Can I apply this eyeshadow wet or dry?

Yes, it is designed to be versatile and can be used both wet for a more intense look or dry for a softer application.

What tools can I use to apply this eyeshadow?

You can apply it using your fingers, a brush (such as a flat shader or blending brush), or a sponge-tip applicator, depending on your desired effect.

Yes, it is dermatologist tested, ophthalmologist tested, and non-acnegenic, making it suitable for sensitive skin and eyes.

How do I make the color more intense?

Troubleshooting

Color appears less vibrant than expected

Try applying the eyeshadow wet with a dampened brush or sponge-tip applicator to intensify the pigment. Also, ensure you're applying over an eyeshadow primer for a truer color base.

Eyeshadow is creasing or fading quickly

Always use an eyeshadow primer on your eyelids before application. This creates a smooth base, helps the shadow adhere better, and prevents creasing. For even longer wear, consider applying the shadow wet.

Difficulty blending the eyeshadow seamlessly

Use a soft, fluffy blending brush and apply in small, circular motions. Start with a small amount of product and build up gradually. If using multiple colors, blend each one thoroughly before applying the next.

Experienceing fallout during application

Tap off any excess product from your brush before applying. You can also apply your eye makeup before your face makeup (foundation, concealer) so any fallout can be easily wiped away without disturbing your base.

Setting up your MAC Small Eye Shadow is as simple as opening the compact. Ensure your eyelids are clean and dry, or primed with an eyeshadow primer for extended wear and enhanced color. This eyeshadow is compatible with various application tools including your fingers, a range of eyeshadow brushes (flat shader, blending brush), and sponge-tip applicators. For care, keep the compact closed tightly when not in use to prevent the powder from drying out or becoming contaminated. Store it in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. To maintain hygiene and performance, regularly clean your brushes and applicators with a gentle cleanser. Avoid introducing moisture into the compact when applying dry, and if using wet, ensure the surface dries completely before closing the lid to prevent bacteria growth.
