Meow Cosmetics’ Tutankhamen

In the pot, it looks like a simple enough straightforward burgundy. Applied, you see hints of the gold…except when it's applied dry, for some reason, then the burgundy takes a back seat and the gold shimmer is very prominent, right on top, like a layer of gilding. (I have no idea why it does this. I just think it's really cool.) It does not stain my skin, nor leave behind any sooty residue (which, sadly, happens with many metallic red shadows.)
