Emerald Ruins
Shades of green represent the most vivid and vital elements of nature and our formulation of the month recalls the lush, botanic life of thriving forests. This rich emerald hue glazed in subtle shimmer reminds us of hidden, ancient ruins that are brought back to life by the power of nature. Overgrown by vibrant greenery such as fresh moss and succulent leaves evokes the nostalgia of long past memories of ancient cultures.

Pigmentation
The PWC (Pigment Weight Concentration) in the dry film is indicated for each styling
PWC = p / (p + b)
p = total weight pigments (solid)
b = weight binder (solid)
In the dry state: Pigment / binder ratio = (Σ Pigment) / (Total solid content (wet form) – (Σ Pigment))
Feasibility for on-line application
The stylings in our color inspirations are intended to demonstrate future effect color directions and possibilities. Although we have tried to make the formulations as realistic as possible, we cannot guarantee their full feasibility for on-line application. A certain degree of modification and fine tuning will probably be necessary.
