Formula Overview
$39.00/0.11 oz. - $354.55 Per Ounce
The formula is supposed to deliver "high color, glazed shine, and balmy nourishing care up to 8 hours." It has a smooth, balmy consistency that glided on comfortably, melted a bit but didn't totally soften to the point where it made it really difficult to apply or keep fairly even.
For as glossy and emollient as the finish was, most shades went on evenly and didn't settle too noticeably into lip lines. They delivered semi-opaque to opaque coverage that lasted for four hours before fading away noticeably (but evenly). The hydrating effect lasted longer, and these did feel moisturizing while worn and for a little after.
They had a sweet, fruity scent but no discernible taste.

Scenic Brown with my HG Nyx Earthtone SLP would be the JUICIEST nude lip for me ever!
I just find these to be too patchy and the colour doesn’t seem to show up much on the lips, even though they are probably quite comfortable to wear.
A lovely glossy nude lip, Scenic Brown will be coming home with me.
Showcasing Nude got my attention when it came out but now I am glad I waited- looks a lot lighter and pinker than I thought!
