The formulation is meant to have a “considerably powder like end” with out being “sticky or greasy” paired with a “moussey cream” consistency. The model advises to make use of little or no as it’s an “extremely pigmented product” that’s designed to be “sheered out” and used “onto naked pores and skin or on high of different base make-up.”
It’s crucial to make use of the smallest quantity; it could be even higher to select up product with a stippling brush gently and swirl as soon as on the again of 1’s hand to make sure there’s not an excessive amount of on the brush–the formulation is THAT pigmented!

The consistency felt creamy, dense however not overly agency within the pot, and it was straightforward to use and mix out on naked pores and skin or on high of basis. I favored to use with fingertips as I felt prefer it prolonged my working time and gave me the flexibility to have the product on one fingertip after which use a clear fingertip to diffuse and mix.
The formulation dries right down to a satin end, not fairly matte however not dewy. It regarded very “skin-like” because the product sat seamlessly on my pores and skin, let my pores and skin’s pure end come by means of, and was extra transfer-resistant because of the extra noticeable dry down. I most popular working one cheek at a time as a result of it does turn into tougher to mix as soon as it dries down, however I had sufficient working time with out feeling rushed (per cheek).
The shades wore between seven and eight hours on me earlier than fading a bit, however they’d a good fade and did not slide/migrate as they wore down.
One factor I observed was that a number of shades appeared to have a hotter base once I did the sheerer/extra blended out swatch, however they appeared much less apt to show hotter once I utilized to my cheeks (see Fervor swatched vs. utilized).
