Voodoollama, Mehron has raised their prices here too. It was already
the most expensive water-based face paint makeup when you look at
number of applications per dollar, and it's gone up more now. Cost per
gram, Wolfe is more expensive, but it goes a lot longer ways. I don't
like it at all though.

Anyways, the Aquacolor Interfrenze Bronze is a *must have* shade, I
love that color. One thing to note about the Aquacolor Interfrenze is
it isn't a metallic with metallic pigment in the sense of other
metallics. It's a pearlescent pigment. Therefore, the resulting
texture and paintability of the product is much better and the results
are much smoother, and look *more* like real metal. At least the
Bronze. The silver doesn't impress me at all. Too pearl, too little
silver (coverage isn't great). The electric blue needs better coverage
too. But the bronze is amazing (those are the only 3 colors I have).

You'll quickly learn that each brand excels in some colors and falls
short in others.
