MAC SMW6Y1 eye shadow Rich Glitter, Matte, Satin, Shimmer

MAC SMW6Y1 eye shadow Rich Glitter, Matte, Satin, Shimmer is a six-shade pressed powder palette designed to deliver saturated violet tones with a range of finishes from matte to high-shimmer. The compact, mirrored casing contains richly pigmented shadows that blend evenly and can be applied wet or dry. The formula is created for extended wear with non-creasing performance and up to eight hours of colour payoff, suitable for everyday looks and more dramatic, evening styles.

Advantages

The texture of these pressed powders provides intense pigmentation with smooth application and reliable blendability. Shades include finishes that produce glitter, satin, shimmer and matte effects, giving flexibility for layering and creating depth. The long-wearing, non-creasing formula resists fading for up to eight hours and is suitable for use by contact-lens wearers; the product has been dermatologist- and ophthalmologist-tested. The compact format with a mirror makes the palette convenient for touch-ups and travel.

How to use

Apply shades with a clean brush or fingertip. For a natural daytime look, use matte and satin shades across the lid and blend outward. For more intensity or evening wear, dampen the brush slightly and apply shimmer or glitter shades to the centre of the lid to increase colour payoff and reflectivity. Layer darker tones in the crease to build depth and use a flat brush to pack pigment on the lid. Remove with a suitable eye-makeup remover and follow with your regular facial cleansing routine.

Usage recommendations

Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. When using glitter finishes, tap off excess from the brush before applying to reduce fallout. Patch-test on sensitive skin if you have known sensitivities, and avoid getting product directly into the eye—discontinue use if irritation occurs.
