How can you make the MAC Pigments look not too shimmery?

I heard you can make the MAC pigments look not too shimmery by adding water or mixing medium (whatever that is) and some other stuff I can%26#039;t remember. Does anyone know if this works? Has anyone tried it b4? I%26#039;m thinking of using Frost Pigment in the near future and then I searched up reviews saying it was too frosty and too shimmery and I really like the color, it just that I want to get rid of the glitter.

the mac pigments arent really glitter. its actually more like shimmer, and im not so sure about putting water, but i guess that could work to make it less concentrated. your best bet though is to use the littlest possible so its not as glittery or shimmery. if you still think its too glittery or whatever, probably a matte shadow or something would work better.

mixing it with water will just intensify the colour


just don%26#039;t use too much and blend it well


maybe use a matte colour over the top to take away the glitteryness of it?
Reply:if you apply it wet or with mixing medium (make your own with 1/4 tsp of glycerin and 3/4 tsp of water, shake together and it will keep for 2 weeks. you can get glycerin in the first aid section of the drugstore) it will only intensify the color and the shimmer. If you like the color, who cares what some reviews said ... all pigments are shimmery. So love the shimmer or wear matte eyeshadow. If you add an eyeshadow or powder on top of the pigment, you will change it%26#039;s color. Sorry :(
