I don't remember when I got this so I can't speak for the price. This product does require some warming up to blend so if they bring it back I hope they improve the formula. This does work to make...

I think this is the first MAC product I regret buying, and I have to say I hardly use it.
I don't really know if something went wrong with mine in particular but it is so dry and difficult to...

I'm on the fence about this one. I was using Paint Pot in Blackground (with a brush) to do a smokey eye, and thought it would be much faster and easier to use this instead. I do have to say that it...

nice intense greyish black - definitely cool toned. it's great on its own, or as a shadow base. as a base, it makes non-neutral toned shadows (like green or purple or blue) really pop out.

The product is a little too cool-toned for me to wear alone, but as a base, it works well to intensify or prolong powder eyeshadow shades. Also, since the shadestick is frosty, it changes any...

I bought this a long time ago because I wanted a nice dark base/liner. I love shadesticks but this one is really a strange one.
Sharkskin is the most difficult to blend. Its a bit rough if you...

I bought this quite a long time ago so I don't remember the price of it. I used to use it quite a lot and I remember loving the way it looked. It is basically a really fast way to a simple smoky...

I bought this for about $10 (I think) from my CCO. It is hard to blend. It pulls and tugs on my eyelid. This was my first shadestick and it will be my last. It is ok to use when I want a dark...

I had high hopes for this product, but it was difficult to use from the get go. I heard shadesticks were supposed to be creamy, this definitely is not, it's very dry and chalky and pulls at my skin...

This makes doing a smokey eye so easy. Its a dark shimmery charcoal that applies easy, but I find it is hard to smudge out. I have to had a black shadow (UD Oilslick) on top of this to smoke it...

I found this product a bit difficult to work with. I bought this shadestick because I needed a somewhat precise base for a smoky eye look. I used my MAC 272 brush (which I think it's the best tool...

Minus a lippie for how dry it is. It takes a bit of effort to get it onto your eyes.
I like the shimmer/glitter in this, however. Turns my matte shadows into something a little more.....

MAC's sharkskin is one of my makeup bag must haves. it livens up even the most boring shadow and makes smoky eyes a cinch to do. I have been trying out all kinds of dupes and nothing comes close....

This is one of the best black eyeshadow bases I have found...the texture is smooth, doesn't drag or pull your skin in application, and isn't messy (doesn't get everywhere) like so many other black...
