Formula Overview
$48.00/0.22 oz. - $218.18 Per Ounce
The formula is supposed to have a "silky" and "lightweight" texture that's long-wearing and have "buildable" intensity. The blushes had a smooth, lightweight consistency that was finely-milled, though not as silky as I would have expected, without being too powdery nor too firmly-pressed into the pan.
The majority of the shades I tested had medium, buildable pigmentation that was hard to over-do but could definitely be intensified for higher coverage if desired. They applied evenly and blended out without issue, and they seemed to sit well on my skin with a semi-matte finish or higher. The more shimmery shades were still more low-level and had a sheen rather than overt shimmer that yielded a more metallic finish.
On my skin, most of the hues I trialed lasted eight hours before showing signs of fading. There was a soft, floral scent to the powders.

Definitely not for me or anyone who is darker than perhaps a MAC NC20. It’s nice enough quality wise, but hopefully Dior comes out with something in this exact tone, but med to dark tan geared.
Pretty shade, might be too light for my skin tone.
This blush is in a tone and color that I am looking to expand into my collection but am hoping to find one that isn’t as powdery. I don’t have any of the dupes but will be looking while I am in Seattle. I don’t have anything even remotely close to this.
Yes, it does look a little more powdery and the shade colour is quite faint too.
