MAC describes Scene as a muted blue-grey. I agree with the description. On my ~NC20 skin it can look dark and intense when built up. The blue tone is more apparent on my skin than on the...

This is one of the better shadows by MAC in terms of staying power. Great in the crease with a silver or mauve sparkly shadow on the lid for a smokey eye.

Very nice grey shade. You can use it to Create a smoky eye or use it for a more natural look, very versatile shade. Today I wore it with naval in the crease and a vanilla type shade on my whole lid...

Slate is a shadow that blends quite well and is easy to sheer out or to build up. However, I do have some problems with the color fading pretty fast.

Edit- Someone on the boards suggested that scraping off the top layer would potentially help with pigmentation. I tried it and no cigar. This eyeshadow is JUST THAT BAD. -- Literally just one...

Definitely on the bandwagon! I'll echo what everyone else has said... *medium gray with a lavender blue-ish undertone *sheer but buildable color (for reference, I'm NW20) *fades a bit during...

One of my favorite MAC colors. Long lasting and not messy, like all MAC shadows, beautiful staying power, beautiful color!

I really like the colour and look of the eyeshadow once I get it looking good. I find it powdery and sort of patchy. I like this eyeshadow and use it, but when I run out I'll look for a replacement.

Mac Scene eyeshadow (Satin finish) is one of those unique shadow colors for me that there is nothing like it. When i run out i repurchase. They describe it as a muted blue- grey and it has no...

I know you're not supposed to use greys for black eyebrows, but my curiosity got the best of me. I used to use Copperplate to fill in my very sparse black brows, but I found that it pulled way too...

I really love this color. It's a pretty blued out grey that is really lovely. I don't find it to be sheer at all.

First of all I do not understand how people are saying that this is sheer! For me I barely touch my eyeshadow brush to it and it comes out super dark and pigmented! In terms of blendibility it is...

I bought Scene because I couldn't get my hands on Sephora City Fog. I don't like the price increase with these.. it was over $16 with taxes. Blah!!! I was looking for a light/medium matte gray with...

Scene is a wonderful, cool, bluish/lavender gray. It works well for a smokey eye which is difficult for me to find as I'm NW5-10ish (depends winter v.summer). If applied lightly it also works well...

I don't love this, although I use it pretty often as a crease colour when I'm doing soft smoky eyes. It doesn't have a great staying power and I find the colour payoff is also quite flat. It's very...

This is part of the grey family in my neutral pro palette and it's lovely- a nice mid-grey with a very slight violet cast. Looks lovely as a smokey eye with Print in the socket line, or you can use...

Scene is a gorgeus cool grey color which creates a timeless look. I pair it with Perky which I believe was a LE color and Yogurt. Scene can be paired with many other eyeshadows, its one of those...
