BareMinerals’ November

In the pot, this looked like a dead ringer for Concrete Minerals' Smut. Applied…it softened quite a bit, and cooled down also. The end result was a dusty medium-light violet with a bit of shimmer. The color is attractive, and the payoff is decent, but it's very much not what I expected from seeing the color in the pot. The dusky red tones were all but absent! I was really looking forward to seeing how this swatched. Unfortunately, it is not what is implied. It's a nice enough color, a greyed light violet, but it's nothing strikingly unique even from among Bare Escentuals' own lineup.
