I’ve been holding onto a sample of MAC Pigment in “Fuchsia” for a couple months now. I usually avoid bright pink and purple eye shadows from MAC, because some people (including myself) are sensitive to red pigment and certain ingredients. So I’ve been hesitant to try this particular pigment, but now I’m glad I did — I didn’t experience any irritation. Here’s my first look using this vivid pink pigment.

The only other bright pink/purple colors that I’m not allergic to are the ones in the Coastal Scents palette (and it’s the cheapest one too!). Make sure to test any new makeup you want to use on a small area of your wrist for a few hours just to be safe!
