The most beautiful, vibrant blue eyeshadow on the market. I have seen some really gorgeous blue eyeshadow looks, and almost all of them use freshwater. Sadly, something in this eyeshadow causes...

Definitely a pretty shimmery blue! I love pairing this color with Electric Eel. Goes on easy, stays well, and blends great.

I must say that this colour looks boring in the pot. I was coaxed by the MAC SA to buy this and i thank her for pushing this into my face. But when applied, its veluxe pearl formula makes this...

I just picked this up the other day because I don't have it in my collection and it is a really bright looking color. I like it but I find that, at least for me, it doesn't give me a ton of...

Freshwater is one of my favorite blue eyeshadows from mac because it's so pigmented. The color is gorgeous it's a bright electric blue. It looks great as a liner.

This is my favorite MAC blue eye shadow. It has amazing color pay off and blends easily, probably because it's a veluxe pearl. I use Too Faced Shadow Insurance exclusively as my primer these days...

this is by far my favorite blue from MAC. Pigmented, velvety soft, long lasting, and looks good with all eye colors. This is overall such an amazing color!

Love it. I use this for my blue smokey eye paired with Plumage. I can't think of any Cons about this. It's a staple in my main palette :)

Gorgeous color. It's highly pigmented and it's great as a lid color for a fun look. I use this along with contrast and carbon for a smokey look and with electra in the inner corner.
