Alba

Natasha Denona Alba Duo Glow ($38.00 for 0.35 oz.) is a light-medium pink-coral with warm, golden shimmer for a luminous sheen. It had good pigmentation that was nearly opaque in one layer, but it easily built up with less than half of a layer on top. The consistency was smooth and lightly creamy to the touch, but it felt firmer and denser, so it worked better with a moderate hand or moderately dense brushes over more feathery ones.

It’s supposed to have an “intense” finish, but it was more luminous without being metallic or sparkly, and I’d describe it as more light-to-moderate in its intensity. The powder applied evenly and blended out with little effort. It stayed on nicely for eight and a half hours before fading slightly on me.

We appreciate enthusiasm for new releases but ask readers to please hold questions regarding if/when a review will be posted as we can't commit to or guarantee product reviews. We don't want to set expectations and then disappoint readers as even products that are swatched don't always end up being reviewed due to time constraints and changes in priorities!

Medium, Olive, neutral undertones. Combination skin.

I think that Ms. Denona is listening to your wish for more Duo Glows, Christine! Or at least I hope so!
This looks just like something else I would wear to absolute death just like I have done with MAC Oh My, Passion. It gets a resounding “YESSS” from me!

Lightest, Neutral undertones. Normal-to-Oily skin.

Breathtaking. ND is going to make it hard to resist their blushes, I see.
