What’s an unsung makeup hero? For me, it’s an usually underrated makeup morsel, a long-term collection product that scoots under the radar screen of many makeup enthusiasts however routinely rocks my world. The long-running Unsung Heroes series features a few of my favorites.
Cork isn’t flashy, however it’s a damned great workhorse shade. It’s one of those shadows that’s simple to miss when you’re browsing those tiered MAC shadow displays.
The Satin surface is totally key. It makes Cork a fantastic shift shade. It can double as a matte eyeshadow as well as deepen the crease, as well as since it has a hint of shimmer, it has a bit more character than a fundamental matte. as well as it’s much easier to blend.
Cork in my crease as well as along my lower lash line (my lid shade is MAC Club)
Cork may fool you at very first since it can truly look like a directly up matte, however if look closely, you’ll see the tiniest twinkle (it’s barely there!).
I like utilizing Cork in my crease when my lid color is a awesome or neutral shade, as well as I believe it’s gorgeous with blues, greens, purples as well as grays.
Herregud! try it with MAC Club on your lids one of these days. That’s what I’m using in these pics. The two are like Shakespearean sonnets together. MAC Greensmoke too.
Cork is likewise my trick weapon when I look in the mirror in the morning, as well as my lids look more hooded than usual. The neutral-ness (?) of the brown sculpts a deeper shadow in my crease than warmer shades like MAC Soft brown or Saddle.
By the way, it’s likewise darker than MAC Soba, which is one more neutral brown MAC Satin eyeshadow I utilize a great deal as a crease color. I’ll alternating between the two, however I select Cork more frequently when I’m using a super saturated lid color since it’s easier for me to shift a strong lid shade to a more medium-toned brown like Cork (the gradient isn’t as remarkable as going to something lighter).
Wearing Cork in my crease as well as along my lower lash lines
Just a warning! — on some people, Cork can turn orange. If golden browns go orange on you, swatch it at a counter first. however if you don’t online or work near a counter, likewise FYI, Cork is offered on the MAC website as a single pan refill for $6 (you don’t get the black case, though). Stick it in an eyeshadow palette, as well as you’re on your merry way.

Last thing, if you’re a redhead, Cork works fantastic as a brow filler.
