    I’m on the hunt for a subtle highlight and thought I would try this out. It’s another glitterbomb sadly. I will not repurchase.

    My favourite way to use this is as an eyeshadow base. Although I've never experienced creasing with it over at least 1 year that I've owned it, for others it might be a bad idea to use it like...

    So beautiful for highlighting cheekbones for those who have larger/ congested pores like myself. It creates a natural shimmer that doesn't intensify the pores ect. Wouldn't use with a brush...

    YESSSS! I love this! I'm a shimmer fan, so this is just perfect for me. It looks lovely in natural light, like your skin is really healthy and shiny. I also have a Cream Colour Base in 'Hush', and...

    In my 40s I found that I could no longer wear powder shadows without getting a lizard-y, drying look on my lids. So I was really happy when I found MAC's cream color base in shell. I really like...

    I generally like MAC cream color bases, but not this one. The color is pinky beige and it doesn't really work well with my NW20/25 skin. Besides, it is the texture that I am not a fan of: instead...

    This works great for highlighting on me. The pinkish/golden pearl finish is beautiful. It's versatile, I use it to highlight brow-bone, nose bridge, cheeks, and just above the cupid's bow.

    Shell is a gorgeous cream highlighter with a peachy beige shimmer that imparts a very natural luminous glow. I don't know why this is considered a blush by MAC because it's NOT a blush! It is a...
