Dearest Constant (Deep) is a medium-dark copper with balanced red-orange undertones and matte finish. The texture has a creaminess to it, almost silky to the touch without being powdery... yet being very readily picked up and blended out. The color itself is not the Most Unique, but the way it sits on skin is particularly flattering.
Inspiration: I wanted something with enough depth to work on dark skin tones as a crease/transition shade that was more neutral but still had some color to it that would work with several of the hues in the palette.
Behind the Name: It is in reference to my husband, who is a constant source of love, support, and comfort in my life.
Development
This shade wasn't part of my original color concept but was added when it was extended from 10 to 12-shades. It was described as a "matte copper-orange" -- I wanted something not too orange, not too red and a little muted, which was exactly what I got in the second round of loose color samples. Once this went to being hand-pressed, the texture was overly firm. The fourth, machine-pressed version was the right color and balance in firmness/softness. This was the Deep version.
