In Detail MAC Vibe Tribe Collection Bronzing Powder Refined Golden Review, Swatches and My Experience

The packaging of the Mac vibe tribe collection is absolutely beautiful and luxurious. I haven’t seen any other brand making such a beautiful packaging. Although I went to buy foundation in the Mac store but I was sold out completely at the packaging of the Mac vibe tribe collection. Each and every product shouted out loud to me. I loved the packaging of this collection so much that I wanted to buy each and everything from this collection.

The collection is very beautiful with lovely packaging. (Now I was clicking this pic for you all and the mua at the Mac store came and told me that I am not allowed to click the pictures and she told me to delete it). She just sounded extremely rude. Weird mua and rude behaviour 🙁 The bronzer comes in a cute little compact pan like packaging. It also has a small mirror inside, which I like. It has a tight lid so it closes with a satisfying click. The packaging is overall very nice, handy, lightweight and travel friendly.

Now coming on the shade selection they had 3 bronzers. Which is more than enough for me as it is a limited collection. Powder bronzers came in 3 different variants, one was with a matte finish, the other one had satin finish to it and the third one has a bit of golden shimmer in it. So as I have Lott of matte bronzers. I decided to give golden refined – shimmer finish bronzer a try. Now although I loved the satin one as well but the matte and the satin was light for me so the colour did not show up that well on my skin and this one had golden shimmer and was a bit dark as compared to the matte and the satin ones. So I decided to pick this one

Now to just let you know a little bit more about this Mac vibe tribe collection it has 2 blushes one is reddish pink blush and the other one is coral. Although I wanted to pick the blush as well but the blush was sold out.

It has 4 creamy lipsticks and 4 glossy lipsticks
Patent Polish Lip Pencils
2 eyeshadow palate. (Quads)
1 brush
2-3 nail paint (I am not sure about how many the nail paint they have).
And last but not the least they have 3 bronzers.(matte/satin/and one with shimmer.)

This Mac refined golden bronzer is dark brown woody kind of colour which is perfect for contouring. The bronzer carries a bit of shimmer in it which I totally love. The shimmer present in the bronzer is just perfect. It’s neither too loud nor very settled. This shade suits me perfectly. I like my bronzers to be a bit dark in colour. The bronzer is extremely pigmented, in one swipe you get quite opaque colour on the skin. It’s super-duper soft and satiny. It doesn’t feels chalky at all. I love to wear this product at nighttime when I am going out for some parties or attending some night time weddings. It’s just a perfect bronzer for me. It gives me very sculpted look, and adds a beautiful dimension to my face.

Coming on to the last Part of the review that is the staying power of the Mac vibe tribe golden refined bronzer. The bronzer stayed on my combination to oily skin for good 5-6 hours after that it started fading a bit. Usually because by that time my skin begins to get a little oily.

3) availability

MBF Advices

1) Take the powder on a small angular or a contoured brush and blend the product with short strokes.
2) Take a small quantity initially and then start contouring do not layer the product at once or you may end up applying more than what you need.
3) Check the shade in a natural light before you buy it.
4) Need not apply this particular shade in a day time as it has a bit of shimmer in it and may look too loud. Personally I find this shade is particular suitable for studio lightings or party time outings.
