you might also want to check out Belle Pierre...you have to e-mail them for locations near you, but persoanlly, i think they are AWESOME. the pigmentation is insane. everything they have is loose mineral powders and it's all very nice. i have their...i think it's called "Fabulous" 9-stack and i use it every day. the red they have is exactly like Accent Red on me.

I have a couple of the L'Oreal HIP pigments... they're not too good... color payoff is crappy, and you have to kinda "crush" the flake-like pigments on your lid, which is difficult without getting flakes/crushed powder in your eye... kinda sucky, if you ask me. I have the light green and fuchsia color. PLUS they're like 10 bucks! wtf they're like 1/3 the size of a M.A.C pigment, and they aren't even filled up! agh!

questions, comments about this?

I rather liked them. They seemed to go on buttery and stay as long as other pigments when I use a base. I have the green, purple and pink one. I just wish they'd have more odd colors, but they do have a green brown color that looks interesting.
As for the price, i agree you should get more, but the brush is okay so i can justify it.

They have pure mica colorants,.. they have literally no talc so they are kinda dusty,.. but they look so good! And last a lifetime unless you only use 1 color all the time. Foil them and you will be knocked down amazed.

the l'oreal h.i.p. pigments are entirely unimpressive. per gram, they actually end up costing quite a bit MORE than MAC pigments, and the color payoff, and blendability are far inferior to MAC, as well. the only thing i can say is that the colors are somewhat comparable, you can tell which ones l'oreal planned to market as alternative counterpart to actual MAC shades.
the only other loose pigment products i've liked have been the stila all-over shimmers, which come in a range of 15 shades or so. they're smaller containers, and they cost around $16 if i remember correctly. they have a bright blue, and a bright green, which are particularly of note.

Thanks in advance.

I've only tried four brands with products similar to MAC pigments.
Cecil B. - which I think is largely unavailable. They used to have a store on Robson St. in Vancouver, and the pigments were super strong in colour, and you only needed a bit. I still have them, over 20 years later! And I wore them tons, when I was in my teens.
Tony and Tina Universal Colour Dust - You can still find these on Ebay, but it's getting more rare, daily. The company went out of business in 2005. I love these powders, and find them sheer, in one application, but can be built up. They have an amazing iridescent quality, like a butterfly's wing, or a peacock's feather - I have about half a dozen colours, and love them all.
L'Oreal made some powder eyeshadows a few years ago (no, these aren't the HIP shadows) - they were okay, for the price, but I didn't like them as much as the other two.
Lise Watier (an exclusively Canadian company, as far as I know) makes something called couleur folies, very similar to the T&T colour dusts. I quite like them, although, they cost quite a bit, in fact, MAC pigments are a better deal, but the folies have a really smooth finish, almost silky - something I didn't find in the only two MAC pigments I've bought. I have three folies, and will replace them when they run out. The Folie d'Eau is similar to pics I've seen of parrot e/s, too. I think it's lovely.
