Pitaya

Clionadh Pitaya Fruitlighter ($18.00 for 0.10 oz.) is a darker, cooler-toned berry base with intense, metallic shimmer that shifted from green to teal to pink. It had a subtle multichrome shift when applied sheer and more moderately shift when applied more heavily (e.g. as an eyeshadow).

The texture was soft, smooth, and lightly creamy without being overly fragile, which made it easy to pick up with a brush and allowed it to diffuse evenly on the cheeks. I imagine that it may be “too” pigmented for some as a cheek product, and I’d definitely advise using a lighter hand in that case. It stopped just shy of emphasizing my skin’s natural texture but may be emphasizing on someone with more naturally textured skin. It stayed on well for nine hours before fading visibly.
