Contrachroma (Highlighter) is a light peach with strong, warm undertones and a luminous sheen. It had a soft, more powdery texture, though it felt finely-milled, there was a dryness to it. Thankfully, this didn't translate into a dry application; the powder applied evenly, blended out with ease, and softened the look of my natural skin texture.
It had more semi-opaque coverage that sheerer, more buildable coverage, though one could certainly use a lighter hand to achieve that (true of most pigmented formulations). It stayed on well for eight hours before fading noticeably.
