Someone please tell me why I am now obsessed with MAC Pigment samples and loose eyeshadows in little five gram jars? I have always had a fear of using loose eyeshadows and pigments...but I still always bought them. I have a few Bare Minerals loose eyshadows, MAC pigment samples, and various mulitpurpose minerals (eyeshadows) from mineral makeup companies.
I think I am slowly ridding myself of that fear.
On this past Thursday night I ordered some MAC pigment samples and I recieved them on Monday. Ok, super fast shipping. I ordered them from http://cherylsshinyeyes.ecrater.com/ This is the second time I've placed an order with her and I am pleased again.
Ok, so some pictures...all are done with a flash.



I'm going steal Pursebuzz's idea and use manicotti noodle trays to keep these in. http://www.beautyarchives.pursebuzz.com//?p=1539
I already bought the manicotti and everything...I just need to cook now!
Anyway, heres the look I did today with some of my new pigment samples.


I used Golders Green all over my lid, Tea Time in my crease, and Naked for a highlight. I wore MAC Margin blush and MAC Delish lipstick (first MAC item I purchased....ahh memories). I used UD 24/7 liner in Bourbon on my upper lash line.
I think next time I do this look I'll pass on the liner. I really need to get a brown mascara for when I wear brown eyeshadows.
You can still see a *little* bit of the L'Oreal HIP Kohl Powder on my waterline. I did a little test today before I put my contacts in. I like how it looks on my waterline but I don't think its good for contact lens wearers. I got a little powder on my eye and that made me tear up a little. It did last longer than MAC Feline Kohl Power Pencil, which is what I usually use on my waterline. I still need to try the HIP Kohl Powder as a regular liner on my lid, so I'll let you guys know.


Pretty look and great haul! I have some of those colors, I cannot get Viz a Violet to work for me. I love, love, love Tea Time but I never wear it, but since I am going to learn to embrace neutrals this year I am going to try to incorporate it into more looks. And man I love Golden Olive. Ok, I love almost all of them!! :) My name is Critty and I am a pigment addict.
