I love this eyeshadow. I had been lemming it for a while and then I finally got it in a swap. It's such a pretty light, shimmery, beige-y pink. I love to use it just as an overall wash. What more...

I had high hopes for this one, but I wasn't really that impressed. On my fairly pale, neutral toned skin, gleam looks almost orange peach, and I guess I was expecting more of a champagne or...

This is the only MAC eyeshadow that I hate. The color looks lovely in the pot, but when I apply it, it does nothing for me. Far too chunky, glittery, flakey, and just hard to apply. I know that...

I was all excited with this color in the store, but now that I have it at home I'm not enjoying it. The texture is not very smooth, it comes off chunky on the brush. You have to PACK it on to get...

When I bought this I was so excited. When I got home was another story though. The Lustre texture (already known for being gritty) was especially gritty and the light pinkish-golden shade pretty...

although i don't like the gritty texture characteristic of Mac Lustres the subtle, feminine and OH SO pretty hue makes this a star eyeshadow in my makeupbox. Gleam is a sparkley pinky apricot with...

this is almost the exact same color as expensive pink, but with more shimmer. I love golden pink eyeshadows, and this was a nice addition to my collection.

I bought this in the summer just because it caught my eye at the MAC counter - I was actually looking for Honey Lust, but they were out... Anyway, it worked pretty well for me then. But not now....

I have to say I usually avoid ALL Mac lustres, but during a recent makeover I had no choice, b/c I let the m/a pick what she liked for me. She used gleam on my nc42/44 skin (dark brown eyes) and it...

I bought this in the pro palette so I did save a few bucks. I love how this can be a highlighter without being the traditional "white" highlighting for under the brow. I use this with patina and...

I guess I am the minority, I really like this es. It's a bit gritty and dry, in comparision to something like Milani or Urban Decay. This however does apply evenly, and it has a nice pigmentation...

This is a great color. I have the palest skin ever, so not many colors work on me without making me look creepy. But this color works perfectly. It is just the right shade of pink and has just...

Beautiful color but this is one of the worst lustres in terms of texture! Go for UD's X instead, same color, MUCH better texture.

This is a shadow I was truly dissapointed in. My eyes are bluish green and looking at the color in the pan I thought it would make my eyes pop. In the pan the color is a vibrant metallic peach. ...

A really gorgeous colour, but impossible to apply. The colour just does not show up, and the glitter doesn't stay on the skin. Not MAC's best colour.
