TESTY: Mac reflects and pigments




Just a note on the MAC reflects. They're somewhere in between a pigment and a traditional glitter. They are really finely milled, so they're still elegant and easy-ish to apply. But like all glitter does, they do migrate.

There's a fine line between drag queen glitter and cute art school glitter. Both are great in their own right - but for the latter - think making crimbo cards and you accidentally 'happen' to smear a little glitter here and there on your eyelids. I personally like it when it's a bit disheveled and not too perfect, especially if a little drops underneath the eyes. Like a fallen angel. Cute!

MAC reflects blackened red: A dark burgundy glitter, making it very chic and so dramatic when used all over lid, or in the corners of the eye. Go goth and team with black liner and burgundy lips.
MAC reflects antique gold: Such an amazing product, very rock n roll, team with messy textured hair, nude lip colour and lashings of black eye make-up.
MAC pigment old gold: Pretty pigment, works well with greens and reds as a highlight, maybe not on its own though (sort of a weird greeny/gold colour)
