MAC Brant Brothers Eye Shadow Quad |
MAC Brant Brothers 4 Pillars: Eye Shadow X 4 ($43.50 CAD):
This eyeshadow quad comes in a very sleek and shiny plastic compact embossed with the collection logo. The packaging definitely has a more masculine/androgynous feel as the collection is designed with both men and women in mind. The palette includes four very neutral shades. You get a soft pale champagne shimmer, a matte light taupe-brown, a medium taupe-brown matte with subtle sparkles, and a matte black.

Mother's Milk is very silky and smooth and both
Sandstone and
Mystery are fairly pigmented for mattes.
Carbon, however, is very chalky and patchy; I could barely get the color to show up on my arm swatches. I know matte blacks are not easy to formulate but this one is definitely lacking.

All three shades are richly pigmented and buttery smooth. As their name suggests, the shades are easily blendable but they aren't smudge-proof. If you are into a more softened smoky look then these will work well but if you like your liners crisp and long-lasting, these aren't the most appropriate.
