Lula

Lula is a muted, medium-dark taupe brown with neutral-to-warm undertones and a matte finish. The pigmentation was fully opaque, while the texture was smooth, not too thin, and it wasn't too firm or too soft in the pan, which made it the type of matte that was easy to apply and blend out while still getting true-to-pan coverage out of it. It wore for just over eight hours on me. Danessa Myricks Exposed (P, $18.00) is lighter (95% similar). Tarte Profesh (PiP, ) is cooler (95% similar). Huda Beauty Musk (PiP, ) is warmer (90% similar).
