Entremauve pigment is HOT when WET!!!

[roxybc]

So I was playing around with my goodies, and I opened Entremauve pigment and a bit spilled on my desk. I licked a tissue so it would stick better to it, and not smear everywhere, and low and behold Entremauve is the more gorgeous pigment when it is wet!!! I quickly went to do a comparison on my skin between the dry version and the wet using Lise Watier's version of a mixing medium. The wet is just stunning, you can see all the little flecks of pink and red in it. Has anyone else tried using it wet?? If not, I suggest you should!!!

Sounds gorgeous! I can't wait to get this pigment.

I only use my pigments wet. They are so much more vibrant & colorful. Entremauve is my new fave! HOT!!!

Ohh, I'm going to get out my Metamorfix, tomorrow! I'd like to do a taupe/entremauve look with a bright purple - it looked good as a crease, outer V thing, but the colors were muted.

i love it! i haven't tried it wet yet but it looks amazing dry so i can just imagine what it looks like wet. i'm hoping that they make it permanent or i'll just have to buy more before it's gone!

From what I hear it's almost identical to grape pigment which is always available at the Pro stores. I'm pretty sure there is a comparison swatch in the swatch request thread.

Yep, almost identical to grape, even wet. Although, grape has a tad more blue sparkle if you examine *really* closely. The difference, in my opinion, is negligible. However, I'm fine with this because I only had a smple of grape and having been wanting a f/s for a long time. Extremauve fits the bill.

I am going to try this wet tonight for our Halloween party. As far as it being close to grape, it is very close, but I like it better. It is just a tad more smokey with less blue tone in it

Oh yeah, it is eyesafe and grape isn't so it is better that way too.

They were very helpful to me!

Oh yeah!! This piggie is my new fave!! I’ve worn it 3 times since buying it Oct 19 and never thought to apply it wet. I ran to my traincase and tried it on wet. I had an OMG moment! It is even more beautiful wet! I am absolutely in love with this color. I’ve been trying to find a purple with this richness and depth of color for a number of years (yes! I mean years!). I was all set to order rich purple and grape piggies from Mac Pro in Sept. But I’m glad I waited for the Nocturnelle collection! Entremauve has probably eliminated (or at least for some time) satisfied my craving for a purple like this!). I love the texture, too! Goes on and blends so well!

I was wondering if I posted them or not, but since it wasn't my actual pic I wasn't sure. Anyways, I knew they were there, so I'm glad they helped!!!

ooo I can't wait to get my hands on this one!!!

 

[litlaur]

I absolutely adore this color

And I thought Grape wasn't eyesafe, that's part of the reason why I never bought it.

i tend to use most of my pigments wet, but have yet to try this one wet...but i'll have to try it i absolutely love this color.
