Golden Rinse

MAC Golden Rinse Extra Dimension Bronzer ($34.00 for 0.31 oz.) is a soft, light-medium rosy brown with warm undertones and a luminous sheen. It had semi-opaque, buildable pigmentation paired with a dense, firmer texture that was thin and a little dry in feel. It wasn’t as yielding compared to other Extra Dimension formulas, which have a similar firmness to the touch but typically pickup product just fine with the usual slew of brushes. I felt I had to push and lightly jab at the surface to get the product loosened from the surface. I didn’t have any issues diffusing or blending out the edges, and the color stayed on well for eight hours (shy of the 10 hours promised).

Ugh! Another disaster collection! I am scared because I am a MAC fanatic and they have re formulated most of their eye shadows and face powders, I was told. If these last collections are what is to come with new formulas I am done. They can’t increase prices for bad quality.

Medium, Olive, neutral undertones. Combination skin.

The actual hue that this has to it really does have a sunkissed, just went to the beach, type of look! It may be a slight pain to pick it up on the brush, but this is one I’m looking forward to testing out on my arm in-store just to see whether I still love it once I take a brush to it.

I noticed the day you posted Baiana Bronze you also had matte bronze but removed it. Was there a glitch? They released this collection today so I was just trying to get all the info I could as a collector to see if it was worth it or Norma.
