This is the most recent blush I’ve bought and the only reason I purchased it was because it was cheap. I’ve read about reviews about this particular blush in makeupalley and some have compared it Nars Orgasm. I’ve never used or tried N.O. nor I was planning to because I knew with my skintone it wouldn’t really show. So w.t.h. I went and bought this one anyway. My first initial reaction when I got this was ‘…okay this is too light.’ The next day I went out and tried it with my Blusche blush brush. I was correct it barely showed up on me, but when I smiled there very nice shimmers and it naturally enhanced my cheek bones and I did a 180 turn and decided that this is a cool blush. I’m not into the ‘au naturelle’ makeup look so I combine this with my Jordana Sienna blush which is a matte tan shade, with this two mixed it gives a nice light bronzy glow which I can’t seem to imitate with my other bronzers.

Packaging is not so nice. The lid is flimsy and if you try to bring this blush out with you and place it in your makeup pouch there’s a huge possibility that it’s gonna come off and  when that happens, say hello to ‘mess’. I might not repurchase even if it comes available again to me, I do prefer peachy reds/pinks/browns as blush color.
