warm for me but a lovely color. Reminds me of something you'd see in a Naked palette. Looks nothing like gold, however. Looks more bronze to me.

Gold Stroke is a real gem. It applies smoothly and blends easily. Works well as a liner too.

Gold Stroke is a repromote pigment from the fabulous felines collection. It is a lovely plum colored pigment that applies very smoothly. It does have lots of gold shimmer in it, which I don't...

This is a lovely mauvey-brown shade with golden flecks. Great for every day use. Lasts well on top of a primer and is very easy to apply and blend. You can use it with a damp brush to get a...

Found this at my CCO. At first, I thought that this had been misnamed because it is more at the brown side with plum undertones to it. I love the color, it is not overly shimmery...but it...

I LOVE this color! It's possibly my favorite pigment. The color is a really nice brown with a goldish tint. It goes on really smoothly and lasts forever. I hate this is a discontinued color. Please...

i got a small sample of this from a MAC makeup artist. although gold stroke would indicate a burnished gold color, this pigment is actually a neutral brown with a plummy sheen; in some lights it...

I'm not sure why this got some negative reviews. This pigment is a gorgeous golden brown that is a great crease color. It is great paired with melon, gold dust--any gold or champagne color. It...

Gold stroke is a rosy plum color with brown undertones and a very subtle gold sheen. I wear it in the crease with Forest Green pigment on the lid and Gold Mode as a highlighter. This is a...

A sort of very muted, dusty rose-gold with a soft pearly sheen. Gives a pretty romantic look for those with dark eyes. There are pinky tones that might be unflattering for blue-eyed ladies with...

Sometimes I think it´s a pinkish brown, sometimes it shows up more as a subtle copper shade. No gold. I use it with a synthetic wet brush, because with a dry brush it´s just plain brown. This is...

Although I think calling it gold is a little bit overkill, I would say this is more or a brown with a slight gold sheen. This is one of my favorites for a neutral look with helium pigment...it...

not so much gold as it is brown. great to amp up any neutral look with its glittery texture. also great for a brown tint on lips.

I purchased this in Las Vegas at the Cosmetic Company Store for $13. The color is gorgeous, although it doesn't resemble gold whatsoever. It's more of a deep brown/mauve color. I also mixed it...
