Do you know the color names? Are these at pro stores or at Nordstroms also since they arent on-line yet?

Thanks)
someone posted the names yesterday.

like mac_whore said, these are more of a professional product, used mostly for body and face art. they aren't an everyday consumer product.

Re: MAC Pro New Neon Pigments

If you haven't already tried it, use the Fascinating Eye Kohl (the pure, matte white one) as a base under yellows. It totally makes any yellow scream.

They look gorgeous... but don't know if I will get any. They are so bright and I can't usually pull off really bright looks. I might have to get samples though.

Re: MAC Pro New Neon Pigments

Even though I love pigments and colorfull eyes, these do not interest me at all. And because they are not eye-safe makes them a total no-no for me.

Re: MAC Pro New Neon Pigments

okay slightly off topic but where can i find a list of pigments that states wether it is safe for eye use or not? cos i never read the labels and the latest 17 pigments/glitters I got, i binned the boxes n never bothered with the leaflet inside..so whats safe and what isnt? or does this deserve a new thread?

Re: MAC Pro New Neon Pigments

I would never wear them (not because I don't want to but because I'm NC15 and could not pull it off with my pale ass skin) but those are seriously pure sex. Gorgeous! *relives the 80s*

But they're not eye-safe? Meh. That's kind of lame. I can see why they wouldn't be but still.

WANT.THEM.NOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!

oh and those of you in Chicago: I've just been to the new PRO store on Armitage and ladies they DO NOT have the slightest clue of such a new addition.. so, if you're wondering whether they've got the collection.. nope!

Bugger...

They don't have the Cool Heat out on display either. On top of that they're not even doing a pre-sale/come-see-the-collection event...

Our Pro store better start acting like the pro store it's supposed to be :P

Re: MAC Pro New Neon Pigments

well though soccer, running around after 4th graders and in the heat most of the day, these things are great, budged a little but the same amount as normal pigments.

no reactions at all to these, but I still have them on and will reapply and try again tomorrow as well to see if its just today.

however as stated many times.. these are not eye safe to do so is at your own risk, and my results may not be the same as yours.

if its not eye safe, you can put it anywhere else on the body. the dangers are that you could have eye irritation, swelling, and even possible blindness. that's why when something isn't safe, we say if you wanna use it there, do it at your own risk.

that's probably why it's a pro product. i guess you can use it on your face/body, like make up for the tin man i've been using it on my eyes without any problems

silver is pure aluminum powder, and as you have probably learnt in chemistry class, the mixture of aluminium powder + metal oxide is called a thermite. heating it up may cause an explosion, melting metals and lots of heat (a few thousand degrees) it's used to weld rails together on railroads. so yeah, don't put any type of rust in your silver pigment and definitely don't try to heat it up

Re: MAC Pro New Neon Pigments

I got mine today and they are gorgeous.
However, the texture is pretty different from other MAC mattes.
They are thiner, made of very very small particules.
So, if you put some pigment on without blending it, it is extra bright and the more you add some, the brighter it gets.
But if you blend the neon pigment, it can get pretty sheer.
The orange one gets actually really light and I am thinking as using it as a blush.
To avoid the color to be sheer, the mixing medium doesn't work. The color then doesn't have the same shade everywhere...
I tried other bases, the best might be the white CCB and to avoid blending to much. Just pack the pigment on the base and will stick without changing color. Don't use a coordinate shade: fuschia for neon fushcia pigment, the pigment will look different.
My favorite of all of these new neon is the green one, it has a yellow hue in it. Unique!
