When looking for beauty products it can be a bit hard to get something that’s good value for money. You don’t want to spend a fortune but you want the product to work well!
That’s where Colourpop’s blushers come in to save the day. Not only are they absolutely affordable (sometimes the website offers free international shipping if you spend over a certain amount, and that’s when I stock up on all the good stuff!) but they are also lightweight yet durable. You don’t need to apply a lot to get rosy cheeks that last all day! This also means that the product will last a long, long time.
I love Colourpop’s blushers, and I think you will too!
I own Colourpop's blush in Pie (how cute is the name?!) and highlighter in Wisp. Pie is an electric hot pink blush that looks freaky in the pot but, if sparingly used, provides a very natural blush on my dark olive skin. Wisp is a gorgeous gorgeous GORGEOUS goldy, bronze highlighter that is perfect and works differently on all skin tones. I cannot express how in love with the two shades I am. Apart from the fantastic range of shades Colourpop has throughout all their products, what good are the shades if the quality is [insert bad word]? Well fear not! Colourpop emit both beautiful and quality products at very decent prices.
I got my blush for $8USD, which is around $10 or so in New Zealand. The consistency of the blush is really interesting. In fact, it's almost like a putty texture. Very soft and moldable in the pot, press too hard and you'll dent it. Dented it? Then press around to mold it back. It's a funny texture, but super fun. It feels super smooth to touch and blends great once applied to the cheeks. The colour is easily buildable if required.
I too got my highlighter for $8. The highlighter is so, so "soft" to the touch. The product is super delicate as very little goes a long way. All you need to do is skim the surface of the product and you should have a tonne on your fingers. Like all Colourpop products, because the consistency is interesting, you shouldn't have too much of a harsh hand on the product as you will dent the product. The highlighter is super easy to blend and adds the perfect sheen to where I apply it. Definitely my favourite highlighter I own.
All in all, I definitely recommend Colourpop cheek products. Great shades, great quality, great price.
Tips: Use your fingers to tap on some blush to the cheeks where you want it then blend it out with a fluffy brush. For the highlighter, I recommend to again, use your fingers. Apply and blend with your fingers with ease.
