Love this pigment. Such a pretty warm fall shade. It's like an explosion of the sun and fall leaves. The base color is copper with pink shimmer. Very pigmented, a little goes a long way. Also, this stays on my oily lids for hours even without primer. I actually like to reach for this on my lazy days because it requires no blending or primer. Love it.

Got trial version of this to try it and fell in love! Alone its a shimmery look, love with dark brown outline. But especially love on top of a darker color. I use MAC pigment "Later" underneath and really boosts the color and sparkle. The bottle is huge, and lasts forever.

This pigment is a combo of Melon and Fuchsia pigment. I wouldn't get this color if you have Melon or Fuchsia. This is not a must have color.

I like this pigment a lot. It has a very pretty duo chrome effect to it (peachy pink to golden color). I was scared to wear it at first but it looked so pretty in the jar I just got it. I thought it might look weird but to my surprise I loved it. I always get compliments when I wear it and everyone likes it. I can see how it would look different on different skin tones though so def try it out on your own skin if you get the chance, or just get a sample!

This pigment is very unique and I can see why it hasn't worked for some people. MAC describes this color as "peach with pink duochrome" and that is a very close description on it. On some people, though, it can turn more "orange" than peach on the lids but it really depends on your complexion. This took a while of getting used to, as it looked like I had tired sore eyes when I just dabbed it on. I don't like to wear this alone but it looks awesome paired with some bronze/brown. This eyeshadow is duochrome and I love colors that reflect more than one shade. I haven't tried applying it to my cheeks but I'm sure the outcome will be great.

I really don't think I like the colour of this pigment at all. It looks a nice colour in the tub but when I apply it, it just looks a horrible pinky orange colour that looks so wrong on my skin tone. It probably looks nice on some people but I really don't like it at all!
I gave it a 3 however because I can see that it could work and would be nice on the right person. It also has a nice texture and applies well.
I wish I hadn't got the full size of this as I'll never use it so I wouldn't recommend it or buy it again!

This wouldnt be an everyday pig for me,more for when i want to be playful i guess. Its a really cool color thats hard for me to describe (peachy,salmon?) Looks terrible on me when my hair is burgundy but better when its in its natural strawberry blonde state.

I love the orange and pink hues in this fabulous bronze pigment. It works really well with my fair/medium skin tone and my dark brown eyes. Bronze usually drowns out my eye color but this actually made mine pop. And it is by MAC so without me even saying it you know this is high quality. Love this color and will keep it around as long as it's made.

GORGEOUS COLOR!!!!!!!!!! This is my favourite pigment by far!!! It's exactly what the colour says...it's a bronzy pink. It has a metallic sheen and if you wanna enhance it then use it wet. But it's honestly such a fun and gorgeous colour. Reminds me of summer on a beach.

wow.. I walked into mac, NOT expecting to buy this.. I was out searching for the perfect hot pink lippie.. then I stumbled upon this.. this has to be one of the most gorgeous COLORS I've ever seen in my life.. it's this insane iridescent coralish color with hot pinkish shimmer.. I can't tell you how in love I am with this color, and I haven't even created a look with it yet.

I found this at a CCO and am in love! I've always wanted it, but my counter doesn't sell it. It is a pretty pink, a bit coral. It reminds me of Motif shadow but is so much prettier. I've worn it with different shadows including Embark, 100 Strokes, Bronze. I think the it is perfect match for any shadow combination. I like that it can be really bright or can be very sheer if you blend it more. Applied wet, it is beautiful! And it looks great on my lips with clear gloss. I won't buy again cause I will probably never run out! I am NW 45.

Ok i had a makeup artist use this on me for my bff wedding, she used it on the other bridesmaids as well. I am African American mixed hispanic (central america), two of the other bridemaids where from dominican rep. but one was dark and the other had fair skin and here is where it got interesting the last bridesmaid was asian from China. All that to say it looked great and distinct on all of us!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! and any makeup that can do that to me is worth having i love love this pigment

This is not only SUPER gorgeous but it is so perfect on me - bright blue eyes, multi-blond hair, tan complextion. This really and truly one of my HG MAC Pigments. It looks best once it's set or used with MAC Mixing medium it's a warm yellow brown w/ hot pink reflect. Claire De Lune e/s from Moonbathe 2007 goes perfect as a highlighter with this. This is so versitile. As complimentry e/s w/ Pink Bronze I've used: UD Last call e/s, MAC Smut e/s, MAC Beauty Marked, MAC Bronze, MAC Full Flame, MAC Soba, MAC Brown Down, MAC Cranberry, MAC Fab & Flashy, MAC Firespot, MAC Saturnal, MAC Beauty Burst, and UD Gash... goodness this one is just too fun.
But my favorite MAC combo's include just matte like e/s used most is:
Pink bronze completely washed over all the e/s's I use on the lid area not all the way up on me - this gives a great dimentional look. I like to use Full Flame, Soba, Brown Down or Beauty Burst and Claire De Lune as brown highlight. One sexy look might I add. I use MAC Honey Moon l/s in the day and Sunmetal w/ this look at night.

This is a duo chrome pigment, which means it has two levels of coloring. I'll post pictures below so that you can see the two separate colors in natural sunlight.

Pink Bronze is relatively smooth and better than most Mac pigments that I've used that can tend to be chunky and messy. This pigment does have some fall out when used dry, but as long as you use it wet it does fine. I really don't like this pigment worn sheerly as a wash on its own, since it just seems to look odd, so I prefer to build up the coverage so it becomes opaque. It also makes a great lipgloss color, addition to a shimmery blush or mixed into loose powder for a glowy finish.

I am NW15 with green eyes. This is a permanent pigment; the color description is a high-frosted pink/peachy/bronze with copper duochrome. This is another one of the fun color-changing pigments. On its own it's a pinky-bronze that can look orange on fair skintones. Over a dark base it turns into a lovely pink. This color goes very well with oranges, reds, coppers, etc and is better suited for warm skintones (my skin tends to be pretty neutral however). Also, this color would look AMAZING as a highlight for darker skintones. Pigments are $19.50 each and I would definitely repurchase.

Gorgeous! This can be used in so many different ways!
This irridescent peach- coral colour can be used as an eye shadow. either on it's own with some black liquid liner in the day or with some dark brown eye shadow for a smokey look in the evenings.
I sometimes pair it with a clear lip gloss for peachy lips and also applied sparingly it can be used as a highlighter on my cheek bones, although not all at the same time!
The powder container is a little messy but the pigment is so concentrated that a little goes a long way. A pot of this stuff lasts forever!

I love pink bronze. On my dark caramel skin (nc50) pink bronze shows up beautifully. It's a duochrome look of many colors..... I like it with Shadowy Lady or Sketch in the crease and Vanilla pigment as a highlighter. So pretty. Its is bright and shimmery so when I wear it to work I tone it down a lot but I always recieve compliments on this. I wont buy again because I have a full jar that will last me forever.
