I love MAC, you know that if you've been here at least once. I've been using it since 1993. I say this as a lead in to the new Big Bounce cream eyeshadows, because it's a rare day when MAC does something that just doesn't seem to work.
It's also been mentioned here many times that I have oily eyelids and major makeup melt , so keep that in mind. But my fellow blogger Musings of a Muse had many of the same issues on her dry lids.
Big Bounce shadows are a thin whipped mousse . Swatched on my hand they look glorious and rich in pigment. On my eyes, both with and without base, I layered and layered ,waiting long for the product to dry in between and still came up with a sheer wash. Now MAC does say that they are sheer washes, buildable to medium. I got the sheer only. And they didn't last much at all, moved around the lid and streaked.
That said, The Mom used one , with her UD base and got more color than I did. She has oily lids too, but definitely had better results.
So if you're jonesing to try Big Bounce , maybe get the SA to test them on you first for a trial run.
