Obsessive Compulsive Cosmetics Loose Pigments in Dope and LaFayette

Dope and Lafayette Loose Pigments (Colour Concentrate Pigments) were also sent to me to try by www.cocktailcosmetics.co.uk. These are intensely pigmented metallic loose pigments that can be used on the face and body.

Dope is a warm orange bronze, and Lafayette is a golden moss green. They are swatched below dry, on my dry skin.
Picture of Lafayette applied to my eye. I'm wearing no base underneath it, and applied with the MAC 239 eyeshadow brush. It applies evenly and easily and lasts well too.  Cocktail Cosmetics also sell the OCC primer here OCC Primer which I'm considering buying; the pigments apply very well on their own so I'm intrigued to see how they'd look over the primer. 
I'm not wearing liner or mascara in this picture as I had a stinking cold when I took it and prefer to avoid mascara when my eyes are streaming (so apologies for the unfinished look). This is also the reason for no full face picture; I look like death, and not cute Neil Gaiman Death, but take me out with a head shot as I stumble towards you groaning 'braaiiins' walking death.

  5. Thanks for the sympathy, ladies :)

    The OCC pigments tend to get overlooked with the OMGthey'resocool Lip Tars, but they're very good.
