i enjoy using the pigments so much. i recently tried using them with this water base mixing medium on my eyes and it just made my eyes pop even more than usual. and i love all the different colors and textures that the pigments come in. i will definitely continue using these in the future.10/17/2007

    The Eye Shadow of the Pros

    by sugarpixy (7 reviews)
    Here is the deal on these little guys, about $20 bucks a pop this jar of ultra fine highly concentrated color is not for everyone but shoud be! you can do anything with these and apply them in a dozen ways all with diffrent effects. but with any shadow you need a base..

November 30, 2007, 3:21 am Here is the deal on these little guys, about $20 bucks a pop this jar of ultra fine highly concentrated color is not for everyone but shoud be! you can do anything with these and apply them in a dozen ways all with diffrent effects. but with any shadow you need a base.. Powder wont stick to bear skin so be sure you use a primer on your lid first. This jar is enough pigment to last even a pro forever and you dont want to drag the whole jar around with you or let it get contaminated so when you purchase it get a sample jar or two to go with it, scoop a bit of product in to the smaller jar and keep that in your purse or make up case, you can use a brush to apply this or your finger, what you want to do it is just take the dust that settles on the lid of the jar and glide it on to your lid, a little bit for a hint of color or pack it on for high a more vivid shade or apply wet for a compleatly diffrent effect, all of the colors will flawlessly blend together and the shades and looks you can create with multiple colors are endless.This product is for people who love make up as an art and there is no limit to what you can do with these pure color jars and will put ANY other eye shadow to shame if you take the time to learn how to use them, and once you master them you will be hooked and want every beautiful color they make. They are worth every penny. November 30, 2007, 3:21 am

November 25, 2007, 5:30 pm i'm not sure what's up with these other reviews... i have been using MAC pigments for over 3 years now, and i adore them. they are probably some of my favorite items in my makeup toolbox. they are CHEAP for the amount of pigment that comes in the container -- when i purchase them, i always have the MAC salesperson throw in an empty container that they use for samples, so that i can just work with a small pinch of pigment at a time. i suppose the pigments can be messy if you don't open the jar very carefully. these things last FOREVER and you can use them on your eyes (after applying a base, of course), on cheekbones as a highlighter, in lipgloss, in nail polish... just about anything! pigments have the highest color concentration and you can do just about anything you want with them... if you're creative :) November 25, 2007, 5:30 pm

    Simply the best!

    by Toofacedgirl (11 reviews)
    I am a MAC pigment addict. They have so many colors and there are so many possibilities with each one. Everyone and anyone should be able to find one they like. Vanilla pigment is one I would definitely recommend. January 30, 2008, 10:28 am

    Pretty but messy!

    Ive tried countless pigments and love the colors but my main complaint, the reason that I dont use them too often, is that they are messy.

January 28, 2008, 5:45 pm Ive tried countless pigments and love the colors but my main complaint, the reason that I dont use them too often, is that they are messy. I am accident prone and have spilled them into the sink, and the loose flakes seem to get into my eyes and irritate them also. I am a member of another makeup community-MUA and found someone there who was able to press all my favorite pigments into eyeshadow pans and now I am very happy with them! My fav colors are vanilla, coco, cocoa beach, golders green, sunpepper, and steel blue, but there are so many more out there to try!! January 28, 2008, 5:45 pm

    Well worth the money

I don't know how I managed before having these pigments. Sweet Sienna, Your Ladyship, Dark Soul, and Mauvement are all must haves.

    I'm in trouble!

    I got a little sample tube in a holiday bag of this stuff, and already I am so interested in owning one in every shade.

    Pigments are a must have!

    by natalierb (159 reviews)
    Mac pigments are a must have for anyone who loves makeup. Depending on the color, you can use it as an eyeshadow, blush, highlighter, mix it with gloss, even nail polish. The color payoff is better than the powder eyeshadow, and one container lasts forever. Completely worth the $20! April 23, 2008, 12:28 pm

    THIS IS A MUST-HAVE!

    by calicokitty (158 reviews)
    After trying my first pigment I was hooked. I now have over 30 colors and they all have a purposeful use - some for adding into nail polish, some as eye shadow, some to highlight, and others to mix with moisturizers to add a glow to my face. Indispensable asset to your train case! December 18, 2007, 7:37 pm
