    They've discontinued this in the pro pan form. Anyway, this is a great matte white. You can use this under vivid colours to make it show up more and give it a pop! I think it's a must have...

    Every home should have one. Great for lightening things that are too dark, toning down shimmer, using as a matte highlighter, all that jazz - but it also makes a great 60s dramatic eye paired with...

    It's very basic and, yes, very boring - matte white but it's just perfect if you have already used some glittery/shimmery darker eyeshadows and would still like to use a highlighter without ending...

    Great e/s to blend with other e/s. It's a matte white that you need to layer in order to get a bright white. However, I like it slightly translucent so I don't pack it on. I would repurchase but I...

    This is a matte white eye shadow. In my opinion it could be more pigmented, this one needs to be layered for it to really show up as true white. I use this when I'm creating a 90's matte...

    I really like Gesso. It is a basic shade but it's a good one. I like it because, unlike a lot of other matte white eyeshadows, this isn't chalky at all. I find that a lot of drugstore eyeshadows...

    Yuck...wasnt impressed by this at all. The color is a very boring white matte. The only reason i gave it two lippies was for its staying power. Will not be repurchasing!

    It's a basic matte white. Buy it once - it'll last forever and there's no need for a re-purchase. Useful - and also boring.

    This is a good, basic matte white. I like to use this to highlight under my browbone, it really brings out my eyes. I got this in a palette, but wouldn't justify spending $14.50 on it. There are...

    This is a staple -- a pure white matte eyeshadow with good opacity. No sparkle, no frost, no shimmer. Just white. And it's not invisible, either, like many white eyeshadows. You can apply it...

    A matte white eyeshadow that shows up. I love it. Although you would think you could get a cheaper version, it's quite difficult to find non-shimmery white, and when you do it barely shows up on...

    As everyone else has said, this is your basic matte white eyeshadow. It's quality is of what you would expect from MAC, highly blendable, longlasting, and etcetera. However, it is still just...

    This is your basic white eyeshadow. I'm sure you could find a cheaper version of this at a drugstore. It does work well to lighten up other shades, though.
