Sweet Sienna is a pearly medium taupe pigment. This pigment has a buttery texture and applies smoothly both wet and dry. It can be little sheer when applied dry, but it brightens with a base under it. Wet, this pigment intensifies and gives the color a shiny metallic finish.

I don't know where to start with this piggie, it is massively well loved. It's a really unique taupe that compliments most skin tones and I was really lucky to be able to pick it up at my local CCO. I wear this only on my eyes, typically as the focus of my eye look. I always wear it either on the lid or in my crease. It could also make a fun eyeliner color.

This pigment is a fantastic neutral, and pairs well with metallics, blacks and other browns. I like to pair it with Carbon mostly since this neutral really steals the show on its own.

This pigment is definitely on the great side of MAC pigments, it has a nice texture and applies easily both wet and dry. It blends out well and can be as sheer or intense as you want it to be with a little work. The question is if you can hunt down this piggie for a reasonable price because it is so pretty and limited edition that it fetches a pretty penny. I really hope that MAC re-releases this pigment at some point in the future so that MAC addicts can get their hands on it once again.

Until next time!
