Default Favorite Pink for Stinger

Yes it's me again asking another color question. I have tried to pull several of the 104 colors and add as Mediium size stringer; unfortunetly they don't pull to a true pink; fade or wash out. Ok to purchase stringer. Want to add it on red, orange, and black.

Thanks for your help.

Sue

If I remember correctly from PTF, rubino reacts with orange. If that's right, you'd have to put a layer of clear between. Passionate pink, which unfortunately is no longer available, made a nice opaque pink stringer imo.

Reichnbach opal raspberry comes in both 96 and 104. It is luscious as stringer or otherwise.

Gely Sty rocks for me. A newbie might have trouble with encasing rubino.
