Surprise surprise, MAC's A Tartan Tale launched today and of course I had to hit up MAC to get some pigments. Lucky for you, I have pigment swatches and comparisons for you today and not like 2 weeks from now. I'm such a slacker... with good reason, I promise!

I really thought that The Family Crest would be similar or in the same color family as MAC's Style Black Gilt by Association MES. Not at all. FC is a plummy brown with bronze and violet pearl while GBA is a glittering antique gold with a warm bronze undertone.
What did you end up hauling from this collection?
Disclosure: I bought everything featured.
Update: Here's swatches in natural light.
i see this and get upset! My GBA went missing after one use and i LOVED it =[ lol but i did get the pigment haven't gotten to use them tho
ReplyDeleteBeverly- I can't wait to see your handiwork with these pigments!
ReplyDeleteYep the 2 colors are not even close to the same. Family Crest is a gorgeous color. If it was in an eyeshadow form, I'd snatch it up in a heartbeat. Awesome swatches Lindsey!
ReplyDeleteI didnt get anything but I love that Family Crest pigment so I might need to get myself some.
ReplyDeleteFamily Crest is such a nice color!:D
