It seemed by the swatches on your arm, that they are very light. Did you apply it lightly? How is the pigment on these?

There is no plastic, flip-up cover, like the kind that flip up on color displays on counters. It did come with a plastic throw-away cover, but it's not the kind you'd use for anything because it's a single piece.<br /><br />I have never had a big problem keeping colors Charlestongirlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08269794937743797142noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1905173831662671321.post-46316269251984019192011-11-10T17:33:09.371-05:002011-11-10T17:33:09.371-05:00Charlestongirl,
