    My Overgrown shadow finally ran out so I bought Bitter as it looked to be a very similar shade but to my disappointment it wasn't. I found that it was far more matte a shade than Overgrown so it...

    Ahh...bitter... it's is truly bitter sweet. I love the color and love to wear it, but I do hate that it takes a lot of layering and working with to get right. I also find that it does fade faster...

    I LOVE Bitter!! It's such an awesome neon color. I know everyone complains about having to constantly layer it but honestly, I've never had a problem with it because I use a base underneath...

    This color looked great on the SA at Mac. She said she had to layer it on to get the color right. Well thats an understatement. You have to layer it and layer it to get it even close to the color...

    Bitter will make you bitter that they have the nerve to ask $15 for this piece of crap. I love the color but it will HARDLY show up only if you apply it wet and you have to dig in a few more times...

    I was hoping for the POP of colour that was illustrated in the Face Chart for this however it's just not the case. It's a beautiful colour in it's own right but don't take the pan colour at face...

    I definitely agree with everyone in that the payoff of this shadow is not the best.. it is pretty sheer for a velvet & you have to work pretty hard to get it to look like it does in the pan. it...

    I agree with the other reviewers who say the payoff on this is horrible. I like the color. It looks great with Humid, but today I have Bitter on the lid, and almost all of the color blended off...

    Beautiful color in the pan. Unfortunately, on my skin, it is nowhere near as intense as is in the pan even over UDPP. There is shimmer but is isn't visible once applied to the lid. It is easy to...

    While I love the color and I love velvet finish shadows this color is not my favorite to work with. I wish this blended better and had a more intense pigmentation. I bet True Chartreuse pigment is...

    This is a bright apple green color in the pan, but you really have to pack the stuff on to make it show up on your skin. I never use this since I have Sharp from the Cult of Cherry Tempting quad....

    I really love this color, but am disapointed with the application. It takes a while to layer it on to see the vibrancy. I give it 4 lippies because it is a great color, it just takes a while to...
