Moonstone- what a fascinating color. When used dry, the base is a light warm taupe color, and the shimmer is platinum color. When used wet, the base is a medium warm taupe color and a charcoal gray base suddenly appears as well. Blended with the platinum shimmer, the effect is very fascinating.
I love this color. It is metallic, but warm at the same time. Really one of the most beautiful pigments in the metallic line that I have ever seen. I have not seen anything like it in any pigment line.
I have heard that MAC Platinum was beautiful, but I am not sure if it has the same charcoal gray and medium warm taupe base tones to it as this does.
If this is your first sweetscents review....
If you want to check out these pigments, they are about $2 each for a 10g jar (MAC wants $18.50 for a 7.5g jar) and the quality is as good as MAC in most of the colors.
Go to http://www.sweetscents.com/mica_2.html and look for Mica Pack Combos at the bottom of the page.
Some of the colors that I am reviewing are not on the site yet, it is supposed to be revamped soon. You can talk with the sweetscents lady via phone or email (it is on the site) and tell her that you read my review of the color if you do not see it on the site (she knows me by now since I ask endless questions- I am the artist capri) and that way she will not wonder how you knew about the color.
She will also help you find colors you might like if you tell her what you like or are looking for. That is how I found so many awesome colors. She is a pigment addicts DREAM!
