Suggested shadow and highlight colors for Pastel Violet, picked from the full catalog by color science — not paints you own. Shadows stay richer when they lean cool; pure black just flattens them. Highlights read best warmer and a touch softer than the base; pure white bleaches them out.

No good highlight suggestion — Pastel Violet is already near the edge of the catalog's value range, or nothing in the catalog is close enough to recommend.

A “great match” (deltaE < 3) is very close to the eye; a “close match” is a usable substitute. Finish, opacity, and coverage still differ between brands, so test on primer when it matters.
