Editor's Review

Big Wig is a medium-dark purple with warmer, pink undertones and a matte finish. It had nearly opaque pigmentation in a single layer with a smooth, finely-milled consistency that was a little thinner (but not as powdery as the average Anastasia matte eyeshadow). It applied decently, and it was marginally more blendable over an eyeshadow primer, but it was still a shade that took extra effort and some talent to really diffuse and blend out seamlessly. Pinker actually ends up being a perfect way to fake it, as Big Wig diffuses out to a similar pinker tone, so the two end up meshing seamlessly without having to work so hard at it. On me, Big Wig lasted well for eight and a half hours before fading a bit, but it did leave behind a pinkish stain.

(It is a Pressed Pigment, see beginning of the post for more information.)
