 Mac Evening Grey Extra Dimension Eyeshadow (Glamour Daze Collection)

If i didnt know better, i would think Evening Grey was the fourth novel in the Fifty Shades of Grey Trilogy!!! Speaking of which, have you  read the series  Mac Evening Grey Extra Dimension Eyeshadow (Glamour Daze Collection) ?  Oh Come On..i know you have, atleast one ! I actually read it in train journeys on my honeymoon, and while the sheer doormat-ness and pre-historic thoughts of the female protaginst was way too annoying for me to finish the entire book…i was definitely curious to read more of what they described as ‘Mommy Porn’ . (Needless to say boy not happy about me reading such novels on our HM- but what else are you supposed to do on a train? Actually….Im sure EL James would think of a couple of things a couple can do on a train but lets not go there!). Anyway, coming back to whats important- Mac Evening Grey Eyeshadow which is part of the limited edition Glamour Daze Collection. Doesnt it look like a work of art? Its gorgeous to look at !!!!

Evening Grey, is more like a  darkish  steel  grey , and is perfect if you want a smokey eye with a kick. Just a pop of this on the middle of a smoked out lid and you are set for a gorgeous night out !! Greys can look ashy on warm skintones, but Evening Grey has a warmer almost brown undertone so it totally works on all skintones. I also like using silver eyeshadow for my inner corners a lot of times but this is a darker grey, isnt a bright white so its not that effective in that area . Extra DImension eyeshadows can be used wet and dry and this delivers on both fronts!

I thought this was really well pigmented, both wet and dry.The texture was really soft – almost melting on your fingertips when you touch it! I dont know theyr not quite the same texture as powder eyeshadows- it seems like a mix of almost like a powder and a gel kind of eyeshadow.This wears long, even without a primer and should be up for that date night you have planned and then some  Mac Evening Grey Extra Dimension Eyeshadow (Glamour Daze Collection)

Verdict: A

Price: Rs 1100/- (Not sure)

Recommendation: Mac Extra Dimension Eyeshadow in Evening Grey, was very pigmented, extremely soft and blendable and really a pleasure to pretty up with !  The texture is not really like a powder shadow , its more buttery and can be used wet or dry.Evening grey is a beautiful darkish silver grey that is great for a smokey eye!

What ? You want an eye makeup look? Tutorial? Yes, trying to get one of those in i promise!!!

I have not read any of them :-O till now… Shade is so pretty and rather a silver-grey. I really like this kind of shades.. Wear it with black dress or traditional wear with stone ad silver work. I am just counting number of dresses it will look good.. Nice buy :-)

A tutorial would be very nice, and never got around to reading the series yet.. it was so hyped up that I lost interest even before getting my hands on it.

Ya I was thinking of reading it too.. but got a big pile of books at home that I still need to finish.

About the eyeshadow, I always wonder whether ths shade of grey will look too dramatic. and yes waiting for a tutorial from you :)

Can you also suggest what eye shadow primer should I buy? and is it really needed to put one?
