:nods: these and MES are the only mac shadows that won't ruin by using them wet.
Like audrey said, since they aren't encased in a pan, but rather sits on top of a tile, if it breaks (as they also easily pop free from the tile like MES), it's gonna go all over!
Try zestful on the center lid with plumage on the inner and outer corner and bottom lashline, and saddle in the crease. Or switch out plumage for brun or embark. If you want a more wearable daytime look use the same colours as above and do zestful all iver the lid with the darker colour just in the outer corner.
Ok thanks! Def Def pulls pink when it's on? Both the highlight and darker color? How would you describe it? Sorry for so many questions! =D
I posted swatches and comparison pics earlier in the thread. If you click on the pictures section on the right side of this thread you'll be able to look at all the individual pics and click back to the posts with the comments.

TY for those gorgeous swatches. What was the black base you used? Would Blackground PP work you think??? I get annoyed dealing with loose powders, even MAC pigments, but I love the versatility and duochromenicityThe aura micas work best over deep bases. I done't even have to be black which is why they look stellar on deeper skin tones.
Hi to those who are thinking of depotting. I was curious myself about doing that this afternoon, so I googled and found a website with a photo tutorial of how to depot them. It seems that you will need to the usual tools (empty 26mm metal pan, alcohol) for pressing pigments.
Thank you
. I'm really loving this collection
I'd hoped to do just that and place in the blush inserts that fit in the new duo palettes. However, last night, I popped a mineralized blush with the black casing still on, out of it's exterior case and even with the thicker palettes, they still don't fit. So I ordered, just this morning, a domed Z Palette and plan to place a magnetic sheet on the bottom, then pop the black casings out of their exterior cases, place magnets on the plastic bottoms and put those in the Z Palette. Hopefully, keeping them in the little plastic casing on them will be enough support to keep the terra cotta interior stable.
Z palettes are already magnetized, so you should be able to skip the magnetic sheet. The magnets that come with the z-palettes are pretty strong too. Let us know if they fit with the plastic casing still on.
i know the pic is low quality since i used my phone in my room to take this pic lol but wanted u guys to see Flaming Chic on me. I finally got it to show up. I had to scrub like i was cleaning something with one of my brushes until i saw the 'top layer' was starting to wear off lol and thats when it started to show up on my skin
ETA: i also had put macs face and body on my cheeks before putting on the blush
I've never used a Z Palette . . .are they magnetized plastic like the MAC palettes or magnetic metal on the bottom? My pots don't stay put in the duo palettes without a magnetic sheet added . . .I'm thinking with the added weight of the plastic and terra cotta, extra magnet strength may be needed. I'll try t without first and report back.
