Deep blue green vs forest green

[ilexica]

Hey! A quick comparison question:

To me deep blue green and forest green look really similar! Is there a big difference in colour? Which one do I need?

TIA!

They are pretty similar looking in the jar, but when I swipe each on the back of my hand, they difference is more apparent. Both are pretty dark and smokey but Deep Blue Green has a decidedly blue shimmer beside Forest, which is a definite green shimmer. Kind of like the difference between Blooz and Tarnish eye kohls.

I can't help you with that much since I don't have either lol, but I was thinking you might want to post a swatch request in that thread & maybe someone can swatch them for you!

They are both stunning colors and I reach for them often. However, Deep Blue Green may be DC'd. That is what the MA at the Pro Store told me when she sold me the last one.

I have both and I love Deep Blue Green It has more depth than Forest Green, and well, more blue LOL. I rarely wear just greens. DBG has a very pretty, more complex shimmer.

They ARE different, but it's really hard to capture the difference in photographs. This was the best I got after like 10 tries:
