Default Perfect Bubble Gum Pink?

Any ideas? Need opaque.

At this point COE doesn't matter ... I have 'em all

Have CIM Gelly Sty ... but it's a bit too light
Have Bullseye 301 ... but it's too dark
Have Reichenbach 96 ... but it's too dark too

I need a bright, rich bubblegum color ... suggestions please?

Thanks
Cheryl

What about actual Bubble Gum Pink Effetre? Maybe use some pink enamel?

Donna ... Thanks, that's an interesting idea ... have both and could give it a try.

Has anyone tried Bullseye petal pink? Is it about the same as Gelly Sty?

Thanks
Cheryl

I haven't tried the Bullseye - but we've had good luck with Effetre dark pink. It's pricier, and can be pretty shocky - but it's a nice, rich pink.

For bright bubblegum, try R66, Opal Bright Pink. R65 is als nice, but it's darker and more purple. (Still pink but darker). R151 is pinky pink. Like the cylinder/round bubblegum in the wrapper. (bazooka?). The stuff that loses flavor in like 17 seconds...

It is so much brighter than the color shown on their website, and very creamy and easy to work with.
