The other week when I was shopping at NYX I decided to grab one of their Rouge Cream Blushers. The color I got is called Red Cheeks and is a red pink. I love a blusher that really stands out which is why I went for this one.
I do find that cream blushers do take a bit of getting used to, especially if you are used to powder blushers. You also have to use them a bit differently too. With powder blushers you can apply them straight after powdering your foundation, with creams it is best to apply them before powdering to stop any patchiness.
As for pigment, this blusher has a good amount of it and blends out nicely. You don't have to use a lot to get the color to show up on your cheeks and once you set it with your powder it does a good job of staying on all day without fading.
It may look quite bright in the packaging, but it comes out a nice pink red color and doesn't look that bright on, although it can be built up if you really like your cheeks more dramatic.
I've never tried a cream blusher before but I would love to try this.
ReplyDeleteIt's definitely a good one to try x
DeleteI've had a cream blusher before and really loved it. I found the staying power pretty good as well. I have been dying to try out the NYX brand and have just found out that there's a stand nearby me. My initial purchases were already made up, but the lure of another cream blusher is calling.
ReplyDeleteAlso, how amazing is that lilac lipstick!? Where is it from?

DeleteIt's a nice colour. I must admit I can't get on with cream blushers at all x
ReplyDeleteCreams can be tricky. I find they are much easier to use if you apply them before powdering x
