MAC’s Gilded Green pigment

One cool color included amongst all the other warm pigments in the Thrillseekers Warm Pigment kit. I'm not sure why they included this one here, but it's kind of nice that they did.

The pigment has the in-vial balling that you usually see with MAC metallics or shimmers. This color is more of a hard-pearl finish. The color payoff is good, and coverage is fairly even. It's a slightly softer green that doesn't have seafoam tones or blue undertones - it's just a nice, neutral medium green.

Photos that show how the product actually performs...! See how I create my swatches

A montage of three images: top left, close-up of the eyeshadow in the pot; top right, the eyeshadow mixed with water and applied to bare skin; bottom left, the eyeshadow applied dry over primer.

Applying the MAC metallic or frost pigments dry is usually a little bit of a challenge. They don't apply evenly if you put some on your brush and sweep it across. Pat or lightly stipple (lightly!! This is right over your eyeball, after all) for best coverage and application.
