Pigment Samples from Cheryl's Shiny Eyes

[Kiss and Makeup]

While watching youtube, I found a site that sales 1/2 teaspoon pigment samples - 10 for $48.

Has anyone ordered pigments from this site, or other sites? The site states the pigments are authentic, but how can you tell? There is no pro store around me and there's a couple of colors I'm interested in trying (Platinum, for example). I know there's a lot of fake MAC products out there, and I wanted to know if anyone's ordered from her or another site.

Sorry if this is a duplicate thread, I searched and didnt find anything. Thanks!

I have dealt with Cheryl on many occasions. She buys directly from MAC, MAC Pro, or reputable sellers. I would have no worries when buying anything from her. She has been selling samples for years.

makeupgeek.com is a good place. Not sure about the one you mentioned.

Cheryl is a specktra member, and she used to sell her pigment samples here as well. I've bought from her before - everything is legit, and she's very sweet as well.

She's 100% legit and wonderful! Buy away!!

Thanks for the info! I didn't mean to come of questioning her ethics or anything..with all the horror stories I've heard I just wanted to check to make sure.

Order away I did! I hope I chose well for my NC15 skintype. I went off names and the color swatches on the website here.

I got
~Platinum
~Deep Blue Green
~Rose Gold
~Your Ladyship
~Reflects Pearl
~Nocturnal Plum
~Mutiny
~Helium
~Deep Purple
~Dark Soul

She said she'd give away a free 11th one, and I just said whatever! If I get something I already have I can always give it away to a friend. I'm SUPER excited about this!!

That's what I've heard. I didn't know she was a member here. I'm *really* new myself (like two/three weeks). I wasn't trying to be disrespectful or anything...just my luck that things that seem to be good turn around and bite me. I just wanted to double check before I charged 50 (more, haha!) dollars on makeup, you know?

I love Cheryl! She's a very nice person to deal with and everything is legit. All my pigment samples are from her.

Hi all, thank you for your kind words

) I was going through the counterfeit thread when I saw the title of this one under "counterfeit" and needless to say was very surprised. I know the gal that started it meant no harm at all. I do wish it was worded differently, by looking through the "counterfiet" forum it makes it look like I'm selling fakes. I was wondering why my sales these past 3 weeks have slowed down alot.I hope my sales pick back up and maybe it's a fluke they got slow at the same time this thread was started, I hope so.... As everyone stated I've been selling for many years, buy direct, get my rares from trusted sources, report fake sellers, ect..

Kiss & makeup placed a order and your great to work with. It's always good to ask about a seller you don't know so I'm not saying anything negative about you

Being new to Specktra and it being a huge site it's hard to know where to post what.

I have a problem though that i'm hoping for some imput.
Unless people actually open the thread and read it they wont know what was written & may assume by the title and catagory that I sell counterfeits. It's too bad the title or catagory to your question cant be changed. Does anyone have any ideas of have to fix this?

 

[nunu]

^ Hi Cheryl maybe the OP can edit the title of the thread?

 

[1165Cheryl]

Thanks Nunu

I'll send her a PM and ask if she will. I was wondering why things slowed down, hopefully if she changes it that will help

As you know with my lupus this is my only income and work from home, not many know that only my buddy's/re-peat buyers like you

 

[*KT*]

Or maybe move the thread to a different forum like the Recommondation forum?

I hope it's only the state of the economy that's affected buyer confidence and people tightening down their spending habits and not this thread.

I also purchased from Cheryl and she's a joy to do business with.
