This blush is very reasonably priced like most cover girl products. Worked good and awesome natural colors. Lasts a long time and blends well.

First, after reading about this product online, I thought it would be creamier given the image on their website which makes it appear more like a cream (see image to right) compared to the firmer blush I found in my compact.

I was disappointed in several things about this, first the small range of colours, all fairly dark (but you have to consider the white swirl which makes it difficult to know which shade will suit you and I didn’t find the white swirl did much as far as toning down the colour). Secondly, the blush, which I have used a total of 4 times is cracking away at the edges of the white swirl which will give you an idea of how firm the blush is. The sponge does not seem designed for a blush of that consistency either, when swiping some off the compact it clogs in the sponge so I have been using a different sponge to apply it with a little moisturiser on the sponge to help with the consistency.

So I wasn’t overly impressed from the beginning, however, once I mixed with a little lotion to make it creamier on the sponge, it did apply well with a sun-kissed look so I would probably use up the rest but would certainly not spend $18 to buy another one.
