Formula Overview
$29.00/0.24 oz. - $120.83 Per Ounce
The formula is supposed to have "soft, buildable color" with a "dewy, luminous finish" that has a "lightweight, non-sticky feel." The consistency was lightweight, lightly creamy--balmy with good spreadability and not overly emollient; definitely not sticky either. The pigmentation was sheer to semi-sheer, somewhat buildable, but if you're looking for a more medium to semi-opaque level of pigmentation, these might leave you wanting.
All of the shades I tested applied evenly on both bare skin as well as on top of foundation, as they were not prone to lifting base products. They never dried down and had a moderately dewy sheen that still had decent longevity. Most shades lasted around seven hours on me before fading, but they didn't seem to visibly slide around over time.

As much as I love this shade, I can only see potential disaster occurring while wearing something this balmy in our super hot environment here if one needs to venture outside!
OK – this was better quality than the last one, I really like the colour but the fact that it doesn’t dry down would annoy me.
