Mountain hike
Lisa Eldridge Mountain Walk Invigorating flush ($ 34.00 for 0.5 oz.) Is a lighter, medium-dark berry with cool undertones and a semi-matte finish. The texture was light, thin and spreadable without being too runny or too dense.
It had a semi-transparent, buildable pigmentation with a very small amount; it was easier to use less and build up as desired as the recipe was easier to spread. The formula was applied to bare skin similarly to the foundation in that it doesn’t lift or move it. The color lasted a good eight hours before noticeably fading on my skin.
I asked a few readers if there were any issues squeezing the product out of the tubes, and most of them I had no issues, but Pink Poetry was difficult (and hasn’t improved) from the start.

Formula overview
$ 34.00 / 0.5 oz. – $ 68.00 per ounce
The formula is said to be buildable, although the brand recommends using the “smallest dot” to start with for a “translucent ‘flush inside’ effect”. It can be applied and blended with fingertips or a foundation brush. The finish is described as “natural, skin-like” that is not “too dewy or too dull”.
Of the colors tested so far, the formula can be built up from semi-transparent to largely opaque, and it was easy to apply more if necessary. The needle applicator allowed a lot of control, so that you could approach the “smallest” amount as recommended.
The texture was light, moderately emollient, and dried to a natural to soft matte finish; one shade appeared semi-matt (if not flat / dry) on my skin and the other was softer in the tube and therefore a little more watery on my skin. Apply the product evenly with your fingertip on bare skin or over the foundation and blend with little force. They tended to stand out for what was marketing, so they were more foolproof to work with.
It was a more transfer resistant formula. The blush lasted between eight and nine hours on me before it showed any signs of fading.
