MAC Electric Eel Eye Shadow Review

by Muskaan Soni

Hello girls, so I am hoping that there are other girls like me who gaga over shades of blue rather than shades of pink. I AM ALL FOR BLUE. Even though blue eyeshadow is something which is not frequently used, I went ahead and bought two beautiful shades of blue eyeshadows.The one reviewed here is MAC Electric Eel Eye Shadow.

Basic info about MAC Electric Eel Eye Shadow

Price: 1400

Net weight: 1.5 gm

Directions of use: the eyeshadow doesn’t come with an applicator, so you would have to use or buy a separate applicator.

My experience with MAC Electric Eel Eye Shadow

Packaging: the eyeshadow comes in a plastic circular box, with a transparent window that allows you to see the color. The small box looks durable and convenient for traveling.

Texture: The eyeshadow is shimmery and does not have a matte finish. It is soft to apply and easy to blend. Unlike some other matte shadows, it doesn’t become cakey. It looks beautiful with a stroke of the liner.

My experience: The eyeshadow is a beautiful turquoise color that looks very subtle and beautiful when put on. I do not really like the shimmer as it looks matte in the packaging box. I find the eyeshadow a little disappointing in terms of staying power. It smudges easy and lasts for around 3 to 5 hours.

Overall Performance of MAC Electric Eel Eye Shadow

Pros:

  • Smooth texture
  • Variety of shades
  • Travel-friendly packaging

Cons:

  • Not too good staying power
  • Expensive
  • Smudges easily
  • No matte finish

Recommendation?

No, you can avoid buying this as its expensive and the lasting power is just sad. Except for the beautiful color is not worth buying.

Rating: 2/5
