I believe it’s a little bit extra matte than I’d prefer it, and if I’m going in too heavy, I actually battle to mix it out. A small quantity and a light-weight layer blended shortly is one of the simplest ways for me, and I prefer it if I’m cautious about how I apply it.

I really feel prefer it dries down as I’m making use of it so it’s finest to make use of small quantities and mix shortly.
