Hi, i've only just started trying different cover powders, finding it hard to get one thats a nice colour on it's own so last time I mixed a bit of white pearl coloured pigment powder with it and that looked nice, sorry haven't tried mixing a glitter with it yet but NSI have a product called Opal Shimmer (i'm sure other brands would have something similar) that would probably look nice too. Sorry hope that makes sence, I think I just confused myself :lol: :lol:
