    I think this is a good quality eyeshadow worthy of 4 lipsters, but this color did NOT work for me. It is a pretty, slightly frosty, silver; but this does not seem to work with my skin coloring. I...

    Although i'm a MAC addict, i wasnt too fond of this shade. I have a slight grey undertone to my skin, and this e/s made me look very ashy. Thankfully, after applying eyeliner and mascara it looked...

    Love this! Use as lid-only but really build-it-up on crease. When I have the thought I would line this over black eyeliner.

    This is one of my all time favourites. Its a kind of steely silvery grey, it doesn't have sparkles but is a sheeny colour but highly pigmented. I regularly wear this to work and it lasts all day...

    This shadow really brings out the greyish blue hues in my hazel green eyes. I have different eyes so I am not sure if this will work for everyone. If you have light eyes like me, though, you should...

    One of my favorite silvers, it looks great blended with pinks, although sometimes pairing it with an equally shimmery shadow is overkill. I read below that someone's Electa had crumbled and mine...

    Sort of a mid-tone silver with a touch of frost. I like this shadow for a smokey eye with Black Tied, but in my opinion would be great if it was more metallic with more sparkles. But if you're...

    I love using this as my base and highlighter. It's a "muted silver with icy metallic shimmer" according to the MAC web site and it's just that. Comes out light against my medium yellow/olive skin...

    This shadow looks really nice, very shimmery and colorful. I think it'd look best (on me) as a little highlighter for another color. It does tend to crease more than my Clinique eyeshadow, so I'm...

    Icy silver, reminds me of Stila Twilight but not as blue. Really pretty with a variety of cool toned colors. I use this most for a slivery black eye that surprisingly looks really great with the...

    Pretty silver shade with a hint of shimmer. It's very festive and looks fantastic.

    Electra is great, but for some reason it is just too pale, shimmery and frosty for me. I originally bought it as a highlighter, but I quickly found that it is too strong a color to use often. I...
