Whoa... thanks SO much for the step by step illustrated instructions. I'm having trouble, making a mess with pigments, would rather make eyeshadows! Thank you!

Re: Guide to Pigment Pressing (PIC HEAVY)
Very genius! I wonder if this can be done witha mix of glitter AND pigment. I'll try one day. But, I doubt it will turn out right. Hehe.

Re: Guide to Pigment Pressing (PIC HEAVY)
I am super excited to try this out. I was wondering if any one has tried this with mineral make up that is in a power and if this would change the colour?

Thanks

Re: Guide to Pigment Pressing (PIC HEAVY)
Thanks so much for this great tutorial! I used it to press 8 pigments last week. The only difference was I used the pressing medium from Coastal Scents instead of isopropyl alcohol. I think the CS one has isopropyl alcohol, plus a binder to make the pigment stick together better (such as an oil). I also used little plastic spatulas from CS to mix everything together and to scoop the pigment out of the container. I just air dried the finished eyeshadows afterwards instead of using heat. I had to wait probably about 12 hours before I pressed them since that's about how long they took to dry. And I used a clamp to press the quarter in, rather than just using my hand. This method works great, and now my pressed eyeshadows look better than my store-bought MAC ones. It was fun, too. It was kind of messy, but now I have a great finished product.
