Mineralize Skinifinish: New Vegas (Goldplay)
Overall 5
Price 4
Packaging 3
Buy again? YES

New Vegas is an awesome color. Icy gold, it makes fabulous highlighter, under brow highlighter( used wet) and highlight on center lower lip. I also use it wet all over the eye area for a light look and under the eye lightly dry as nice accent.

I like this one better than Shimpagne as it has a warmer feel to it and brings a nice glow. I managed to get two of these before they sold out. I like using it with Gold Deposit and Metal Rock.

If I did not have a 187 brush I would not use it on the face, though. That brush is essential for the Skinfinishes to look right.

Would you buy this product again? Yes but it's LE.

I love all of my MSF's and this one is no exception, it's a lovely gold shade with bronze veining and gives a lovely warm glow to the skin.
I whish MAC made MSF's part of the permanent line.

Another sheer one, but i think this looks better then the porcelain pink. this is a creme color with gold veining thru it. I use it over Metal Rock to lighten it up a bit. Also a nice highlighter for the eyes or cheekbones. I agree with colorqueen, you have to have a 187 brush to make the MSFs look right.

All MSFs have appallingly weak packaging that doesn't survive any time in a travelling MA kit, but that aside, New Vegas is a lovely buttery yellow MSF with mild gold veining. When applied with a blush brush to the cheekbones and temples and then polished smooth, it imparts a subtle highlight that is more pearly than metallic.

This product gives the same lovely glowing finish as the other Goldplay MSFs. I didn't care for the color on my skin. It started yellow, and seemed to get more intense in color after a few hours.

Would you buy this product again? If I could

This was the msf that I wanted most of all, and it was already sold out when I went to buy it. I was fortunate enough to pick it up here from my one of my favorite Specktrettes and I can't thank her enough. This is a creamy gold colour with amber veining and I love it. I have lots of pink undertones in my skin and when I wear this, it helps to disguise the pink. I use it on my cheeks, brows, forehead, and nose to highlight my face. I also use it to highlight cleavage I would happily repurchase if I could.

The colour of New Vegas actually looks like Gold Dusk pigment and the veining looks like a little Copper Sparkle pigment when you come to think of it. Lovely to look at in the pan but I can't really use it much except as an eyeshadow and a highlighter. When I use too much of this, it turns an unflattering yellow and makes my pores look really big. Pretty but it isn't all that useful.

While I think New Vegas gives the skin a nice cool gold shimmer it isn't anything special. Plenty of other brands have similar products out there. This wasn't a keeper for me.

Buy Again? i have 2, so i'm good for now

Creme golden color, a nice color for highligting. I also agree that you realy need a good brush like the 187 brush for the msfs to work for you.
