MAC Seaside Cream Color Base Review, Swatch, FOTD
Seaside is part of MAC Me over Collection so I am not sure when will this be launching in India.
Ingredients :
Claims : Versatile and multi-purpose, Cream Colour Base can be applied directly to bare skin, or layered over foundation, moisturizer, or powder. Apply with a brush, sponge, or fingers. Colour effects range from a light veil to highly dramatic, depending on method of application. Fragrance-free.
Price : Rs 1,050
Seaside is described as soft peachy rose. You can read the detailed review of MAC cream color base HERE, HERE, and HERE
Although MAC cream Color bases are quite a versatile products and can be used on eyes, lips and face. Seaside is not recommended to be used on lips.
It is a shimmery peachy rose color and excellent for those with dusky skin tones, especially. This is best used a s a highlighter. Sometimes MAC cream Colorbase in Hush and Pearl can look a little ashy on dusky skin tones. Seaside is sort of rich warm color that would blend with dusky complexions. Even on my skintone (NC 35) it does not look over the top or add much color to my face. It’s just a nice shimmery highlighter , which is creamy but not greasy. It blends easily and I prefer to use my fingertips with this.
The only caution would be that if you have big pores, do avoid using it as it would accentuate the pores. Also if you use a lot of it , you may end up looking oily and greasy.
The highlighter stays on me around 3 hours on its own, which is not a great thing. So it’s best to top it with a powder highlighter to make it last longer. Also, it creases on eye lids if you use it all pover. I suggest using it only on the entre of your lids after you have done applied your eyeshadows.
Swatch : 
This is how seaside looks on me. I have applied it lightly on my cheek bones,bridge of the nose, cupid’s bow. Infact I used it on the centre of my lids as well.

It is looking nice Rati!! 🙂 Me liked!! 😀
thanks cali. 🙂
You look lovely Rati….. have you contoured your cheeks also with a pinkinsh blush ?Your cheeks look good
I think this is an okay kinda product…..certainly not a must have.I think my maybelline mousse in peach would give a similar affect.
Looks like lakme lip love conditioner on your lips.Am I right?
Monika, on my lips is lakme lip love lipstick aphrodite blush used on top of a pinkish lip balm. 😀 Not a must have monika. But cream color bases in general are nice things to have in collection. Not contoured but that’s how i apply my blush always. 🙂
thanks. 🙂

gawgeeeus rati :rose: :rose: :rose: :makeup: :makeup: :makeup: :makeup: :mirror: :mirror: :mirror: rati, my first impression of this product is that it is very close to lakme rouge blush in ginger surprise…..esp on the swatch…..i may be wrong….but is it so???? and it seems a lil expensive :waiting: :waiting: :waiting:
that is a powder blush and would some color. this almost looks like a highlighter and would give a bronzy sheen in those with very light skintones. That is more like a blush if that makes sense ?:) ?:)
acchha….. :headbang: :headbang: :headbang: but the color is same na??? ?:) ?:)
i’d say they look close 🙂
