Almay Smart Shade Blush Review

I bought this product because I was after a 'pinky' blush as many of the other products I had used in the past were too browny/orange and looked unnatural for my skin tone. When you first start using this product, it seems like its not showing on the skin at all- it takes quite a few uses to start picking up the pigmentation. This product is good for me because I was after a real pink blush however if pink is not what you're after- this won't work because it is really pink. It also has quite a glittery shimmer to it which I don't mind but I guess depending on skin type/colouring, it might be really noticeable and off-putting. Having said all of this, it is not a product that I would buy again nor would I recommend it- I think there is a much better blush out there for me but I'll use this in the meantime

On the plus side- it looks cute and comes with a mirror inside the compact. I also got a free kabuki brush when I purchased so that was great

I received this a Free gift with purchase. Stoked! Because I am fair, this shows on my skin as a light pearl sheen. If the foundation is properly set etc it is very faint, howver if it goes onto a dewy dewy finish it tend to show up better. It has a nice pale pink colour within the sheen, and is subtle for work or "no make up looks". I wear just cause I have it but I dont think I will repurchase it again.

I got given this product from a friend and I'm not a big blush fan so I don't mind it as its not very strong. its does have a nice sheen to it so it is more of a pale highlight and very faint blush.
