Flattering colors [SEP] I was afraid that these two colors would be too dark for my olive skin but to my amazement they are the perfect compliment. I wouldn’t recommend it for fair skin but if you’re tan or have an olive or medium complexion, these colors are great. I use the darker shade for contour under my cheekbones and the brick/blush color make your cheeks, chin, nose, and wherever else you place it look kissed by the sun. The colors last a long time and are highly saturated so you don’t have to keep brushing it on several times. A little goes a very long way. The only “nit picky” downside is that the compact is difficult to open. I can live with that and hopefully it will loosen up with time.
