Product:
MAC Silver Pigment (not to be confused for their Platinum shade as that one it even brighter than Silver) is slight wax based pigment due to the binding oils they use in the MAC pigment formula. This shade applies smooth on the skin and eyes out of the jar and intensifies when applied wet.

Mehron Metallic Powder in Silver is a relatively pure pigment with not wax binder to be seen compared to MAC's formula. But the pigmentation is mush more smooth and strong both as a dry wash or applied with a damp brush. This product was designed to make metallic body paint and to be use with a mixing medium. I found this one looks brighter when applied wet/

Colour:
MAC Silver Pigment & Mehron Silver Pigment use the same aluminum ingredient to make this colour. The shades are identical!

Wear: on these won without any primer at most you get 3-4 hours. Both need a base and/or a mixing medium to get them to stay on the skin.eyes.
