The skin around your eyes is a particularly sensitive area, so it's important to pay attention and read the ingredients. To avoid any reactions, make sure to read the ingredients and look for formulas that are hypoallergenic. These all can cause a reaction, especially if you're allergic to latex or have pretty sensitive skin. Read the ingredientsĪ lot of eyelash glues may contain ingredients such as latex, formaldehyde, and/or acylates. Typically, the brush glue is better for those who want to be more precise, as well as beginners. Then you have to consider the formula: The classic squeeze bottle or the brush-one adhesion. The black is a great choice if you want the eyelash to blend seamlessly into your eyeliner and mascara, but if you're not careful or ~skilled~, it can get a little messy.

The thing is that in my local MAC store, they have limited shades available in the refill pans, so I am adding what I can get and like. I have added two more shades which are Cranberry and Carbon Black.
#Mac eyeshadow combination pro#
I have bought a MAC pro palette which I intend to fill in with more gorgeous colors.Update Posted on 6th August 2016: Hello again everyone. I will definitely be getting more of their eyeshadows. This worked best as a base on the lid with an eyeliner on top being a must. Once swatched you can see the pearl finish. MAC Woodwinked: This one is is veluxe pearl finish and is a warm antique gold color in the pan. Very fair skin tones would be able to carry this off as an eyeliner too. I needed to pat this on using either the MAC 239 or my fingers onto my eyelid area. MAC Electric eel: This eyeshadow is a satin finish and is bright blue with subtle shimmer. This is the best use I found for this eyeshadow. Applied with the MAC 219 works very well for lower lash line for a smokey effect. MAC Embark: This is a matte eyeshadow and is of a reddish brown color. Swatches: MAC eyeshadows – Dry Swatches MAC eyshadows – Wet Swatches All three lived true to the finish as given on the MAC website. Now about the three eyeshadows that are being reviewed here. With a primer the effect would be more longlasting and even greater color payoff. All the swatches were done without using an eye shadow primer. First off their pigmentation is very high as you can see in both the dry and wet swatches. I must say that MAC eyeshadows have a very superior quality as compared to many other brands out there. Say for instance use MAC 239 for all over lid, MAC 219 for lower lash line or MAC 217 blending brush for the crease. Use appropriate eyeshadow brush depending upon which areas you want to use the eyeshadows on. Shades: Embark, Electric eel, Woodwinked Cranberry, CarbonĬan be used wet or dry.
