I tried to take a picture but hot damn it's HARD to get the color to show up properly on photo! It doesn't help that there's no natural light so I had to cope with the lighting in our bathroom. Anyway, here are two shots. All I have on is Groove (over SN primer on the lid, foiled on the lower lashline) and a very thin line of Coal.

It doesn't look so green in the last picture and the shimmer doesn't show up properly but hey, I tried :D

Anyway, my point is that if you want green I think Groove might be better than Gargleblaster, but it's not what you want if you're looking for a cool, emerald green shade as it is a warm green. It is also not really green-green but more of a brownish green, but then there's the sparkle and the complexity about the color that makes it look different in different lights... ah! :)

Annika: You have beautiful eyes and lashes. Is there a "slightly jealous" smiley?

It looks gorgeous on you Annika, I skipped that in favor of gargleblaster because it was a brownish green, and I wanted a green green, but I like that one better. Oh well, something for my next order :)
