The color is a nice shimmery pinkish purple to me and I think this would be nice to be use as a highlight for the brow bone or an all over color on days when I'm too lazy to do eye make-up. At...

Ahh… Helium, my very first pigment ever. With Helium, my love affair with pigments began. Although it’s not my favorite pigment, I’ve started to love it a lot more than when I first bought it. ...

It looked very pretty light pink n the jar but not on my lids. I get strong purple and red cast and it doesn't looked good on me. I think this just doesn't suit my coloring, perhaps this would look...

Helium looks like pink Kitschmas, however, it is less chunky & frosty. It's nice near the tear duct, as a brow highlighter or as a wash over the entire lid. It goes well over pink and lilac...

Pink/Violet/Lavender sparkle with some red reflective quality. Super pretty, but not the greatest texture...chunky and mostly sparkly. Can appear more opaque over the deep-pink Shadestick...forget...

At first I was worried about this pigment from all the "too chunky" reviews, but I adore it. I use it wet with a little Fix+ and brush it all over my lid to my browbones when I do a pastel purple...

I have love this stuff on my nails, lips, and eyes. It's my most usable pigment color. (I do have a love affair with pinks.)

Very pretty & quite surprising. It looks quite chunky in the jar but applies smoothly and blends well. Lots of pink undertones but not overwhelming. Looks great as a highlighter or a wash. I...

I'm a bit disappointed with Helium. It's a beautiful color but I'm having a lot of trouble getting it to work for me, primarily because it's so chunky. I usually go for more finely-milled MAC...

I got this in a sample size online and it was love at first sight (and first test) for me!!! It looks intimidatingly glittery in the pot but the glitter specks aren't too obvious when applied. It's...

As always i hate the packaging (MAC please add at least a shifter to the top), besides that this pigment is actually not as exciting as i though it would be. it's similar to kitschmas but has big...

Let me start by saying I own Kitschmas and Pink Opal, and this is different than both of them. It's very similar to Kitschmas, except where Kitschmas is more blue toned on me, Helium's red tones...

This is a difficult one for me. The texture isn't great but the colour is gorgeous, and the texture is why I knocked a lippie off. I think if you can deal with the bad texture, this is a fabulous...

Wow! HELIUM turned me off at the MAC counter because I don't really like chunky pigments... you know, the ones with lots of fallout? This would be one of them (hence, one lippie deducted).<p> ...

Love it! It's such a pretty pale iridescent pink/purplish shade. The way it looks when the light reflects it is just luminescent. I love to pair it with other purples esp. violet and entremauve...
