| Mac Power Hungry Palette |
Pigmentation
These shadows are buildable and easy to work with, but those expecting a highly pigmented palette will probably be disappointed. You really do have to layer the mattes up, and I'm fair skinned. While I was at the store, I was told the shimmers apply really well with your finger. I've used both a small concealer brush and my finger and I have no issues. I do tend to use a glitter glue as a base, since I don't like glittery shades to transfer to my crease. When it comes to Mac, I do get a little confused with their finishes. A shadow will look like it has a sheen but when swatched I realize it will be fine in the crease.
Packaging
This palette comes in sturdy cardboard packaging, it feels very nice and has a mirror closure. The names come on a clear sheet, and I would have much preferred to have them printed on the palette. The overall size was a little smaller than I expected from online pictures, but it's still a nice size. I have no issues with the smaller pans when it comes to brushes.
Highlighter
The highlighter was a part of why I chose this palette. Some of the other palettes had a darker highlight that I knew wouldn't work for me. This highlighter is very nice- not blinding, but very nice. It looks very natural on my skin which I do like.

All very beautiful shades! I find that MAC mattes aren't the easiest to work with! xx

I struggle with the mattes. You have to really build them up.
DeleteGreat review! All of the shades look beautiful x

This looks pretty! Nice neutral colours! Great review!
ReplyDeleteAt one glance this is a beautiful palette but after reading your review, I don't think this will suits me at all. I am medium skin tone and I doubt the mattes will appear on me at all.

I added a swatch photo but it was really hard to take since the mattes are faint on my skin.
DeleteOooh the highlighter makes t harder to pick a palette. Love that they included one though!
ReplyDeleteThat highlighter does look beautiful!

Out of all of them, this is the one I would've picked! Looks beautiful. You should swatch them on your arm, so I can see how they look.
