MAC Mineralize Skin
Finishes are a cult product in the beauty world. Whether it's people
loving the MSF natural for setting foundation, or people adoring the
MSF's for highlighting I honestly believe that everyone has at the very
least heard of the beauties.
When I decided to invest in one of the MSF products, I opted for Lightscapde. From what I'd seen it was a great highlight for the paler skin and was slightly more subtle that the raved about Soft and Gentle.
The Mineralize Skin Finish in Lightscapade is sold as a soft candlelit beige with multidimensional shimmer in the form of a velvet soft powder with a high metallic frost finish. In the pan it looks like a creamy/ivory shimmer base with pastel colours running through the baked powder.
It comes off beautifully on the skin and can be applied subtly or built up to a more dramatic finish. I've used it with just about every brush I have from the ELF Studio Stippling Brush to the Real Techniques Contour brush. I've found that it lasts all day on the tops of my cheeks or wherever I place it but it does being to fade after 6 or so hours wear.

Not only is this a brilliant cheek highlight but it works great as a highlight on the eye and as a great all over lid colour.To build up a more high shine finish I have used this with a wet brush and patted it all over the lid. It stayed in place amazingly well, and the foiled effect finish was gorgeous.
Overall, I would highly recommend this for those pale girls out there. For people with a deeper skin tone, I would say try Soft and Gentle or maybe even Gold Deposit. If the formula of those, matches this beaut then they will be fab for anyone.
