    There is absolutely nothing amazing about this e/s. There are so many others out there that are just so much better than this. It goes on too chalky because you are not able to blend it out, it...

    Amazing shadow. I love this. Gorgeous highlighter. Vanilla is the perfect name to describe it, as its not completely white. I love that It's not frosty. It is more matte with slightly chunky...

    I was looking for a color to highlight my brow bone area (sorry, I'm not a MA but am pretty sure this describes what I am trying to do) and the MA recommended this color. I feel like it doesn't...

    I bought this as a highlight, however I am pretty fair use its not the best highlighter for me, so I use it to go around the outside of my shadow to just kind of clean it up and it works amazing....

    Instead of buying the pigment, which I thought would be to shimmery, I opted to purchase Vanilla in eyeshadow form thinking it would be a good highlighter because of all the 'hype' over it for...

    I love this eyeshadow so much. I use it as a highlight and sometimes with pale colored looks for the inner lid. It looks amazing on me when I'm really pale because it's just about bone white and...

    I use this every single day (almost) as my highlight. I've had my pan for almost a year and I still haven't hit pan! Since it is a Velvet, there's that pointless shimmer in the shadow that barely...

    This is a really nice highlight color. I have been using this quite frequently. I hit pan on it quite a while ago, and I think I will get another one if it gets used up. This is a good highlighter...

    I had high hopes for this eyeshadow but I was left wanting a little more. It looks nice in the pan but it seems to be a little chalky to me and you can blend it into your skin and it can almost...

    I think Vanilla e/s is excellent for highlighting the brow bone. It does look very dupable but the finished product is much better than drugstore or low end products. I like that it is visible on...

    Here's the thing about Vanilla. I like it. It's a good quality shadow. I have used it as a wash of color over the lid and as a brow and inner corner highlight. That being said, I do find this to be...

    I agree with the previous comment, vanilla is a nice color, but it is way to overrated, i know there has got be a dupe out there somewhere.

    IMO Vanilla is one of the overrated MAC eyeshadows. I mean it's ok, but not at all wowing me. It's a little too sheer for my taste, hardly shows up on my skin. Will not repurchase.

    This is my favourite MAC eyeshadow because it is the perfect hilight. Although sometimes it comes off too white! But if you only use a little then it is perfect and it is also a really nice all...

    The more I use it, the more I love it. It is a perfect glitter- and shimmer-free highlighter. Sometimes I use it under my brow, sometimes on my lid. I have blue, deep-set eyes, and this really...

    This color looks nice in the pan, but I cannot make this shade look right on my NC42 skin! I've had it for months and it always seems chalky, almost like translucent powder. It probably looks nice...

    This is a staple in my makeup routine. It is the most neutral base ever and just evens out your entire eye area. Sometimes I just wear this alone. Other times it's great as a highlighter either...
