Formula Overview

$9.00/0.33 oz. - $27.27 Per Ounce

The formula is supposed to have a "buildable" formula that yields a "radiant, naturally sculpted complexion." The consistency was lightweight, spreadable, and felt like a gel-cream texture that had an emollience to it but spread without lifting up base products. I had no trouble blending out the product using a fingertip or a brush, and it worked well over bare skin as well as on top of foundation.

It was quite spreadable, so while it might have seemed more semi-opaque coverage initially, it was semi-sheer to medium in practice and did require layering to build to more medium coverage. This formula lasted well for eight hours on me before showing signs of fading.
