unexpectedly pretty color [SEP] i am already a fan of josie marans color stick in rosy which i purchased at sephora late in i still have half of it left and expect i will run out of it sometime in mid what a way to stretch a dollar i saw this color love which is not available in the store and was attracted to what appears to be more of an earthy rich and darker color than rosy i ordered it and it arrived yesterday i was disappointed to find a pale mauvish color and did not have high hopes for how it would look on me as i have never liked mauve colors on me this morning i tried it anyway fully expecting to hate it within about minutes i noticed the most natural looking vibrant bloom in my cheeks attributable only to this i love the silky texture and it does not feel sticky or greasy on my face at all just pure healthy moisturizing thanks to the argan oil in it color that i am so glad to have it has more of a matte effect on the skin than does rosy which is more glossy and sheer both colors last all day on my face even in extreme heat and humiditythe price may seem expensive but considering my first one is still fresh and going strong after months it is actually a steal smells pleasant too rather like fresh berries just be aware that it is not going to be the dark berry color shown in the photograph
