The formula is almost the same as the original, I would say that the only difference in texture is that this one is a little thicker, but it is still very hydrating and leaves a glow. The difference in composition is that this one has a mineral ingredient, which also gives the pink color. For me, who has very fair skin, the color worked very well, it disguised dark circles and evened out the skin tone, however, it probably won't work for darker skin, it will look whitish.
