Can't believe that I finally own a Chanel blush! This is a birthday gift from my friend Yerra plus a cute Charm Retractable Kabuki brush (review to follow).
PRODUCT INFO FROM CHANEL:Unique powder blusher offers buildable coverage, from natural to dramatic, and imparts a flattering radiance to the cheeks. Remarkably silky texture ensures easy application of seamless color. Applied high on the cheekbone, or near the eyes, it instantly "lifts" and softens the face for a more youthful look.
RETAIL PRICE: Php 2,350.00 or about $53.
WEIGHT : 4 grams
SHADES : Available in more than 5 shades.
PROS:
* sheer but buildable color
* I only need to swipe my brush twice to get the color I want.
* the blush looks baked but the texture is smooth and finely milled
* my face looks glowing when I use this!
* it looks so bright on the pan but looks natural when applied. I love how the shade compliments my NC20 skintone.
* comes with a velvet pouch and a wide mirror
* cute packaging
CONS:
* the rose scent is kinda bothering
* brush is scratchy
* I read this is LE (limited edition)?
TIPS:
* The blush/compact looks fragile so be careful not to drop this!
* Apply blush in thin layers to avoid looking like a clown. Start from the apples of your cheeks then slowly blend upwards.
* It is also important to use the right kind of brush in applying. I noticed that goat hair easily picks up pigments compared to the synthetic ones but I find the former a bit scratchy.
* Choose a color that compliments your skintone, in my case I noticed my face looks muddy when I use Peach blushes but I look good in Pinks and peachy-pinks.
ADDICTION FACTOR:
I love this but I'm worried coz Chanel blushes are expensive! haha
