MAC Imaginary Pro Longwear Paint Pot ($22.00 for 0.17 oz.) is described as a "deep blue plum shimmer." It's a deepened, muted, navy blue with fine navy blue and violet pearl. It had semi-opaque color payoff with a lightly creamy consistency, but it is really dense in the pot. The denser texture made it less blendable on the skin; it was better as a defined area rather than used as a cream eyeshadow (so I preferred it as an eyeliner). The color lasted for twelve hours on me before starting fade (the formula has a stated wear time of 15 hours per MAC's site). Cle de Peau Serenity (Left) (PiP, ) is lighter (95% similar).
