How to Turn Loose Pigments into Budge-Proof Cream Shadows

Want to turn your Loose Multichrome Pigments into creamy, longwear magic? Here’s how to create your own custom cream or gel shadows using our Gel Primer—perfect for eyes, cheeks, or lips.

1. Tap a small amount of pigment onto a mixing surface or the back of your hand.Add a drop of Gel Primer and mix until you get a smooth, creamy consistency.

2. Use a dense, flat brush to apply in stamping motions wherever you want the colour.

3. Let it dry down—once set, it’s crease-proof, flake-free, and seriously locked in.

Bonus: It works beautifully across eyes, cheeks, and lips for a cohesive, high-impact look.

This method is ideal for anyone who loves cream textures but wants the colour payoff and sparkle of a pigment.
