gold deposit


MAC mineralized skin finish in Gold Deposit.
Recently I've been loving MAC's gold deposit mineralized skin finish. It is supposed to be a multi-use product and can be used as a blush, bronzer, highlighter or even an eyeshadow. I haven't previously purchased a skin finish before but after having a play at my local MAC counter I fell in love and couldn't resist taking this home for my collection.I love how pretty it looks in the pan and the swirly affect the skin finishes have means they're all unique, aw. 


Here it is on my skin. I guess it's quite hard to tell from this picture but you can see the glittery particles. I mainly use this as a highlighter on my cheek bones and where ever else I need it and it gives a lovely warm glowy and slightly bronzed look. At first I was a bit cautious to use this as it looks SO orange in the packet and being quite pale I could just see myself looking like a clown. It is very pigmented but as long as you're careful and don't go all out and use a gentle hand you should be fine ( and not looking like a disco ball!)  At £21 this product isn't cheap but you really do only need the tiniest bit that it will last for ever.

  23. This is one of my FAVORITE M.A.C products. I'm like a magpie, as soon as I saw this glowing in the store, I had to have it. And you're right, you only need the tiniest amount.

  24. I've always wanted to try a MAC MSF, they look scary to me too. I never understand if we are meant to use them as highlighters or all over powders, people seem to use some of them as both? Confusing!

    Thanks for checking out my blog, no idea how you found it, it's so new! I love yours too :)
