This color and formula are awesome. Not super sticky, and really pigmented. I wouldn't normally go for a shade like this, but I decided to give it a try because of my genetics. I'm stuck with dry, purple greyish taupe dark circles on my lids and under eyes forever. I've made peace with them (no choice, really), but I've always struggled to find eyeshadow that works on me, since the skin there is so thin, and the more product I layer on, the drier and more textured it looks. This one is really useful. I don't know how much white base it has in it, but it's not overpowering to the point of looking ashy. I honestly don't know why eyeshadows (or versatile creams) like this aren't more widely available in these colors. Most people I know don't have perfect eyelids, so this is just an objectively more gentle formula, one that gives washes of color that look flattering on every skin tone. We already get washes of color on the lips with lip stains, so please, brands, consider making more pigment balms that give those of us with insane dark circles and dry, textured skin under our eyes the ability to look healthy too, haha.

Seriously, love this shade. I feel like a fabulous bee.
