Beauty from the Earth’s Yellow Brick Road

Nice softer yellow pearl - not quite a primary yellow, but very very close. In the pot, this is exactly the color of the Yellow Brick Road! When applied to skin, either with or without primer, the color softens slightly. The wet application had some areas that were thinner, but the dry application rocked: solid even coverage, with excellent pigmentation. I'll have to check through my yellow eyeshadows to see if I have anything exactly like this - I think I have some that are close, but not quite exact.

This is definitely the main color in a look, or an accent shade. There's no way this can be used as a highlighter. There's too much pigmentation! (And personally, I love seeing that in a yellow eyeshadow. So many creams, pale yellows, soft dewy highlighter shades, but not nearly as many in-your-face sunny yellow eyeshadows, not even from indie vendors. You do find these brighter yellows here and there, but I see more golds and pale yellows than primary yellows.)
