formula overview
$7.50/0.074oz. – $101.35 per ounce
The formula is said to have a “silk-rich pigment” with a “miscible, soft cream-gel.” Most of the shades were fairly pigmented and very little product was needed to achieve full coverage. I found the finish on the shades to be quite glossy – they looked wet although they didn’t feel that way.
The texture was light, slightly emollient, but more of a cream-to-powder product as it did not feel overly smooth or wet when initially picked up or dried. The dry down was powdery in that it remained reasonably blendable and very flexible so it wasn’t smudge proof (like wiping your eyes) but had good longevity as there was no fading or wrinkling until after 9 hours of wear.
