I used Pink Pearl pigment on lid, Elite eyeshadow (LE) on...

Looks - Cool Heat Themed Eye with Warm Chill, Blue Flame, and Climate Blue

Cool Heat look for y'all! :)

FYI, when I spoke to SCP PRO, the MA said the Neon pigments are NOT eye-safe except the green one. Well, "not recommended." I asked if the MA had any idea why (I assumed it was the red dye), and she said it was because a lot of people have reactions to the red dye which...
