Goes quite well for all light to dark-medium skintone range.

MAC says Dazzlelight is a neutral with shimmer but I think it is more of a soft beige white with a hint of warmth. If you like a noticeable shimmer in your highlights Shroom might be a good option for you! This color is extremely popular since it is a very neutral highlight, meaning it does not lean pink or yellow. Just like Mylar, MAC calls it a Satin, but Brule appears nearly matte on the eye.Īlthough MAC considers it a Satin, I think it is much more like a frost. It can be used as an all over wash or a very subtle highlight and also for for transition blending. It can look a little chalky because of its finish and color, though the payoff is good and application is smooth.īrule is a close match to most light skintones. Mylar has a mostly-matte finish though MAC enlists it under satin. I think it is great to wear when you want to do a neutral no-makeup look. Orb is similar but more pinky/peachy.Ĭolor – Creamy white with shimmer but it is more like a subtle sheen It’s soft and easy to work with and has good pigmentation. There is a tiny bit of sparkle in the pan, but it doesn’t really translate to the eye. Vanilla is a thumbs-up shade for fair, light and even medium skintones. It does a great job of covering up any discoloration under the brow.Ĭolor – Ivory with slight pink undertones It’s also one of those shades that looks classic on its own.
It is great for blending out other colors or toning down anything a bit too extreme or harsh looking. Because of the slight bluish tone, I think it pairs easily with other MAC colors such as Shale, Steamy, & Surreal.
I would prefer to describe it a wash of pink with a HINT of lavender. I compared this to White Frost, and this is a much more pigmented eyeshadow, and it blends really well. It’s a really pigmented shimmery white that makes you look more awake, and it really makes your eyes look bigger.

Dark skin tones might find this a bit bold and bright. It’s the perfect inner corner/brow bone highlight shade, especially if you have fair, porcelain skin. It can be an interesting shade to use, because of both its brightness and the frostiness of its finish, so using a light touch with it may be best. If you would like one similar to this with shimmer I would suggest you to go with MAC Crystal Avalanche or MAC Vapour. I would advise to use this only if you want a very strong highlight, or if wearing purples, yellows, blacks or greens. I hope that you find this helpful in your search for the perfect highlighting eyeshadow from MAC! On a bit more advanced mode, it’s good to have one neutral, one yellow based, and one pink based highlight – but it is not absolutely necessary! I would recommend having at least one matte and one shimmery highlighter to begin with. It is wise to mention that as the swatches of most of the colors look close enough to be thoroughly confusing so visiting a store and trying it on your skintone is the best option! well, unless you are a MUA working on a remarkable variety of skintones and looks. I must say, any makeup addict might be tempted to hoard all or most but you in no way need this many!. MAC has an amazing number of highlighting eyeshadows!
