I have been so dissapointed by this. It is my first MAC shadow-I usually use Nars and Urban Decay-and it goes on horribly! It is absolutely the streakiest shadow I've ever used. I tried it with UD...

I have had Embark forever and love it! It's a pefect brown liner shadow with hints of auburn. I use this more as a liner than anything else but it does look great as a crease color. The color is...

I like the plum undertone - but overall a little too dark for me. I don't use it as an eyeliner because I realized after years of wearing liners, they were just making my eyes look smaller. This...

This is brand new to me, but I was really surprised by the consistency of MAC shadows. They really compare nicely to Chanel and I have been a Chanel fan forever. The staying power of this is very...

I went to MAC prepared to buy Mulch as a crease shade, when the MA steered me toward Embark. I'm glad he did! It's a gorgeous crease/liner shade, and do not let the color intimidate you. I can...

This shadow has been a staple for me for about 7 years. I use it mixed with water or Visine as an eyeliner, it is a beautiful matte black/brown and brings out my green/hazel eyes. It works under...

I really wanted to love this color and tried it with so many combinations, but the red in this shadow always looked horrible on my NC37-40 skin.

I loooove embark! GREAT depth maker! It goes with lots of colors and is great when you don't want to use Carbon as a depth maker. It's matte so doesn't interfere with the shimmery shadows....

I got this as part of the Holiday 2006 Warm Eyes palette. I'm a PPP, warm-toned, with green eyes, and this is such a perfect liner color for me. The reddish brown makes my green eyes pop, but...

Beautiful dark warm brown, it has reddish undertones which makes it really pretty. It's a matte so it's kinda boring on its own but looks very good as a crease colour, specially with Mulch, Haux or...

Beautiful color for my dark brown eyes especially when used at the crease. Perfect for daytime office wear since it is shimmer free.

I spent months looking for the perfect matte dark brown and I finally found it in Embark. It has red undertones that make it anything but boring. The color is especially great to darken the crease...

I completely adore this shade. It's an incredibly rich brown. It goes on nearly black but you can tell it's brown. I love putting it right in the outer corner of my eyelid with woodwinked in the...
