And since Michele mentioned this - besides a pink dress, what would one use OH Brilliant Pink for? Sounds like one of those "scary colors" (think pthalo).

Brilliant pink is not really that useful as a color straight out of the tube but is very helpful in mixtures. I use it to cool down light areas, especially to prevent skintones from getting too orange. It's also handy in features that are normally warm but where you don't want them actually red, or orange.
I also use Pthalo green in the same way: not as a color straight out of the tube, but to cool down some darks. Pthalo isn't on my palette that often, though, because it has such pigment power that it gets into everything if you're not careful. Brilliant Pink isn't that powerful.
