~Please explain MAC Pigments vs. Reflects? ~

Don't mean to be a bother, but I have one last question about the MAC glitters.

Please explain the difference between MAC Pigments and Reflects?
In your opinion, what are these products best used for?

I don't understand the differences (or similarities)?

Thank you, again, and I promise to stop asking so many questions (lol)!

Anything described as Reflects is a glitter rather than a fine milled powder. Loose glitters are not eye safe.

like Caffn8me said, the Reflects are glitters, yet they are much finer than other glitters. The particles are smaller and they appear white at first but then reflect (thus the name) the color that is part of the name (red, gold, pearl, etc.) They are really pretty and while they are not eye safe, they are pretty swept lightly across the cheek bones or as a nail polish!

Great explanations!

THANK YOU VERY MUCH!

I understand the differences a little better now.
