Eyeshadow Finishes Pt 1 (MAC)

Here's an overview of the different Eyeshadows that MAC carries. Just a video to give you guys an idea on what to look for when buying eyeshadows. The different finishes are listed below. To find out the color description and finish of each shadow simple mouse-hover over the color at the MAC website and a pop box will appear displaying the info. EnJoy!

hey! Thanks for posting these videos they really helped me!

I know this is a little late, but there's one question I have; what's the difference between matte² and matte?

[EnKoreMakeup]

Matte2 is more flat matte. From what I gathered, they name it that because the only way to describe it is double the matte than a regular matte.

Hi Koren. Firstly thank you so much for the video! Very informative. Secondly, may I ask, do you have any difficulty applying the lustre shadows? Whenever I apply them they never transfer from brushes to my lids, no matter how much I pick up -_- Have you any way t combat this?

Thanks again!

[EnKoreMakeup]

hey vanity - what kind of brush are you using?

[WagnerDanny]

Thank you for making this, omg you have no idea how helpful this is because I was so confused lol.

[summergeeklove]

that is so incredibly rude!

enkore is a great guy and helps alot of people out.

if you cant stop talking with your monkey mouth then leave.

Is it absolutely important to apply a mixing medium or a cream eyeshadow before these eyeshadows to help them stick better? 'Cause I've bought many M.A.C. brushes, unfortunately I find that some colors are easier to apply with a sponge.
