Must Have Eyeshadow - MAC Satin Taupe

Hi everyone :) hope you're all doing well!

Today im posting on a new eyeshadow of mine... MAC Satin Taupe. I know i know, i said i'd hold back on purchasing makeup for awhile, but after receiving the other MAC eyeshadows for my birthday, i kept getting recommendations from fellow bloggers that satin taupe was THE shadow to have! with all that hype and rave, i had to go check out for myself what was so good.. and seriously, i dont know why i didnt get this earlier! its soooo gorgeous :)

but enough talking, lets look at pictures! *yay*

in the pan - natural lighting

in the pan - with flash

and of course, swatches :)

and a few comparison pictures alongside woodwinked :)

and so you can get the full idea on this product, heres the regular swatch and then one blended out :)

I really really do love this color! its so multi-dimensional ! its a great mixture of shimmery silver, purple and brown and taupe and together, its the perfect soft smokey shade :) not too dark and not too light :)

you can definitely use this all over the lid and blend out the crease to get a gorgeous soft smokey look, but for everyday looks, i actually really like using this to line my eyes! :) because i dont normally wear a heavy eye look (especially when i have school) this shimmery purpleish brown adds just the right amount of color.

i'll try to get a picture up one day of both looks (everyday as a liner and in outer v, and smokey) to show you guys how gorgeous it really is!!

-----------------------------------------

anyways, you mightve noticed i purchased this in the pan form.. i was actually looking for the refill pan since i could just pop it into my palettes at home, but they didnt have any left :( oh well, i ended up depotting it when i got home and now it sits in my little MAC quad palette ^^

and when i feel like switching around the colors, i can just pop the pan right back into the container and keep it safe until i want to switch it again :) hehe

oh, and i also stuck the sticker on the inside cover of the quad, even though im pretty sure i can remember all 5 names by heart :)

and thats it for today! i'm a bit behind on getting EOTD and FOTD pictures to really show you how these products look as im always in a rush for school :( and when i get home at night, i look like a huge mess so no pictures for me thanks! haha but i promise, soon :) lol

anyways, hope you're all doing well! take care!! :D
