    Carbon is definitely a staple for anyone's MAC palette. Pigmented and rich, it goes on buttery but when blended it easily gets all muddy unless you are skilled. I use it frequently to line my...

    I think a good matte black eyeshadow should be a staple in everyone's makeup collection and Mac Carbon is just that. You can use it to line your eyes or make any eyeshadow color darker and smokier,...

    Mac Carbon eyeshadow is a staple of mine. I use it at least 4-5x a week. I've used all kinds of black eyeshadows but Carbon is my favorite. It's very easy to control the color intensity because it...

    Probably the best pigmented black shadow I've found so far. Works great as an eyeliner as well and doesn't fade.

    This is a really strong and pigmented black. I love how well it blends softly with other colours and it is versatile. My only downer is that i'd prefer something really black and at first this...

    This is pretty good as a liner with okay lasting ability. Not a HG but it's what I turn to for black liner everytime.

    I don't think this lives up to all the hype at all. It's hard for me to get enough pigmentation without applying a base first and looks muddy and washed out whenever I try to blend it. The...

    Really really pigmented matte black shadow that I use as a powder eyeliner. Shadows make the most natural-looking eyeliners. It's my staple product.

    This is totally one of my favourite products! I'm actually on my second one. I use it EVERY day, and it's so quick and easy to smoke out, i can just throw it on in a hurry!

    This is def a must have e/s! Works great for darkening creases, a soft black that is very buildable. Love the matte formula!
