If you like the full-on shine, girlfriend, go for it. For me, whenever I wear shiny shades like these, I like to have something matte or satin to balance everything out, like I actually took one of the Extra Dimension Bronzers from the collection and put it in the crease.

I’m looking forward to trying it with the nude lip shades from the collection, like Peachstock Lipglass, for a summery smokey eye. Since I’m a sucka for smokey eyes, all I want to do with this one is smudge a black liner all over my lash lines and smoke it out on top.

I love those peacock feather colors, ya know? I can’t wait to wear this one with a deeper green, maybe something like MAC Tarnished Eye Kohl.

Extra Dimension Eye Shadow in Legendary Lure Legendary Lure Extra Dimension Eye Shadow You could do Woodwinked on the lid, Lorelei in the inner corners and lower lash lines and Soft Brown in the crease. It’s not quite as shiny in person (more of a subtle sheen), and I think it looks gorgeous with peaches and golds, like - ooh! - Indianwood Paint Pot or Woodwinked. I know that it looks a little frosty in the swatch, but that’s partly due to the flash. I think it also has hints of peach in it… Lorelei is otherworldly! What a lovely golden beige and a great everyday color. I’ve been playing with four of the six Extra Dimension Eye Shadows this morning, and here some quick thoughts… Extra Dimension Eye Shadow in Lorelei Lorelei Extra Dimension Eye Shadow I packed them on with the MAC 233 Split Fibre Eye Shadow Brush from the collection, but a MAC 217, with its fluffier domed shape, would deliver a lighter wash of soft, shimmery color.

Soft, shimmery eyes, chrome nails and glistening skin characterize the collection. There are also a couple of liners, nail polishes, regular powder brushes, a makeup bag and a few other tidbits (full list down below). The ship sets sail with 32 pieces - a good many of them lipsticks and lipglosses - with a couple of lip pencils and plenty of beautiful pieces with MAC’s Extra Dimension formula (eyeshadows, bronzers and blushes). Shimmery, shiny and teal, and the little water droplets make it unlike anything I’ve seen before, at least that I can remember. The release splashes ashore May 15 at and May 22 at North American MAC counters (internationally some time in May). Gah! Lure me in, why don’t ya? - with your lustrous teal packaging, Neptunian theme and the inviting Extra Dimension formula that makes me want to dive into your shimmery waters without fear or hesitation. That’s the siren song of the new MAC Alluring Aquatic collection. Oh, my goodness! I think I know what it is.
