Swatch of the Day: MAC White Eyeshadows

Friday, October 30th, 2009

The swatch of the day is…

My 3 white MAC eyeshadows!  These are the ones I consider “true” whites that don’t have any overtly gold/pink/whatever tones to them.  Those I include in my highlights palette, and not my white palette.

MAC Crystal Avalanche Eyeshadow
Description: White with reflects (Veluxe Pearl)

MAC Chill Eyeshadow
Description: Luminous satin, cool white (Discontinued)

MAC Gesso Eyeshadow
Description: Vivid white (Matte)

Swatching procedure: My skin tone is roughly a MAC NW20. Swatches are done over MAC Painterly paint pot to provide a base, therefore results may appear different on bare skin.

Photos are taken in my bathroom which has “Natural Light” bulbs to mimic natural daylight. No flash is used.
