Just absolutely gorgeous. Perfect for using on your lower lashline to give yourself that...yeah I got enough sleep and the sun really is shining from under me even though it's 2 pm kinda look. I think it works wonderfully on olive, tan skintones. Just makes you look like a bronze goddess.

I love melon! I picked it up when it was promoted with surf baby, but it is a permanent shade.

This pigment is one of the best I've ever had. It applies evenly and well, while most of the pigments I have tend to feel grainy. This colour reminds me of amber lights, but much lighter. I like this shade because it goes with anything!

This product is great to put over an eyeshadow to give a glowing effect. Also works great on the center of your lips.

'Melon' is my ultimate favourite out of all the Mac pigments for its prettiness and versatility.

It works for daytime/night time looks and is also subtle enough for sport without making you look like a drag queen.

I personally apply a thin layer of vaseline over my eyelids first and then smear the shimmer over so that it 'grips' and creates a more intense look (I think the shimmers on their own can look a bit muted if you don't do this - it really brings them to life!)

Lasts all day and looks fantastic with a slick of black liquid eyeliner on top eyelids and lashing of black mascara :]

Also works wonderfully for neutral and more dramatic looks. I usually pair this with my classic look - Bourjois blushed cheeks and soft pink lipstick but I'm sure it'd work great with stronger looks too.

melon is my overall favorite pigment from Mac. I just love the colour so much. I use it as an eyeshadow, eyeliner, highlighter and Lipgloss. it never fails to look amazing and it goes with all looks and outfits because it's a nutural/bronze-apricot colour. amazing!!

I love to use this in the inner eye when I do a brown smokey eye, but I love it even better as a highlight! It gives a beautiful golden glow if u lightly dust it on your upper cheekbones with a fluffy brush. I always get compliments. I've had this for a year and barely made a dent in it. It last a long time. Love mac pigments.

This is a gorgeous shade of peach. On my lids it is a fairly accurate colour to what you see, however, when you mix it in any gloss it loses its peachiness and becomes golden, which makes it harder to wear on lips for me. I also think the texture could be a bit finer but other than that, a good staple pigment to have.

I don't reach for this pigment a lot mainly because it looks "off" on me. It doesn't brighten my eyes at all, maybe it's because of my medium olive skin. I find that peach colors don't do it for me around the eyes. I also find it hard to find something to pair this color with.

This is a bright peachy pink with yellow undertones. This color will wake up your eyes. I wear this color with chocolate brown or violet pigment.

This is the first pigment I have ever used and so far I like it. Nice shimmery slightly peachy gold I would describe. Next time I will try a little on my cheeks as well to see how it works as highlight.

Beautiful, Gorgeous Pigment. I am NC44 and this pigment looks wonderful on my skin. I would definitely repurchase this again. I was luck enough to find this at the CCO, and I scooped it up. I use it wet with a couple of other pigments for a pretty evening or special occasion look. I get nice compliments when I wear this pigment. I haven't tried to use it as a highlight, but I heard that works well. If you see this in a CCO or holiday set, pick it up! One of my favorite pigments.

When I saw the colour of this pigment, I just HAD to have it! It'd such a gorgeous colour! The consistency is the same as all MAC pigments, and has a wonderful shimmer to it. I find that when I mix it with a mixing medium it does make it look a little chunky on my eyes, but what I do is apply it over MAC's little minx eyeshadow to give it a duo-tone shimmery effect. It give the darkness that I like and the orangey colour is still noticable. Another thing I like doing with this pigment, is mix it with my Lise Watier Metamorphix mixing medium to make it into a liquid liner. It looks fantastic on green or hazel eyes! I'm not sure if this pigment is still available, but if it is ever offered at a swap or online, I would reccomend giving it a try, I wear it regularly, and quite enjoy it.

OMGSH! this is my favorite Mac pigment! I love it so much! I ordered it as a sample first off, and then another sample and then another until I ordered the big jar! I am in love, and in my own opinion, it is the best pigment everrrr! It is very wearable yet bright and spunky! I am daring but I also am a nanny so I cant be too out of control and this gives that perfect balance when paired with a fierce highlight and l/s...I adore it. It is also good for a highlight and even for nail polish! you can do a lot with this. I will stop now b/c I could go on all night! I love it, buy it, and buy the big one! :D

I bought Melon pigment cause thats what everybody told me to do. Everyone raves about it and I figured as a pretty new to MAC I should get it. I got it at my CCO, in the old larger packaging. First off, you get tons of product. Way more than I can handle at times. It can be messy to use. But I must say this product is so versatile. I use it over Rubenesque and Coral Crepe PP and it looks stunning. It looks fierce on my nails. I've yet to try it as a highlight but I'm sure it'd be nice. I doubt I'd run out any time soon, but I would repurchase.

I love how this color comes out! i have to say, this looks horrible in the bottle, but when applied, it looks great, and it's perfect for a day and night look! it's shimmery, but not too crazy! it's a great summer color! The only reason i wouldnt buy it again is because i like trying other colors.. but it's nice!

It looks like a really ugly shade in the bottle, but I love how it goes on. I pair it with the MAC eyeshadow Paradisco and it looks awesome!

eh. this comes off uber yellow-orangey on my lids. It did look nice in the jar but once applied, it makes me look sickly and my lids looked crusty. I'm assuming it's due to my yellow-toned asian complexion. I guess one can use this elsewhere (cheeks, lips) but I mainly use pigment for color on the lids so this has got to go.
