MAC Small Eyeshadow in Swiss Chocolate excels in its ability to adapt to diverse makeup needs, from everyday natural enhancement to more dramatic evening styles.
Crease Definition: Use a fluffy blending brush to apply "Swiss Chocolate" into the crease of your eyelid. Its effortless blendability helps to create depth and contour the eye shape.
All-Over Lid Shade: For a monochromatic look, pack the color onto your entire eyelid using a flat shader brush. Its rich payoff ensures a vibrant and even result.
Lash Line Definition: Apply the shade with a small, angled brush along the upper or lower lash line to create a soft, diffused eyeliner effect or to add subtle definition.
Building Intensity: The color is buildable, meaning you can layer it to achieve your desired intensity. For a deeper look, apply multiple thin layers.
Wet Application: For an even more intense color payoff or a more precise line, lightly dampen your brush with water or a setting spray before picking up the product. This can transform the texture and vibrancy.
To ensure optimal performance and longevity of your MAC Small Eyeshadow, follow these guidelines.
Simply open the compact. No assembly is required. You will need to use your preferred makeup brushes for application.
Primers: Compatible with all eyeshadow primers to enhance color vibrancy and longevity.
Brushes: Works well with natural and synthetic bristle brushes, including fluffy blending brushes, flat shader brushes, and angled liner brushes.
Other Eyeshadows: Blends seamlessly with other powder eyeshadows, allowing for versatile layering and color combinations.
Storage: Store the eyeshadow compact in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent any changes in texture or color.
Handling: While the formula is pressed, powder eyeshadows can be fragile. Handle the compact with care to avoid dropping it, which could cause the product to crack or shatter.
Brush Hygiene: Regularly clean your makeup brushes to prevent product buildup and ensure smooth, hygienic application. Dirty brushes can affect the eyeshadow's performance and blendability.
Product Integrity: If the surface of the eyeshadow appears hard or crusted, gently scrape off the top layer with a clean tissue to reveal fresh product. This can happen due to oils from fingers or brushes.
