Well...you all were right...I am now hopelessly addicted to Pigments :p I bought Melon and Golden Olive and got samples online of Vanilla, Fairylite, and kitschmas.

I have used them mostly on my eyes...okay ONLY on my eyes so far. I am scared to branch out

I am using the 242 brush with them right now. I wondered if that is the best choice? What do you all use?

I cant wait for D'Bohemia pigments.....as much as I love the ones I have, I think I will be purchasing all 3

242 is a great brush. I also use 224 a lot on my creases and for blending. I like to pack it on with 213 or 217. HTH

Im getting into Mineral makeup and especially pigment eyeshadows. But right now i only have the 213 for lid application,but im quite sure its not firm enough for pigments or minerals.

Im looking for a brush that can really PACK in pigments and will deliver bold vibrant colours!

im thinking of either the 242 or 239 ... im open to other suggestions too!

I use the 242 to pack on colour. It is the easiest brush, in my opinion, to use for pigments. I use the 239 for a general sweep of colour on the lid. I love both of them for different reasons.

242 is also my fave for pigments. I just recently got it, and of course now I'm kicking myself for having waited so long. I love it for all my e/s really!

I use one comparable to Mac's 239 & it works great. Of course, I always use my pigments wet so the color payoff is amazing & you don't have to "pack" the color on, just sweep it across.

I have tried a lot of brushes and the best I have found for using wet pigments on the lid is the Loew Cornell Maxine's Oval Mop 1/4 inch. I got mine at Michael's craft store for less than $2. It is the perfect size to pack color on the lid. If you apply the pigments wet, the brush works well because it doesn't hold onto the water/mixing medium. It applies a perfect amount of color. Oh and it is a fraction of the price of the MAC brushes! Spend the money saved on the MAC face brushes which are much softer than any other brushes IMHO.

i use the 239 to pack it on, the 217 to blend together, and the 224 for a really light sweep of highlight. i love the 224 for pigments!
