I am shocked! I purchased this along with the other Neo SciFi colors two years ago. I really have enjoyed Femme Fi (which by the way is truly "all that") but have not really touched the others, except Expensive Pink. The other day I was playing and swiped this on. It is a gorgeous gold! Who knew? I love golds and have been playing a lot with UD Half Baked and MAC Goldmine as well as Indianwood Paint Pot and some colors from my Coastal Scents palettes. As the previous reviewer mentioned Woodwinked, this color is better, more subtle and requires less work with no fallout only a pure sheen and shimmer. It's a super smooth most excellent formula! NC 25-35 for reference.

I SOOO wish this was not an LE item! It is one of my few HG eyeshadows. When applied, it looks like a more wearable and less in your face version of Woodwinked, which is another great shadow. Also, I don't have to use any other eyeshadows along with this one because it reflects light in such a way that it looks like I put on quite a few eyeshadow colors. I can see this working on any skin tone and looking absolutely divine. LOVE IT! I have a back up and am currently looking for a backup to my backup because I don't ever want to not have this eyeshadow.

I bought this at a CCO and being a neutral lover, I thought I would love this shadow as well. But once I got home, I couldn't get the shadow to show up on my eye. I've never had this problem with veluxe pearl, starflash, matte squared shadows, or lustres. I used a base underneath, my finger and several different brushes, including the infamous MAC 239. I returned this.

I bought this at a CCO like most of the girls, and this was one of the first MAC eye shadows I got. I think it's lovely! The texture is great and the color is neutral but with a twist. It's great, I love it.

I bought this at a CCO a while back. i remember I didnt want to get this color cuz when swatched, i thought it wouldnt look good on me. I was dead wrong! This is a beautiful gold color that looks great for a neutral eye. It blends real well & brings some life to my eyes. I used it today & realized that Im happy for gettin this. So i u see this color at a CCO, pick it up. I think it's a staple in everyone's collection :))

I finally was able to stop at CCO 1.5hrs away enroute to family. I was kind of disappointed of what was there, but after narrowing it down to picked one eyeshadow, I picked this. It's a beautiful neutral bronzey-gold. I have no problems applying it or blending it. So glad I picked it up, as I don't have anything in my stash like it.

In love does not sum it up. I am a Mac and Nars junky knew this was L/E so I bought 4 so happy I did as I have yet to find a dupe for it. The most perfect gold in my skin almost looks like I could naturally radiate this color. I am NC45 skinone and it's just gorg. Sooooo happy with it close to indianwood but better!!!!!!!

I just got this at CCO as an impulse buy. I thought I was done building my neutral collection but it was cheap so I figured..why not. This is a stunning color! It looks pretty boring in the pan, but when applied it has a really nice warm light bronze/gold payoff. I might even go back to grab another.

Picked this up at my local CCO, and when i swatched it on my hand, it looked like a nice bronze color. However, when I applied it to my eye, it turned a copper orange color. Not very flattering on my NC25 skin with brown eyes. I find the color is similar to Sable, but Sable is more brown with purple, and a ton more flattering. (They are the same finish - frost) I will definitely be returning this the next time I visit the CCO.

I picked this up at my local CCO a few weeks ago and hoped that it would work. It seems that you really have to dig into the shadow to get to the color. It's a metallic light-medium copper, very warm toned and not a color that I found was very flattering, hopefully I can find the receipt and exchange it for something else.


For reference I'm a NW/NC 25 or Light-Medium with Neutral/Beige Undertone.

I love this eyeshadow!! I think it's the perfect lid color, great for everyday wear. I didn't really appreciate this eyeshadow until I stopped using it for a while. I just recently started using it again and I am in love. I think it's great for any skin tone but especially those of us with olive complexion. Time and space is a beautiful bronze color. I like it better than woodwinked because it's not so gold. It's just gives your lids a gorgeous shine/glow!!! I love it!!!!

I got this from MUA and really love it. It is a shimmery copper-brown, I actually want to say "bronze". I used rubenesque under this to bring out the copper in it, and shroom as a highlight. This color is so fun I didn't want to take away from it by adding a darker crease color. I have always wanted woodwinked but after reading reviews saying they are very similar I will not get that. Using this today it makes me think of summer. I would say I'd buy it again but of course it's l/e. Gotta love the orange packaging :)

OK, so I'll admit: I bought this because what kind of Sci-Fi geek would I be if I ignored a shadow called TIME & SPACE from a Sci-Fi collection? Not a very smart one. It's a good thing I did buy it, as it was the first goldish-copper eyeshadow I bought that I felt wasn't too gaudy. It was very subtle on my skin tone (NW25) and blended perfectly with greens and browns. Just beautiful, I definitely don't mind going all the way to my local CCO to get this, as it's unfortunately only limited edition (THANKS, MAC). For a girl who loves neutral colours, this is the perfect subtle daytime gold.

Time & Space in the box looks like woodwinked; however, once applied it is much more wearable than woodwinked. T&S is a a bronzey/gold like color that is very beautiful. It does not look like Indianwood on me. It's a very unique brown that I am glad to add to my collection.

I am so glad I made the trip out to CCO for this eye shadow. I tend not to want to splurge on MAC products, and will only buy them when I can get a good deal. $10 for this at CCO was good enough for me. It's gorgeous color, a dream to apply and blend, and looks great with my eyes (blue with lots of green in them). I primarily use this as a crease color over a nice pink or with the NYX Jumbo Eye Pencil in French Fries. The blending is amazing and it holds up in my crease throughout the day. This is a color that can be as subtle or as POW as you want it to, but it always makes my crease look fantastic. I will definitely be making my way to the CCO again soon to repurchase a backup of this color.

This shadow is the powdered version of MAC's Indianwood paint pot..And while I would usually verbally flog MAC for their lack of originality, in this case, I'm cool with it!! I prefer powder shadows to creams anyway. I'm NC15 and this shows up as a complex bronzed peach. I don't get any orange from this as I did with colors like Amberlights and Woodwinked. Great pigment..easy to apply..blends like a dream and a total must for green eyes.

One of my first MAC shadows. Very pretyt color. I used this on the crease with All that GLitters on the lid, mulch on the outer V and shroom to highlight. Love it.

It's pretty in the pot, but the pigment goes flat when blended. CCO purchase.. and it's one of my only bad choices. I like the bright orange packaging.

I really like this colour, but as I already have Woodwinked, which is one of my HG e/s I can justify having both. yes the packaging is cute, but the colour is so close to woodwinked that I have to swap it, and that is why I said I wouldnt buy the colour again. It has the tiniest tint of copper more than woodwinked but I really like woodwinked finish. If you dont have either get Time & Space as it is LE and then you can always get woodwinked if you run out. :)
