MAC & Mickey contractor Eyeshadow Quad Athma : ( Rs 2300)
The two right most colours Folie ( top) and Carbon ( bottom ) are the part of MAC permanent collection.
Folie is plum brown eyeshadow. It has satin finish and a nice shade for everyday neutral looks.
Carbon : It’s a matte black colour. Swatches patchy, goes patchy. It is not an intense black eyeshadow but decent for everyday ear when you don’t want your black to be too stark.
Vivah ( left most top) is a shimmery peachy eyeshadow with golden shimmer to it. it could be used as a subtle highlighter or as an overall lid colour.
Jaan (left most bottom) is a chocolate brown eyeshadow with obvious golden shimmer to it.
I think with a base, these eyeshadows would work just fine but I am not impressed.
l-r carbon, folie, vivah, jaan
MAC & Mickey Contractor Single Eyeshadows : ( Rs 900)
The pigmentation of single eye shadows was much better than the eye shadows in the quad
Marvel : It’s a true purple eyeshadow . It is a frost finish eyeshadow with a soft purply shimmer to it. Decent colour pay off.
Rani : It’s a good Indian bridal eyeshadow. It is also a frost eyeshadow. the shade is bright fuchsia pink but it is not as bright as it looks in the pan.
Saffron : A great pick from the collection. It’s a orangey brown eye shadow . Beautifully pigmented and a great everyday shade.ย
Oomph : It’s a forest green eyeshadow with a golden sheen to it. I picked up Humid eyeshadow instead of oomph because I found Humid to be more wearable. Oomph is much darker and blacker than Humid.
The left most model is wearing oomph on her eyes and the right most has Saffron on her lids.

The quad was very pigmented but there was a lot of fallout when I tried them ๐ Rani also went on a little patchy ๐ but I LOVED saffron – even as an all over lid colour it looked fab and I’m wearing it with woodwinked today :yahoo: :yahoo: :yahoo:

rati…..i dont knw…i feel cosmo is better than mehr…?and lust is permanent in mac no?
Actually i also found cosmo better than mehr because I prefer creemsheen finish over matte. But totally your preference. Oncw upon a time I was nuts about matte finish. Now I am liking more creamy and glossy looks. ๐
Lust is permanent. ๐
It’s over. ๐ ๐ ๐
You like stuff toys na.. :))
me too…can’t have enough of them :inlove: :cute: :kissblow:
Oh!! you guys must show your collection sometime. :))
i likeeey saffron…. :inlove: :inlove: :inlove: :inlove:
:toothygrin: :toothygrin:
Hi Rati,
WOW! Saffron is awesome…. infact, I asked sm1 in delhi to pick it up for moi….
Do a real tute of it na…. I love ur eyes… :drunk: :beauty: :jaiho: :jaiho: :jaiho: :jiggy2: :jiggy2: :jiggy2: :jiggy2: :jiggy2: :jiggy2: :jiggy2:
Tarry I didnt pick saffron myself so cant do a tute. :)) I’ll try to look for a similar shade in my collection, let’s see if I can do something. :))
I didnt really like any of the eyeshadows from this collection apart from saffron…guess i’ll take a call after i check it at the store… ?:)
Thanx Rati :))
check it out., Actually rest of the eyeshadows you can find otherwise also…
oohhh… i liked oomph nd rani.. rest = ok ok…
:))
Passionate color is matte while Rani is frost…both are very good pink colors. I asked MAC online, since Rani was out of stock, she said Passionate is a similar pink. I do have Passionate, so I think i can blend it little with Amber Lights, and get a frosty look….will try!
Nia let me know how it works. Because I do have similar colours in my collection, i might give it a try. :))
