I’ve compared the shape of MAC glitter to the cut of Lit Cosmetics & NYX under magnification, & they all have the same hexagonal shape which is the main difference between cosmetic grade glitter and crafting glitter. Many glitters the FDA classifies as “unsafe” are approved in other countries. We don't want to setĮxpectations and then disappoint readers as even products that are swatched don't always end upīeing reviewed due to time constraints and changes in priorities! Thank you for understanding! Comments on this post are closed.Īccording to the FDA, no glitter is approved as “eye safe” (technically), & they’re rather wishy-washy about glitter being safe in any cosmetics, really. We appreciate enthusiasm for new releases but ask readers to please hold questions regarding if/whenĪ review will be posted as we can't commit to or guarantee product reviews.
Will typically be removed after errors are fixed (unless a response is needed). Comments alerting us to typos or small errors in the post are appreciated (!) but Please help us streamline the comments' section and be more efficient: double-check the post aboveįor more basic information like pricing, availability, and so on to make sure your question wasn'tĪnswered already. Off-topic question, or need technical support, please Please keep discussion on-topic, and if you have general feedback, a product review request, an Discussion and debate are highly encouraged but we expect community members to Note, there are no ratings for glitter because it’s not a product that really fits the criteria we use in The Glossover at this time.
#MAC PIGMENT SETS GLITTER FULL#
Again, I’m sure it is something dupable by brands with full glitter ranges (Lit, OCC, etc.), but I don’t have any specific to call out.
#MAC PIGMENT SETS GLITTER SKIN#
I noticed this one was a total pain to remove, too it was best removed by running water all over the skin as makeup removing wipes and cotton pads just smeared it everywhere. I’d love to hear how you guys would use this one, because it really doesn’t have a lot of reflective qualities, so it doesn’t dance in the light like real glitter. See comparison swatches.īlack is described as a “sparkly chunky black.” It’s small-to-medium black glitter.
Guerlain Cuivre Ora (LE, $35.00) is slightly browner. Sugarpill Asteria (LE, $12.00) is more orange. Sleek MakeUP Sunset #9 (P, $9.99) is similar. The texture is very chunky, and it needs to be pressed/smoothed into the skin, which is why it tends to work best when applied with a damp brush as it helps to smooth the consistency out.
See comparison swatches.Ĭopper Sparkle is described as “super frosty copper flecks.” It’s a vibrant, orange-copper with a frosted, metallic finish. MAC Tempting (P, $15.00) is not as warm-toned. MAC Cognac (LE, $15.00) is lighter, more golden. Edward Bess Cosmic Bliss #4 (P, $30.00) is less warm-toned. Urban Decay Radar (LE, $18.00) is darker. Urban Decay Ambush (LE, $18.00) is less golden. Chanel Initiation (827) (LE, $36.00) is more glittery, cream product. It wore well for almost eight hours before showing signs of fading. Applied dry, it was more frosted, and then applied with a damp brush, it was more metallic, but both applications had full, opaque color. Museum Bronze is described as a “rich taupe with gold pearl.” It’s a medium-dark brown with warm, golden frost and a frosted, metallic finish. I don’t have another glitter in this color that I can recall, though I’m sure it is something dupable by brands with full glitter ranges (Lit, OCC, etc.). Gold is described as a “sparkly chunky gold.” It contains small, gold glitter particles that go between champagne gold and a more coppery gold. NARS Nepal (P, $24.00) is a touch darker. NARS Jezebel (P) is similar, MAC Phresh Out #3 (LE) is more frosted. This shade is part of the permanent range. It wore well for seven and a half hours before showing some signs of fading and very, very faint creasing. Apply dry, it’s a very sheer wash of color with some sheen, and then when applied with a damp brush, it’s opaque, warmer, and darker. Naked is described as a “flesh beige with pearl.” It’s a pale, peachy-beige with a soft, champagne shimmer-sheen. I applied the glitters over Fyrinnae’s Pixie Epoxy for swatches. I wish MAC would test or use a grade of glitter that was eye safe, especially if they’re going to include them in consumer kits like this. These are loose glitters, so you will need some sort of adhesive base or mix to have them stick to skin. You could try using the glitters in nail polish, in the hair, and on the body. None of MAC’s glitters are listed as eye safe, and these two glitters are listed as “not safe for the eye or lip area.” This set contains $37.80 worth of pigments and $39.20 worth of glitters for a total value of $77.00. of product, while each glitter vial contains 0.14 oz. MAC Nocturnals/Black & Gold Set ($32.50 for 0.55 oz.) contains three pigments and two glitters.
