Desert Aura
ColourPop Desert Aura Glowing Lip ($8.00 for 0.06 oz.) is a brighter, medium orange with moderate, warm undertones–not too yellow or red-based–paired with a lightly pearlized cream finish.

- Medium to semi-opaque, buildable coverage
- Creamy, almost melted during application
- Lightweight, comfortable to wear, hydrating
- Decent wear (3 to 4 hours on average)

Formula Overview
$8.00/0.06 oz. - $133.33 Per Ounce
The formula is supposed to have a "glowy" finish that is hydrating and gives buildable color with "buildable, glowy shine." They managed to feel more velvety and glide-on rather than melty and glossy, despite the end result having a moderate about of shine and glow. As a result, the formula was more like a balmy lipstick than a glossy lip balm.
The coverage ranged from semi-sheer to semi-opaque but were generally in the more medium, buildable range, which was in line with the brand's marketing. They were fruity in scent but had no discernible taste. The shades applied evenly, felt comfortable to wear, and typically lasted three to four hours with moderate hydrating.
