Second, they have a great selection of colours to choose from and are always adding limited edition colours to the range so that even those of us who have been collecting for ages don't run out of new ones to try! There are many reasons for this.įirst - quality! They are highly pigmented, show up true (with a primer) and will last all day long. I've tried so many different brands of eyeshadow I've lost count, and I always return to MAC.

With none of these species in flower, I encouraged the chafer to cling to my finger with its grappling-hook-like feet and relocated it to a winter-flowering honeysuckle.M.A.C Eye Shadow’s highly pigmented powder applies evenly and blends well.

As their name suggests, they are particularly fond of roses, but will also feed on elder, viburnum, hogweed and soft fruit, consuming pollen, nectar and petals. Unfortunately, this meant that the beetle was out of sync with the flowering stage of its typical food plants. The average daytime temperature in Langstone in March is 11C, but high pressure had brought a lengthy spell of sunshine, with the temperature peaking at 18C, triggering the beetle’s premature emergence. Like many insect species, rose chafers have been affected by climate change. One had been seen squashed on a path near Reading, and there were another three in a conservatory in Colchester, believed to have emerged from a pot recently brought in from the garden, where they had likely overwintered as pupae. Posting on the Natural History Museum’s UK biodiversity Facebook page, I discovered that mine wasn’t the only unseasonable sighting.

The sun-loving adults usually emerge between late May and mid-June, so it was a surprise to find one in the garden more than a month earlier than in previous years.
