When I first bought my samples I was very pleased with them 'cause they just look so pretty and stuff but I soon was a bit disappointed because applied dry they didn't show up ( on my NW15 skin !!! ) and once applied foiled the colors were vibrant but fell a lot on my cheeks and made my face look like a total mess !

So after 3 or 4 tries ... I gave up and kept these oh-so cute pots in my drawers.

Buttt ... then I discovered Mac Shadesticks !!!!

This stuff is in my opinion the best shadow base I've never tried ! It made a total difference to my eye make up !

For exemple today I'm only wearing pure luxe shadows on my lids ( white diamonds, charisma, risque and bubblegum), applied dry over beige-ing and Crimsonaire shadesticks !

The result is marvelous ... for real.

The s/s seems to make the pigments "stick" very well and it stays put all day long. No more fall out or dull pigment shadows !

Now I loooooove to wear my pure luxe and Mac pigments because I found it as easy to use as regular shadows. ^_^'

Hope this helps 'cause it completely change my pigment make-up life ! hahaha

They are even better with MAC paints which give a better color payoff or try Krylon AquaColors for very intense payoff. The key is a definite paint, shadestick kind of base, the richer or deeper the more payoff you will recieve.
