Quick Take: blends easily, highly pigmented, crease resistant, stunning, exotic
I own the RED pure pigments. I bought them a couple weeks ago. I just bought them online without any sample or anything. I am pretty familiar with loose eyeshadows, I have about thirty from other brands.
This Red look fantastic. I have the right tools and found no issue applying this. It blends really well end fits right in with my collection. I actually will buy some of these other colors, 100% for sure.
The size is actually pretty big, there is no way this will be used up within 5 years. I have a huge collection, all of mine are in a similar container, yet the product weight on this is MORE. I have never ran out of an eyeshadow in this loose powder style ever. I probably wear eyeshadow 5-6 days a week. I don't skimp out.
Use an eyemakeup remover to remove and it comes off. This is a lovely product! With a PRIMER I didn' see and creases.

I tend to stay away from loose shadows because i find them a bit messy, and unfortunately this one is quite messy. theres a lot of fallout and its quite difficult to blend, but the colors are so pigmented and beautiful that i dont mind the mess :)

Quick Take: highly pigmented
the color is very bright! However I guess im not good at blending but the eye shadow came out very blotchy since it is like a mineral powder texture.

Awesome color!
-07.05.12
Quick Take: fun, bright
I purchased the pure pigment in neon pink and am very happy with it. The color is VERY vibrant, but can also be toned down if you mix it with other eye shadow colors. I used it with Urban Decay Primer potion underneath and it lasted all day in hot weather, the color stayed true and did not need any touch ups.

When I got it I thought 'wow this is small' but, then I put it on and realized 'omg you only need a tiny bit for it to show. So don't let the size fool you. I've used it on my eye lids over eye shadow primer and it really pops.

Vibrant Colors!
-05.22.12
Quick Take: blends easily, highly pigmented
I have the Hot Pink pigment and I've never used a more "true to color" pigment like this one. And if you have a shadow base on, it goes on even more pigmented! The good thing about these powders is that you can control the amount of color you want. Go very light on the powder if you want a light shade and just keep applying to get it as dark as you'd like. A little really does go a long way here.

Great color pay-off
-04.26.12
Quick Take: highly pigmented
These Pigments have GREAT color payoff. I love it. Great for makeup artists . The only downfall is I noticed they stain the eyelid even with a primer. But I dont mind it since the color is so vibrant.

Pigment City!
-02.27.12
Quick Take: highly pigmented
Love that the pigment is hardcore straight color! My only complaint is that the product itself is a little gritty so you have to have a careful hand in the application of this product. It also helps if you have a tissue available to hold under your application spot to avoid transfer while applying. I also find putting on a setting spray helps with the transfer once complete. Love the product but it does take practice to get it right.

the violet pigment...
-02.24.12
Quick Take: impossible to get out of the container
The No. 14 color is not a bright violet color as pictured, but rather a fuschia color (looks more like how the No. 12 color appears in the picture). I would love to try it out and use it... unfortunately the 3 little holes in the top hardly let any of the powder out and I have barely been able get enough out to even cover one eye lid, no matter how much I have shaken it or tapped it against the counter upside-down.

Bright Pink & Orange
-01.30.12
Quick Take: highly pigmented
I loved the massive pigmentation of these powders. They are quite versatile and the colors are beautiful. However, because it is loose (and quite staining from the strong pigmentation) I found it messy. The bright pink is a very strong hot pink--highlighterish pink. The orange is a very strong bright orange. Not neon but very strong orange, like their powder blush #18.

I love this colour though it is not exactly like my other makeup forever. Its almost like its wet so I have to open it up all the way to use it. Maybe mine was defective. I thought it would be brighter as well but I ended up disappointed. Would make a great lipstick colour.

Really easy to work with and stays on well. The colors even stand out in club lighting and it will survive a night of dancing.
