I agree. As the finish of HS is so matte, it looks rather flat on the face, thus emphasizing imperfections, fine lines and/or dry patches, but a ton of moisturizer followed by a ton of primer will help. Those with oily skins might like it too.
Thanks.

The red shadow looks really dissapointing, I guess Gosh Effect powder in Fox will remain my go-to red shadow.. Cant find any pictures of the actual product and im too lazy to go up and take a new one, but its such a nice one. Dunno if they even make them anymore.

Not bad for folks he might be afraid of red. *shrugs*

I think it's a more wearable. However I do agree MAC shouldn't have described it as "true matte red."

That is beautiful! I don't think I could pull that off though.

The beige shadow is really beautiful. I sure hadn't been expecting to buy it, but I did. It does have some larger sized sparkles in it, so that's something to be aware of, but the base is not that sort of frosty effect that shows up all your lid texture. Instead, it's rather velvety and smoothes over my lid crepe really well, so it's flattering and enhancing. It reminds me of Aurora pigment (one of my all time favorites), but with less warm, yellower undertone and more of a cool and soft pink undertone - it's still very much a beige neutral, not a pink. It's less frosty than Aurora (which is more sheen than frost anyways), but there is sheen to it, just very subtle. Could easily be worn on the brow bone without looking too flashy, but also nice and smooth enough for the whole lid. Very pretty and I usually do not buy these beige neutrals because I have plenty of Aurora and just use that since it's perfect. This one will get even more use, since hey - it's in a pan…makes life easier, plus even nicer texture. It's a winner, especially if you love Aurora, or wish Aurora was a little bit cooler-toned. There are large sparkles here and there, though, so don't over-apply or over blend or I could see them falling out. I did wear it all day the other day, but I also had a really glittery MES on too, so I can't be sure of how much or how little fallout there was. If it's equal to Guilty Morsel (which is another lustre finish shadow I adore), it won't be a big deal.
this sounds divine

How do you like it? Is it super pigmented?
I love Sugarpill Love+. I do wear it with a base but it is nicely pigmented and does blend alright. I actually prefer their $(@&#*($( or whatever symbols that one is actually called haha but it is a shimmer. I feel it might blend a touch better than Love+. But if you want a true, matte red you can't beat Love+. I've even used it as a blush for costume looks... haha.

I want to steal this look for the 4th of July. It is beautiful but I feel like I couldn't pull it off on a random Tuesday. I love it on you though!

Originally I wanted TT but lately I haven't been too crazy about corals. They pull orange on me and I'm not sure if I like it.

Haute might not be a true red but I'm enjoying this version more in some ways, being a bit more subtle Ive been able to wear it everywhere. I have some red shadows I bought in England which are more RED but harder to wear daily.

I don't think I'd like this red e/s, but am still sad I missed out on UD Gash. I wish MAC would make something similar.
