Greens aren't my favorite, although the right khaki can create a beautifully understated smoky eye, but I'm finding that I have a soft spot for Bobbi Brown's Fall 2009 Ivy League Collection. I suspect that a large part of that may be a result of the collection's name, but in my defense the Illamasqua artist that I spoke to told me that I should experiment with more greens as they look great on me! See I'm not entirely illogical!
- Long Wear Gel Eyeliner in Forest Shimmer Ink ($21): For me this looks to be the highlight of the collection. As many of you know, I happen to love Bobbi Brown's Long Wear Gel Liners for their smooth, skip-free application and beautiful pigmentation, and when they include shimmer, well that just makes for an even happier Jen!
- Eyeshadows in Golden Leaf, Bash and Ivy ($20): I need to check these out in person but I'm confident that at least one of these deep greens will catch my eye.
- Creamy Eye Pencil in Jet, Walnut, Charcoal, Caviar, Hunter, Midnight, Brown Plum, Mahogany and Dusk ($20)
- Lip Crayon in Honeysuckle, Coral Pink, Raisin Berry, Posey, Dusty Nude and Wild Rose ($22)

saw some swatches & loved the eyeshadow in golden leaf & posey lip crayon. i wonder how the creamy eye pencils compare to the gel liners in terms of wear. need to see these in person!
Me too Nicole! Creamy eyeliner always makes me think of horrible smudging so I'm hesitant, but I just may check it out the same.
I agree with you on BB's gel liner. I still have the one I bought almost 3 years ago. It's a pretty shimmery brown. I like this one too. and the eyeshadow. I'm really into greens at the moments and blues. I think it's my inner rebel trying to break free. LOL
LOl T.R.! I think this green could be beautifully wearable, even in a professional environment.
