    This is my absolute favorite base/highlighter color. I reach for it every day. It goes over the whole lid from eyebrow to lashes, so it works as base and also highlighter. That's the genius of it!...

    My Vanilla is very old, in the twist top packaging. I rediscovered this color and have been using it more often lately. It's an ivory white or eggshell shade without shimmer. I like using Vanilla...

    Mostly I use this product as a highlighter. It goes on smoothly and I use one or two swoops under the eye brows or in the corner of my eyes. It's a nice, suble neutral but can be made more dramatic...

    I was at the MAC counter looking for something that would be a great versatile neutral to use as a highlighter/base/brightener/wash... everything. The closest I have right now is Bamboo, and it's...

    Vanilla is kind of a chalky white with colorful little shimmers in it. It looks great on my brow bone and works wonders for waking up my eyes. Love it! A must have!!!

    This was the first MAC eye shadow I ever bought, and I've used it a lot over the past year. That being said though, the more time goes on, the more I realize that it doesn't actually look that good...

    A warm ivory white with subtle glitters. This color doesn't clash with my warm completion like pure white does. Great highlighter for the brow bone, but I didn't really dig the glitters. I replaced...

    This is everything that I wanted MAC Vanilla Pigment to be. It is a buttery vanilla shade that has just the right amount of pigment. It shows up on my lids and really brightens up my whole face. I...

    Very light vanilla colour, nothing too exciting. It's a bit chalky and although I'm very pale it doesn't really show up on me. I just use it as a highlighter but I prefer other shadows. Not a...

    This was the first MAC eyeshadow I ever bought because I thought it would be a good base shade for my PPP skin. But it is too pale for that and I only rarely use it as a highlighter on the brow...

    MAC shadows last forever. Beautiful light vanilla shade with no sheen. I use this all the time and will replace it when it's finally used up! The most practical shade I've ever bought, along with...

    This shadow is horrible. It's so chalky that it's hard to get it on the brush, much less transfer it to the eye. I read some rave reviews on MUA about Mac vanilla pigment. I don't know if...

    Vanilla is a satiny off-white color, no shimmer but not chalky either. I use this eyeshadow when I am visibly exhausted. I brush it all over my lid, and, here is the important part: I also apply...

    Vanilla is a pretty color for highlighting the brow area. Adds just a touch of shimmer but doesn't look frosty like some other light MAC shades. Good to help neutralize a bright color.
