Skin Compatibility
MAC Eye Shadows are formulated to be suitable for all skin types, including sensitive skin. They are dermatologist- and ophthalmologist-tested, non-acnegenic, and safe for contact lens wearers. The formula is designed to blend softly without irritation
MAC Fard à Paupières Eye Shadow is a highly pigmented, pressed powder eye shadow available in a wide range of finishes—matte, satin, frost, shimmer, and more. Designed for rich, true-to-pan color in a single swipe, it offers seamless blending, long wear, and versatile application whether you’re doing subtle daytime looks or intense evening glam.
Key Benefits
- Long-lasting, crease-resistant wear—up to 8 hours without fading or shifting.
- Highly pigmented with bold color payoff that applies evenly.
- Uses seamlessly wet or dry—wet application delivers more intense, foiled finishes.
- Dermatologist- and ophthalmologist-approved; safe for sensitive eye area.
- Non-acnegenic and eye-safe for comfortable, all-day wear.
Intended Area of Use
Designed exclusively for eyelids and surrounding eye area such as the crease or lower lash line:
- Ideal for defining the eye crease
- Great for applying lid color, highlighting the inner corner, or lining
- Not intended for use on lips, cheeks, full face, or body
How to Use
- Prime your lids with an eye primer (such as MAC Prep + Prime 24-Hour Extend Eye Base) for maximum vibrancy.
- Dry application: Use a flat shadow brush to pack pigment or a blending brush to sweep a softer wash.
- Wet application: Slightly dampen your brush or sponge to intensify shimmer or metallic finishes.
- Blend using light, circular or windshield-wiper motions (e.g., with a 217S brush) for softness.
- Layer shades and finishes for eye depth, charcoal depth, or to create transitions and highlights.
Usage Warnings & Precautions
- Avoid using on broken, inflamed, or irritated eyelids.
- Patch-test first if you have known allergies or reactive skin.
- Use a light hand and tap off excess when loading the brush—these shadows are richly pigmented.
- Keep brushes clean; avoid inhalation of powder.
- Discontinue use if any irritation or discomfort occurs.
