MAC Blue Brown Pigment

Hey Dolls!

I wanted to share something with you dolls that I've had for forever but have been sleeping on it. A friend of mines gave me this MAC pigment that she got from a Holiday collection years ago... MAC Blue Brown Pigment!

MAC Blue Brown pigment is a duochrome color. A duochrome color is a color that shifts between 2 different colors. It's like getting 2 colors for the price of 1 ;0)


MAC Blue Brown pigment is brown with blue/green pearl


Here's a swatch of MAC Blue Brown Pigment without any base


Here's a swatch of MAC Blue Brown Pigment with a Black base


When you apply MAC Blue Brown pigment on top of a black base (I used NYX Jumbo eyeshadow pencil in Black bean) the green pearls in the pigment show up. I think this would make a gorgeous smokey eye.




I used MAC Blue Brown Pigment on the outer 1/2 of my lid which for some reason the brown look more reddish brown.

Here's the look I came up with using the pigment

I love Blue Brown Pigment! It reminds me of club e/s, but club is a tad bit darker!!! I have a look I want to do using Blue Brown, I just haven't done it yet, go figure! It also looks great with teals and greens!

Love the look doll!
