Lime Green Eye Shadow Swatches!

After procuring the latest Sugarpill lime green, AcidBerry, from the Heart Breaker collection I decided it would be a good time to swatch some of my lime green vegan eye shadows.

I swatched (from left to right in the photo below) Sugarpill Acidberry pressed eye shadow, MTcoffinz Acid Reign pressed eye shadow, and my own Zombify Margarita loose eye shadow.

Sugarpill's Acidberry is definitely the closest to a classic green, it has more blue in it out of the three shades swatched and slight sheen/shimmer. MTcoffinz's Acid Reign is more yellow green and very shiny, near metallic compared to Acidberry (I suspect the two would look amazing in a look together!). My own Zombify Margarita loose shadow is more of a golden/yellow lime green with shimmer. The swatches were done on bare skin (right) and over MTcoffinz Under The Rainbow primer (left), so you get an idea of how the colors look with and without primer.
I'm excited to play with the colors together to create various looks! All colors can be built up or toned down for bold or subtle looks. 

I'll be sure to post what I come up with! :) 

Stay Spooky,
