My Pretty Zombie’s Devilled Egg

My Pretty Zombie’s Devilled Egg

When I read the color description, I immediately thought: “Going to be a near-dupe for Shiro's Pikachu.” I was right. The yellow pigmentation isn't as hefty in Devilled Egg, and the red sparkle seems to be about the same level; but the colors are extremely close. Overall, I prefer Pikachu...

This color looks more grey in the pot, but applied it looks like a faded slate grey. Another non-grey grey, a bit like Sparky - but I confess, I like Sparky better. (It's vaguely possible that these two are somehow tied together, since a quick Google turns up both terms...

Saturday Soundtrack: Sunyata (Vas / Azam Ali)

Saturday Soundtrack: Sunyata (Vas / Azam Ali)

As soon as I saw this color, I knew I wanted to get it. (Apparently I have started a coral-phase.) It's a little deeper than it looked on my monitor, but not drastically so. It's just a deeper coral, not pushed over into full “orange” territory.

It's supposed to be a sparkly shadow, I swear! Well, it is according to Silk Naturals' website. It looked that way in the pot. But when I applied it, I got this wonderfully dark blackened purple shade. I wonder if this was kind of what Drama Purple would have looked...

Aromaleigh v2’s Pasqua

Aromaleigh v2’s Pasqua

Posted on Thursday, at

There's a bit more red than orange in this color. It's also a little brighter than Aldebaran. They're fairly close, but there are slight differences. (Actually, I think Pasqua might be 1/3 of the way between Antares and Aldebaran - leaning closer to the former.) I like that this color is...
