All of the entries for the year 2020 were completed before March 2020. Most items were bought in, or before, 2019. And so, despite the pandemic where buying makeup is definitely a lower priority, I'm still publishing these posts.
TKB Trading’s Monochrome Cool Red

This is called “cool red”, and it is…sort of. It’s cooler than the other “monochrome red” sold by TKB Trading. It just isn’t as overtly blue-toned as I mentally prepared for. There are some fuchsia tones in this - so it leans toward rose red, but cooler and deeper pink-rose rather than deepest rose red. It applies well on dry skin, but mixed with water it applies very very smoothly and evenly. This isn’t quite as pigmented as Pigment Blue, but it’s close to Chromium Oxide Green. I got a faint skin-stain from this one, but that came off with a little more soap.
