I'm so proud that I can finally share with you my completed MAC 15 eyeshadow palette!! YeeeeeY!!! I started this palette when I was over in Florida for a Christmas holiday after many, many months of deciding do I really need this palette? YES of course I needed this palette! It is seriously like my best friend, it comes everywhere with me. This may be a very long blog post as I have 15 of the best (in my eyes) eye shadows to show and tell you about!!
MAC matte lipstick 'Taupe' Description: Muted reddish-taupe brown Matte finish New, boxed & always authentic here New (19) from $22.82 & FREE Shipping on orders. This creamy matte lipstick features high colour payoff in a no-shine matte finish. The perfect matte formulation of the iconic product that made MAC famous.
So lets start with the first three in my palette; Blanc Type, All that glitters and Soft Brown!
Blanc type (Matte2)Blanc type is a great creamy beige shade which is perfect as a brow bone highlight or an inner corner highlight. This eyeshadow is highly pigmented so a little goes a long way. As the shade is matte and also neutral it works well as an over the lid base colour to set a primer. Blanc Type is a must have eyeshadow in my collection and would recommend it to anyone starting a MAC palette.
All that glitters (Velux Pearl) All that glitters is one of the famous eye shadows MAC produce. It is a peachy/ pink shade when applied to the eyes, however in the pan it looks more of a Champaign colour. The eyeshadow is a colour that could be worn all over the lid for a day look, I would pair all that glitters with charcoal brown for a day time look or satin taupe for a night time look. All that glitters is a versatile eyeshadow which would be a good starting MAC eyeshadow.
Soft brown (Matte) Soft brown is the eyeshadow I first purchased as a crease transition colour. It shows up on my skin as a warm brown/ orangey colour. What is compressor for mac. The eyeshadow is perfect as a transition colour as it is very versatile and is easy to blend out. I wear soft brown almost everyday and has become a must in my eyeshadow palette.
The next three eye shadows I have in my palette are Mulch, Charcoal brown and Handwritten!
Mulch (Velvet) Mulch is a neutral golden brown colour when in the pan looks slightly shimmery. I love to wear this eyeshadow in my crease as a suttle smokey eye with All that glitters. However on my eye this shadow shows up as a matte finish. I have started to wear this eyeshadow more often and would definitely recommend it.
Charcoal Brown (Matte) Charcoal brown is one of my most used eye shadows in my palette. I use this eye shadow every day to fill in my eye brows. It is the perfect matte mid tone brown colour for eye brows, I would definitely recommend it to anyone who has mid tone brown eye brows. I also sometimes use charcoal brown in the crease as a brown smokey eye.
Visual studio mac gui. Handwritten (Matte2) Handwritten is a purple toned brown which works well in the crease. I've only worn this eye shadow once and it was quite hard to blend it out, however when I finally did it look like such a pretty shade with Naked lunch! I would only recommend this eye shadow to people with patients!!
The Next three eye shadows are Naked Lunch, Sweet Lust, and Quarry!
Naked Lunch (Frost)Naked lunch in my opinion should be in everyone's eye shadow collection. This eyeshadow is a peachy, Champaign colour which has a bit of shimmer in it. I use this eyeshadow with pretty much every other eyeshadow I own, all over the lid, it is so versatile. I think naked lunch would work well on every skin tone and therefore would recommend this eyeshadow!!
Sweet Lust (Lustre) Sweet lust is a pinky Champagne colour with pink glitter throughout. This eye shadow is very discrete and I usually use it on top of another eye shadow such as naked lunch to allow it to stand out more. I would not recommend this eye shadow as it hardly shows up and has a lot of fall down and would not repurchase this either!!
Quarry (Matte) I say this about a lot of my eye shadows but this is one of my favourite MAC eye shadows. It is a taupe/violet colour which is very similar to MAC Haux! Haux to me is more of a plum colour. I like to use this eye shadow for a everyday make-up look in the crease with naked lunch across the lid. I would definitely recommend this eye shadow to everyone as it is a must in my eye shadow collection!!
Mac Spirit Vs Taupe Sandal
The next three eye shadows are Haux, Satin Taupe and Shale!
Haux (Satin) Haux was the first MAC eye shadow that I bought and since then I have de-potted it to go into my 15 Palette. It is a plum shade with brown undertones. I like to use this eye shadow as a crease colour or as a plum transition colour!! As it is similar to Quarry I don't reach for this eye shadow as much as I used too. I would not repurchase this eye shadow again as I would prefer Quarry.
Mac Spirit Vs Taupe Suede
Satin Taupe (Frost) Satin taupe is also one of MAC's most popular eye shadow! This eye shadow is one of my favourites, its a grey/purple shade that has a slight metallic look to it. I would wear this throughout the crease on either a everyday make-up look or if I was going out somewhere. Satin taupe is versatile and very easy to blend out, I would definitely a eye shadow I would repurchase.
Shale (Satin) Shale is described as a mauve/plum colour with subtle shimmer. I have never used this eye shadow on myself however when using it on a client I found it was very easy to blend out as it is versatile. I pared this eyeshadow with Naked lunch which made Shale stand out. I am definitely going to try this eye shadow out on myself sometime soon to see what it looks like on me!!
The final three eye shadows I have are Blackberry, Sketch and Typographic!
Blackberry (Matte) Blackberry is a muted purple shade that is very versatile. I usually put this eyeshadow in the crease if I'm doing a dark purple smokey eye. I like to build up the eye shadow as it can look to heavy all put on at once! I would repurchase this eye shadow!
Sketch (Velux) Sketch is a warm purple with little bits of glitter in that doesn't really show up on the eye. This eyeshadow makes my brown/green eyes stand out lovely! I like to use this eye shadow in the crease of my eye paired with quarry or naked lunch for a smokey eye. Sketch is a highly pigmented eyeshadow which can make it hard to blend out. However I would in the future repurchase this eye shadow.
Uninstall adobe cs6 mac. Typographic (Matte2) Typographic is a dark grey however in some cases can look quite black. This eye shadow is so soft and easy to blend out. I like to wear this colour in the outer corner if I'm doing a very dark smokey using blackberry or sketch just to darken it up even more. I originally wanted Carbon by MAC which is a black eye shadow however I wasn't sure if it would be too dark, I would repurchase typographic again however I think I will also purchase Carbon in the future too!
So that is all my MAC eye shadows I currently have I'm sure I will be repurchasing more soon ahaha!! I hope you enjoyed reading about my favourite eye shadows from MAC. Let me know in the comments any eye shadows you think I should try out
