Seymone25,
Sad to hear u don't like Gold Deposit.
After I learned the best way to use it - it has become one of my favorites!
Sometimes I use the 181 small kabuki or the 187 brush to use it as a highlighter but I prefer to use either Lancome's stippling brush or the stippling brush from Crown brushes because they don't pick up that much color and give a heavy application.
I use it as a highlighter, under my brows or sometimes over my blush or as an eyeshadow or with other shadows.
You might want to experiment with it before you give up on it.
There are so many ways to wear Gold Deposit - I think it is one of the most versatile ones out there!
