Mac pigments as eyeshadow.

Has anyone ever used Mac pigments as eyeshadow? I'm pretty pale so I was wondering which shades might look nice on my skin. I normally wear a bronzy brown color because I find it suits me best- any pigments that are similar to that color that would look nice? Also, with the pigments is it possible to still use a highlighter right under the brows and blend it with the pigment so it looks natural?

Mac pigments are excellent as eyeshadows (and even more amazing when you use them wet!) just make sure you have a good eye primer for them to stick to. my favourite ones are gold stroke, jardenaires, tan and naked... naked makes a beautiful highlight shade :)

Naked is an excellent highlight, I agree. You can also mix it with clear gloss to make your own person nude gloss, or add to clear polish :) I loveeeee Melon pigment. It's phenomenal wet because of the color read. I highly recommend them for their multitasking prowess!!

That's pretty much what people use pigments for majority of the time, me thinks. As eyeshadow, whether it be highlight or no.

Everyone has suggested great colors :) I use MAC color base in Luna to help set (dry) because the paint pots don't prime enough. And you'll have yourself a mess, believe me lol
P.s. a little goes a long way :)
