As in SUNMETAL from Moonbathe metallic?

That is what I want if that is the case, then I have to get some.


No, the l/s are not metallic but they were each dipped in a different metallic color and it results that they look like metallic colors.
Once you use them, the metallic coating will disappear and the true color of the l/s will show up.
So, you have to like the color underneath obviously.
I do think that 3 of the l/s are quite nice. My taste.

also, i could not see any green in quick frost. i can kinda see these multi-colored sparkles that reflects mostly green. very faint though... i would not have noticed it at all if i was not looking for green


I agree with you. Copperized, imo, looks like a combo of nightlight and old gold pigments. Definitely not Golden Olive. Cocomotion reminds of Sumptuous Olive (kinda) well at least on my skin tone.

I thought that Copperized was most like Night Light- not golden olive at all.

It is a little less forest green than Night Light,but they are too close for my taste to pick up another one.

i think that off the radar is the winner from this collection! i don't own nor have i ever seen a MAC pigment like it. its similar to firespot e/s but BETTER! the texture is like butter, i love it.

copperized doesn't really look anything like golden olive, imo.

mauvement wasn't as purpley as i was hoping it would be. quite similar to sunnydaze but with a vague plum tint.

gold mode is an absolutely gorgeous shade of gold. the texture is oh-so-fine too. VERY metallic-y, but looks sooo slick &smooth.

rushmetal is very similar to copper sparkle, just with a slightly better texture.

quick frost was boring. subtle green reflects, but not prominent enough to warrant buying another white pigment.

revved up is absolutely lovely. but kinda similar to other reg/le pigments.

i told myself that i was only going to buy 2 full sized pigments from this collection. ha, i ended up buying 4! off the radar, copperized, gold mode, &mauvement. i might go back for revved up as well.

I was severly disappointed by Off the Radar. This was the one I thought would be the Shizz,.. but,.. I passed on it,.. All I ended up with was Revved Up,..

I was really disappointed in it too! I got Revved Up and love it! Also got Gold Mode and Quick Frost.

Off the Radar is way too sheer for my taste- it is pretty, but it is rather dull compared to what most pigments are usually like. I am thinking I could take acid orange and add gold shimmer and come up with something even nicer than Off the Radar.

Might make a gorgeous blush for dark skin, however, having said that.

I dont know, but I have used it on my lips and no problems whatsoever - its gorgeous!!

I ended up with all 8 pigments in full sized and backups of 3 - Revved Up, Mauvement and Gold Mode. I hate Quick Frost, I might get rid of it, it does nothing for me. Cocomotion I should have passed on, its not a colour that flatters me well actually. I was disappointed with Off The Radar - I like the colour, but it is more sheer than I expected and its staying power is quite poor, it fades very quickly and I was hoping for better because I was really looking forward to that one. The others, Copperized & Rushmetal were just ...meh... pigments and much like exisitng colours. While Copperized is different to Night Light I have to agree with colourqueen here, they are too close to warrant one of each and I wont be replacing it or buying a backup for that one at all.
I LOVE Revved Up, Mauvement and Gold Mode, they are the 3 top picks for me in this collection, and I got backups for each of them. Revved Up is divine on lips and cheeks as well as eyes - a really good all rounder!! I love taupes so I knew Mauvement would be for me. I was pleasantly surprised with Gold Mode, I was expecting another Jardin Aires or Dazzleray, but this one is more reflective than the others and I love it!!

I actually purchased Off the Radar and Rubenesque paint pot together. The effect is much like Firespot, except the two together have more dimension. It's almost duochrome-y: in some lights, it's a beige gold, in others, it's a warm orange.

I bought Gold Mode and I am going to take it back. The sparkles get everywhere, even when I use a base! Reminds me of a lustre shadow. Arg.

Goldmode is beautiful, I got a generous sample of it yesterday when buying a MSF. Such a beautiful colour. I didn't find this one chunky. I didn't have a chance to swatch all the other ones, but Off the Radar was nothing like I expected.

all the rushmetal pigments are approved for all areas of the face, except copperized, which is not lip safe.
