Formula Overview

$40.00/0.16 oz. - $250.00 Per Ounce

The formula is supposed to "last all day long" that "reacts to skin's moisture level" and its pH to deliver a "customized color." The texture is described as "ultra-fine" and "lightweight" so that it blends well and feels weightless. It was also described as being buildable, and it had semi-sheer to medium, somewhat buildable coverage.

If you can dislodge the powder away from the surface, it's a decent blush; it seemed kind of flat and was more apt to emphasize skin texture/dryness compared to other blush formulas. Some shades blended out better than others, but the texture of all the blushes I tried in the range was incredibly firm, stiff, and prone to developing hard-pan within a handful of uses. I felt like I was constantly using a paper towel to break up that top surface to get product to apply and to swatch.

The "customized color" it gave me often was in the form of making the application seem patchier over time, which was more noticeable with medium and deeper colors against my skin tone. (Naturally, the closer your skin tone is to the blush color, the less apparent some patchiness will be.)

On my skin, they lasted around seven hours on me, so a little below average, but about half the shades turned patchier and seemed to "sink" into my pores over time.

From a texture standpoint, these are some of the worst high-end blushes I've come across. Usually, the textures at this price point are incredibly silky, smooth, and blendable, but wow, what a total miss.
