This colour has surprisingly low colour payoff for MAC. It looks stunning in the pan but very light on the lids. I have to layer it 3 times before the colour looks remotely like what it does in the...

This is an okay color. I really love purples and I probably have all of Macs purples. But at first, I was really excited for this shade. But once I got it, I was very disappointed on how it turned...

This is a nice purple shade but the consistency of this powder shadow doesnt add up to the other mac shadows i own. Color is relatively hard to get on the brush, not that easy to blend, doesnt...

I really like this colour - it is a lovely violet (wow, who would have though tht? :)) with golden sparkles in it. It looks simply beautiful in the pan. However, it is not as bright and vibrant...

It is really seldom that I can wear purples. There are only few ones that I have succesfully worn without looking like I got punched in the eye. Thsi is one of them and it is quite similar to...

I don't really understand a lot of these reviews about this product. I got this eyeshadow in October 2007, and it is still absolutely fine as of January 1st 2009 - I haven't noticed it drying up,...

I don't wear this one a lot. The color payoff isn't that great , not considering how bright it looks.

I am rarely unimpressed with my MAC makeup, but this color is a leaves a lot to be desired. It isn't very pigmented, and you have to use a lot to get decent color payoff. It is also very dry and...

I have used this product for many years, and although I have found myself reaching for other purple/pink shadows lately I still love this. It definately makes my green eyes pop, but the only...

What's most disappointing about Creme de Violet is the texture and finish. It's supposed to be Frost, but I'd say it's more like Velvet. It applies matte and rather chalky, and does not blend well....

I'm going through a purple/pink phase, so this is a nice addition to my collection. Like many have mentioned, the gold shimmer seems to dissapear once applied, but thats not a problem. Today I...

Love it. I love purples because purple is such a royal color and eyeshadows in that purpley realm make my light brown eyes pop!

I love this color on my lids. I mix it with Tilt and blend and I love the blending of purple and blue. They make my green eyes pop. It's definitely not an everyday color combination, but every...

This is the perfect purple for my blue-green eyes. Really makes them stand out. Finally, a purple that is not muddy, not too blue or too red, just right. It looks scary at first and very 80's...

I have used this for years, at first I loved it, made my green eyes pop, now I may be a little bored of it, not really reaching for it but still keep it as part of my layering staples.

Loved the color in the pan. Unfortunately on my eyes it wasn't as pretty. Used it over a base but made my eyes looked bruised and tired. Its such a disappointment.. back to the store it goes..
