Does anyone use mascara in a colour other than black?

I'm wondering whether my usual black mascara is too heavy a look for my quite minimal make up look. I wear Benefit They're real as it stays put far better than other mascaras on me, including other tubing mascaras like Estee Lauder Double Wear mascara.

But my make up is quite low key/ BB cream, neutral eyeshadows, bit of blusher or bronzer and then a nude or neutral lipstick. I look like I have make up on, but its not high impact or anything.
I'm wondering about dark green mascara, if such a thing exists in a tubing mascara (as anything else gives me panda eyes). I have mid brown hair, green eyes, pale skin.

Blinc do a great tubing mascara in both navy and purple

Thank you for so many ideas. I've bought the benefit they're real in brown today. It's a sure bet for me as a mascara as I've used it before and I know that it stays put all day on me. I like it in the brown, it's not a dramatic change from the black, but it is slightly more subtle. I would live to find a dark green tubing mascara, but I imagine that's the holy grail!

I have brown eyes with a lot of green and wear purple or navy on my lower lashes as i normally line underneath with a burgundy pencil. I like the Rimmel Kate Moss ones. I've got the NYX violet mascara, it's ok but a bit watery.
