This is more of a rich highlighter than an all-over shade for me. The base color is softer, the finish is pretty strong but not a hard-metallic effect. There have been a few similar colors from indie vendors, but no exact matches. The closest is My Pretty Zombie’s Ham and Bananas Hollandaise, and it has a deeper and more opaque base and a deeper-gold shimmer layer.

Blending this one removes a lot of the shimmer effect and sheers out the base, so I get the best effects when blending it into a softer neutral or into a color that matches my own skintone.
