Yeah, the cool thing it's all the same principles no matter what colors
you're working with! Cools and warms, light and dark variations. It's just
about training the eye to see it in whatever color you're working with. :)

Thank you! I know sometimes you just can't see the details in the regular
shots. Always a bummer when that happens.

The applicators on the blending tool are made of foam (you can switch the
foam pads for use with different colors). The Tattered Angels girls actually
use paper towels whenever I watch them, not the blending tool. So if you're
only thinking about the tool for Glimmer Mist, try a sponge or paper towel
first before you invest in the blending tool. I'm actually really happy with
the tool myself and when I was using it yesterday I was thinking that if we
were to do another tool episode, that would be a tool I would definitely
recommend.

Glad you like that background! Izzy just got it. Brown is one of my best
colors but I was worried the video might have a traditional look to it. I'm
not really that traditional, so that was a concern for me, lol.

I wanted to let you know that I really like the addition of the “close-up” shots that yall have been incorporating to the last few episodes. It really helps to highlight the topic being presented and is a nice touch.

Thanks for that lesson in color. I will definitely need to practice. I have one comment and one question.

My question is what is the blending tool? Is it just a sponge. I don't have one and was wondering what I could use from around the house without having to buy a new tool. I haven't even invested in glimmer mist yet. But I do want to buy 1 or 2 colors to experiment.

My comment is that I like the brown background very much. It's much more complementary on the skin and look of the entire show. Not sure when you switched but I noticed it today.

Keep up the good work and I'm looking forward to the next PRT and future contests to get on the show as a guest :)
