Who has the "reddest" metallic or pearl red?
I need to finish up my ordering for Christmas. I already have a metallic green, white and wine, but I need a red. I have heard that a lot of the metallic reds are more orange or pink. Who has the closest to true red? My green is DFX, and the others are Tag.

Paradise cherry bomb metallic is a nice one, but it is a dark red, not bright... and TAG pearl red is the first metallic red that is really red...

tag pearl, I like it, and it goes on really nice. It is my go to for red lipstick too.
Re: Who has the "reddest" metallic or pearl red?
I've used Tag Pearl Red & Paradise Red & like both. I think Paradise is a truer red than Tag, but Tag is shinier.

Gotta say as a paradise lover I was interested in the responses to this ... Unfortunately I have the Paradise metallic red and me no likey. I use it for iron man and it isn't anywhere near as shiny as I would like.... I just saw a pic of spiderman done with Tag metallic red and I actually asked the artist what she used cause it looked quite pink.
I wish Merhon would bring out a metallic powder in red and purple and green lol cause their silver and gold powders kick butt on any paints I have seen. Oh well I'll keep dreaming.....

Tash is right about the Tag you can get it red but you have to use twice as much and I myself a lover of Tag, 95% of my paints are TAG am not impressed buy the tag metalic red.
The one thing I can say about it is it dosn't stain skin as bad as the Tag normal red.
This was done about a month ago in tag metalic red and had to use more paint than I would with normal red - My son is the biggest pain in the bum to paint (so excuse line work) I have only ever met one kid worse than him so far.
This is my 5th face paint ever (Darth maul). applied badly as I didnt know techniques
back then it is very thin (stroked on in places) but you will get the idea
but I am a little disapointed as I am not seeing a major difference and the metalic isn't exactly poping to me

Just wondering if you used a split cake of Tag Pearl Red and Wolfe red? (I don't have the Tag or I would try...)
Re: Who has the "reddest" metallic or pearl red?
anniel if that Question is at me -
No I don't have wolfe except in black and white, but at festivals I have been loading normal red then the metalic red on top just to speed up the process as it can come out pinkish unless you pile it on - this sort of gets rid of the problem of laying it on forever (and time is money). I am getting through the metalic cake so I can try a diffrent one. I am happy with the Tag Regular red though. I just find that the pearl it isn't very shiny, and If I am buying a pearl/metalic I want shine for the extra $$$.
