I've been wearing this almost every day ever since I bought it because it's great for a quick, no fuss look. I often wear it alone as a wash and it really lights up my eyes. It looks really amazing with Trax in the crease. You must try this combo if you have green eyes! I've already carved a pretty good dip in this eyeshadow, so of course I will buy again!

After reading all the reviews I was very excited to try this color. I have given it a few days and have really wanted to like it, but unfortunately it is going to be exchanged. I have very light but not fair skin and I have blue eyes. This is one of those colors that makes me look like I have been up all night or that allergy season has begun. I have to be careful with golds and lean more towards bronze (more neutral) tones beacuse they bring out my eyes and do not add sickly warmth to my skin. I also think that the texture of this shadow also greatly adds to the negative aspects of this shadow. The texture makes my eyelids look wrinkly and extra shiny in a bad way, even with a matifying base, contributing to the irritated eye appearance. I actually thought this shadow worked better without the base since my eyelids looked slightly less wrinkly. I really like MAC shadows, the best part about them being that there are so many to choose from. Not everything works for everyone. Just because it doesn't always work doesn't mean its bad. So if you have light but not fair skin, make sure to try all that glitters on your face before you buy because it looks very tempting in the pan, on the hand, or on your friend.

You MUST get All That Glitters! Veluxe Pearl shadows are love..the texture is amazing. It is a golden neutral that looks very pretty on my light skin. It is a must have for the neutral look, but you can also spice it up by using it with a brighter colour.

This is a GREAT staple MAC e/s color and the Veluxe Pearl formula makes it even better. The other reviewers have described the color well, so I won't add to that. I'm so happy this isn't LE. This is one of my all-time faves from MAC and a must-have IMO.

This is a beautiful shade. It does last nicely, but still creases a bit on me after a day's wear. Since it's such a great day AND night shade and has a lovely texture, I would repurchase this.

This is the perfect neutral-but-not-boring shade. It's a VP...and as everyone else has stated, has the blendibility, color impact, and longevity for which VP's are famous. This is a deep, shimmering champagne color...has a touch of peachiness without being too reddish or orange (unliked woodwinked, which is gorgeous but too orange). It plays well with most other colors. For an everyday neutral, I use this all over the lid, with satin taupe in the cease and vex to highlight. *EDIT* I took down a lippie, because the peachiness is a bit too much for my medium-pale asian skin to pass for a true neutral. I liked UD's blunt at Sephora's...that should work out better. This is still a lovely eyeshadow, but not precisely what I'm looking for.

I got All That Glitters e/s for christmas from a friend. I love this colour so much its that golden champagne colour with a hint of peach to it on my NC40 skin. This colour is so gorgeous and i love the textures especially it being Veluxe Pearl which is my favourite out of the whole range. I love to team All That Glitters with purples such as Beautiful Iris and Purple Haze and other shadows such as Shimmermoss and Steamy, this eyeshadow i think will just go so perfectly with any colour in the MAC e/s range!

I absolutely adore this color! Great for a day look but can also be incorporated into night. It's a medium beige with gold/champagney yet (i see) some amber tones in it that I feel will suit everyone! The texture is wonderful too! (stay away from MAC's lustre formula...horrible)
I'm just so happy MAC made it permanent for it seems all the colors I like are LE. It really wakes up my eyes and just looks beautiful! (for reference i am a FFF/MMM NC30/35 - i know..i'm in between. hehe)

I adore the VP formula, and this color is a wonderful addition to my favorites. The website describes it as midtone beige with gold reflects, and for me, they've hit the nail right on the head. It's such a gorgeous color, perfect as a wash or a highlighter. This is one I'll be reaching for again and again, much like Woodwinked.

This glittery peachy colour really suits my FFF complexion and blue eyes. I love it paired with Samoa Silk!! Looks natural enough to wear any day.

This is one of my favorite MAC eyeshadows. I like to wear this with Deep Truth or Parrot. I love the brownish gold color, and for me it shows up and makes my brown eyes pop.

This is a beautiful color that will pair with almost any color. Gives me a little more color than most of my washes, however with winter coming I might leave this to my lids only. A really pretty goldish color, but still very natural. I will rebuy whenm I run out. By the way, this is a veluxe pearl and IMHO, is their best formula, smooth, excellent pigment, great blendability. All of the Idol Eyes are permanent and worth a look!

It’s a veluxe pearl which in my opinion are the best of MAC's shadows in terms of pigmentation and blendability. This is a dulled gold which I use as a 2nd wash on the 2nd half of my lids (its too dark to use on the whole of my lid - I am an AAB NC30-35). I would definitely repurchase if I ever run out, but I don't that I will.

I love this color. Its kinda hard to describe, but I'll give it a try. At first I was thinking...just another hint of orange/peach e/s. It's something about this color that made me love it. Besides from being a VP (my favorite formulation), the color really came alive on my lids. I paired it with plumage in the crease and jest has a highlight. It totally rocked. I had a nice day look that did not overwhelm my face. This is a must have for me. I will repurchase if I hit pan.

I love MAC Veluxe pearls, they're my favorite formula. This is a beautiful champagne with a hint of peachy brown shadow. I personally love it as a wash with dark brown liner. I've been in a neutral rut lately so I haven't tried paring it with any bright colors but I imagine it would look lovely with a bright purple. This shadow is long lasting and there is no color change after hours of wear. I also didn't have a problem with creasing. This color isn't LE (thank goodness) but keep an eye out for it the next time your at a mac store or counter because it's beautiful. Warm Olive MMM brown hair and eyes.

I love love love this e/s! I'm a huge fan of the Veluxe Pearl texture & All that Glitters is no exception. Goes on silky smooth and over MAC Paints as a base - lasts all day long. I also love that it comes in pan form - I hate depotting LE e/s.

On me (NC40) - it's a golden champagne color that is the perfect neutral. It has a nice sheen to it, but isn't too frosty (still wearable to the office). So far, I've paired it with Twinks, Mulch and Bronze and have not been disappointed. I look forward to trying it with my other MAC favs - Nocturnelle & Antiqued - just to name a few.

Will definitely purchase again!

Don't let the name fool you..though it has some hints of gold,it's not what you may expect..I found it to be a true Champagne shade..a nice mix of gold,beige and alittle peach.Great for highlighting or a wash..The color is subtle but still enhances my green eyes.Another VP keeper

All That Glitters is a Veluxe Pearl eye shadow from Idol Eyes collection. The texture is awesome, it's so soft, almost creamy. It's a warm golden light brown. It's like a warm Twillery. (Twillery was a LE shade in Inventive Eyes quad) That's the only warm brown shade I can wear, everything else turn orange on me! (Woodwinked and Elite were too orangey...)
