Holy mother of god highlight, its like almost spotting an unicorn on the road, like it is to find MAC Mineralize Skinfinish Soft & Gentle in stock at a MAC store, here in India. So finally searching for it for over a year, I have this little pan full of unicorn baby teary glitter 🙂

Shade: MAC describes it as a ‘gilded peach bronze’ colour, which I agree, but I also spot a hint of ‘champagne’ there. To me it is visibly cool and kind of pink under toned. Not very much but a little bit similar to mac’s shell.

Packaging: I am in freaking love with the packaging, I love the revamped packaging that mac has given to the mineralise range, much better than the not-so-attractive older packaging. The new one has a really strong and sturdy magnetic closure. All I would ask for is a mirror with the compact, as it is very handy of highlighters to come with an inbuilt mirror. Looks chic overall <3

Texture & Formula : To touch in the pan, MAC Soft and Gentle feels firm yet soft, on the skin it goes on more shimmery than metallic. But one good thing is that the visible chunks of glitter doesn’t spray all over the face. It stays intact only in the area of application, for a swatch is goes on non-patchy and smooth in a swipe. It is like bam bam on pigmentation goes on really crisp and opaque shiny in one go, no layering needed. One more thing to remember is, soft and gentle ain’t for the faint hearted. It is high shine, and really HIGHLIGHTING.

Staying power:  Soft and Gentle stays on for almost 5 hours, but in humid weather, it stays on for a little less time.

Overall Thoughts:

MAC Mineralize Skinfinish Soft and Gentle is a really versatile product, along with a face highlight it can also be multi tasked as an eyeshadow or a body highlight, for the new trend of strobing. I guess soft and gentle is a really good option. With the revamped packaging that it comes in, looks very appealing.

The colour is an universal one, and works as a perfect highlight shade for an array of skin tones. Overall soft and gentle is really worth the hype, the only thing I dislike is that it doesn’t have a mirror in the compact. It seems way to fragile and delicate, can shatter down easily as it is a baked product.

Rating -4.5/5
