The Lush color formerly known as Quince is now……….POPPY!!!

“Oh good! Yes, Poppy is a much better name. Much more fun & it just sounds more ORANGE!”

[...said a wonderful customer just a few minutes ago!  Hence, this explanation of the name change...]

“Orange is the happiest of colors”  - Frank Sinatra

Color names are a funny thing; it can make or break a persons opinion of said color or product.  If you have ever studied color theory, you know what I’m talking about, and our products are no exception.  This is why we decided to re-name our color Quince to the fun-loving new Poppy color.

“The color orange creates a lot of controversy; it evokes strong emotion and is a color that people seem to either love or hate. Color experts agree that orange radiates warmth and energy.” – The Examiner
