Illamasqua's Viridian, from the Art of Darkness Collection. This is a beautiful peacock green. It glides on like a dream and you CAN get away with one coat if you're careful. Absolutely. Adore.
When applying this, I did start to think of potential dupes. Jump to see whether this little lovely can be replicated.
I compared this to Barry M's Racing Green and butter LONDON's British Racing Green. Neither quite match Viridian.
The butter LONDON is very obviously different as it is, effectively, a cream with a hint of shimmer.
The Barry M is closer but it's a much darker green. If I had to really define the difference, Viridian is like a natural emerald in the way it sparks off light, whilst Barry M is like a simulated emerald. Both beautiful. But very different.
Viridian was provided by the amazing Christabel of Makeup Mole. For more information on YGN's Disclosure Policy, please click here.
