MAC Eyeshadow Collection Swatches (Requested) Single Shadows


As requested here are the swatches of all my standard size single eyeshadows:


So these are the first 9 shadows and now here they are closer up:


Moonflower, Clarity, Blue Flame, Gulf Stream
Cool Heat, Stormwatch, Parrot, Blue Candy, Vile Violet
Dream-maker
 

And now for the next 9 colours

Haunting, Zonk Bleu, Feeling Fresh, Robins Egg, Aqua

Jewel Blue, Warm Chill, Shimmermoss, Lagoon Blue

I hope that you have enjoyed this, as you can see I just love my blues, greens, teals and aquas, they look similar to look at but swatch very differently.  

Next week watch out for the electric cool shadows and the large shadows from my collection.

MAC Eyeshadow Swatches (Requested) Duos and Quads


So I recently filmed a MAC eyeshadow collection video, if you didnt see that then you can watch it below:



From there I was requested to do swatches of my collection and so here is installment one - duos and quads, next will be the singles (standard size) then next week the electric cool, paint pots, chromaline, and large shadows, ending with the pigments.

So, here we go....
SHADOW SUITE

SHALLOW VS DEEP


DEEP         SHALLOW
So now on to the 2 quads

The first one is one I put together myself and I call this my monochrome palette


Scene, Black Tied, Crystal white and Carbon
The next quad is called Colour Added


Laundry Daze, Colour Added, Pre-packaged, Self-serve
I love, love, love this quad, I got this on ebay and if you get a chance you should pick it up if you like a bit of colour, the white and grey are not amazing, that said, the white is a lovely brow bone highlight. But the teal and yellow are just amazing together and Ive used this quite a lot since I got it.

So now on to the Duos:



Blue Smoke and Silverwear
This duo is lovely, the silver is very sheer but is a lovely brow bone and inner eye highlight, the blue is amazing, its very deep and smoky and has lovely golden glitter particles infused in it.




The silver colour does not swatch or photo to full justice, it has a crystal lilac/blue sheen thats really pretty, and although the blue is quite sheer it really is pretty.




I love this duo its incredible, the teal across the lid and the smoky grey in the crease are just a perfect partnership  The grey has a lovely shimmer to it and i love how the matte of the teal colour works so well with it.




Both of these shadows have a matte finish, this teal is a lot brighter than the duo before and these work beautifully together in partnership to.  I have worn the teal on the lid and brown in the crease and love how it looks.  I would highly recommend this.




I got this duo for the beautiful wine colour, both colours have a lovely shimmer to them and though Im not a fan of yellow gold colours I do love this gold and have used these together, you can check out the golden wine tutorial on my channel to see them in action.




I initially got this duo for this teal, it has a lovely shimmer to it that takes its darkness to a different level and adds light to the surface.  But, I love the mustard colour so much, its a lovely browny mustard that works so well with the teal, another perfect partnership and i just love it when these duos offer 2 amazing colours that work so well and are as lovely as each other.

So, thats it for the duos and quads, watch out for the single standard size shadows next.....
