Silk Naturals’ Sorbet

Either a medium-dark pink or a light pink-red…I'm not entirely sure which. The color payoff is good, but this is a lighter shade of pink/red - so it won't pack the visual punch of a color like Geisha Chrome or X-Mas Special. Good to use when a standard pink is too soft, but a fuchsia is too much. Like all the Chrome shadows, it's got a nice metallic finish when foiled, and a shimmer finish even when applied dry. This shade doesn't blend as easily as the other Chrome shades I have, though - and I'm not quite sure why. I get better effects when I blend other colors over this one, than when I try to blend this color into the ones next to it.
