Abracadabra
Makeup Geek Abracadabra Pigment ($12.00 for 0.10 oz.) is a light, springy green with soft, warm undertones and a metallic sheen. It had more medium, buildable coverage than rich coverage right away, but the product seemed denser, even though it still felt soft and finely-milled by touch. It applied with slightly more coverage and had a more metallic sheen when I used a dampened brush compared to dry application. This shade wore well for eight hours on me before creasing.

Tin Man
Makeup Geek Tin Man Pigment ($12.00 for 0.10 oz.) is a silvery gray with a purplish sheen–I felt like there was a lot of nuance to this shade. The texture was soft, blendable, and easy to work with both dry and damp. It had more semi-opaque, buildable coverage when I used it dry compared to its opaque coverage when I used a dampened brush. It started to crease after eight hours on me.

Atlantis
Makeup Geek Atlantis Pigment ($12.00 for 0.10 oz.) is a light-medium sky blue with cool undertones and a metallic sheen. This was one of the more Foiled shades in the range–very reflective and high-shine. The consistency seemed a little chunkier in the pot, but it applied quite smoothly to bare skin, though I found that using a dampened brush was key with this particular shade, as it produced opaque, even coverage. The dry application was almost grayer and less blue with medium coverage. The eyeshadow started to crease after eight hours of wear.

Voodoo
Makeup Geek Voodoo Pigment ($12.00 for 0.10 oz.) is a rich, bright grass green with warm, yellow undertones and a metallic finish. It was intensely pigmented, but it was trickier to work with as the texture was chunkier, almost gritty, and really had to buffed and pressed into the skin. I recommend taking a little bit of the pigment on a clean palette or the interior of the lid with a wet brush (not just damp) to mix and bind everything together and then applying to the lid. The color stayed on well for eight hours.

Atlantis and Tin Man are my absolute faves! Such fun colours coming out in this collection!
Great picks, Stephanie!
Tin Man is interesting. I rarely reach for loose pigments though.
Tin Man was really cool! I love pigments, too, but pressed powders are easier to work with overall.
I went in thinking that I was going to have to have Voodoo, but then saw I have 2 dupes!
The star of this set for me is Tin Man. That purplish, grayish *something* is magical for anyone with green infused eye colors, whether blue-green or hazel or green-green! And because these do have sifters, I’m getting it. It’s Scunci proof! ?
Glad you have two dupes for Voodoo! 🙂
Voodoo is absolutely stunning.
I agree!
Voodoo looks cray pigmented! Like the looks of Tin Man, could make a complex smoky eye easy
Voodoo was intense!
Tin Man and Voodoo are my picks here!!!
I love the purply sheen of tin man oh my goodness!!!
Voodoo is bright!
Very pretty all around! I like Tin Man!
Tin Man is interesting!
Glorious shades and a beautiful sheen. Loved Tin Man, Atlantis and Abracadabra the best.
They are fun!
Tin Man is my pick. It’s complexity and coloring remind me of the somewhat lighter Loreal Infallible e/s Liquid Diamond.
As soon as you put up your first swatches Christine I loved Tin Man because of the nuances?It is so pretty and I love Atlantis the shade,how foiled it looks and it’s just a great spring color Voodoo is as well considering the Pantone color of the year is Greenery!!
