Glamourize Me

MAC Glamourize Me Cream Colour Shadow Palette ($40.00 for 0.21 oz.) features six Cream Colour Shadows. The formula is supposed to have “medium, buildable colour” that is long-wearing, water-resistant, and non-drying. They felt a lot like the Cream Colour Base formula to me: soft, very emollient, and almost “greasy” in a way. They go on thin and have a slight tackiness, and they are hard to build-up or use more than one or two shades at a time, as they look uneven and patchy with more than that. The wear ranged from a few hours to six hours, but a couple of shades creased soon after applying but did not worsen for a few hours later (think of it as “initial creasing” because they don’t really dry down). I think the formula is most suited used all over the lid as a wash or as a lightly tacky, wet base for powder eyeshadows.

Glowing

Glowing is a medium gold with warm, orange undertones and a pearly sheen. It had medium coverage, though it wasn’t buildable beyond semi-opaque intensity. The texture was thin, lightly tacky, and never fully dried down on the lid–it looked dewy at all times, which was quite pretty except for the immediate creasing that was apparent. There was some migration and movement within four hours of wear.

Dynamic

Dynamic is a dark, coppery bronze with warm undertones and a pearly sheen. It had semi-opaque, buildable coverage with a dewy, thin, emollient consistency that blended out decently but was best applied with fingertips (brushes seemed to make it appear patchy). This shade had subtle creasing within five hours of wear.

Enigmatic

Enigmatic is a muted, medium-dark plum with subtle, warm undertones and a soft, pearl sheen. It had semi-sheer, buildable coverage (up to semi-opaque) with a lightly tacky, emollient consistency that was thinner. I found this one harder to use, as it always looked patchy and uneven, as if the deeper pigment in the base did not blend out well. It lasted for six hours before creasing on me.

Alluring

Alluring is a dark purple with warmer undertones and a satin sheen. The consistency was thin but less tacky than the other shades, so it seemed to sit better on the skin initially, though I still had issues with the underlying pigmentation (the darker purple) looking patchy when blended–even as a sheer wash.

Daring

Daring is a blackened navy blue with cool undertones and a satin finish. It had semi-sheer coverage that did not build up beyond that. The consistency was lightly tacky, emollient, and looked dewy on the skin. It was difficult to blend out this shade without the pigment looking patchy on my lid. The color started to crease after five hours of wear.

Rebellious

Rebellious is a dark brown with subtle, warm undertones and a satin shimmer. It had semi-sheer coverage that did not build or layer well for me, as the dewier, more emollient texture just seemed to make it slide around even more if I tried adding product. The color did not blend out evenly, and the color looked much like it did on my arm as it did on my eye–lined, a little patchy, and uneven. The eyeshadow creased within three and a half hours of wear.
