Buff Titanium is a warm, muted off-white with excellent hiding power, designed to deliver flat, velvety colour without relying on fillers or added whites. Packaged in a 15 ml (0.50 fl oz) metal tube, it retains creamy, buttery handling straight from the tube and dilutes predictably with water for washes and softer edges.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eHow does Buff Titanium perform for solid coverage and layering?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBuff Titanium provides immediate, opaque coverage when applied directly from the tube, making it ideal for masking underlayers or creating solid areas of colour.
