Defy is described as a "smoky taupe satin." It's a dark, cool-toned taupe that leans more gray than brown with a matte finish. In the pan, there are very tiny micro-shimmers, but it appears matte on the skin. This was the worst performer in the entire palette with respect to the pigmentation: it was a drier, powdery shade with semi-sheer color payoff. It was a total pain to work with, as it looked splotchy and uneven applied. It started to fade after seven hours of wear. See comparison swatches / view dupes.

The secret to the new formula is Urban Decay’s Pigment Infusion System™, a vehicle for color that holds tightly to pigment and gives the formula its glide. The proprietory blend of ingredients allows color to weave itself through the formula resulting in insane color payout, color that stays on your lids, and sparkle that doesn’t fall. The amazing technology works for every shade and finish. Every Urban Decay shade is silky, blendable, and stays put.
