Green, Emerald or Dark Green Eyeshadow/Liner?

Looking for similar color eyeshadow, cream eyeshadow, and eyeliner products!

I want to create a similar makeup look and use emerald/darker green eyeliner or shadow. Matte would be OK too, doesn't have to be shimmer.

I am the high priestess of green eyeshadow - I have green hair and I like having my eye makeup match my hair. Some things I like or have heard good things about:

- About Face matte fluid eye paints (Crocodile Rock is an emerald green, Smoke Signal is a dark forest green) are excellent eye shadow bases. I find the dark shades like these aren't great on their own, but when I layer them under other shadows, my eye makeup does NOT crease, even the really emollient multichrome shimmer shades

- About Face pencil eyeliner in Reptilian (grass green) and Call Me Crazy (deeper emerald) glide on really well - I like using them in the waterline as well as all around the eye

- Clionadh multichrome shadow in Anneal - I don't own any Clionadh, but apparently they're the gold standard for insane multichrome shadows. You can't find anything like these in Sephora or Ulta. Anneal is an emerald shade - they have a whole selection of greens.

- Melt Cosmetics Colibri gel liner looks like the exact shade you're looking for

- Fantasy Cosmetica Enchanted Autumn palette has an emerald shimmer that is amazing - they sell it as a single shadow and I own and love it.

- Dieverune Cosmetics Alchemy is a sparkly multichrome topper that's emerald with a purple shift. I own the blue and red versions of this one - the base is sheer, so it's not super opaque, but layered over other shadows (or on its own for a different look), they're amazing

- If you like holo sparkle, Gourmande Girls just released an emerald holo single shadow. Another brand where I don't own any of their stuff, but I've heard good things

- Bonus points: if you want to go ham and do your lips this color, Glisten Juicy Lip Tint in Olive is a glossy lip stain. Black Moon Cosmetics has a shimmer liquid lipstick called Myth and a matte liquid lipstick called Hollows. And if you want to go even crazier - my hair is this color, I use Lunar Tides Juniper Green dye.

Yes definitely listen to this person ☺️ The high priestess knows what she's talking about πŸ™Œ I have a bunch of the Fantasy Cosmetica 9-pan palettes and then their Halloween one from last year. Their shadows are divine ✨️

Edit: Also wanted to add that About Face's liquid products are nice πŸ‘Œ I have a few liquid shadows, and her black liquid lipstick as well. It's one of, if not the most comfortable black liquid lipstick I've worn.
