I really like it! It delivers enough color on my lashes, and it gives me a bit of length and volume. Not a ton, but I have short and straight lashes that are practically non-existent.



I hope that helps. More photos and review on my blog.
Yeap, that definitely helps..Thank You! :) the color is beautiful

This goes a couple pages back, but here's Urban Decay Frigid on top and Banafsaji on the bottom on me. They are really similar but Frigid seems a tad purpler and Banafsaji has a stronger blue shimmer. But in some of my other pictures, they look the same. Gah, maybe I should redo the pic, the MAC swatch veered off course a little.

I wore it today with a dark bronze crease color, annette. I'd be interested to hear other colors, too. Another weird question is I don't know what color clothes to wear with brights like this. I always feel like I'm gonna clash. Today I wore a turquoise top and a striped skirt full of turquoise, teal, tan, beige, and brown. I felt all matchy matchy, but whatever.

Ohh I didn't even think of a dark bronze. That sounds pretty. Thanks TT :)

Swatched Parrot over a few color tattoos today. I swatched it over half so that you can see the effect. Left to right: Parrot, over Waves of White, Seashore Frosts, Blue Paradise, Tenacious Teal, Test My Teal

Here's a look I did with Rimal Dahabia quad. I wish I would have taken one of just my eyes but it was on the way to a wedding yesterday.

Small vanity on my cheeks and Poudre Signee De Chanel Illuminating highlight powder.

Wow, you're so beautiful!

And I agree on the brows, they're perfect! I will try that cheek combo.

Does anyone have suggestions on what colors I can use Parrot with?



I paired it with it with Scene on the lid, Phloof on the brow, Carbon to darken the outter corner, and then I took Parrot up from the Crease all the way up. I used grey eyeliner (marked for glamour) as a liner. I liked this, it really allowed the Parrot to stand out against all the grey/neutrals. It would work pretty paired with yellows also.

I'm in LOVE with this look! Wish they made the Brow Gel in a lighter color. I bough Parrot and a BU of it... im surprised its not sold out yet. But totally debating ordering another (just in case - gosh i love it soo!) and maybe Hajar Karim or maybe..BanafsaJi Oh dang.. I just don't know. Husband is going to kick my booty from all the money I've dropped on Mac and Nars lately.


Played in the Rimal Dihabia quad and Hajar Karim.
Najm el Lail was patchy, but a pretty color once it's on.
Beautyburst was a dream to work with. So smooth and pigmented. Glided on!
Hajar Karim did give a little fall out since you have to build it up. It was like I was using a little more effort to get the color out of the pan.
The Brow gel creme= amazing! That's all i have on my brows! It's so smooth and easy to work with. No surprise that it's sold out. I will get another if they restock.

Please excuse the lines under my eyes...They are the result of the University of Missouri Journalism school lol

Going to try this look tomorrow. I have marked for glamour too.. love the effect and the color of it but I'm just not really loving it.. I find it's kind of flaky. Do you have the same issue?

to your eyebrows? wow! sounds awesome!

i just got my parrot and banafsaji today. i can see why liba said banafsaji had some texture problems when i compare it to parrot. but the colours of both are soooo beautiful. parrot is nothing like any of the powder teals i have, though it is like the electric cool shadow. anyway, i'm glad i caved. i also got the blue mascara. so you know who's doing a blue eye look tomorrow!
