You add a drop of the Stay All Day primer which is a clear liquid into the tin provided. Then blend with the Foil formula until you have the intensity you like.

They’re already available on the Sephora US site and will be coming to the UK in due course. I’ll alert you as soon as I know when. The line up has 12 shades (check out Metallic Emerald).
