I purchased these, many years ago. Being a makeup artist, I'll try so many products on the market, because that's just what we do. The low down- its affordable, its pigmentation is great, its glossy, the packaging is great, there is a wide selection of colours. The only downfall... it does not last long (but that is to be expected with lower end glosses) these worked great for creative makeup looks, because you can use it on the eyes and cheeks (and its just for the photos anyway, so you can retouch) but if you're looking for a long wearing gloss - this is not the one. :)
