Lan Mei Loose Eyeshadow Pigments

You can find these on ebay.

http://stores.shop.ebay.com/BtHWorld888__W0QQ_armrsZ1

Made in China. They are reasonably priced.
They don't have names for the colors, only numbers.







My favorite colors are #

41 (looks white, but turns lavender if used with a dark base)

13 (pretty dark bronze with gold reflects)

L'Oreal HiP Loose Eyeshadow Pigment Collection

I did not see these on the LorealParisUSA website. However, I still see them in stores. I purchased some of these on ebay and some during BOGO (Buy 1 Get 1 Free) sales at local drugstores.
I am missing only 2 that I'd like to add.
The white that reflects pink
as well as
the burgundy one. I probably don't need the burgundy one because it's rumored to be a dupe for MAC reflects blackened red, which I already own.

INTREPID (rumored to be a dupe for MAC Brown/Blue Pigment)
Reads differently, depending on what color base you use.

Lidia said it best when she said
"NONE of us would ever be able to use up an entire container of MAC Pigment.
It is best to share with friends when you acquire one."
Take her advice.
If you have makeup buddies, please, SHARE your pigments.

Treat people how you want to be treated & you will reap what you sow.
Pay it forward. You NEVER know, you may just make someone's day.
