TKB Trading’s Honey

Some people seem to love this color. It isn't a personal favorite…but I can see why people would love it. It's a softer tan-gold with enough sparkle to be flashy but not enough sparkle to veer into Terrifying Glitter Bomb territory - making it a “safe sparkle” color. It's a neutral that leans warm, but it's not so warm that cooler-toned folks can't wear it at all. I know that BFTE has this color for sale, unblended, with just some base mix added for improved adhesion - and it's wildly popular. People started asking for this to come back into the store almost as soon as BFTE v2 opened.

It isn't a huge favorite of mine, but that's largely because I like my colors to have more depth, or to be either satins or more sparkle-filled. It's totally down to personal preference. The color performs fine, it just isn't one that I reach for often. (This is an unblended mica, though, so make sure to use a primer and a light fixative.)
