Mac Charcoal brown eyeshadow review

Hello everyone!

Just a quick post today to tell you all about an eyeshadow I have been using religiously over the past few weeks. So I went to colchester a few weeks go as I had heard that a department store carries mac, the area I live in doesn't actually have a mac store and colchester isn't too far away so I was very excited! I really wanted to get an eyeshadow to fill in my eyebrows with and the lady who worked there suggested espresso, I tried this on and it was far too dark so she suggested 'Charcoal brown' which I think is a really good match.


Now I had heard some mixed reviews with mac matte eyeshadows, some people thought they were great where as others thought they were a little too hard to work with. From the photo above you can see that is has good pigmentation and I only had to swipe my finger across the eyehadow twice to get the colour payoff. So I have got on really well with this eyeshadow and it has become part of my everyday makeup routine. It's not only great for eyeshadow but really good for using in the crease to blend out eyeshadow (I do love a multi-use product!)

I would highly recommend this eyeshadow and definitely want to have a look at there other colours!
Thanks for reading!
