Formula Overview
$49.00/0.19 oz. - $257.89 Per Ounce
The formula is supposed to have "buildable, long-lasting color," which was somewhat true. I'd argue that they were pigmented enough that using a light-to-moderate hand was key to getting more buildable color application, but they were very blendable and more forgiving if one went overboard with the initial application of product.
The blushes had a smooth, silky texture that was thin without being clingy, so the powder picked up evenly with a brush and deposited for even, blended color with little effort. They wore around eight hours on average.

Looking at the Dupe List just a moment ago, I was reminded that I have MAC Fleur Power on my WL, and it probably has been sitting there for a bit! Well, now I have an excuse to get it, because I love this type of pink, but not $49 much. MAC’s at $24 and being a tad deeper is so much more appealing.
Another pink blush that I think would work on my porcelain skin tones. Very pretty.
