My HG highlighter. So smooth and silky. No chunks of glitter, just a reflective sheen that looks very natural while really highlighting. Stays put all day. I love the slightly yellowish tone, it looks so much more flattering on my skin/eye combination than highlighters with a pink tone. The yellow tone also beautifully complements the taupey and bronzy colours I love to wear.

I don't love this as much as I hoped I would. The texture is awful to work with imo very gritty like others have mentioned. I wanted to use it as a brow highlight for the day but it's SO obvious. Just way to frosty for me. It does look beautiful as an inner eye highlight though!! It works perfectly for that. I will be keeping this because I like to wear it at night as a brow highlight and it really is the perfect e/s for inner eye highlight. Wouldn't buy again because I doubt I'll go through this very quickly.

Love this highlighter, especially for inner tear duct. Would definitely repurchase.

This is a pale gold with fine shimmers. It is very blendable and buildable. The color has quite a rich pigment. This shadow, as I've noticed from many other Mac shadows, stays in place all night. It does not melt off or transfer. No judging! But I have even slept in my makeup and can always count on my Mac shadows to look just as gorgeous as when I first applied it. I love to use this on the inner corner of my eyes.

I bought this eyeshadow colour to use as a highlight for the brows. Its a nice colour but very frosty. I wouldnt recommend this for day to day use (better of with something less frosty) but it would work on your inner eye corner or when creating a really dramatic eye look. I like using benefits high beam now to higlight brows.

Too yellowy and frosty for me. It didn't blend well either which surprised me since I love MAC eyeshadows. This is only the 2nd shade I disliked overall. I tried it as a cheekbone highlight but it just didn't blend well and again- way too frosty. I like frost finishes but this was just a gritty frost like others have said. I wouldn't repurchase it.

It's a nice neutral light golden colour, but I don't really like the texture of this. I bought this to use a s a highlighter, but I don't like the gritty look it gives. I would say that this is more glittery (super-frost) and gritty than the other frosts I own. I can actually use this an all over lid colour since I'm so fair, but this one is still quite disappointing to me... I think Dazzle Light, that I also have, is more pigmented and applies smoother than this (even though that isn't my favourite choice either). Nylon is more on the yellow side, while Dazzle Light is neutral. Even though DL looks a little bit darker in the pan, it's better at highlighting, because it shows up better (= lighter) - Nylon requires more effort to show up.
For a golden highlight colour you can also try the Mary-Lou Manizer. It's a big face highlighter with really fine shimmer. You get something 10 times bigger than a MAC shadow for only twice the price. BUT: the colour leans towards yellow.

Nylon. Frost (Super-frost I would say). Striking golden-white color. Neutral toned. Excellent highlighter.
I was kind of hoping that Nylon would work as an all-over-lid color for a neutral-toned golden look, but it's too frosty for that. I will try that again in the summer when my skin is much darker and see how it goes.

This color makes an awesome highlight for underneath the brow or the inner corners of the eyes. Also may work as a cheek highlight. Kind of reminds me of gold dusk pigment but more white.

Nylon was my first ever MAC eyeshadow and still one i always seem to reach for. I don't really like it that much on the brow bone, i think it's true calling is in the inner corners of the eyes. It just POPS i love to just use it for that purpose. Highly recommend Nylon! <3 continued >>

I wanted something to brighten my inner rim and since I'm yellow toned I figured Nylon's golden tone would be great. It's very frosty and is really pigmented but I can't stand how gritty and not soft and blendable this color is. I wish it would be as creamy as Ricepaper. I occasionally reach for this but I would not repurchase.

My gav highlighter from MAC. It's great for eyes and cheekbones. It's a frosted vanilla shade with yellow undertones. It's very pretty and lasts all day. I love how it makes my eyebrows look extra defined when I wear it

This is the first and only MAC product I own. I love it! I use it more as a highlighter than an eyeshadow. It's perfect for my warm skin tone. I can use it on my browbone, inner corners, and even as a face highlighter. It just gives a lovely off-white pale yellow, buttery cream sheen. It's not overly sparkly or shiny. Looks good in pretty much any lighting.

Nylon was one of the first MAC shadows I bought and it's still one of the best. It's a lovely golden-y frost, not a stark white, and as such it makes a beautiful base and highlight. I like this shadow alone or as an accent colour. It's velvety and has great coverage, and for me the pan of shadow has lasted forever. One of my favourites I own.

This shadow is so gorgeous because it's not just a stark white frost, it's most definitely a warm golden white. So pretty in the inner corner or inner third of the lid. Use it everyday and will purchase when I run out!

This is an amayzingly versatile highlighter/base/pearly base/ANYTHING shadow. Pair it with any color and you would get a smashing combo (bitter, woodwinked, satin taupe, electric eel, expensive pink...ANYTHING!). Simply gorgeous, creamy, pigmented, finely milled, provides a great natural looking sheen. I even use this as cheek highlighter sometimes, mixing with a cream.

Finally I've found an opponent to MAC Shroom! I've used Shroom as a face highlighter for so long, and even though I absolutely love it I've wanted something less champagne and more pure gold. And there was Nylon! How could I have missed it?
With my ultra fair skin (N5-N10) most highlighters leave a trace of colour on the face, and not just a tinted sheen if you know what I mean. Basically - they're all too dark. Nylon is the perfect whitened gold for us pale girls with a strong love for intense cheekbone highlighters.
Here's a picture of me wearing it.

I got thisfor an actual look I was going for that I needed this coor for. And normally I would not buy it, but now I love it!! It worked perfectly for what I got it for but it's now one of my favorite eye shadows. It's great to just add a little bit of shimmer on your lid, but also works great as a under your brow highlighter or just to put shome shimmer on the inner corners of your eyes! This will be one I'll keep using for years to come!!
