Eep. For foiled pigments these don’t look so hot. The foil isn’t strong enough. And usually loose pigments are so color saturated! Hm. At least that green is pretty cool but these don’t make me think of “foiled” or “pigments.”

These are pretty but I’ll stick with my indie loose shadows for a fraction of the price. Anything can be foiled with a little bit of water or Mac Fix+! ?

So I love MUG and was really excited about these… but… I’m not really sure what makes these different from their other pigments (that I have good experiences with)? The only one that seems super vibrant and special is Voodoo.

Meh, a lot of these don’t look foiled to me much less pigmented. I’m really disappointed that Abracadabra and Atlantis both look so sheer! They look like they could’ve been gorgeous.
Voodoo looks great though!

Hmm. Some of the colors are gorgeous (I’m looking at you Telepathic, Firefly, Tinman, and Atlantis!) Too bad pigments aren’t my cup of tea. Too much work imo! I just know that I wouldn’t actually use them.

I definitely love the shift in Tin Man very beautiful that color is everything?.I also think Atlantis is so pretty there just aren’t very many products that are that color blue.Gargoyle and Illusion are also very nice.And Voodoo is stunning like everyone said!!

I think some of these are quite pretty but, for me, not worth the hassle of working with loose pigments. If I go that route the shadow will have to really wow me, nothing here does that.
