You can use an empty sample jar to catch and save the excess product. The MAC Paint tubes can ooze a bit the first time you open them.If there’s a bright eyeshadow that you wish was more wearable, try applying it on top of Bamboom (it tends to tone down other colors).Bamboom has a tendency to pull orange on some skin tones, so you may want to swatch it before bringing it home.For a quick day look, I’ll apply and blend Bamboom all over my lids with a finger, line my upper lash and water lines with a brown or black pencil, and add a couple coats of mascara.Looks fabuloso worn under browns and khakis like Soba, Soft Brown, Golden Olive and Sumptuous Olive.

Works well alone or as a base for other shadows.A soft and creamy, warm orangey brown eyeshadow with subtle golden pearl.With the missing piece of the puzzle found, all was right again in the world. There it was - a color that combined a creamy formula with the golden brown color and satiny finish of MAC Soba, and the warm, orangey tones of Soft Brown.īack at the house, I gingerly set Bamboom down between Soft Brown and Soba on the counter, and they smiled (sort of). I held the tube of MAC Paint in Bamboom ($18.50) aloft like a flaming sword! “Where have you been all my life?!” “Eureka!” I roared in the middle of Macy’s. Sh*t was about to hit the fan when I picked up a tube of Bamboom. Right then I knew I had to find a way to lift their spirits, so I hopped in my car and drove to the nearest MAC counter.įrantically, I swiped and swatched, looking for the right friend for my shadows. Have you ever heard your MAC brown eyeshadows cry? In a word: heartbreaking. “If it were a cream shadow instead of a powder,” they said, “you could even layer us on top of it.” They told me how they felt that something was missing in their lives. “We need a buddy,” they whined, both on the verge of tears, “like, I don’t know, a color that combines the best of both of our shades.”
