Beauty from the Earth’s Java Junkie

A very very soft brown, right on the edge of being a yellow - and that largely due to the sparse gold shimmer. The actual color is kind of greyed, and very light. I have used this as an inner-vee highlighter and wasn't happy with the results, but I suspect that a) I don't have the right skintones to use this as an inner-vee highlighter; and b) it's a bit too pigmented, with too sparse a shimmer. It's got good, solid color payoff - makes a nice browbone color or all-over shade.
