Do you store them in the fridge?

I wonder if these can be stored in the fridge like Cremeblend blushes,CCBs etc. too.

I'm getting a backup of Coffee Walnut... even with how pale I am, it still works nicely for contouring on me since its not warmed toned like most of the rest of them.

I think they would be fine in a fridge, or keep it in the box in a cool place like under a cabinet maybe...

I got richly honed, deeply dashing and day gleam. I tried them out tthis morning: richly honed is a perfect contour colour for me. It's not too strong initially, which I think is good for everyday. If I want something sharper, I think I'll be able to layer more on. I haven'tt figured out the pressed pigments . I guess it would have helped to use a 'humid' brush. I ended up with tiny sparkles on my cheekbones and I was unable to get rid of them! More control required.... I think they'll look really nice layered on top of cream products (like the sculpting creams) , butt I'd like to be able to not get the full sparkle effect....not sure how to do that. I don't understand what mac had in mind with the pressed pigment. I had hoped they'd be more like the actual pigments, but in solid form, but these seem to have a lot more sparkle.

Naturally Defined Pro sculpting cream (link is in my signature if you wanna read my review):




I'm NC35 right now, see how it disappear when I blend it slightly (right side)?

I agree with everything he said about the contour brush. I could not really tell how much product I had on the brush and it was not good for blending it out. I'm going to try it with a full coverage foundation like he suggested.

I bought all the creams for my kit but I'm not sure I like them. I agree with him about that as well, they are very warm.

@ the video.


I'm still unsure if I should keep the eye brush. I really don't like it much and can't see myself getting a lot of use out of it, if any.

One last thought on the brush, I didn't really think it would blend, but I had my fingers crossed LOL!

Love the sculpting creams! So easy and pretty!!! I will back these up!!! Like the 163. Not 1000% a hit but I will use it. I contour daily so yeah. If you do not contour, it isn't a must have. 215, do not care for but I have them and will use them. It is probably my least fav eye brush. The pigments. Good gravy. I MIGHT use for balls and formal events on my chest and arms. The face is a no go even crushing them. I can't use them without fallout like crazy and blending is impossible for me to do and not spread glitter everywhere. IDK if I should try them wet or what. For a super duper fashion look, I could see them working but not for the average chica.

I got the Light Touch Pressed Pigment, thinking I could use it on my eyelids with just black liner and mascara. So disappointed - the glitter is very pretty, but it travels all over my face and is hard to clean up . Swatched dry on my arm, it's barely there except for a tiny bit of glitter, but wet it looks much better, with some actual colour there too. More wasted money :(

That's probably the best use for these, thanks for the idea

Hello ladies, today I used the sculpting cream in coffee walnut and pure sculpture...

On the left I combined coffee walnut and blended it out with pure sculpture, on the right it's coffee walnut on it's own. I think it works for someone with the same skintone as me - yellow/neutral no red nc42/43.5
