oh sunny spot is so damn sheer.. it’s not even funny . π
I would like to applaud the hardwork u have put in for this post….it’s commendable…v v informative and helpful for everyone who ever plan to buy MAC eye shadows…..
absolutely infact my hand is itching itching so bad so spend some money on these LOL i can see my hubby rolling his eyes π mac is quite expensive in KL infact more expensive than india π but dont think this is gonna stop me from hauling..hehe..i have decided to get atleast one mac product a month and obviously will start from eyeshadows! eyeing club and bronze!
Hats off to the immense effort and love put into this post. At the risk of repitition, I would like to say, I adore and respect you!!!
Well let me go back and look at the swatches now π
If you had to choose 4 all over lid color, for nc 42 which ones would you suggest?
hey rashmita..soft brown works very well for all over the lid and even satin taupe is very pretty as lid color..apart from these I can see myself wearing expensive pink, bronze, patina, cork, texture..lol the list is long..for your reference I too an NC42
M completely dumbfounded and I feel like Alice in Someone Else’s Wonderland π
I bow down to thee for taking the pain n trouble of swatching alllll of these! …and that milady is what I call a ‘personal touch’ π
Wow.. hats off to ur patience!! IMBB deserves to be the best… Every shade looks gorgeous in itself.. π hoping to get atleast any one of them this year end.. π
OMG..Rati..this is the most helpful post ever.i will definately tell my frnds to chk this one out for eyeshadows.. amazing job and nice true to color swatches !!
OMG!! Awesome compilation Rati π I am falling in love with amberlights, bronze, antiqued and twinks. I HAVE to pick up one of these. I wanna start practising with single eye shadow first, would that be a good idea? Which one shall I pick in that case?
rati di i will adore and respect you for my lifetime for your passion and hard work! Even mac wouldnt have such an elaborate guide book on their eye shadows! I fell for all the pinks and browns. I am getting twinks and wood winked right away as i know they are un paralleled! Will try to look for inglot dupes for the pinks! i guess a whole pack of imbb reader husbands are going to write mails to you reg the sudden and unprecendented shopping modes that their wives have gotten into!!!!!!!
RATI!!!!!! hail u holy queen of eye makeup… tussi great ho… this is sooo amazing.. thnk u so so much… im eyeing nocturnelle and satin taupe..n maybe expensive pink n sumptuos olive :p :p
Its an amazing and extensive list, painstakingly made, lovingly enriched π Its gonna help many, as sometimes MUA and sometimes I am clueless.. The other day i asked MUA in Dubai, as what shade according to you will suit, so she was like, “that’s for you to decide”! No doubt, i will decide, but its confusing many-a-times seeing so many shades.. This guide is gonna help me.. π
This is just amazing *pompom* …. m getting married next month and i was going crazy with what to buy n not stuff..Thanks Rati…u made my day by posting this article….i regularly read your blog and it is extremely useful for me… *thankyou*
