How do you apply your piggies?

Yepp pigments that is!!!*lol*
I use a mixing medium and put it on using a small brush that is actually for lips!!I also put some loose pigments and apply it on top of that so the colors shows more and the shimmer comes out more.I have to hold a cosmetic pad under my eye doing it or else it all falls under my eyes and get stucked there!!

How do you apply your pigments or other loose eyeshaddows?

Re: How do you apply your piggies?

I spray the brush with Fix +, wipe with a napkin, dip in pigments and then apply.

Re: How do you apply your piggies?

I normally mix the pigment/glitter & mixing medium together then apply with a brush.

Re: How do you apply your piggies?

I pack them on an e/s brush (different brushes depending on where I am applying them on the eyes), and pat them on over my Paint + CCB base. This way the color is AMAZING, the shimmer is hardcore, and they last and last!

Re: How do you apply your piggies?

I apply my pigments as e/s with a dampened (using only water) brush. After hearing the all the recent raves of Fix +, I'm really lemming this product.

Re: How do you apply your piggies?

to help the piggies stay in one place, i dip my brush in a little water first, then dab on.

Re: How do you apply your piggies?

I apply the piggies over paint. I am going to go buy the CCB that Leila raves about to use with my paints...might as well since I have to make a special trip to the MAC store, anyways.

Oh, I also use the piggies as liner and when I do that, I use a Mixing Medium, a liner brush, and blend the two on my hand and then apply the color.

Re: How do you apply your piggies?

I use a drop of water, the colour seems brighter and it stays on longer, then use a MAC brushand apply small layers to build up the colourso i dont put on too much!

I usually apply them dry on my lids with the #242. I love the sound of this idea though bocagirl. Thanks for posting about it
