Smashbox In Bloom Cream Cheek Duo
I've been wanting a cream blush for a long time now. It just slipped my mind until I saw it in the store. I have combination skin, making my cheeks a bit dry. I thought that having a cream blush can actuslly help to make my cheeks look less flaky. But I remembered thsat cream blush + a dry skin is a major error. Cream blush can emphasize dry and flaky skin even more. So what I did is to make sure that my cheeks are completely moisturized before putting any make-up, including this blush.
The effect of this cream blush on a moisturized face is exceptional. I love how natural and fresh it looks when blended correctly. More than that, you get two beautiful colors in one container. Both colors are matte, which I love in a blush (maybe because I used to only have shimmer types of blush). Both colors are very wearable (peach and meium pink) and complements almost any skin tone.
I have been using this everyday for a week now, and am loving it. A ilittle goes a long way. What I usually do is, I dip a finger on the color of my choice; then dab it on my cheeks. I first lightly blend it our using my fingers, then completely blend it with a blush brush. It gives an instant natural flush.
I just didn't like the packaging because it was very plastic-y. The cover is just a clear plastic thsat you can easily remove with a slight turn. I prefer cosmetics packaging that has the look that it was really given a lot of thought into. I sometimes , or most of the time, get swayed because of the packaging! But I didn't regret buying theis Smashbox cream blush. Even with its very simple packaging, the color, and quality is just superb!
