The MAC In Extra Dimension Eye Shadows Are Becoming Permanent Fixtures in Spacetime

April 24th, 2015 by Karen 15 Comments

The new MAC Extra Dimension Eye Shadows ($22 each), coming May 7 to MAC stores, counters and online

Apologies for just powering my way through this quick look at the new MAC Extra Dimension Eye Shadows, babe. I’ve got a hot date with two clear drawers from The Container Store (yup, operation Get My Sh*t Together is currently underway).

First, I’m so happy to see these being added to the MAC permanent line! I’ve loved ’em for years and have long hoped this would happen.

See…? Sometimes makeup dreams really do come true. 🙂

These long-wearing eyeshadows (I get 8-10 hours) have a super soft, almost creamy formula and come in various levels of shimmer, all with negligible (barely any) fallout. I think they’re abso-friggin-lutely heaven, and I’m sure I’ve gushed about them before…

  • The MAC Alluring Aquatic Collection Extra Dimension Eye Shadows and Pearlglide Intense Eye Liners Are Off the Starboard Bow
  • Guess What? Your Eyeshadow Can Double as a Highlighter
  • Iridescent and Opalescent, MAC’s New Extra Dimension Eye Shadows Illuminate Lids Here in Our Dimension Too

If some of the shades below look familiar, you may be recalling them from past collections like last year’s Alluring Aquatic.

Here are pics and swatches of 16 of the 18 shades (not shown: Smoky Mauve and Silver Sun)…

Look for the MAC Extra Dimension Eyeshadows to arrive via wormhole, i.e., a shortcut through spacetime, May 7 at MAC counters, stores, international space stations and online. Make a note to check ’em out because they’re awesome.

Your friendly neighborhood beauty addict,

Karen

P.S. I really enjoyed this movie, and based on the fact that you and I like many of the same things, I bet you will too. —> The Age of Adaline

Blake Lively is GORGEOUS in it. I spent the entire movie just, like, in awe of her hair.

    These swatches are gorgeous, but Blake totally steals the show! I can’t remember the last time I went to the movie theater though. Oh, wait! It was last summer to the $1 shows with my kiddos 🙂

    I’m so happy about Fathom’s Deep. I missed it the first time around. Really, though, I want one of each.

    Gorgeous, but way too expensive for me. =[ So many of them look just perfect though!

    Grand Galaxy is beautiful! I don’t remember if it was previously released but I think it was and I was never able to track it down…

    Hope you’re feeling a little better, Karen!

    I have a couple of these and think they’re great so it’s nice to see them added to the permanent line. Although I’m most excited for what I hope is in store like the skin finish powders and blushes becoming perm too. Now those I LOVE!

    I’m not a fan of Blake Lively, but really, a chance to ogle makeup through the century? Count me in!

    I just got home from The Longest Ride, but I so want to see The Age of Adaline as well, I love Blake and have since the Traveling Pants. This looks gorgeous!

    Also kind of excited about these shadows, i’ve never grabbed one, I don’t own a lot of mac shadows, though I like the ones I have (I use vex a lot, and a coral matte). Sea Worship and Ready To Party look like they’d be colors I’d use. I tend to mostly use Urban Decay naked palettes and Bobbi Brown shadows, though I do like pops of light colors. My eyes are incredibly dark and I’m too prone to dark circles for me to use many darker shades.

    Oh yay, swatches already, this is awesome! I wasn’t expecting this so fast,so wooot! All the colors look great. I definitely want to get my hands on some of the shades. Grand Galaxy and Sweet Heat look really pretty.

    These are really pretty. And the indecisive little girl in me is, yet again, indecisive about which one to purchase. #makeupJunkieProblems

    So many pretty colors! If they’re going to be permanent I guess there’s no rush to buy them all at once. It’s going to be hard to decide which color or colors to start with. How would you compare these to the NARS dual-intensity shadows?

    Oh no! Right after the big VIB Rouge sale in which I spent way, way, way too much. I’m supposed to be on a No Buy right now. But reading back over this I see that these are going to be permanent so thankfully no rush to grab any. Although I should still stalk the Mac counters and stores and play with them right??? I’m only allowing myself to buy two things from the Nars Summer collection so these will just have to wait. So pretty though.

About Makeup and Beauty Blog

Welcome to Makeup and Beauty Blog
Hi there! I’m Karen, your friendly neighborhood beauty addict, and I’m a Bay Area girl who hoards brown eyeshadow and covets coral lipstick. Every morning, I wake up and say, “I’m going to do something other than a smoky eye today.” Then…I end up doing a smoky eye anyway (most days). When I’m not putting on makeup, taking pictures of makeup or writing about makeup, which I’ve been doing daily since 2007 (!), you’ll find me hanging out with my hubby (“El Hub”), my four-year-old daughter (Connor Claire) and my torbie girl cat (Pretty Girl Rosie, a.k.a. PGR).
