INGLOT AMC pure pigment eyeshadow number 22 review,swatch and eye makeup look

INGLOT AMC Pure pigment eyeshadow looks like fairy dust in a jar,the first time I saw this baby I was smitten I had never seen a shadow quite as pretty...
Texture wise Inglot AMC pure pigment # 22 is very similar to MAC's Crush metal pigment.This particular pigment looks like flecks of purple gold duochrome.This kind of pigments need to be crushed with your eyeshadow brush and then blended to create a sheer to medium coverage when used dry.You can use these wet (just dampen your brush with drop of water).When used wet the intensity of the pigment really comes to life.It gives off a highly reflective metallic sparkle which comes of predominantly gold with just a hint of purple.When used with a base the pigment really pops!



2 grams of pigment comes in standard INGLOT screw top jar. The packaging is very sturdy and very functional.Just like every other Inglot products there are no names just impersonal numbers which do make it tough to remember your favorites.Priced at Rs 700/- these are more expensive than MAC pigments in terms of per gram cost, but as MAC pigment jars contian lot more product the overall cost of each MAC pigment jar works out higher than that of INGLOT pigment. 2 grams might not sound like a lot of product but trust me , you just need the tiniest bit of pigment and a little goes a long way.
Like all Inglot products this one too is paraben free and not tested on animals.

MAC Museum Bronze pigment review & swatches




Ever since I posted about my My MAC pigments and Paintpot samples haul, I was flooded with queries and review request for MAC's Museum bronze pigment. I finally decided to quit procrastinating and review this gorgeous pigment soon enough.

Pigments are the ultimate beauty multi-taskers and can be used as eye shadow, mixed with clear polish and used as nail varnish and some shades are also lip safe (not sure if Museum bronze is lip safe).

Launched as a part of MAC's Overrich collection / 2008,MAC describes Museum bronze as a Rich Taupe with Gold Pearl and is a Frost Finish.Personally I feel its a rich, shimmery,deep bronze gold metallic shade.The pigment has buttery smooth almost fluid texture.


The deep brown bronze gold metallic shade will look universally flattering on all skin tones, though warm skinned gals and duskier divas would totally love this one.On the lids it looks less bronze and more like antique gold shade. It has a beautiful metallic sheen and creates dimensional looks on your lids when you don't have time to do a full eye makeup with crease, contouring and blending.If you want to create sophisticate looks with this then use  a rich chocolate brown eyeshadow on the outer corner.

This is also perfect for teeming with rich colored eyeliners like navy, burgundy, emerald, turquoise or amethyst liners.The smooth texture & rich pigmentation mean that you don't need keep digging back and forth with your eyeshadow brush between your shadow pan and your lids. One single sweep will create perfect coverage on the lids.
