How to get the most out of your eye make-up with pigments?

Eye pigments are super versatile and allow you to create amazing looks, from subtle to bold. Here are a few ideas on how to make the most of them:

Natural look: Apply a luminous pigment such as gold or champagne to the centre of the eyelid or tear trough to illuminate your eyes. Pair with matte shadows like those in Saigu's Terra palette and mascara for a soft, balanced finish.

Evening look: For something more dramatic, use intense shades such as blue, green or silver. Apply them over a black base with Urban Decay primer to set and enhance their intensity. Top it off with a black eyeliner, such as CORAZONA's Back on Black, to define your look.

Creative touch: Mix pigments with a sealer to create unique metallic eyeliners or to add extra shine to a gloss. You can also use them in small details for artistic and original looks.

Key tips:

• Apply pigments with a flat brush or your fingers for precision.
• Use a primer to ensure they adhere well and prevent fallout.
• Set the look with a setting spray to last all day, such as Maria Orbai's Dreamed Setting Spray.

Pigment Frequently Asked Questions

How do pigments adhere best?

For pigments to adhere and last longer, use a specific primer such as CORAZONA Magic Fix. Apply a small amount to the eyelid before applying the pigment with a flat brush or your fingers. This prevents them from falling off and enhances their intensity.

What are eye pigments?

They are highly concentrated colour particles that bring a unique brightness and intensity to your make-up. Unlike pressed shadows, pigments offer more vibrant and versatile finishes, ideal for bold or creative looks.

How to make eyeshadow more pigmented?

Use an eyeshadow primer to intensify the colours and prevent them from bleeding. You can also apply the pigment over a creamy base or with a brush dipped in fixative to enhance its pigmentation - the result will be spectacular!
