Jubilation shimmer is the PERFECT companion to MAC's Aquadisiac eyeshadow. It is about a shade or two lighter, without the silver sparkles, but its intense shimmer is a perfect contrast to Aquadisiac's more matte appearance. With Jubilation shimmer on the lid and Aquadisiac in the crease, the effect is really nice. Jubilation shimmer comes forward because of the shimmer, and Aquadisiac falls back due to its more matte appearance.
Jubliation shimmer is one of the more shimmery glittery pigments but used wet, it is more metallic looking.
Mixing a little of Sweetscents White gold gives Jubilation shimmer a fabulous gold sparkle that is just enough to make it look interesting but not overwhelming.
If this is your first sweetscents review....
If you want to check out these pigments, they are about $2 each for a 10g jar (MAC wants $18.50 for a 7.5g jar) and the quality is as good as MAC in most of the colors.
Go to http://www.sweetscents.com/mica_2.html and look for Mica Pack Combos at the bottom of the page.
Some of the colors that I am reviewing are not on the site yet, it is supposed to be revamped soon. You can talk with the sweetscents lady via phone or email (it is on the site) and tell her that you read my review of the color if you do not see it on the site (she knows me by now since I ask endless questions- I am the artist capri) and that way she will not wonder how you knew about the color.
She will also help you find colors you might like if you tell her what you like or are looking for. That is how I found so many awesome colors. She is a pigment addicts DREAM!
Lovely color and quite unusual.
