LOVE this shade. It's a greyish olive green with a hint of gold shimmer in the bottle. One coat leaves an olive green, almost opaque, and the gold shimmer is noticeable in the light. Two coats leaves a dark olive green, and the gold is less noticeable in the light. From afar, after two coats it just looks like a dark green, I really love the colour for fall. I love Essie polishes, the lasting power is great and the applicator makes application easy.
