Bright Eyes actually is known for this. In fact I understand it's difficult to find her without pigmentation problems. The pooling purple inside her sealed neck is proof that it's her own pigmentation separating. As hathorcat mentioned, the only thing you can do for her is make sure you clean her fairly regularly as this is going to continue happening.
Personally, I've always wondered if there is a way to slow the process. I know salt helps set dyes, so I have a wild totally unscientific theory that perhaps a salt bath might help Bright Eyes but I don't have the appropriate chemical knowhow to decide if it's a good idea or not. The salt might have other unwanted effects. I also don't have Bright Eyes yet to try it out on.
