Are they just loose eyeshadows? Is there any specific application technique? Super thank u :)
 
There very powerful colours, so you get more colour on a photo etc as the flash light can take the colour out of some products if the pigments low.

Use like a normal shadow, and apply to lips or cheeks.

Mix with water for a deeper colour or to use as an eyeliner or cream blusher.

Add to a teeny amount of vaseline (or apply direct to skin and apply pigment over) to pigment and mix and apply to lids or cheeks.

Or add to lipgloss for using on lips.

Thank u very much Kate, and just another question, would u use pigments for a day make- up, and brides as well? Or is it more for catwalk and photo shoot?

Thank u again :)

For brides I tend to stick with benefit or smashbox as the colours are subtle, exposure proof and last. I spray sephoras fix it over the skin as a precaution.

The pigments I tend to keep for things requireing an OTT look. Not saying that you cant use the pigments I just find they dont stay as long as cream shadows or powder shadows. Sometimes you can get pigment droppin throughout the day onto the cheeks or if used with vaseline or water they are prone to creasing in hot conditions. It dosnt happen all the time but the fact it can happen is what puts me off using them for a look that needs to last the entire day.
