That’s the new MAC Magnetic nude extra dimension Eye shadow in Amorous Alloy on my lids, a natural Flirt on my brow bones and sweet heat in the inner corners
It’s cool, I’ll drive. I want you and your blending brush to relax.
Where are we going, you ask?
ANZEIGE
Well, it’s quite a journey. We’re going to a different dimension — an extra Dimension, if you will — where easy shimmer and smokey eyes rule.
No, it’s in our timezone, and we’re not even leaving Earth’s orbit (or going into cryo sleep). We can actually get there in my Mazda. All we have to do is meet at a MAC counter on December 26, because the inter-dimensional highway opens when the five extra dimension Eye shadows from the new MAC Magnetic Nudes collection debut that day.

Sorry in advance if my car is dirty… I don’t have plans to clean it. Also, please ignore the turntables in the backseat (it’s a long story).

Extra dimension Eye shadows from the left: A natural Flirt, sweet Heat, Platinum Love, Amorous Alloy and Silver Dawn
You might remember first seeing the extra dimension Eye shadows for spring 2012. The relatively new formula combines a cream, liquid and powder shadow in a single pan.
Additional eye makeup in this look: MAC Bamboo Eye shadow (lids), MAC Swiss chocolate Eye shadow (crease), MAC Teddy Eye Kohl (water lines and lower lash lines), Chanel Inimitable Mascara (lashes) and Covergirl Bombshell intensity liner (upper lash lines)
When these first came out, I had some trouble with the wear time, but things seem to have improved. Either MAC tweaked the formula…or a makeup miracle happened! — because they keep getting better and better with each new release (they’ve appeared in some limited edition collections). now with a primer, I get from 8-10 hours without any creasing or fading.
In essence, these are metallic eyeshadows with varying levels of coverage and shimmer. They’re super easy to blend, don’t suffer from fallout, last longer than The Godfather trilogy and look great on all skin types. On gals of all ages, from teens to more mature ladies, and all makeup skill levels (even beginners who’ve never picked up a makeup brush before), they just work great.
More MAC Magnetic nude on my cheeks and lips: that’s extra dimension blush in Autoerotique on the apples of my cheeks, and on my lips I’m wearing MAC close contact Lipstick topped with MAC hell Bound Lipglass
You could be a 13-year-old playing with makeup for the first time or a former beauty pageant gal in your 70s (like my glam granny!) or anyone in between — you don’t want to miss these, because the shimmer’s totally auf den Punkt. Shiny, but not super frosty, it absolutely refuses to loiter in my fine lines (THANK YOU!).
I generally tend to have better luck blending shimmery shadows than mattes (the shimmers are just easier to scoot around on my lids), and these shadows, in particular, blend with utter ease. Seriously, I just sweep, sweep, sweep with my 217, and I’m done. It cuts the time it takes to do a smokey eye in half.
A few notes on the five colors in the MAC Magnetic nude collection…
A natural Flirt extra dimension Eye Shadow, an iridescent light pink with a metallic finish
I think A natural Flirt just looks gorgeous as an all-over lid color or a brow highlight. The iridescent light pink glimmers on the skin like candle light. If you missed out on this shade during glamour Daze, now’s your chance to right that wrong!
Sweet heat extra dimension Eye Shadow, a soft peachy pink with a metallic finish
Pinkish peach sweet heat glistens in a similar fashion, but it’s slightly more pigmented, so you can lightly dust it all over your lids for a sheer glow, or really pack it on to up the intensity.
Amorous Alloy extra dimension Eye Shadow, a deep terracotta copper with a metallic finish
I’m unabashedly in love with Amorous Alloy, the pigmented coppery reddish brown, mostly ’cause I like wearing it with my current MAC obsessions, Swiss chocolate Eye shadow and Costa Riche Kohl. It also looks amaze-er-ring with bronzy browns like MAC Teddy Liner.
Silver Dawn extra dimension Eye Shadow, a dirty grey mauve with a metallic finish
As for purplish gray Silver Dawn? In a word: gorgeous, especially layered on top of It’s Physical Fluidline. I think it also works well with purplish taupes like MAC Shale or MAC Satin Taupe.
Platinum love extra dimension Eye Shadow, a bright clean silver with a metallic finish
The fifth member of this group, metallic silver Platinum Love, is probably the closest one here to a traditional frost. I’ll probably use it in moderation, like in the inner corners, because of its intense shine.
Really, I can’t think of anything I don’Die Liebe über diese Schatten – Nun, außer der Tatsache, dass ich immer noch ziemlich cranky über Mac bin, schrumpft die Pfannen auf 0,04 Unzen vom Original 0.07, während er den gleichen Preis aufrechterhält.
Was kann ich sagen? Ich kann einfach nicht lass sein.
Außerdem glaube ich, dass diese kühlen und warmen Töne ausgezeichnet sind. Unter den Tönen erhalten Sie ein breites Spektrum an Deckungen und eine Vielzahl von schimmernden Oberflächen und absolut Null-Drama, was auch immer, mit Antrag, Langlebigkeit oder Mischung.
