So, I have been using Soft Ochre for years, but I wanted to try this one & I think I still prefer Soft Ochre.
Painterly has a lot of pink undertones to it & I have a yellow undertone. I also find that it is not as opaque as Soft Ochre. It does not provide me with a completely blank canvas.
It still makes eyeshadow pop & last longer without creasing. I don't think it's bad, I just think it works better for fairer complexions.
