I’m new to the spf-in-makeup thing and the foundation from this brand stings my eyes, but I’m glad I tried the blush because it’s beautiful! It makes me want to put on more SPF, and it makes it very easy to remember to incorporate sun coverage into my routine. I got the January cool pink one and it compliments my skin tone nicely. I’m trying the coral one next! Blends well and looks natural.

It's excellent. It seems very natural, if you have oily skin it will be good for you since it doesn't make your skin shiny and it is so concentrated that a drop on each cheek works.

amazing blush
amazing blush, absolutely worth the hype. the only problem is that you may feel compelled to buy many different shades, as i did.
