I got this at a make up sale a few months ago just to see what it was like. I was drawn in by the 'Smart Shade' products. It was pretty average really. It didn't really show up too well and i had to keep layering it to get a good color. Too much effort for minimal color. No thanks!

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 brought this product because i thought looked lovely! The blush is aesthetically pleasing. You can see the contents through the see-through lid, and the blush is a light col our, with bright pink polka dots!
I also brought it because i thought it would be easy to apply, and need minimal effort and time and I was right. Yes this blush is easy to apply. What more is it has a mirror and brush in the bottom section of the compact, so easy to apply when your on the go, and convenient to take with you in your handbag. However, that is all the positives i can say about this product.
I was honestly really disappointed. The outcome is very minamilistic, and i have to use quite a bit in order to achieve any colour.
Another negative is the more blush i use, the more glittery my cheeks become, and it does not look good when all you can see is glitter and no colour!
This blush looks pretty, and is designed well, but unfortunately, that's where all the positives end. The blush is not effective and so I would not recommend!
