Review for Revlon Powder Blush in 020 Tawny Peach

I got this Revlon blush in 020 Tawny Peach during a sale for 20% discount because my Clinique blush broke on me. I barely dropped it and it broke into a million pieces L! There were 2 shades I like, a pink one and a peach one; I think both were the 2 lightest ones. It wasn’t cheap, even after the discount it was a little pricey in my opinion (S$14 approx) so I just got one. 








To show you guys the colour I swatched it on a piece of clean tissue. (below)



Pros: 

This blusher contains no shimmer! I love anything non-shimmery and besides that I think that shimmery blushes just makes my face look..hmm I don’t know, overdone? Kinda like I’m going to prom or something. And I do get extremely oily on my nose and cheek area so shimmer + oil = Disco ball. A big nono. 

It is a very wearable colour, great peachy pink colour, not overly orange and not flashy at all. The blush stays on all day! Even after blotting it still looks amazing, probably a slight fading of colour but not drastic which deserves my thumbs up. Medium fallouts on pan which is good for a drugstore blusher. 

Cons:

The container! Oh my god! I get so pissed about it. The lock is so hard to open I always have to use a scissors to push the lid up which is so troublesome. It doesn’t bother me as much as it did when I first got it but for picky people who focus on product packaging, this is fail. Or maybe I got a defective one (boo!).

The colour isn’t as pigmented as I hope it would be (extremely sheer), so I have to go over and over it. I will not recommend people with medium or darker skin tones as this might not show up. The colour goes on a little light and then deepens in colour. So do use a light hand and wait a little while for the colour to deepen on your cheek. 


Yadda Yadda:

Available at Watsons stores, Guardian pharmacies, BHG and SaSa. I bought mine at Watsons for S$14 (approx) after a 20% discount. Net Weight: 5.1g. Will I repurchase? Probably not, there are many other better quality blushes I want to try. Have you guys tried this yet? Share your thoughts!

Review for Canmake Shading Powder in 01

Review for Canmake Shading Powder in 01

I’ve decided to do a review on Canmake’s Shading Powder in 01. I bought it quite long ago, about 3 months ago? For those who are not familiar with Canmake, it is a Japanese brand that is available in Japan, Taiwan, Korea and Singapore. I bought it after watching Stylesuzi’s video about contouring in which she used the same shading powder. It looked so amazing on her I told myself I have to get it the next day! I use the shading powder for contouring my face, nose and use it as an eyeshadow.







Swatch




Pros:

The shading powder is not too dark for my fair skin which happens to a lot of contouring powders and bronzers. It can double up as an eyeshadow which I really like to do on days when I don’t want to wear eyeshadows yet have slight depth in my eyelids. Lasting power is around 4-5 hours. It comes with a small brush which I don’t use. The powder is matte, absolutely no shimmer at all which is a huge plus since I dislike shimmers on my face. Plastic compact container is not flimsy, opens and locks really well. The shading powder applies on very smoothly, very blendable and buildable for a dense eyeshadow.

Cons:

This shading powder does fade over time (quite quickly actually), I was hoping it not to lose vibrancy that fast so I was quite disappointed. So do take note that the colour lightens in a short span of time. Has a very mild powdery scent which I think will not irritate the nose unless you are extremely sensitive to smell.

Yadda Yadda:

Canmake Shading Powder is available at Watsons, John Little, BHG and SaSa. I bought mine at Watsons for S$22.90 (approx). Will I repurchase? Probably not, if there are other better and cheaper alternatives. Ratings: 3.5/5 stars. There are sales at Watsons that has 20% discount for the shading powder so do try them and tell me your opinion!

Love,
