Bronzing powder color

[Jon Page]

That is the name on the can I ordered from S&S.  A much better price too, 
thanks;
But I doubt if I'll ever go through a pound of it.

However, I found the color a little too dark and added some pale gold 
lining powder
to lighten it up. It is a beautiful rich color now.
