FAQs

Can I use MAC Small Eye Shadow in Sketch with a wet brush?

Yes, this eyeshadow is designed for both wet and dry application. Using it wet will intensify the color payoff and create a more dramatic look.

How long does the MAC Small Eye Shadow typically last on the eyelids?

The formula is designed to stay put for up to eight hours without running or creasing.

Is this eyeshadow safe for people with sensitive eyes or contact lens wearers?

Yes, it has been ophthalmologist tested and is safe for contact lens wearers. It is also dermatologist tested and non-acnegenic.

What tools are recommended for applying this eyeshadow?

You can apply it using your fingers, a brush (various types for different effects), or a sponge-tip applicator. The choice of tool depends on your desired look and precision.

How can I achieve the most intense color from this eyeshadow?

For maximum intensity, apply the eyeshadow with a slightly damp brush or build up the color in layers using a dense, flat brush.

Will this eyeshadow cause acne or breakouts around the eye area?

No, it is formulated to be non-acnegenic, meaning it's designed not to clog pores or contribute to breakouts.

Troubleshooting

Eyeshadow not lasting the full 8 hours or creasing

Ensure eyelids are clean and oil-free. Consider using an eyeshadow primer before application to create a smooth base and enhance longevity. Applying the shadow wet can also increase its staying power.

Color appears less vibrant or intense than expected

For maximum color payoff, apply the eyeshadow using a flat, dense brush and press the color onto the lid. For even greater intensity, try applying the shadow with a slightly damp brush (wet application technique).

Difficulty blending the eyeshadow seamlessly

Use a soft, fluffy blending brush with light, circular motions. Start with a small amount of product and gradually build up. If using multiple colors, ensure each layer is blended before adding the next.

Eyeshadow fallout during application

Tap off excess product from your brush before applying. For very pigmented or shimmery shades, apply your eye makeup before your foundation to easily clean up any fallout without disturbing your base.
