Okay, so you bought your pigment, now what? Well, here's just some of the ways you can use it:
Eyes - Using a base such as Urban Decay Primer Potion or whatever you prefer, just a few "grains" of pigment give a rich colour on the lid. If you prefer, mix with water or a mixing medium (I use old saline eye drops) to form a sort of paint if you like, and achieve a really vivid "wow" affect not for the faint-hearted! I also like using a liner brush with one of the more vibrant colours to make a change from dull-coloured eye liner.
Lips - Either mix the desired amount of pigment with the gloss or balm of your choice, or add gloss to your lips, dab on a bit of pigment and layer gloss over the top. Now that winter is upon us and my lips are pretty sore, I've been using melon pigment mixed with a Body Shop Born Lippy balm (mango). The colours are really similar so it was tricky to mix in a good amount (a clear balm would be much better), but the affect is a nice subtle shimmer which still moisturises my lips.
Nails - You can either mix pigment in with a clear polish or dab/sprinkle on top before it has dried, and then add a clear top coat. If you choose to mix pigment with a polish, you will need to have a ball-bearing in the bottle (often seen in glittery polishes) otherwise it won't mix properly. You can pick up ball-bearings at craft or hobby shops.
Cheeks - Dab a little onto your cheek in a line (think war paint) and blend with a brush. This also applies to highlight colours - vanilla makes a nice alternative to Benefit's High Beam and at the same price you get a hell of a lot more use for it.
Body shimmer - Add a dab of moisturiser to the back of your hand and mix in a little of your desired colour. Mix for a shimmer wherever you desire it!
As you can see, your imagination is pretty much the limit. A full-size pigment is 7.5g (just over a quarter of an ounce) and this will really, honestly, last you forever. You can also sometimes find smaller "charm" pigments although these are a lot rarer. So, choose your colour wisely and money well spent.
SOME REVIEWS ( U.S )

MAC pigment = wonder product. You can mix this stuff with anything, in any concentration you like from natural to dramatic, and it can be anything - eyeshadow, eyeliner, blush, lip gloss - you name it. Just pick a color and you're all set.
UnCoverGirl
This is the perfect eyeshadow. Can give your eyes a bold, professional, and fun look. My favorite colors are the violet, rose, golden yellow, and the one that is beigish. I tend to wear them almost with every outfit, but if you are in a more professional setting you may want to try a lighter color like the "nude" or just a slight dab of the eyeshadows.
Ever since I have uses mac pigments I find it hard to go to other shadows, unless I use them for the upper parts of the eye since I blend. Of course MAC is very expensive, so I don't tend to purchase their stuff directly from the MAC store, your best bet is to go there. Also the little jars last forever and are great to mix and blend! The color is even more vibrant when you apply the pigment on wet. Also, you can use some of the colors as blush or for your lips if you want.

I love love love MAC pigments. They have a very cool shimmer effect so the color changes ever so slightly when you move around. Very fun product. I highly recommend it.
