The packaging on these is clear pink plastic with an orchid printed on the top. There’s also a mirror on the inside. They’re quite sturdy, so safe to carry around in your handbag.
They come in two finishes, matte and glow. The difference is that the glow finish has a slight shine.
I bought five of the matte finish blushes, Dark Web, Firewall, Flower.ai, Hotspot and Petal.jpg. Firewall is described as a sunset orange. Hotspot is described as a fire pink-red. DarkWeb is described as a bright berry. Flower.ai is described as a vibrant pink. Petal.jpg is described as a warm lavender. I’d say those descriptions are pretty spot on even on my olive undertone.
As you can see they’re not as strong on the skin as they are in the pan.
Here’s the thing, I’m not a huge fan of these. I fell out of love with cream blushes a little while back and was hoping these would renew it. However, I find these quite hard to blend. They’re very much better-applied with a finger and the brush that was released at the same time isn’t the best option.
The darker ones are also very very pigmented and come out really deep on my skin, so if you’re not pale you’ll love them. I, on the other hand, have to be very careful.
They also being cream only tend to last as long as my base does. So if I’m having a really oily day they don’t last long.
There’s nothing wrong with these blushes but for me, they’re not worth $22.
If you’d like to get them they’re available at Lime Crime for $22.
