Dolce & Gabbana Agave and Bronzo Crayon Intense Eyeliner

The new eyeliner shades from Dolce & Gabbana summer are Agave #15 (a metallic ivy green) and Bronzo #14 (a silvery taupe). These retail at $29 each at saks and come with an angled smudger at one end with the actual liner on the other. The D&G eyeliners I've tried come in three finishes: matte (like Black), matte base with shimmer flecks (like Coffee or Stromboli) and then a frost (like Shimmer). Agave and Bronzo for summer are the shimmer finish which have a softer but buildable application/finish. They are easily blendable for a smokey eye. The colors are beautiful but lasting power is average and fades by late afternoon. They don't smudge though unless you rub your eye.

Comparisons to Bobbi Brown Ivy, Chanel Black Jade, Laura Mercier Antique Jade, D&G Agave, D&G Bronzo, D&G Coffee, Urban Decay Underground, Chanel Rose Platine and Bobbi Brown Bronze

I like, but it's not love. The textures are nice and soft but the color payoff is almost too soft and subtle for my preference. I personally don't see how either go with the summer quad this year. I do feel that these are better suited to complement the Chanel Perlees Ombres and Regarde Perle from Spring though.
