the label. The product includes color additives that are not approved for usage on the eyes per the
FDA.
Some color additives in "Pigments" have no usage restrictions in the EU, per CosIng, and can be used on the
eyes. We recommend checking ingredients to confirm current safety assessment/restrictions:

A3 (Norvina Mini Vol. 2) is a light-medium orange with strong, warm undertones and a semi-matte finish. There was barely-there pearl throughout that seemed to give it a less-than-matte finish when applied and blended out. The texture seemed a bit drier than average for a matte formula, but it wasn't as dry as other shades and was easier to use overall. It had opaque color payoff that applied evenly and stayed on well for seven and a half hours for me.
