MAC - Solar Field - May 08

[MAC_Whore]

Place all your Solar Field swatches and product photographs in this thread - please ensure that your images are clear, in focus and as colour-accurate as possible! For the sake of clarity, I ask that official product images and swatches (those that you would find on a mailer postcard, sourced from MAC or posted on the official MAC website) are not posted in this thread.

Please remember that Specktra has a posting guideline that all posted images be no wider than 640 pixels or higher than 800 pixels - if your image is any larger than that, please make a text link to the image instead.

• This thread is for pictures only - please keep all chatter and questions within the Solar Field discussion thread.
• For official product images, release dates and other information, please refer to the Solar Field colour story thread.

Meep! This is the first time I've ever done swatches, so I hope these are acceptable. I've posted the images in large sizes that you can see by clicking on the with flash and without flash links as well. I used Becca eye tint as a base, because it is neutral and non-shimmery.

I did a comparison photo of Black Ore with Too Faced Shooting Star so you could all see. I used Urban Decay Primer Potion only- no colored base used at all.

Although they are close, Black Ore has an extra Ooomph that Shooting Star does not have.

In person Black Ore is truly beautiful- well worth fighting with the horrible mess to apply it.

EDIT: I figured out how to apply Black Ore without any fallout- I use the 242 brush from MAC dampened and I got no fallout at all- it was wonderful.
