MAC Reflect glitters

[lazytolove]

- Sorry i'm new the MAC and just wondering can we press those reflect glitters like pigments? TA ;D

Good question; I would like to know the answer, too.

Hmmmmm...I would doubt it but let's see if someone knows for sure.

I don't think so. When I press pigments, I find that once you use your brush, they seem to be pretty crumbly (vs an e/s from MAC that stays super solid when you rub your brush up against it). Pigments kind of stick together even in the jar (some ball up) whereas the Reflects glitters are fine, very loose. Once you mix it with alcohol and the alcohol evaporates, I don't believe there is anything that would enable the glitters to stick to themselves.

edit: i'm testing it out now, will let you know later what it turns out like

i've tried to do it before and it didnt work. ive had success mixing glitters and pigments together and pressing them, however, like any eyeshadow with glitter in it, the glitter is harder to make stick to the skin than the shadow itself.

okay results of the test:

It looked so pretty and flat when the alcohol dried out but as soon as you touch it, its so crumbly and you're basically back to square one from when you poured it out of the container. So no, doesn't work.
