The components is meant to be a “extremely pigmented powder” that goes on “evenly and blends properly.” MAC eyeshadows run the gamut from complete failures to long-time, cult-favorite staples. Generally, the everlasting line has been extra constant in performance–and greater efficiency at that–compared to restricted version launches, however it may possibly actually rely.

The Matte end tends to have a firmer press and a little bit of thinness in comparison with different matte formulation available on the market, so MAC matte eyeshadows have a tendency to construct up higher and have higher wear-time with out fallout as they are not powdery in any respect. A few of the newer matte end shades have had a extra velvety high quality to them that provides them a softer really feel however aren’t powdery; these have been simpler to mix and are sometimes extra pigmented in a single layer.

The Lustre end is designed to have sheerer pigmentation, and it usually has extra sheer to medium protection with a drier, dustier consistency that may be laborious to use with a dry brush. Lustre end shades can undergo from fallout throughout utility, too. They’re the old fashioned model of an eyeshadow “topper.” I’d suggest making use of with a fingertip or making use of with a dampened brush to get smoother, extra even protection and decrease fallout.

The Satin end is few and much in-between, however it’s softer and extra yielding than the Matte end however performs equally. They have a tendency to have very low sheen however are fairly blendable with medium to opaque protection. It may be straightforward to combine the end up with the Velvet end, which has extra of a sparkle-over-matte impact however are extra powdery than the true Matte end.

The Frost end is extra firmly-pressed into the pan however would not have fallout, is commonly pigmented, and blends out properly sufficient. They will typically be a bit drier to the contact relying on how a lot shimmer is within the shade. The Veluxe Pearl end is without doubt one of the creamier takes inside the vary, and newer shades launched within the end are inclined to have extra average, silicone-like slip. I’ve discovered that Veluxe Pearl end shades are inclined to have extra semi-opaque pigmentation and are extra constant in efficiency than a few of the different finishes.

One factor I’ve discovered with MAC eyeshadows is that they have a tendency to last more with out primer than the typical model (eight hours). Whereas some eyeshadow shades do not swatch properly, they usually apply higher in practice–as in on the eyes!–than simply swatched on the pores and skin. They are often fairly hit and miss, they usually have inconsistencies between releases (see Carbon and its sordid assessment historical past!).
