Fair Skinned, Redheaded Girl Needs Pigment Help

First, I did a search - a high and low search and could not for the life of me find what I needed. There used to be a thread out there for fair-skinned ladies and I couldn't find that either. I love the "what's your favorite pigment post" but there are 479 replies and I'm a NW15 with red hair (deeper, auburn kind of color) and how many of us are out there. Would it be possible for us fair skinned ladies to have our own little place on the forum?

Here's my question: I'm going to buy some pigments. I currently have vanilla and melon - safe bets. I'm looking to add at least 10 or so to my collection, not all at the same time, but frankly I am more than overwhelmed after I've looked at all the swatches that are out there. I'm am not afraid of color, but I do not care for bright and wild colors such as chartruese, red, orange or purple. I am looking at shades in the plum, steel blue, duochrome, neutral, gold kind of colors that will compliment my blue/grey eyes. I'm also interested in golden olive. The point is, I don't have a store near me, I have a counter. I need some advise on pigments that will be complimentary for me - I simply could not get that information out of the post that is so popular considering all the differing skin tones and eye colors. If this is repetitive and needs to be moved, by all means move it or delete it!

I too have dark red hair and blue eyes, along with fair skin. I have and love to use: Jardin Aires, Mutiny, Pink Opal and Bell Bottom Blue pigments. I believe all of these are limited edition though. I think Golden Olive, Cornflower and Blue Brown would look great on you and these are all in the perm collection. I hope this helps.

There are actually a few threads for porcelain beauties:

More pertinent to the topic, I would recommend...well, Steel Blue (since you specifically mentioned it), Blonde's Gold, Museum Bronze, Chocolate Brown, Circa Plum, Emerald Green, Cocomotion, Golden Lemon, and Naval Blue...I could really go on forever. Your best bet would be to check out the pigment swatch forum: http://www.specktra.net/forum/f217/p...watches-72198/. There are some really great swatches there.

There are tons of Porcelian Beauties posts, I hope that someday maybe we can get our own section like the lovely Beauty of Color ladies! Anywho, I have darkish red hair and I am NC15. I love pink opal, teal, golden olive, naked, any of the gold ones, and violet. Violet looks amazing with my hair and skin! HTH!

Another uber-pale redhead here; I don't wear a ton of pigments, but I do like Old Gold, Sweet Sienna, Fairylite, and Violet.
