    This brown is good for a countour and shading color. I was very hesitant when this was used on me yesterday for fear that it would give me the look of having "the black eye effect". I was so...

    I picked this up finally last week based on the great reviews on MUA and my desire for a medium brown e/s. So far I'm loving it! It is beautiful pure chocolate brown matte e/s, that blends easily,...

    Most perfect brown I have ever found. No red or plum. Just BROWN! Creamy texture, matte finish but isn't chalky in the least. Extremely happy with this impulse, love at first sight purchase. ...

    After reading the reviews on here I decided to give Handwritten a go. I've used MAC matte's before and I didn't think there would a difference between those and the newer matte2 products. I am a...

    Handwritten is my go to shadow. It's a very pigmented pure, dark brown (without any reds, coppers, etc). I wear Handwritten as a wash and woodwinked on top of that with Plum Dressing in the crease....

    I use this as my brown smokey eye for my outercorner/crease for night time over texture which I use for daytime. I love that I only need one tiny stroke of it and the pigmentation is amazing. It's...

    nice contour/outer-v/crease color- it's definitely warmer than EMBARK and a TAD bit lighter... makes a great eyeliner too!

    The most amazing brown ever. It is my HG eyeshadow. Applies a true brown, not reddish at all as I thought it would. Easy to apply, the texture is amazing. This is one of my favorites from the matte...

    I just purchased this color today because I needed a matte color to add to my collection. The sales associated told me that the matte2 shades go through a more refined process than the regular...

    I bought Handwritten on a whim, and it turned out wonderful. This is such a great eyeshadow, both in pigment and in texture. As everyone else has said, it is creamy, and it is also very rich. I...

    Handwritten is a dark brown, completely matte shade. While many matte eyeshadows are chalky and hard to blend, this is a dream. It is so soft and blendable with strong staying power. It looks...

    OK - I never thought I'd be giving a "5" rating to a brown color, but I just did. There are a log of things about this shadow that make it unique. First of all, I think that in the realm of...

    It's weird, only 5 people reviewed this color. Well, I think it deserves a lot more reviews and a lot more populairty. It's not a special kind of color but the texture is so great. I love it as a...

    This is such a great product, especially for filling in brows or for lining the lid for neutral or smoky eyes. It has a very smooth, almost creamy consistency, and the staying power is great. It is...

    MAC's Matte2 eyeshadows are very smooth and a pleasure to apply and blend. Handwritten is a warm, dark, soft brown. I use it on the outer corners of the eye where it makes the eyes look bigger,...

    I really do like this color! It is described as a "rich chocolate brown" and i think it's pretty accurate. It has some gray/taupe tones in it, so when I wear it, it doesn't necessarily look...

    I love the creamy, soft formulation of this e/s, and I find that it applies nicely. Easy to build color with this formula too. But the color is just so-so, nothing special, just a matte medium...
