New Permanent Mac Mineralize "Style Black" Eyeshadows Review and Swatches

Following on from my earlier post on the new Mac permanent* mineralize eyeshadow duos, here's a look at the new permanent* mineralize eyeshadow singles. (They're only permanent for 6 months, so really still limited edition, but less than other collections if that makes sense.) These but one are repromotes, first came out with the Style Black collection in 2009 (?) and that's when I purchased mine. Only Smutty Green is new, therefore please keep in mind that my older shadows might be a different texture, maybe even slighter different colours than the new ones.

And here they are (top to bottom, left to right): Smutty Green, Blue Flame, Cinderfella, Young Punk and Gilt By Association. They are all black based with different colour shimmer/pearl. When applied dry, there isn't a huge difference between then because you manily see the sheer black colour, but when applied wet, the colours really come through and these eyeshadows really come to life. I have swatched them both dry and wet for you, so be sure to have a look as they are gorgeous when used wet.

When used dry, there's definitely some fall out from these eyeshadows, but if you use them wet or on a very sticky base, the fall out is minimal. I know mineralize eyeshadows aren't for everyone, but I have to say that these are something different. I think at the very least worth checking out in person if you can. 

These mineralize eyeshadow duos cost £16.50 each and they are slightly larger than regular Mac eyeshadows at 2.2g each.
