			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Hi pretty things! <img src='http://alluringgirlblog.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>
<p>I&#8217;ve had some requests to do some swatches of my MAC pigment collection.  It&#8217;s a small-ish collection, but still growing.  I have kind of become addicted to them, and I love dabbling around, trying different ways of blending them.</p>
<p>Since I will never use a full jar in this lifetime, I keep some for me, and sell the rest in 1/4 teaspoon sample sizes.  If you want to see what each shade looks like in the container, the description, collection, etc,  you can check them out <strong><a href="http://www.alluringgirl.com/makeup/travel-size-pigment-samples.html" target="_blank">here</a></strong>.</p>
<p>I tried keeping the lighting consistent from picture to picture; hopefully I was successful with that.  This is my first attempt at doing swatches, so comments and constructive criticism are very welcome. <img src='http://alluringgirlblog.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' />   You can click the image for a slightly larger version.</p>
<p>I can tell you that sometime between now and the end of the year, I will be giving a lucky someone a sample of each of these shades.  So keep an eye out for that announcement.</p>
<p>Cocomotion and Aire-de Blu are a couple of my personal favorites.</p>
<p><a href="http://alluringgirlblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/11/1.jpg" target="_blank"><img class="size-full wp-image-89  alignnone" title="MAC Pigment Swatches Cocomotion, Circa Plum, Brash &amp; Bold, Aire-de-Blu" src="http://alluringgirlblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/11/1.jpg" alt="MAC Pigment Swatches Cocomotion, Circa Plum, Brash &amp; Bold, Aire-de-Blu&quot;" width="500" height="273" /></a></p>
<p>Fairylite is gorgeous, but hard for me to really capture in a picture.</p>
<p><a href="http://alluringgirlblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/11/2.jpg" target="_blank"><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-94" title="MAC Pigment Swatches Fairylite, Dark Soul, and Entremauve" src="http://alluringgirlblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/11/2.jpg" alt="MAC Pigment Swatches Fairylite, Dark Soul, and Entremauve" width="500" height="259" /></a></p>
<p>Here&#8217;s a close-up that will maybe help give you a better idea.</p>
<p><a href="http://alluringgirlblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/11/3.jpg" target="_blank"><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-95" title="MAC Pigment Sample Fairylite" src="http://alluringgirlblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/11/3.jpg" alt="MAC Pigment Sample Fairylite" width="500" height="269" /></a></p>
<p>Golden Lemon is very versatile, and I use it a lot when playing around.</p>
<p><a href="http://alluringgirlblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/11/4.jpg" target="_blank"><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-96" title="MAC Pigment Swatches Gilded Green, Gold Stroke, Golden Lemon, Heritage Rouge" src="http://alluringgirlblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/11/4.jpg" alt="MAC Pigment Swatches Gilded Green, Gold Stroke, Golden Lemon, Heritage Rouge" width="500" height="249" /></a></p>
<p>From just looking at the jars, I didn&#8217;t think that Kitschmas and Helium were as close shade-wise as that they are.  I think Helium is prettier, but Kitschmas could certainly dupe for it.</p>
<p><a title="MAC Pigment swatches Melon, Lovely Lily, Kitschmas, Helium" href="http://alluringgirlblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/11/51.jpg" target="_blank"><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-99" title="MAC Pigment swatches Melon, Lovely Lily, Kitschmas, Helium" src="http://alluringgirlblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/11/51.jpg" alt="MAC Pigment swatches Melon, Lovely Lily, Kitschmas, Helium" width="500" height="273" /></a></p>
<p>Mmmmmm&#8230;.Pink Opal.  It&#8217;s soooooooo prettiful!</p>
<p><a href="http://alluringgirlblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/11/6.jpg" target="_blank"><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-100" title="MAC Pigment Swatches Naval Blue, Old Gold, Pastorale, Pink Opal" src="http://alluringgirlblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/11/6.jpg" alt="MAC Pigment Swatches Naval Blue, Old Gold, Pastorale, Pink Opal" width="500" height="296" /></a></p>
<p>This batch has a couple of glitters.</p>
<p><a href="http://alluringgirlblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/11/7.jpg" target="_blank"><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-101" title="MAC Pigment Swatches Push The Edge &amp; Rose, MAC Glitter Swatches Reflects Blue and Reflects Transparent Teal" src="http://alluringgirlblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/11/7.jpg" alt="MAC Pigment Swatches Push The Edge &amp; Rose, MAC Glitter Swatches Reflects Blue and Reflects Transparent Teal" width="500" height="269" /></a></p>
<p>Vanilla seems to be a very popular shade, based on the orders I get for it.</p>
<p><a href="http://alluringgirlblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/11/8.jpg" target="_blank"><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-102" title="MAC Pigment Swatches Sweet Sienna, Smoke Signal, Teal, Vanilla" src="http://alluringgirlblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/11/8.jpg" alt="MAC Pigment Swatches Sweet Sienna, Smoke Signal, Teal, Vanilla" width="500" height="300" /></a></p>
<p>And here&#8217;s the last of the lot&#8230;</p>
<p><a href="http://alluringgirlblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/11/9.jpg" target="_blank"><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-103" title="MAC Pigment swatches Violet, Viz-a-Violet, Copperclast, Mutiny, White Gold" src="http://alluringgirlblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/11/9.jpg" alt="MAC Pigment swatches Violet, Viz-a-Violet, Copperclast, Mutiny, White Gold" width="500" height="252" /></a></p>
