I love this pigment as well as so many others. The coloring and multicoloring is so beautiful and makes it great as both a stand-alone shade and as a blendable e/s worth experimenting with. I feel...

I really adore this pigment. I love using this as a crease color, or even eyeliner. Its a nice medium green color with some golden shimmer. Very, very pretty.

This is one of the more unique, but wearable pigments that MAC makes. Golden Olive is just like it's name sounds, a light olive green with gold shimmered through out it. The gold is alot heavier...

I'm asian and I don't like green in general, but I do like this pigment. It's light green with gold specks. Reminds me of spring.

I LOVE this pigment! This really makes my brown eyes "pop". It's not very dark, but not really a dark color either. The gold glitters specks are a little annoying when they fall onto my face, but...

Beaufiul color. I find it a bit light and bright on me so i mix it with some light black eyeshadow at the corners. I will either buy this color again or the green-brown one

This is a really eye-catching shade of goldish green. just a bit darker than chartru paint. i think the name 'olive' is a bit misleading because it is not dark green as it would suggest. this color...

For sure the gold shows up a lot more gold than green. I would of loved for the green to come out a bit more but overall its fab!

I agree with everyone else that this is way more gold than green, and more green than olive. On my FFF skin it turns into a golden burnished green hue. It looks awesome with MAC sprout e/s in the...

For me, Golden Olive isn't really "olive" per se... the "golden" rings pretty true, but on my NC30 skin it flashes sort of a pea green that's been sparkled with a lot of gold. I don't reach for...

I got this as part of the 2003 Glitter Petites set. It is a really pretty olive green with gold shimmer. It is very similar to UD's Cream e/s in Go Army, but it is a slight bit lighter. The...

This color is pretty versatile. I love the look on my lid mixed with my Stila Jade Blossom palette. It really brightens up the eyes (and my eyes are blue).

A gorgeous golden-green, but definitely not olive. It's a much lighter green, more golden than green. (It looks a little like Sprout.) On its own, its not the greatest color for my olive, Asian...

Very interesting color, gorgeous on its own, a beautiful shimmery olive-gold color with more emphasis on the gold. But on my eyes, it looked very strange, I like the warm golden olive shade, but I...
