Review of MAC Mineralize Skinfinish in Soft and Gentle by carlybabes

I love this product, but I have a confession to make. I don't use it as a face highlighter. I use it as an all over wash of eyeshadow. On days when I wear no other eye makeup, I put this on with the MAC 227 and at least look like I tried. The color is basically skin tone (my skin tone-NW 30ish) with shimmer. I don't actually see any glitter in mine, just fairly large and frosty shimmer particles. On days when I have a little more time, but still not enough for a full face, I'll put S&G all over and a bit of Satin Taupe in the crease. It's a no-brainer product for eyes. And the huge face-sized compact will last for-freaking-ever. If you bought this as a face highlighter, and are disappointed that it's too shimmery, enlarges pores, or looks greasy, try it on your eyes. It may not be a waste after all!
