What MAC says: Purplish-blue with blue pearl and a velvet finish.

What I say: Swatched, it is exactly what the MAC website describes. However, when applied over a cream base or heavily packed onto the lid, the color is dark navy blue and loses the purple tinge.

How to wear it: Packed on the lid and blended out into the crease for a dark blue smokey eye. It is also a good alternative to black on the lash line if you have brown eyes, as it compliments your eye color.

Is it worth it? Yes, if you are looking for a dark, almost navy color. It has a great pigmentation and is easy to work with.
