Formula Overview

$35.00/0.28 oz. - $125.00 Per Ounce

The formula is described as a "buildable and blendable creamy powder" that will add "warmth and glow" that won't fade and is "colour-true" for 24-hours, while it won't settle or crease for 12-hours. It is touted as waterproof and sweat- and humidity-resistant.

The consistency was lightweight, thin, and a little on the drier side, but the powders blended out surprisingly well over bare skin and on less matte base products. The pigmentation was medium and buildable, as marketed, and I felt like it was easy to control how much I wanted, while the coverage layered well. These had only subtle pearl/sheen, and unless it was more heavily applied, it didn't add a lot of glow.

I typically get around eight hours of wear out of more powder-based products like blush, bronzer, and so on, and these lasted around nine hours before fading noticeably and seemed to fade more slowly compared to many powders I've tried, but 24-hour wear was a stretch.
