Makeup Must Have: Vanilla Pure Pigment by MAC

I have to say this is one of the few things I am obsessed with and have to force myself not to use repeatedly. As a highlight, under the brow and on the cheekbones this stuff is unreal. I love the look it has on dark skin also.

MAC describes the color as soft ivory white (frost) and I think they are so mistaken. Something like Copacabana by NARS is frosty. The Vanilla pigment has a real warmth to it. There is almost a golden whiteness to it, not a icy whiteness. Okay now I am sounding crazy, but you know what I mean.

I use the pigment in my cheeks tutorial video as a highlight if you are curious about the look of it on skin. I have it on under the brows and on the inner corner of my eyes in these random crazy pics. Excuse how I look, these photos were pulled from Facebook, lol.

Outside of this product, Hungry Heart by NARS is an equally gorgeous highlight powder.
