Mac Malt Eyeshadow
Price : Rs 720 fore refill
MAC describes Malt as soft pinkish beige. It is a matte finish eyeshadow.
MAC Malt is a netral beige eyeshadow with mauve undertones. For my skin tone it works perfectly as a matte highlight color. It blends in seamlessly with my skin tone and gives that soft clean look to my brow bone area and I can also use it as a highlighter for inner corner. On days when you don’t want a shimmery highlighter, Malt comes in handy. those with lighter skin tones can also use it as an overall wash of color. It sort of looks chalky on my NC 35 skin tones. I’d rather have a wash of Soft Brown all over the lid than Malt. It goes on very smoothly on skin and does not have any fall outs . It is pretty pigmented for the color it is. It blends in smoothly and the saying power is really good. I mean from morning till evening , I still see the color on my inner corners.
Personally, I feel Malt is not a must have color for most Indian / wheatish skin tones. What it does (highlighting inner corners and giving clan look to the brow bone area) , a regular compact at a fraction of price can do the same. You can pick up a compact , which is slightly lighter than your skin tone and use that. Or else you would find this shade in any of your palettes also.
The eyeshadow in itself is excellent. It can make a great companion for a everyday makeup and can also lift up the eye area without much fuss.

Swatch
There is no EOTD for this look because it rarely shows on my skin tones. It just blends. ย I had tough time showing it in the swatch as well. I am wearing Malt in inner corners of my eyes HERE. Check if you can figure it out. ๐
