I could not just introduce the new M·A·C Flighty collection without mentioning the new star of the collection, maybe just star of all of the spring makeup to date, Big Bounce Shadows. But first, a bit about the collection as a whole.

Let your imagination take flight with caprice as your only guide. Float into a room with a step lighter than air. Elevate your state of mind with a high-altitude collection of sensually NEW spongy watercolour whipped mousse cream shadows in hues that fly higher than gravity’s rainbow. Soar sky-high with a flock of sixteen Free As Air shades that Up the Ante for fresh formula innovation in luminescent washes that build from sheer to medium easily. Eye plumage is playful with four LIMITED -EDITION shades of Zoom Lash Mascara certain to unleash a torrent of Tweets.Birds of a feather flock together – individually with colour uncaged…colour that sings!

You will love the Big Bounce Shadows as they glide on and stay in place with its soft wash of pure pigmented color. I say soft wash, as even the bright colors look like awash of color with its high shimmer quotient. I was afraid to apply as many shadows, whether powder, cream or gel, if they have shimmer, the shimmer inevitably moves from the eye. This is not the case with the Big Bounce shadows. First off, the consistency is a whipped mousse feel. It is touchable, spread able, yet it stays in place. The shimmer or color does not move until you remove it. For a real sheer, natural wash of color, apply with your fingers. For more ease of blending and to build up a color, use a shader brush, such as the M·A·C 242 brush, which is included in the collection.
