    i guess i'm in the minority here when i say that this product was just okay. it's a really pretty color in the pan, but when i put it on all you see is the gritty glitter that just ends up falling...

    I've never had a problem with the lustre shadows. I've found that the best way to prevent excess sparkles from falling onto your face is to blow on the brush a bit before you apply. That gets rid...

    Was SOOO much easier to apply in-store than at home, this particular Lustre is one that you gotta use with a slightly damp brush or your fingers to really get a good colour out of it. that said,...

    I was disappointed with Retrospeck. I wanted a champagne shadow that would blend seamlessly into my skin as nude shimmer. Retrospeck looks more gold on the skin than it does in the pot, and the...

    Beautiful shimmery shade; I'm sure the reviews below have explained it well enough! I like to use this as a liner below my lower lashes as well as the lids. Only problem I'm having so far with...

    This is the 6th eyeshadow I have purchased from MAC and I love it. I picked this color out on a whim after testing it out on my hand. It's a georgeous champagne gold with silver. I like using it on...

    I cannot say enough good things about Retrospeck. It looks great as a highlighter, and it goes great with so many other MAC shades. I especially like it with Idol Eyes or Expensive Pink.

    Retrospeck is the perfect pale shimmery gold-beige shade to use as an eyelid wash/base. I find myself reaching for it regularly. Despite its paleness, it's nicely pigmented, which of course MAC...

    My favorite MAC lustre eyeshadow. This shade is an icy pale gold, but it's not frosty at all to me. It's great as a wash, or highlighting, or with a smokey eye (for smokey eyes, I like to pair this...

    I got Retrospeck in my Crystal Palette, and im glad i did. Retrospeck is a gorgeous very shimmery golden color, and is perfect to use on a day when you want to look natural yet fun. Also works well...

    I used to use Retrospeck religiously as a highlighter under my brows and in the corners of my eyes with MAC Brun e/s. It is a shimmery neutral gold with yellow undertones but definitely flakes...

    I use this with my MAC Bronze eye shadow. The two colors compliment each other well. It is also nice for a touch of sparkle when you don't want to overdo it. I love the velvet texture, too. Great...

    I normally try to stay away from the Lustre eye shadows at MAC. They tend to be chunky, difficult to blend, and break up easily within the container. Retro-Speck caught my attention when I...

    I love this as an all-over lid color. Very neutral and shimmery. Looks beautiful paired with Woodwinked in the crease.

    For some reason, even though I don’t particularly love Stila’s Kitten, I adore Retrospeck. Like Kitten, Retrospeck is quite frosty and shouldn’t be considered for any subdued looks. However, I...
