Focus On is a work in progress. Have you ever talked yourself out of buying a product because the color was too odd, and you wondered how often you would really be able to use it? Or, you know those colors you LOVE because of some hidden versatility that you never imagined when you bought it? I do that ALL of the time. In the interests of loving what I HAVE, and learning its limitations, rather than relying on the influx of new colors, I will be doing this post every Saturday, focusing on a new color from my collection, with examples of past work, ideas for other uses. Please feel free to suggest colors you wish to see, or uses for the ones listed, or let me know what your favorites are for future posts.
Poison Plum is a matte purple with a strong magenta note.

Across the Stars is a pale, icy pink with a metallic finish, and larger pieces of silvery sparkle/shimmer.
Low Lights is a metallic cream. It has some irregular shimmer, and gold tones, but is overall a nude shade.
Both of these colors handle fairly similarly, and the technique for using them is pretty much the same.

Goldilux is a bright, metallic, sparkly true gold. It’s slightly yellower than my preferences run, but is flattering on many skin tones, and can be used many ways.

Aztec Gold is a VERY unusual color. It has a deep leafy green base like oxidized copper. The presiding color, though, is PURE yellow gold. It’s beautiful. It can be worked with greens, or with golds.

Lumi is a sparkling white pigment laden with teal sparkles. It changes color over colored bases, or can be used to add sparkle to pretty much anything!
