Mac Fig 1 eyeshadow - Review

Hey Bloggers,

Today’s review is on this matte eyeshadow from Mac named Fig 1. It a really nice dark purple color perfect for the crease or outer corner because it is dark and matte. So, there’s my review about it.

So, it’s a really nice matte color. I was really happy to get this because I was looking for a nice darker matte purple for a long time because most of the purple shades I own are shimmery. The pigmentation of this eyeshadow is really nice and I like how it is quite easy to blend. I know that purples look really nice on almost any eye color but I really like this shade for my green eyes because I think it really makes them pop and it’s just the perfect shade that doesn’t make you look tired as some purple can do.

So, I really recommend this shade because it’s really pretty and I like that I don’t have anything like it.

Mac Lip Glass in Nymphette - Review

Hey Bloggers,

Today’s review is on a Lip glass from Mac. This is the first lipglass that I have. The only other lip-gloss that I have from Mac is a cremesheen and I really like it.

- The color is really pretty. I really like the nice pale pink color with golden shimmers. I understand now why I heard peoples talk about it on YouTube. It is actually one of my favourite color because it’s just so pretty.

- The formulation is really thick and sticky. I’ve heard these adjectives to qualify Mac lip glasses before so it was not really a surprise but I definitely prefer the formulation of the cremesheens which are really less sticky and super creamy.

Overall, I still really like the color. The stickiness is something I can deal with because the color is so pretty but I’m not sure for the price that I’m going to buy some more colors of these lip glasses because there’s a lot of cheaper lip-glosses that I prefer.

Mac Zoom Fast Black Lash mascara - Review

Hey Bloggers,

Today’s review is about a Mascara that I got from Mac. It is the Zoom fast black lash mascara. It’s the first mascara from Mac that I buy. Usually I buy drugstore mascara’s because the many high-end mascaras that I’ve tried disappointed me and were just not as good as the ones I tried from the drugstore. So, I didn’t have really high hopes for this mascara because I had already heard so many comments about Mac mascaras not being that great at all. But, these are my thoughts on this mascara in my opinion.

- The formulation is on wet but not too much. It is exactly like I like my mascaras to be. I usually prefer a slightly more wet formulation because I find it is easier to get the product on my lashes.

- The brush is really small compared to the past mascaras that I’ve used. But, surprisingly, it applies the mascara beautifully and I really like how it gives me perfect defined lashes. You know, that look when you see models in adds with amazing falsies where every lashes has the same distance between them and everything is so perfect? That’s the look I get with this mascara. Some peoples even think that I wear false lashes.

- So, I’ve used this mascara for a little over a week now everyday and I still really like it. The only thing I will have to see is how fast it will dry. Sometimes, there are amazing mascara’s out there at first when you open them but it dries up after about two weeks. I hope this one is not like that because I really like it.

So, overall, I really like this mascara. I would recommend it to everyone. Honestly, it’s really hard for me to choose a favourite mascara but I think this one if it’s not my favourite, it’s definitely one of my favourite mascaras of all time and this is a big thing because I’ve tried many many mascaras ever since I started putting on makeup, never buying the same twice.

Mac Mercurial Mineralized eyeshadow - Review

IMG_4647

Hey Bloggers,

This is a review on Mac’s Mercurial Mineralized eyeshadow. It’s the first time I try some Mac mineralized eyeshadows. I received it at my birthday in a set from Mac that had this eyeshadow, Nymphette lipglass, Zoom Lash mascara, Well dressed blush and Pretty baby beauty powder. I really like that set and I find it is an amazing value for the price. Unfortunately, it was limited edition but you can get most products separately or you can try to search in your local CCO because that’s where I got it

- This eyeshadow really is a surprise. You see all these pretty shades in it like pink, burgundy, purple, lavender and gold. I was really curious to see how the color would turn out. When all mixed together, it turns out a nice beige champagne color. The color is really not intense. It just adds a nice touch of shimmers to your lid.

- I really like the shade and I think it’s kind of cool how the color turns out but I think the product is way more pretty in the pan than the color all mixed together. I would really have liked to see the purple of the color a little bit more because on your lid, nobody can tell that there is some purple there.

Anyway, beside that it’s still a good product and I will for sure find many different combinations to use it with. The only thing is that I don’t really think it’s that unique and I think it’s not a must have color especially at the price it is.
