Unhappy Where did the EVP go?

Has anyone found it difficult to find EVP purple 254? Is there a reason why it’s in short or no supply, besides covid? I finally am getting the hang on how to work with it, thanks to the threads I’ve read here. Not finding supply online.

Gone and in short supply due to heavy metals banned in production. You can still find it sometimes on the Facebook destash sites but it sells for premium prices. We all mourn a bit for its loss.

Do you mean EDP? From my understanding it was made with Arsenic so they were force to shut down production on it abruptly. Still my favorite. I have a stash, but when I use it I hold my breath and get as close to my ventilation as possible.

I hope hope hope that some company comes up with a replacement, although CIM will probably charge an arm and a leg. You don't see much from Effetre these days, wonder if they are ever going to have actual new colors?

I have found that, depending on how you want to use it, bubblegum with dk orchid enamel pulled into stringer isn't bad, just doesn't have the brightness.
