Note: in 2012, the lineup was changed. The new (current) collection is listed first. If you’re looking for old favorites, though, head down and view the old collection listing.
Color names based on the videogame Portal. Which, based solely on some of the names, sounds a wee bit Paranoia-esque. This was the first collection launched with Shiro’s new website. My favorites from this collection thus far are Aperature Laboratories, Are You Still Here, Enrichment Center, For Science, Huge Success, Impossible, Shall Not Be Mourned, There Will Be Cake, Triumph, and You Were Adopted. All swatches are dry shadow patted over primer. (Lots of other folks will be doing foiled or wet swatches, so I figure a contrast is good. Plus you can see the color payoff - these are not only bright when foiled!!)

A Neat Gun — sheer ocean blue with orange sparkle
