<em>MAC Defiance Eyeshadow Quad</em></p>
<h2>MAC Wonder Woman:  Defiance Eyeshadow Quad</h2>
<p><span style="color: #9d4b7b;"><strong>MAC DEFIANCE EYESHADOW QUAD</strong></span> ($40.00 for 0.20 oz.) includes four shades of eyeshadow:  <span style="color: #9d4b7b;"><strong>Defiance</strong></span> (iridescent white pink), <span style="color: #9d4b7b;"><strong>Paradise Island</strong></span> (soft warm pink), <span style="color: #9d4b7b;"><strong>Star Studded</strong></span> (mid-tone violet pink), and <span style="color: #9d4b7b;"><strong>Real Drama</strong></span> (dark burgundy with pink pearl).</p>
<ul>
<li><span style="color: #9d4b7b;"><strong>Defiance</strong></span> is a pale pink-tinged white with a iridescent pink flash.   This is a veluxe pearl finish.  It reminded me of Vanilla pigment.</li>
<li><span style="color: #9d4b7b;"><strong>Paradise Island</strong></span> is a pale pink with subtle cool undertones. This is a satin finish.  It&#8217;s like a satin finish Pink Freeze.  It was a touch sheer.</li>
<li><span style="color: #9d4b7b;"><strong>Star Studded</strong></span> is a berried plum with soft gold micro-shimmer. This is a satin finish.  This shade was noticeably sheer.  Fig. 1 would be the closest permanent dupe.</li>
<li><span style="color: #9d4b7b;"><strong>Real Drama</strong></span> is a burgundy-brown with soft shimmer.  This is a satin finish.  It was a little sheer, though not as sheer as Star Studded.  It is a little browner than Sketch.</li>
</ul>
<p>I wasn&#8217;t impressed with this quad&#8211;three of the four shades were less-than-pigmented, with Star Studded being rather sheer.  The texture wasn&#8217;t as soft or as silky as I&#8217;d like to see in an eyeshadow.  I only liked Defiance, wihch had a beautiful, smooth application and even color pay off.</p>

<blockquote><p><span style="font-size: 14px; color: #9d4b7b;"><strong>final thoughts:</strong></span> This will complement cooler, paler skin tones.  I don&#8217;t think it&#8217;s worth grabbing, because the pay off of the majority of the shades is really underwhelming.</p>
