FATHOMS DEEP MAC EXTRA DIMENSION EYESHADOW - SWATCHES AND REVIEW


MAC Fathoms Deep Extra Dimension eyeshadow is part of the Alluring Aquatics color collection. MAC describes it as a deep blue but it is a dark metallic plum eyeshadow with miniscule glitter flecks. There were six eyeshadows with this collection and I purchased two of them - Soul Serenade (link below for the review) and Fathoms Deep. They are currently priced at $19.50 each and contain .04 oz. of product. Unfortunately all six are sold out on the MAC website but I do know some of these are still available in store at several MAC counters (Belk or Nordstrom).

MAC has released their Extra Dimension eyeshadows previously but the formula, texture and pigmentation for these has quite improved from then. Fathoms Deep applies nicely but the color can look somewhat muddy if not applied in layers. Add to much and you will lose the beautiful deep plum color so take care with this one. It can be worn wet or dry and the pigmentation will still be amazing! These are really worth the money and the lasting power for Fathoms Deep when worn was about ten hours before I experienced some slight fading and creasing.

SOUL SERENADE MAC EXTRA DIMENSION EYESHADOW - SWATCHES AND REVIEW


MAC Soul Serenade Extra Dimension eyeshadow is part of the Alluring Aquatics color collection. It is a dark smokey taupe eyeshadow with hints of plum undertones and miniscule glitter flecks. There were six eyeshadows with this collection and I purchased two of them - Soul Serenade and Fathoms Deep (I'm reviewing it next). They are currently priced at $19.50 each and contain .04 oz. of product. Unfortunately all six are sold out on the MAC website but I do know some of these are still available in store at several MAC counters (Belk or Nordstrom). This isn't the first time MAC has released their Extra Dimension eyeshadows but I do know that the formula, texture and pigmentation for these has quite improved from previous launches. With Soul Serenade it can be worn wet or dry and the pigmentation will still be amazing! These are really worth the money and the lasting power for Soul Serenade was about ten to twelve hours. There was slight fading after ten hours and then slight creasing after twelve hours.





EGGPLANT-BLEND MAC STUDIO SCULPT SHADE AND LINE - SWATCHES AND REVIEW


MAC Eggplant-Blend is an all in one eye product - it shapes, sculpts and lines the eyes. It contains a creamy soft pink eyeshadow, a pale grey eyeshadow and a dirty plum eyeliner. There are eight of these to choose from, they are currently priced at $21.00 USD and they contain .06 oz. of product. Each eye product houses two eyeshadows and one matte eyeliner. They can be applied dry for a muted soft look or applied wet for a bolder vibrant look. This is a nice concept. The two eyeshadows seem to blend beautifully together and the eyeliner seems to compliment the overall eye look as well. The only complaint I have is when the eyeshadows are applied dry. I wish the eyeshadows had been more pigmented and easier to work with. When applied dry I experienced significant fading, the colors weren't as pigmented and the lasting power was about four to five hours. When applied wet the colors really stand out, application is effortless, and the lasting power when worn is about ten hours with no creasing or fading.
