Lou's Reviews : MAC Magically Cool Liquid Powder
Aloha Bloggerinos,
Ages and aggeess ago, I was very kindly sent a yoke of bits from Mac and since I've now had a respectable number of time to afford them a whirl, I thought I'd say you my findings. I was sent the Magically Cool Liquid Powder in Cajun(from the Venomous Villains collection) and a mascara which we'll no doubt talk about another time.
What MAC have to say about it:
"A silky, feather-light powder, formulated with 70% water, dusts on to the struggle as a cooling mist to set and raise the spirit of any foundation. Beyond sheer: light-reflecting and translucent. A near invisible way to add light and a soft radiant glow to the skin. Limited edition."
I have ever been a pressed powder bronzer kind of a gal, so when I open this, I was a little worried. I incline to get a full mass of loose pigment products and having a white carpet, this is a problemo. There's no way around it other than a careful hand and a lot of tapping-off-excess-ness really- any other suggestions, I'll be happy to see them!
I give this bronzer with my (fake- I was swizzed on Ebay dagnamit) MAC due fibre brush in a swirly motion to the apples of my cheek, temples and a smidge on my forhead and nose. When you first apply it, it actually does feel cool in temperature, almost wet even, which was rather a surprise. I've not get across a production which has that effect. I believe this coolness will feel amazing in the summer- what a winner.
The rule is VERY concentrated, so a teensy weensy bit goes a reeeaaallllyy long way. This comes as some comfort for the fact that it retails at 23.00, which I trust to be a bit steep for a bronzer that wouldn't go as farsighted as this baby.
This incrediably finely milledbronzer is a medium-dark brown with a very, very slight touch of shimmer. It's a tiny bit too morose for my pale complexion but if used sparingly and buffed in well, it looks nicely natural. It has a decent staying time and is comfortable to remove- bonus.
This isn't a product I use everyday because of the mess, but it's one I get out for nights out and special occasions. I trust that come summer, I can do much better use of this.
Have you tried or would you try this? What do you think?
Toodlepip!
