beautiful but lightly pigmented [SEP] the color is beautiful and it provides the perfect pop of brightness with a more neutral smokey eyebut you knew there was a but coming right it is not super pigmented and you have to go over it several times to get a good pop since it is lighter it is not ideal for a winged eye either i usually just flick it out on the edge a little but do not do a full on wing i would say the color trends more toward violet with red undertones than purple with blue it does not bleed or run and for the price i think it is a good choice if you are looking for a little spark with your eye make up routine
