Formula Overview
$9.50/0.317 oz. - $29.97 Per Ounce
The Signature Ombre Blush is supposed to have a "silkly formula that easily blends" while having "high pigment payoff." The key takeaway with the formula is that it had incredibly high pigmentation, so those who tend to be heavy-handed with blush may find this harder to work with. Those who prefer more pigmented formulations will likely enjoy this formula.
One really needed a light tap of product for application, but in order to get an even mix/swirl of the gradient of shades, you really had to swirl the brush and pick up quite a bit of product, so I'd recommend tapping off excess and potentially using a second, clean tool for blending out.
The powder was smooth, finely-milled, and blendable and was fairly forgiving, despite the high color payoff. They applied evenly and stayed on well for eight to nine hours on me.

This one is a little too neon for me now. Definitely something I would have worn, probably even did, back in the 80’s I’m thinking.
I like the ombre nature of the blush and the quality is excellent, I am going to be looking for a shade colour that’s right for me in this range.
