Truth: when I take out the new MAC additional dimension Eye shadows ($20; offered now in 10 shades), I hum the Twilight zone style tune to myself, since these new cream/powder/liquid hybrids take me on a journey with area as well as time. A journey to one more dimension. One full of blinding shine. as well as pigment for days! as well as blending that even lazy people can handle, LOL!
MAC states they utilized a new innovation on this new line of shadows that combines the very best of three worlds — cream, liquid as well as powder. The shadows are developed to provide the smoothness of a cream, the blend-ability of a liquid as well as the wear as well as simplicity of a powder.

I like ’em. They’re truly pigmented as well as very shimmery, as well as finest of all, so simple to blend.
If you’ve been wanting to try much more challenging eye looks with several shades however get tripped up by blending, the additional dimensions can make producing those shifts in colors a whole great deal easier. There’s practically a wetness to the colors, as well as for me, they seem much quicker as well as simpler to blend than conventional eyeshadows.
The other day I used contemporary Pewter around my lids, young Venus in the inner corners as well as Dark attempt along my upper lash lines, as well as I barely had to exert any type of effort at all! — just a few swipes to blend the colors together seamlessly. Plus, since the shadows latch on to lids (well, at first at least, however much more on that in a few), I didn’t observe any type of fallout.

If I were starring on some strange truth TV show with a difficulty in which I had to get up at 3 in the morning as well as execute a completely blended, dynamic eye with six eyeshadows in less than 10 minutes, I’d get the additional dimension Eye shadows (my only hope of escaping elimination!). If after that they asked me to operate heavy machinery, then I’d be screwed. since who doesn’t belong behind the wheel at the witching hour?

The next time I have to be somewhere obscenely early in the morning, I’m using olive contemporary Pewter, my preferred shade from the launch. I feel like it turns on a light behind my eyes.
Of course, unlike Cee-Lo’s cat, these aren’t Purr-fect (what is?). They have a quite restricted wear time on my combination dry/oily skin.
I evaluated the additional dimensions with as well as without my preferred NARS Pro-Prime Smudge proof Eyeshadow Base, as well as without the primer, they vanish in about four hours — like straight-up gone into eyeshadow heaven. other than a bit left in my fine lines as well as creases, they’re gone.
When I wear them with primer, however, I do get much better wear time of about six hours.
I’d believed these would carry out a great deal like the Metal-Xs, a batch of cream shadows that MAC released a few months ago. The Metal-Xs seem to benefit from the utilize of a primer as well as a powder shadow, however in a great deal of methods I believe the additional dimension Eye shadows are an improvement, especially when it concerns wear time.
In a ideal world, I’d be able to apply them on top of a primer, as well as they’d stay put without fading for a solid eight hours.
Almost, however not quite. I like the colors, shine, lack of after effects as well as exactly how simple they are to blend, however they’d be even much more amazing if they lasted a bit longer.
