Fun & Games: Name Game #002
How to play: Create color names, descriptions, and even texture/finishes for the four colors shown in the quad to the left!
What I’d call it:
Spilled Sun Vibrant yellow-gold with white pearl (Veluxe Pearl)
Tropical Truth Bold mint green with yellow shimmer (Frost)
Dirty Sand Deep, warm chocolate brown (Matte)
Shimmering Flats Soft aqua-blue with white pearl (Frost)
Now, it’s your turn!
Can’t wait to see what you all come up with! You’re always so creative!
Sweet Tooth Collection

Brunette-Sheer shimmery yellow
Redhead-Pure neon matte green
Blondie-Frosty azure
Raven-Dark smooth brown
Yes–I’m guilty, I stereotyped for this one. The shadow colors are eye colors and the names are the names of what kind of hair people with those eye colors usually have…just a random idea that I got when I saw this. (About the yellow, I was thinking “amber eyes”.)
Hey, that’s still a very cool concept 😀

Fields of Green – Vibrant midtone green (satin)
