Rust (Base)

Rust (Base) is a light-medium pink with warm, yellow undertones and a matte finish. It had good color payoff but was moderately powdery, so it did sheer out and was hard to apply at full intensity without a tacky base (to give it something to really stick to) -- traditional primers were not enough. On me, the color lasted for seven and a half hours before fading slightly. Melt Cosmetics Pink Leather (LE, ) is brighter (95% similar). bareMinerals Fortune (LE, ) is lighter, warmer (95% similar).
