I have a bit of a busy week - work, school (part-time), a trip to Ottawa for the doctors, and to top it all off I have a cold. Hopefully I will be able to put one more review up after this one before the weekend.
Here is todays review!
Product Brand and Name, Price (CDN), Where Purchased
This Limited Edition Mineralize Eye Shadow Duo came as part of the contents of the MAC Glamorous Mineralize Kit from the Tartan Tale collection.
The kit may be available at your local MAC counter, and you can still order it from the MAC.ca website. I bought it from the website for $58.00 CDN. The eyeshadow is not for individual sale, so I cannot give you a price for that alone.
Reason for Purchase
Part of the MAC Glamorous Mineralize Kit from Tartan Tale collection.
Notable Features
It’s Limited Edition and you cannot buy it on it’s own.
One half of this eye shadow duo is a warm metallic shimmery golden brown with a darker brown veining and the other half is a metallic shimmery off-white with pink veining.
Packaging
This eye shadow duo comes in the standard black MAC compact.
The duo would not fit into an eye shadow Pro Palette.
Experience Using Product
I really like using this duo. I have used the off-white/pink side both as a highlighter and an all-over lid color. I’ve used the golden brown/dark brown side as a lid color - and it looks great over ‘Indianwood’ Paint Pot or ‘Constructivist’ Paint Pot. Right now this eye shadow lives in my makeup bag. I find myself reaching for it almost every day - even if it’s only to highlight my brown bone and inner corner!
Would I Re-Purchase, Recommend, or Reject
I would recommend this eye shadow to someone who doesn’t have an eyeshadow like this in their collection already. However, I would not recommend buying it to you if you don’t want anything else that comes in the set (mascara, a lipglass, and a Paint Pot) - it won’t be worth your money.
If MAC were to re-release this shadow in the future, I would pick up another one. I would not buy another Kit to get it, though.
Want to see if you can still get this Mineralize Kit from the Tartan Tale collection? Take a look for it on the MAC website here.
