Codie

Codie is a muted, medium-dark orange-red with warm, rusty undertones and a creamy finish. It had rich, opaque color coverage that applied evenly and smoothly. The texture was light-to-medium in weight but didn't slide around easily, so it lasted for five and a half hours. The formula felt lightly hydrating to me.
