My go-to green eyeshadow these days, it is a unique green color with a hint of pearl & gold. Pretty by itself, amplified when paired with a rich brown like Antiqued or Twinks, it's a must have for...

This is a great color for brown and hazel eyes. Its so super blendable and is generally a go-to color for me. It looks really good with woodwinked

Well. I would've thought I'd have written a review of this by now - I mean, this was one of the first MAC items I bought. Who'd have thought $14.00 (at the time) would end up costing me this much?...

One of my favorite color combinations is this in the crease, patina on the lid and a little bit of embark in the outer crease to create a natural and soft smokey like eye.

Sumptuous olive is a pretty olive color. I think the other MUA reviews could give a better color description..but MAC mentions it as being a "khaki with pearl" although I think it is more green...

Gorgeous, gorgeous, gorgeous. Veluxe pearl is my favorite finish and this color does not disappoint. It works for me (I admit to being a very neutral gal when it comes to shadow choices) because it...

I have had this in my palette looking lovely for a few months, and for some reason never touched it. I guess I was too busy playing with my neutrals and this one intimidated me somewhat. This...

Although this isn't one of my favourite MAC shadows, i do like applying this colour with a light brown, and i use it alot by itself as well. I think it looks really nice with a dark green eyeliner!

I bought this product earlier in the year, and only used it a few times, as even though it looks really nice in the pan, when applied, it was quite a dull Khaki Green.It didn't do anything for me,...

I LOVE this shadow. It is a very complex shade as there are quite a few colors going on. It makes you look like you spent a lot of time on your eyes. I usually only wear matte shades, but I make...

I love this shade as a neutral. It's soft and blends so easily but the pigment color stays on. Veluxe pearl is the best texture. It's a khaki metallic green, like moss green and not a bright olive...

I honestly never thought I could do green shadows, but the MA put this on...and it was just such a beautiful golden olive shade...you'd have to look closely on me to see that it's green, otherwise...

This is a deep, metallic-y olive green. Although it looks dark in the pan, I feel it goes on well - I can brush on lightly for just a hint of green or create a deep dark green.. Just a hint of...

The first mac product I ever purchased. I was pretty new to makeup and fearful of color. This was green... But just BARELY. Very pretty golden mossy color. Next to humid on the eye it doesn't even...

I love the lush, velvet texture of this shadow and how distinct and different this shade of green is. It's an earthy, mossy, olive green with golden brown undertones. I LOVE green shadows and as...

I love this MAC shadow. I have hazel eyes, so depending on my mood, I can wear makeup that enhances the brown or green in them. Sumptuous Olive brings out my green in the best way. My favorite way...

On my NW15 skin the color of Sumptuous Olive in the pot and the way it looks on me are two different things. It looks like a "true" olive in the pot, but once I apply it I get very strong bronze...

The color of this shadow alone is worth 5 lippies. It is a really gorgeous shimmery golden green tone which really makes my brown eyes pop. It is a veluxe pearl consistency so it applies very nice...
