Makeup Geek Duo Chrome Pigments (Swatches & Review)

Hello everyone! I hope you all are having a great day so far!


Today I'm sharing with you some photos of the new Makeup Geek Duo Chrome Pigments. I'm also including a quick review since I'm posting an in depth video here on my channel tomorrow morning.

Makeup Geek launched 8 new duo chrome pigments and 12 duo chrome eyeshadows last month. I was able to snag the pigment bundle set before it sold out. It will be in stock sometime in the near future. For more information regarding that, tune into the Makeup Geek Cosmetics Instagram page.

These new pigments have jars that are clear with a metallic gray embossed cap. The overall look is very sleek and pretty. However, the quality of material that went into making these jars, is very poor. With each pigment retailing $12 individually, which honestly is pretty steep for the Makeup Geek brand; you should receive better quality for that price point. Many of us have experienced cracked jar that were either shipped with cracks or have gotten cracks from repeated use.

Below are photos of my jars (except for Insomnia-packaging was fine) so you can see the damage.

::Pigment Descriptions::

Wildfire: dark pink base with gold duo chrome 

Hologram: orange base with greenish gold duo chrome

Kaleidoscope: blue-ish gray base with pink, teal and purple duo chrome

Mood Ring: gray base with purple duo chrome

Sugar Rush: white base with blue, purple and pink duo chrome

Apart from the obvious cracking issues, these pigments are beautiful. They are very unique and I don't have anything like this in my makeup collection. If you are looking to purchase a few and need recommendations, here are my picks: Kaleidoscope, Sugar Rush, Wildfire and Chameleon. 

I hope this quick review was helpful. If you have any questions and/or comments please let me know. Be on the look out for that in depth video tomorrow morning :) 

Thanks for stopping by,
