absinthetics Report post Posted November 22, 2015 (edited) Soft wings fluttering erratically – ceaselessly – in a trembling, slate-blue gloom. This blue is powdery but not periwinkle. I don't get violet at all, but there is a dark blue that is muted by a dark but powdery grey tone to it, It is very true to the picture you see. So far the staying power has been decent!

puck_nc Report post Posted December 6, 2015 Origin: Straight from the Post Initial Thoughts: As I was going through the Crimson Peak selection, I tried almost all the variations of blue offered. I hoped one of these might be close enough to UNC Carolina Blue for game day wear. In the bottle: A rich cerulean blue, tilting toward violet just a bit. One coat: This one definitely needs two coats. The first round is a very opaque and pale purple. Two coats: The color is firmed up, nicely and smoothly. Verdict: It's a bit too purple for what I was hoping for, but is an interesting light purple-blue. I may hang onto it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
