Overall, I am very satisfied with it and did not expect it to be this good. Because it is a cream product, it works well as a base for powder blushes as well. When set with some powder, it stays intact for 8 hours without any touch-ups or going patchy, which is excellent for me, if you have normal skin, then it should last longer. On its own, it stays well for 5- 6 hours on me after which I notice fading. I have oily skin and as the day passes, it looks slightly shiny and dewy after 4-5 hours of wear, but that is not much of a problem as setting it with a light layer of translucent powder sets is completely and prevents it from getting shiny. I have never felt it feeling oily or greasy on my skin, nor does it accentuate my pores. Although ELF claims that they have cream to powder finish, it does not set to a powder finish but at the same time does not have the dewy finish that cream blushes generally have, it just looks very natural. The texture is extremely creamy, very soft to touch and blends like a dream, effortlessly! For application, fingers work very well for blending, a stipple blush also works equally well and overall application is very easy. I would suggest using a Q-tip for picking up the product for hygienic reasons. They are highly pigmented and you just need to touch the pan, as one can easily go overboard with it. They both can also be mixed and applied together □ Both the shades have absolutely no shimmer in them and are very much buildable. It gives a great definition when used under cheekbones. Because it has no red undertones, it does not look muddy at all. It will work very well for lighter skin tones though. It works well for light contouring for me and also is quite good for bronzing, but the color is not dark enough for extreme contouring like Kim K of course □ and may not work for darker skin tones. The bronzing cream is a warm shade of brown and has neutral undertones.
