I really wanted to like this and the packaging is gorgeous but everything about this was a let-down...

The color is beautiful but it's very difficult to actually use for everything it advertised. I'll have to give it another try with a sponge but it's terrible as a blush when applied with my fingertips. The color doesn't blend well and the texture is very thin. Don't waste your time trying to use it as an eyeshadow/liner or lipstick. The compact is also difficult to open but that wouldn't have been too big of a problem if the product was actually good.
