TKB Trading’s Manganese Violet

This is a deeper version of “Easter-candy” purple. It doesn’t lean quite as red as it looks in the pot. It’s fairly close to a neutral purple. The texture and lack of binders in this colorant means that while it can be used as a color cosmetic, you’ll be happiest if you use a mixing medium, and possibly a primer and sealant.

I think that I have nail polishes that are this shade, and I have some eyeshadows that I thought would be this shade but applied much less saturated.
