Cham Pale A natural champagne-coloured range that looks amazing on darker skin tones or when teamed with a tan. From to, Cham Pale will fail to disappoint on every level. For an intense eye colour, try the collection’s; a cream-based colour that paints on smoothly and dries quickly for a vibrant finish.

Showcase a flawless complexion that contains the ingredients to make it a more permanent fixture with this genius offering. Go glam with Gaga! MAC has made yet another fabulous celebrity endorsement in the shape of pop queens, Lady Gaga and Cyndi Lauper. The lip range encompasses the characteristic looks of the distinctive duo, with Gaga’s products achieving a pink pout and Lauper’s products achieving a red pout (rather similar to ). What’s more, proceeds go towards the MAC Aids Fund, so give a little back and embrace Viva Glam.

The finished product Bourjois So Rouge lipstick has become one of my favourite products to replicate the English Rose look. So Rouge looks darker than when it is applied; I find you need a few coats to attain a real red pout. It glides on smoothly and softly, with a really moisturising texture, that makes you want to smack your lips together! It offers a matte finish that isn’t garish but exudes old-school glamour. If you prefer a layer of gloss on top, why not add a slick of Bourjois’s Eau De Gloss in Framboise Glacee? It serves to accentuate the colour to the max!

On a longevity scale of 1 to 10, I would give this lipstick a 7. It can easily wear off when sipping on drinks, but usually stays put if left alone.

The gloss however, like most glosses, doesn’t boast great staying-power. You’ll find yourself re-applying several times throughout the night (and I eventually gave up). Yet, the combination of the two Bourjois offerings do make for a great pout; I would definitely recommend!

Transfer focus from the lips to the eyes this season with Pigment Pots Show-stopping eye colours are all over the catwalks this season. Pigment pots are great for creating a bold eye that stands out from the crowd. The loose powder, when applied to the eyelid, ensures a more intense flash of colour than many pressed eyeshadows fail to achieve. They come in a range of colourful shades that may look more eighties’-child-resurrected than a fierce statement look, but by using tutorials (see below) when administering your eye colour you can’t go far wrong. Here are three of the best brands: 1. ‘s pigment pots are by far the best in class.

Not only do they offer an impressive 80 colours to choose from, but their multi-faceted ‘dazzle’ technology’ serves to supply additional impact to the eye. Remember to use Barry M’s as a base (also available in a range of colours) before applying the Dazzle Dust. Command the crowd’s attention with key colours such as Green Parrot and Kingfisher. Combine colours, as shown in the tutorial below for a breathtaking effect. Or play it safe with Fawn and Ice Pink to maintain a natural finish. The possibilities really are endless. Although slightly more pricey than Barry M’s offering, Pigment Pots compensate with a wealth of alternative colours and a longer lifespan, due to the pots’ bigger size.

My particular favourites are Magenta Madness and Neo-Orange which are reminiscent of holidays to more tropical climes – a pick-me-up that is much needed during these long Winter months. Optimise your optic power with this range of natural eyeshadow powders. Less garish than MAC, pigment pots offer more subtle colours which still boast the wow-factor.

As suggested, green and hazel eye colours should opt for the purple based tones, blue eyes look striking when framed by bronzed shadows, whilst brown eyes ‘pop’ with blue and green hues. Telltale tip: Use a to apply the pigment powder. Due to the pigment’s high concentration, you only need use a small amount in order to attain the signature colour you desire. To avoid powder landing on cheeks, exercise good control of your brush and use a ‘pressing’ motion. As an extra precaution always make up eyes before proceeding with skin coverage and foundation.

Charlize Theron flaunts her flawless complexion as a result of priming It has become commonplace for many party-girls to fall into the trap of simply slapping on their foundation without a thought towards priming their skin beforehand. However, this is one of the most important steps in make-up application, serving to smooth out the skin and provide a perfect canvas for painting on your face, not only with foundation, but eyeshadow, blusher and bronzer as well. It is simply not enough to cleanse, tone and moisturise before applying your products – be sure to prep with a primer from now on and ensure your make-up does not flee further than your face all night long! Popular Primers Many reputed make-up brands offer their own skin primer. And both offer colourless primers which are absorbed easily and efficiently into the skin.

Their composition of waxes, polymers and silicones smooths out problem areas and leaves them feeling silky soft. Alternatively, tinted primers, such as that offered by, can even-out discolouration and redness of the skin. To ensure longevity in the lip department use a lip primer, tailored to anchor lip colour to the spot – and offer an effective primer for your pout. How to apply After cleansing, toning and moisturising, use a five-pence-piece-sized amount of primer and apply evenly to the facial area, concentrating on the parts which exhibit scarring and/or lines. Let the primer sink in for five minutes, then continue to apply the contents of your make-up bag as normal.

Tell-tale tip: To ‘hold’ make-up in place that little bit more, dust a little pressed powder, in a matching colour, over your foundation with a powder brush. The dryness of the powder, coupled with the moisturising effect of the primer, can balance skin oil levels and guarantees the prevention of ‘slipping’.

Hi IMBBians, Hope you guys are fine and in good health. I think everyone here loves a bit of colour on their eyes, even those who are not comfortable using dark or bright colours on their eyes do make it up by using warm neutral shades. Four years back when I entered the world of eye makeup, I bought a warm neutral shade from Maybelline and used it for nearly 3 years. Then I moved on further to explore more shades in my comfort zone and bought my first Mac eye shadow. Today I bring you my first Mac pigment, so read on further to see its performance. Pigment is a highly concentrated loose colour powder that contains ingredients to help it adhere to the skin.

Create a subtle wash of colour or an intense effect. Does not streak or cake. Easy to blend and long-lasting. Please note: Pigments are sold by weight not volume. Containers can appear to be less than full due to settling of the product. Ingredients: My take on the MAC rose pigment: The pigment comes in a small transparent plastic jar with a velvety matte black screw cap which is quite sturdy.

There is a small plastic cover inside to protect the pigment from spilling when you open the black cap. I personally feel there should have been a sieve-like cap for controlled application of the product. The jar is enclosed in a black outer cover which has the detailed information regarding the product. It also has a small round open space in the middle through which we can see the bottle inside and hence the shade. The packing is very strong and can be easily carried around without the worry of spilling the contents. The shade is a beautiful deep metallic rose with gold flecks, these pigments are loose glitter-like powder with intense pigmentation.

They are not finely milled powder, a little coarse to look upon but not in texture. They are quite smooth texture-wise and very light-weight. It actually looks like the glitter powders I used to play with, when I was young for certain art and craft classes, but they were coarse in texture of course.

I usually prepare my eyes first with a primer or an eye shadow base, then I work on my crease and blend it well, then apply a base colour on my lid either cream or light pink, at last I put the pigment all over my lid area. I soak my brush in eye drops and then pick up the pigment to apply on my lids, if you have any other medium like Fix+ to use the pigmentation, that is also fine. It is quite easy to apply according to the intensity you like, just soak the brush with required quantity of eye drops or Fix+to pick up the pigment, if there is excess moisture it tends to get watery on your eye lid, so just be careful there. It is also easy to blend the pigment, so I just give a light blend on the outer corners of the lid with the crease colour that I used so that the line does not stand out sharp. You can expect certain amount of fallout during application due its powdery nature and if excess pigment is picked up by the brush there is a tendency to clump together giving an uneven finish. So it is always better to do your eye makeup first while using pigments and then the rest of your face makeup. I also tried to apply this on its own without a water base, but it gave a very messy, uneven finish on my eyes and the true intensity of the colour never showed up but it can be used in this manner for a sheer and soft look.

It gives a pure metallic finish on your eyes when used with a medium but if you use on its own it gives a shimmery sparkly look on your eyes. It also has very intense pigmentation and stays smooth on your eyes without any fading for a very long period as it stayed on my eyes for more than 7 hours and there was no fading or visible creasing, it just stayed put and I am really impressed with its staying power. It is always best to use a primer before you apply a pigment to avoid creasing and for a long-lasting effect. There is absolutely no difficulty in removing the pigment also, it can be removed even with plain water. I feel this shade is suitable for all complexions and is great for a party look rather than an every day wear. It is quite intense and your eyes will definitely stand out.

Its particularly awesome for Indian outfits, a beautiful colour that merges with our traditional saree and salwars. The shade really compliments my NC 30-35 skin tone and overall it is a product that stands up to its claims even though it has its cons.

This pigment can also be used with a lip gloss to give a rose gold frosty effect on your lips or on your cheeks to give a little illumination along with a blush-like effect. Pros of Mac Pigment- Rose. The beautiful metallic rose shade is flattering on every skin tone. The smooth texture of the pigment gives intense pigmentation when used with a medium and provides an even finish when used in proper quantity. The texture looks very coarse but actually its quite smooth and soft in nature. They do not irritate your eyes in any manner, even though there is immense fallout during application. It is very light-weight, even if you layer, it never feels heavy.

A tiny amount is only required to cover your eyes because of its intense pigmentation and because of this the jar can be used for a very long time. The staying power is amazing as it stays on for more than 7 hours without creasing or fading. The pigment can also be used in various other ways like a lip colour, blush or even a nail paint. The packing is quite strong and travel friendly so there is no cause for any spilling. The quantity provided is worth the price as it will last you forever.
