I am on a bit of a cream blush crusade at the moment, and have developed a long wish list for when I finish my Project 50 Pan challenge. I always thought that cream blushes would never work for me; as I have quite oily skin, turning into an oil slick is a common concern. But, as soon as I started trying out more and more cream face products, I realised that they were just perfect!
Definitely a new love.
I picked Libido up in My Funny Valentine's blog sale for a steal of a price. I must admit that I had a moment after buying it where I thought that I was crazy - it is one hell of a bright blush. I promise you it is not as scary as it looks!
What I Love
- Gorgeous shade that is perfect for my darker skin.
- Creamy and smoothes on like a dream.
- Highly pigmented.
- Extremely blend able
- Love the packaging and the name as well!
What I Don't
- Not a suitable shade for everyone
- It starts to melt quickly when temperatures rise (I do I've in scorching hot Brisbane though).
Where to Buy: Myer
Price: $42.00

Blended
Not a shade for the porcelain skinned, or the faint of heart. It is definitely a gorgeous shade nonetheless, and has become one of my favourite brights. Who doesn't love a little red after all?
What is the brightest blush that you own?
Hope you all have a great night! xx
It loots great once it's blended :)

Definitely! It tones it down a lot! xx
DeleteI am totally in love with cream blush. I prefer it over powder blush. I apply mine with my beauty blender and it makes it blend in much better than a brush. My brightest blush is Illamasqua Rude- it's a coral cream blush but quite pigmented.

I am definitely beginning to love them more than powder blushes as well! I haven't thought about applying with a beauty blender - I use a stippling brush or my fingers! xx
Deletei have not tried cream blush yet .. but i think i should try one now...<3
ReplyDeleteYou definitely should! I am sure that you will fall in love! xx
DeleteI love cream blushes so much and this one looks amazing! I actually love the bold orange colour! I really wish that illamasqua was more readily available where I live, but I have never seen anything in stores here!

DeleteWow! What a gorgeous colour! I don't think I would have the courage to wear it since I am so pale that I would look like a clown haha! Looks so pigmented that it will last quite a while :)
ReplyDeleteMy brightest blush is Nars Orgasm - hmmmm I think I need to be more adventurous with my makeup lol :)
Haha, I'm sure if you blended it properly, it would look great! It is definitely long lasting as well! xx
DeleteThat is a beautiful color that I could never wear! I bet it looks great on you though and you have left me very interested in cream blushes now.
ReplyDeleteHaha - definitely not a blush for everyone! Cream blushes are gorgeous, and so versatile as well! xx

DeleteThis looks gorgeous! :D I'm so tempted to buy it for myself, but I'd hate if it melted :( I guess that's one downside about cream products.
ReplyDeleteIt would look great on you! It doesn't melt too badly - so don't let that put you off too much! xx
Deleteit looks nice once its blended..
ReplyDeleteDefinitely! A lot easier to wear as well!
DeleteHaha, definitely not for porcelain-skinned! Gorgeous though. x
ReplyDeleteI really like your blog. Very bright in the pan but like the look blended in. I bought my first cream blush illamasqua seduce. I ordered on myeronline and it was only 25 and free shipping:)
