Hmmm guessing it's all the look you want...I'd think the silvers wouldn't take hardly any to get em to show...While the reds, you might have to lay a bit more on...Seems the red would be more ghostly tho cuz they'll blend with the base more...Silvers will always be contrasting...Still look cool though, just depends on what yer feelin:D

I,ve Allways been a fan of gold on red Rt . Very thin though . But of coarse I,d say that Cuz You dont have any. hehe. I,ve also Played with mixing the powders to Create My own Blend. Just not a good idea to mix Brands IMO . The Silvers to Me seemed to add More of a Metallic look to it Then Pearl. Best of luck However You decide to go.
