Clinique Blushing Blush in Cupid

Blushing Blush.... Silly name.  Thankfully it’s a rather lovely product which makes up for the daft repetition in the title. I picked this up on my honeymoon and I just realised I never got around to swatching it here! These blushes cost £18.50 so they ain’t cheap and you get 6g of product. I do love the boxes that Clinique products come in. Look at the pretty!

The actual packaging is nice to look at but not entirely practical. The bottom section is clear but the main section is mirror like metal. It’s a nightmare to keep it finger print free. You get a useless brush and a very handy mirror.

There is a faint shimmer in the pan but I don’t find that it really transfers to my cheeks which suits me down to the ground. It’s a gorgeous soft pink rose. Pigmentation certainly isn’t lacking but it’s not scarily vibrant like, for example, an Illamasqua blush. It blends like a dream and lasts all day. It certainly has the quality to match the price tag. 

The shade range in Phuket airport wasn’t huge but the other shades I spotted seemed a bit too frosty for me. If I found another in this semi matte/ satin finish I’d happily buy it x
