My thoughts: Florentina, Florentina. What a beautiful name to give to this beautiful color.
Multi Pot is a newly released 3 in 1 product by Gabriel Cosmetics a month or so ago. This product can be used as a blusher, bronzer, lipstick, and eye shadow. Ok yes, I added that bronzer up, but it could add a little bit of shine and color for some of the people with lighter skin.
I personally used this product in all the four different ways. However, I was only successful and satisfied with one (sadly, I'm very picky).
The first way I hurriedly tried was as a lipstick. As some might know, I've been obsessed with natural/organic lipsticks recently. However, I was a little disappointed with the way it turned out.

The color is beautiful. It gives my lips that beautiful natural pinkish look. However. It's drying. I don't understand! The product is creamy, oily, moisturizing, but as soon as it touches my lips, it dries it out. I constantly had to provide some saliva to the upper and lower lips to moisturize. Oh, but look at that color. So beautiful...
It didn't really work out as an eye shadow either. This time, it wasn't because the product was drying. No. Contrary to that, it was really moisturizing. The product even lasted for a really long time, and I had absolutely no primer at all.

The texture was amazing, and it felt really smooth when applied. There was no smudging, no fall-outs, and easily blendable, but sadly, the color was a bit off for me. It was so bad that I couldn't even take a picture. It looked as if someone has hit me in both eyes...or that my eyes were having some kind of inflammation. Well, this could have been because of my own complexion. Many of the eye shadow colors don't work well on me, and I guess this one wasn't an exception either. However, if Multi Pot came in a different color that would work for my eyes, I would definitely get it as an eye shadow.
And yes, it was really successful as a blusher. I loved it. The color was perfect. It gave me that slight pink undertone that looked really natural, and it lasted for quite a long time. The product is again, easily blendable, creamy, and moisturizing. It barely felt like anything when applied on the face.
If you want to apply this as a bronzer, make sure you only apply the slightest little bit of product. It's not really a bronzer bronzer. It just adds some shine and color to the face. I personally think it would work best on people with really light skin.
Overall, this is an amazing product even though some parts didn't really work out for me. However, I really love it as a blusher, and I think I'm going to add this to my every day natural look blush.

I have texture problems with Gabriel products too, I wonder if it is just a dry skin thing? It's very pretty though!
