    Brown Base

    What the purpose of the brown base? My sister has a white base, but thats to make her lighter colors and some darker colors POP! Otherwise they would look dull or blend into her skin. I on the other hand have a shade stick, I just don't get hte use of the base.

    And you really need to take pictures of your mac collection. lol


    >>>LOL, Cream Colour Base in brown was used by an M.A. to contour my cheeks. Then, in Essence, they featured it once as an eye shadow. It's such a good base because of the texture, and when you pack a powder over a cream, the color will really lay beautifully. It's a great combination. I used brown because it was a neutral. I have the white eye gloss, but I normally only use it during hair shows. It sure will make the color pop!

    Golden Lemon Pigment

    What do you use for the pigment to stay in place and not come off durring the day? I don't own any pigments, I have about 20 shadows, but im looking to expand my eye kit (EYES ARE THE BEST). With that being said, whats so wonderful about pigments? How do they differ from shadows? and What are the variety of options you have with them?

    >>>Girl, pigments are the Mecca of color! They can be mixed with each other or any other shadow or blush or any other cosmetic to alter the color. The only real difference in pigments in shadows is that they are loose, in my opinion. I have mixed several pigments together in sample jars to create my own signature colors. I still don't know all the things that you can do with pigments, but I have used them for skin, eyes, cheeks and lips. I adore them. I would definitely invest in them, I am trying to get them all.
