Pigments are Eyeshadows but simply a loose form of it in intense colours. When you purchase regular eyeshadows from MAC, those are just pigments that have been pressed and packed together to make them easy for you to use as eyeshadows. The unique thing about buying loose pigments is that you’re not limited to ONLY using them as eyeshadows, you can use them for various other things! Always try a pigment first, without committing to buying the full size yet. There’s enough in the small size to use and decide if you like it and not much waste if you don’t.

| Very intense concentrated colours, these pigments |
As a metallic eyeshadow: Put the
pigment in a small pot and add a little drop of MAC’s Fix+ (if you have) or
simple water and apply wet to the eye. This method can uncover hidden colours
in the pigment and make more sheer pigments stronger.
As an eyeliner: Just as with the eyeshadow
process, mix the pigment in a pot, much heavier this time and apply wet to the
lashline with an eyeliner brush.
As a coloured mascara: Use disposable
mascara wands, dip them into a small pot
with the pigment inside and apply to the eyes.
As a nail polish: Pour a small amount
of your pigment onto a paper plate and pour out a similarly small amount of clear
nail polish and mix together, applying to your nails with nailbrush. Always
wipe your brush with nail polish remover so the pigment doesn’t dry up and
stick to your nail brush.
As a lipstick: You can apply pigments
to your lips by mixing them in with a clear lip gloss or a moisturizing lip
balm. Regular lipsticks can dry out your lips, but mixing a pigment in with
your regular lip moisturizer means you won’t be drying out your lips.
As a blush: Just pour a small amount
out onto a small pot or a small paper plate, dab your brush around in it and
apply lightly to the cheeks, that simply
As a highlighter: Apply a small
amount to a blush or contour brush and sweep lightly onto the cheeks, bridge of
the nose, collarbone and cleavage area.
Finally as a glowing skin: Take a
small amount of pigment, mix it in with your foundation and apply as normal.
The best benefit of using pigments is
the ability to create your own custom colours, just take two or three pigments,
mix them together and you’ll have your own custom colour. The combinations are
endless and you can then use them in any of the ways above and have a colour
made especially for you, by you that no one else is wearing! We all love custom
made and this time made easy by ourselves. Toodlers xoxo bynki
