A CREAM BLUSH FOR AUTUMN?
I hear the words “cream to powder” and I usually scrunch up my nose and say it’s not for me. My theory is if I want it cream I’ll use cream and if I want it powder I’ll use powder. Simple.
But when this new Benefit cream to powder blusher appeared on my desk I wanted to give it a fair trial, without any pre-judgment. I quickly oo’d and aa’d at the cute, magnetic packaging then I mmm’d at the delicious pomegranate and peach scent. Seriously, it smells incredible.
Applied with my fingers I found this to be a bit hard to work with, but when I used my Real Techniques Contour Brush it blended out beautifully. So I treated it almost like I would a powder blush but instead of that powdery finish this one looks moisturising on the skin. Majorette is quite a bright peachy orange and it really perks up the skin. It’s not a shade I would have gravitated towards during the colder months but it actually really compliments slightly paler skin tones.
Benefit also recommend wearing this under your foundation which I’m yet to try. Have you ever worn a cream blush under your foundation? Have you tried Majorette?
