Formula Overview
$7.00/0.48 oz. - $14.58 Per Ounce
The formula is supposed to have "buildable coverage" with a "hint" of dewiness that can be applied with fingertips, sponge, or a duo fiber brush and is recommended to be applied prior to powder products.
The consistency was very fluid, and while it was sheerer by the nature of the fluidity of the formulation, you didn't need to squeeze out that much to get going. I would recommend squeezing out a bit on the back of your hand and gently rubbing it in a small circle using a fingertip, then applying to your face. This helped the product spread out and be the perfect level of tackiness to apply to bare skin or on top of foundation/base products without lifting them up. They had sheer to semi-sheer, buildable coverage.
They don't fully dry down, so the finish remained noticeably dewy (as the name might imply), and it didn't have the best wear (around six hours for better-performing shades), but the products faded evenly and didn't slide around/down my face.

It would seem like they improved the viscosity and pigmentation of these compared to the early iterations. Great shade for lighter skin depths, but I’ll be holding out for the deeper one!
I posted this before… But I think she just got a bad batch. I have some from the very early versions, such as in the cherry crush and lush life collections, and I love them, and they perform just as described here. You do have to mush them around at times, to make sure they are mixed in the tube. I think it would be wise in the future, if something performs really poorly but other reviews say otherwise, to try another batch. It’s a bit unfair to the company, in my opinion. It literally may have been error in production from just one day That escaped quality control, if part of quality control is not testing that involves personal use. It probably doesn’t. They just do things like viscosity and some other stuff… I’ve worked in cosmetic production. It happens.
