Pigment Ratings
1 – 5
I rated these on colors I like and use a lot and how well it was to use and tried to add comments to each and every one of them
Mac NW 20 during the summer
And NW 15 during the winter

Accent Red – (****) wonderful color but very close to ruby red so if you didn’t pick it up when it came out just buy the other, the only thing different is the reflect colors within it
Acid Orange - (*****) this is my fav. Orange ever, seriously! If you wear orange at all this is a must have for you!!! I love wearing this with gold, or golden lemon and bright coral for a rainbowish summer look!
Aire-de-blu – (****) this is a wonderful color that just came out and has a nice blue and silver shine though at times seems to have a little bit too much silver in it for my taste
All Girl – (*** 1/2) this is a pretty color but not worth the price or the hype that comes with it, however I don’t know of any color that is close to it so it gets a higher rating
Apricot Pink _ (****) this is a gorgeous pink plum color that looks wonderful as an eye shadow, eyeliner or lipglass (mix it with mac’s clear lipglass)
Auburn – (***) this is a deep burnt red/brown color I wouldn’t suggest picking it up unless you are just nuts like me and just want to collect them all, I’ve only used this a small handful of times
Azreal Blue – (**) this is a ok color but kinda way to silvery if you are looking for a better light blue color I would go with Aire-de-blu in stead it would also be easier to find at the moment
Basic Red – (** 1/2) this is a nice eye safe red/orange and is great if you are looking to layer another red over it, but by its self it tend to show a bit to orange on my skin
Black – (*****) this is great as an eyeliner a bit better then black black if you can find it, it just shows though a little bit more deep
Black Black - (*****) this is great as eyeliner
Blue (RR Blue) – (****) this is a truly gorgeous blue and I have found nothing close to it, I’ve only used it a handful of times but I’m not really a blue girl, but when I have I totally love it more then anything
Blue Brown – (*****) this is one of the best colors ever, I would give it more then 5 stars if I could. It’s a great color and if you can make it work on your skintone I would say go pick it up
Blue Storm – (***) if you skipped over this color go pick it up as naval blue from the pro store they are so close on the skin at times I wonder why I picked up both (only bought this so I could truly have the full collection I’m a bit odd what can I say)
Brass – (****) this is a nice color worth the search and if you can pick it up I would however if it’s a toss up between this and bronze, go with bronze
Bright Coral – (****) this is a great pink color and I believe its d/c if you can find it anywhere I would pick it up
Bright Fuchsia – (*****) again a great color that thankful mac still carries if you have the money pick it up and keep it forever cause its a pretty color
Bronze – (*****) this is my fav pigment ever seriously if you can get your hands on it I would say buy as much as you can, its beautiful color
Burnt Burgundy – (**) I’m having a very hard time blending and working with this color and making it so it doesn’t look like I have black eye
Chartreuse – (*****) this is a wonderful my favorite green and I would totally suggest picking it up if you can
Chocolate Brown – (****) nice rich chocolate brown the name says it call, this has nice brown and gold undertones and looks great as eyeliner or eye shadow
Clear Sky Blue – (****) I picked this up just because and I have used it 3 times its quite easy to work with for a matte, if you like blues this is a go to color
Coco – (****) this is a nice color when working with browns, if you can find it I would highly suggest picking it up
Coco Beach –(***) this is a pretty color, with copper undertones the same brown tone that is in chocolate brown.
Cool Pink – (**) this is a light matte pink and a very nice one to, I don’t tend to pick it up much without its counterpart in a paint stick and have used it on top of lipstick to lighten the color and added depth to some of them
Copper – (*****) must buy it if you can find it this is a wonderful gorgeous color
Copper (metal) – (***) this is a nice metal pigment and for a metal I like it, but compared to the frost version this comes in as a low second
Copperclast – (*****) I love, love, love this pigment what can I say its got a lot of colors in it depending upon what you use as a base
Copper Sparkle – (*****) I totally love this pigment I want to call it a glitter almost because its texture is so different, once you get working with this one down, rose and steel blue are the same
Cornflower – (****) this is a very nice duo chrome color that I hardly get the chance to use but I love it all the same, and I want to say its once of a kind but the lighter version of it seems to be soft wash gray I believe if you want the colors toned down a bit.
Dark Soul – (***) the only thing I’ve ever been able to use this for is eyeliner and really it looks the same as black tied when applied that way, its very pretty in the jar but kinda a let down out side of it, but if you cant go to the pro store to get black black get this instead
Dazzleray – (*****) I love this honey color its one of the few I really do love, love, love ok maybe more then a few but its beautiful and we don’t have anything else like it at the moment so go out and buy it if you can cause dude its so worth it
Deckchair – (*****) this is a really nice color kinda reminds me of melon but in a different peachier/ pinkish way
Deep Blue Green – (***) I’ve never used this pigment as anything but an eyeliner but I like playing with it on my hand and it’s a very nice color that is easy to work with and in the right light it can pass for forest green if you are trying to find that one
Deep Brown – (****) is nice as an eyeliner and eyeshadow but a little bit hard to work with at first but like all matte you get used to it and just have to remember to apply a lot of base before hand and know not to expect to go out with it on the first time using it.
Deep Purple – (***) again this is one of those I’ve only used for eyeliner but it’s a nice color to have and it’s very pretty too
Dusty Coral – (*****) this is a wonderful matte that works great as an eyeshadow as well as a blush I’m not sure about as a lipglass because I’ve never tried it
Electric Coral – (*****) this is a very good pigment and one of the bright ones that mac makes and if you like “loud” colors well then look no more it along with bright fuchsia

 

[bebs]

Emerald Green – (** 1/2) this pigment is harder to work with then some of the other mattes that I’ve tried in the past it takes a long while to get used to it because of the fine milling and the glitter texture with it
Entremauve – (***) this to me is the same as emerald green a little harder to work with, I’ve heard it compared to grape quite a bit and they are pretty close and to some interchangeable so if you looking for a nice dark purple that’s not LE look for grape instead of entremauve
Fairylite – (*****) this and naked are my fav for a nice wonderful nude eye
Forest Green – (****) if your going for a dark green look, look no father then forest green it is the best dark green ever!
French Violet – (***) just rating this one on color alone I’ve never actually used it
Frost – (*****) I am one of the few that like this color it has a glittery texture that is a bit tough to work with at first but once you get used to it, it’s a nice pigment
Frozen White –(****) I like to use this if I’m doing blue eyes or purple as a highlight or under the eye just to make it pop it’s a very easy color to work with and one of the nice ones that I tend to reach for just to add a few different colors
Fuchsia – (****) this is a nice color and one of the ones you can find in the free standing stores its not one that is eye catching to me in the jar but out side and on as eyeshadow or mixed into lipglass its very nice and one of the pigments you shouldn’t over look
Genuine Orange – (***) I’ve never actually used this pigment it was one of those I want it I need it to have them all it seems like the older matte formula and maybe a little bit harder to work with then the new ones
Gold – (*** 1/2) this is a nice color but not worth the prices it goes for if you want a nice golden yellow go with golden lemon if you can get it.
Gold (metal) – (**) like with all the metals these aren’t the easiest things to use or anything of the sort, if I knew what I knew now I might not buy them again.
Gold Dusk – (****) this is a very nice frosty pale gold and if you want something like golden lemon but a bit lighter this is the color to go to, it like all frost pigments easy to use and blend
Goldenaire – (***) I well unlike most this isn’t my fav. Color its nice and all but to me its to much like everything else, but if you took the other away it would be a nice color by its self
Golden Lemon – (*****) I love this color it’s my fav ever, even better then gold! And is a must have in my book sadly I believe mac has d/c this color
Golden Olive – (****) this is one of the first pigments I got and I totally love it, it’s a wonderful medium golden green not to dark and not to light wonderful when doing a green eye
Golders Green – (*****) I love this color it wasn’t what I expected but it’s a nice warm mintie green with gold tones in it
Grape – (***) this color is a very nice purple but you can interchange it very well with entremauve as well without many people knowing
Green – (*****) I love this green it’s a true wonderful green and nothing else in the line is like this color it’s to good to pass up so don’t if you can find it ever
Green (Matte) – (***) there is a lot of hype and a you cant get factor about this pigment, it is nice, however like most mattes it’s a bit hard to use compared to the frost pigments the color is a nice toned down green and is pretty, however I don’t see many people using this pigment or maybe even getting mad when trying to because of the texture and dark color
Green Brown – (****) this is a lot like old gold yet nothing at all like it. It’s the perfect brown with green duo chrome mixed in with it. It’s one that you might use all the time or hardly at all depending upon how bold you want to go with your make up that day
Kelly Green – (***) this is a very nice green color a bit warmer then golder’s green, as well as a darker mix with green it’s a very nice pigment so if your in the pro store I would say pick it up and add it to the pigments that you have cause it’s a great color
Kitschmas (second release) – (***) this is a nice low toned pink mauve mix but not really worth the hype that was around it
Landscape Green – (*** 1/2) this is a very pretty matte green I however do go for the frost pigments more but all and all its very nice when you are trying to do a toned down look
Lily White – (***) this is a nice pretty frost with a pink and purple glow to it
Light Blue – (****) I love this color its one of the nicest blues I think I have seen in a while its easy to apply for a matte and I have reached for it more so then others just to play and use above most of the others
Lovely Lily – (****) this is a nice light violet I really love it when I’m using purples and light colored eyes, its another one that’s easy to use and a beautiful color to use
Marine Ultra – (***) marine ultra seems like royal blue just a lot less bright and vibrant I’ve only reached for this one very few times because it doesn’t seem to stand out with all the other bright blues around
Maroon – (****) a lot of people don’t seem to like maroon and I don’t see where that comes in it’s a wonderful deep plum great with a smoky eye, eyeliner pair it with a gold or a bronze and you will have a very striking eyeshadow doing for the night
Melon – (*****) this is one of my fav pigments to play with in the summer time it’s a wonderful peach with an orange glow paired great with acid orange among many things out side of oranges to
Mustard – (*) this is one of the colors many pigment collectors go for and have a harder time of finding and unless you are that it is a waste its ok to work with but the color makes most look sickly (I’ve tried it on my self many time as well as many other friends with different eyeshadow) it makes a dark yellow cast on the skin
Naval Blue – (****) this is a lot like blue storm in fact I get the two mixed up once and a while so if you have one you have the other, it’s a very nice dark blue anyways that I think is always nice to have if you like well blues
Naked – (****) another wonderful nude pigment for eyeshadow
Night Light – (****) I must say when this pigment first came out I was all over it and now well I still I am, I totally love it, it’s a lovely darker green with a brown cast and a gold cast as well if you don’t have it already I would try to get at least a sample if not a whole jar of this color
Nocturnal Plum – (***) this is a really dark purple/maroon pigment quite nice and dark I’ve used this as eyeliner and mascara many times at night and it just adds a little bit of color and its very nice however its hardly workable as an eyeshadow and d/c
Old Gold – (****) this is one of my all time go to pigments I totally love it and its one of the only pigments I have showing use its beautiful on its own or paired up with others
Orange – (****) this is a color I had to look for majorly to find but really I hardly ever use it, it’s a nice orange and a true orange at that its one that I’m sure will have its uses since it is easy to work with
Pastorale – (*****) this pigment was like what I wanted golder’s green to be, it’s a wonderful sea foam green light and beautiful a must have in my book

 

[bebs]

Pink Bronze – (*****) again one of my fav pigments, and lucky for most it is at freestanding stores now it’s a gorgeous duo chrome of orange and pink great if your doing a sunset eye
Pink – (***) this is as its said pink, the only thing I use this pigment for is to mix within clear lipglass but it is a very nice color I however don’t go with pink eyeshadow to often so I don’t know how well it work for that
Pink Opal – (*****) I totally love this it’s a frost light pink that if you want can be added on the cheeks as a highlight or even as eyeshadow if you wanted
Pink Pearl – (*****) beautiful purple pink due chrome
Pink Vivid – (****) another beautiful matte pink/purple pigment
Pinked Mauve – (****) this is a very nice frost pigment and reminds me of pink vivid in some ways and if you can still find it I would pick it up
Platinum (metal) – (**) like all the metals this is a wonderful color however hard to work with, if anybody can figure out how to use it better get to me, however you can use mascara mixing medium and it makes a hot mascara
Polished Ivory – (*) this is ok for really a nude highlight and a bit of concealer if your skin is light enough (I use this under my eyes once and a while to blend in to make my darker ones work for me
Primary Yellow – (***) I use this rarely but when I do I love it, it’s a very easy to use matte that’s a bright pretty yellow as the name implies
Provence – (*****) another wonderful nude color mac makes a few of these so if that’s what you are looking for go with Fairylite or naked it will be easier and probably cheaper to find then this LE color, but don’t get me wrong if you can get this color pick it up
Pure White – (****) this is great for use on the inside of the eye instead of using a white pencil to make the eye pop, it looks like baby powder and if fairly easy to use
Purple – (*****) I must say I love this color it took me a long time to get a hold of it and it’s a gorgeous bright matte purple, if you can get a hold of it go for it
Red – (***) this is a true red unlike basic red, it’s a matte as well and I don’t believe its eye safe however I’ve put a paint stick on and used it as eyeshadow before but each to their own, and mac does say its not for that area, just letting people know before using it
Rich Purple – (**) again a very nice purple but it seems we can only have so much purple without looking like one got hit, if you have darker skin then mine it would probably be a nice color (I’m sorry I’m just really pale)
Royal Blue – (****) I must say for blues this is one of the best it’s a great color fairly easy to use and a vibrant blue that easy to use
Rose – (****) for those that dare this is a beautiful blush if used lightly, mixed with clear lipglass it can be used for that as well I love using this as eyeshadow however, with a shade stick under it, it works fine
Rose Gold (metal) – (**) another metal that it really great as a mascara and a pretty color all on its on as well, I’ve used this as a eyeshadow as well
Ruby Red – (*****) nice deep pink red with reflects colors in it
Silver – (*****) I wouldn’t really call this silver because it’s more of a gunmetal gray color, if you want silver go to silver fog instead but reviewing it for just the pigment its self its wonderful and I love it
Silver (metal) - (**) I have all 5 of the metals and this is my least favorite of all of them I just have a hard time getting them to work the way I want them to, these are most defiantly for the bold and brave and not the faint of heart
Silver Fog – (*****) I love this silver pigment it’s very nice and light and easy to work with and if you add reflects pearl on top of it omg it looks wonderful
Shimmertime – (**) this is a very shimmerie pink its nice but nothing to special, if you don’t have it and have to shell out a lot for a pigment unless you are in love with baby pinks this is a pass
Softwash Gray – (****) seems almost like a lighter version of cornflower
Steel Blue – (*****) I have died and gone to heaven with this color I have to say this is my all time fav! It’s a dark blue and it seems gold but if you compare it to bronze pigment the color within it almost looks the same
Subtle – (***) this is a nice frosty brown, light like coco but a few shades darker
Sunny Daze – (***) this one is like subtle and coco however it seems to have a lot more silver within it if your looking for light silver brown this is your color
Sunpepper – (****) I like this color, it’s a dark brown with a silver and blue and green duo chrome with in, in the light it’s a beautiful color that I don’t think could be reproduced though mac’s current pigments
Tan – (**) tan was one of the first few pigments that I got, and it’s a very nice color I just don’t find my self-reaching for it as I do with most of my other pigments
Teal – (*****) I love, love, love this color also if you put this over sea me shade stick it looks like the sought out parrot eyeshadow
True Chartreuse – (****) I use this as a red corrector on zits and all that however I haven’t found any other use for it as of yet, because when mixed on the eye with frosts it tends to not look so great, but if I find anything else with it I’ll post it up
Turquoise – (****) this one is one of my fav matte its easy to work with and a beautiful color to wear when doing teals and greens or blues and teals. If you can find it I would say pick it up and give it a try
Vanilla – (*****) this is a cool pigment it seems more of a frost with red or orange chrome in the light depending upon what color base you use under it
Violet – (****) I love this color, its another one that is just so pretty, and seems to be under rated for color wise, this is one of the first purples I grab if I’m doing anything with them, and I would sugest it to anybody who wanted a purple
White – (*****) ok well I’m going to say frost and white are two different pigments, white is a glowing pearl of a color with no glitter particles and its just wow that’s all I can say, I love working with this pigment its so easy to use and so beautiful, pick it up if you can find it, its well worth it if you are looking for a pearl white that’s not frost.
White Gold – (****) I like this pigment easpically when using old gold it’s a nice color but probably not one I would use on its own for anything, maybe a highlight on a green eye depending upon my mood, but it’s a highly under rated color that should have the light once and a while
Yellow – (*) I mostly just bought this one to make my collection complete I’ve tried using it once and it makes me look almost sickly

 

[pinkfeet]

Too many to mention and guess what? I never use them, so this past collection I normally would of bought them just because they were "pigments" and popped them in the pigment drawer and they would of never seen the light of day again after being entered in my Excel spreadsheet.......this time I looked at the pigments from Danse and said they were far too sheer and colors I normally would never ever wear, and didnt buy them.

Will I regret it later on? Most likely in some stupid makeup junkie way, but its for the better cause its just a waste of money as every single one of of my pigments just sit in the box, in the pigment drawer waiting...for what? for me to die and then they get tossed in the garbage or dropped off at Goodwill by my family?

I love this thread. I'm bumping it

 

[aeroSOUL]

I LOVE pigments!!! I use them wayyyy more than eyeshadows!!
the only color one I don't LOVE LOVE LOVE is aire de blue, it looks wonderful in the jar, but it goes on very sheer!

My fav ones are Sunpepper, Violet, and Frost, Pure white... well, I love them all but I have too many to name off the top of my head, and I'm not gonna go get them! =D

My pigments:

Aire de Blu: 3.5/5. The reason why I rate this one so low is because it has so little colour payoff, so using it alone as a shadow isn't going to cut it. However I can't live without it as it is a truly beautiful sky blue with silver sparkle.
Golden Lemon: 5/5. On the skin, this looks gold but it's not metallic gold, just a nice yellow-y gold. It can really amp up a neutral look, and it goes great when I do my yellow looks.
Helium: 4.5/5. Another cannot live without pigment! The payoff on this one alone is not that great. It makes a great highlight colour. The way that I make this so valuable to me is mixing it-I mix it with Jardin Aires, with Pink Pearl, with Violet...it's a very light pink with a red duochrome to it. Also with this one, be prepared for fallout. It's nothing that is going to be detrimental-just sweep the shrapnel away-but there is fallout nonetheless.
Jardin Aires: 5/5. I hear all the time about how people love Vanilla but if you have a warmer skin tone, this is a hundred times better as a highlighter. Not only does it work amazingly for that but you can use it anywhere on the face effectively.
Lark about: 4/5. It's a very interesting pigment all right...it is similar in texture to Jardin Aires in that it is a bit chunky, but it's still a nice one. It's a white with blue duochrome, which makes for an interesting highlight.
Mutiny: 5/5. Where has this been all my life? A nice, frosty light blue with really good payoff? LOVE IT! I would say the texture is similar to that of Teal or Jardin Aires.
Pink Pearl: 4/5. It's a very pretty colour but nothing I could not live without. If I get back into doing pink looks for the eye I suppose I would use this more but I rarely ever reach for it.
Teal: 3/5. It's such a pretty colour, and the texture is great, but I have used it maybe 5 times tops since I bought it. Mixing it was how I was able to get some use out of it, but it is harder for me to work with.
Violet: 5/5. If you love purples your collection needs to have this. It looks dark on, but it goes on more subtle and if you pair this with Beautiful Iris you have a look that can take you anywhere.

These are just the pigments I have, I will edit as I get more.

[nelyanaphonexia]

Acid Orange (*****) - OMG <3 This is one of my favorites of all time ever. I can't get enough of this amazing orange. It's just too too too fun. I can wear it with my sparkles, my neutrals or something bright and summery.*~-

-~*
Bell Bottom Blue (****) - this is a great blue. it makes a fabulous accent color or a full on blue. I've recently used it in nail polish and it looked great.

Chartreuse (*****) - my fave green! <3 I would wear this everyday if I could, but then people would start to call me the girl with green eyeshadow....
Pink Pearl (****) - nice pink. looks good with darker roses and neutrals. has a better texture than some of the other pinks I've swatched.
Rose Gold (*****) -

this was my reason to go to the pro store in the first place. I wasn't disappointed either! I love my rose gold! Lovely. Golden. Goes with my Skin. just enough shimmer/metallic to be awesome but not too much to look like a "fake glitter" or something...love love love it!

Accent Red (***) - my first pigment. its a nice red. i don't think it's eye safe. the only thing I've used it for is nail color. its nice enough, but has never stood out against all my other berries, plums and reds.

Glitter Pigments....I wasn't sure if I should put them on the list or not....
Reflects Bronze (****) - for a glitter this is awesome. its I love love love it. It's the only glitter i could see myself wearing all the time. which is why I bought it. love the color. it applied easier than other glitters I've had in the past etc.

Reflects Turquatic (***) - this one doesn't get four stars because I just don't wear it as much as the Reflects Bronze. It's nice. It's turquoise. I wear it on top of my Blue Peep Fluidline sometimes.
